Remarkable Record During the Inau-
guration Period.

Chief Engineer VIM. T. Belt of the fire
department called on Commissioner Mac
farland this morning and reported that dur
Ing the inauguration period there was but
one alarm, which was turned in because of
lace curtain catching fire. This is con-
sidered as a remarkable record.
Commissioner Macfarland complimented
Chief Belt, and asked that official to thank
the fremen for him, for the careful, faith
full and efficient manner in which they per-
formed their duties during the Inaugural
ton. Firemen were stationed on the street
on the reviewing stands, and in the pen
sion office, and We're on the alert at all
times for any possible confiagration.

VIOLATIONS OF SMOKE LAW.
One Defendant Fined $2o - Another
Case continued.

There were two alleged violations of the
smoke law reported this morning when the
Police Court was called 10 order.
The case against Robert L. Middleton, SUI
perintendent of the Georgetown Gaslight
Company was first called. and upon motion
of the defense was continued until tomor-
row.
John Mel. Dodson, proprietor of the
Cooley lime kiln. pleaded not guilty to the
charge against him, and Inspector Wollard
of the health department took the stand.
He stated that he had the stack attached to
the kiln under observation on February q,
1905. and that dense black smoke was emit
ted therefrom from 2.O1 to 2:05 pm. and
from 2:19 to 2:20 pm. on that day.
Mr.. Dodson testified in his own behalf and
asked Judge StRider what he wanted him to
do. He was informed that his side of the
case would be heard and he told the court
that he had spent So. 600 last year installing
smoke devices and about $1,000 this year,
and that the emissions of Objectionable
smoke had been less and less.
This little lime kiln is my only means of
support, judge. and l have had to borrow
the money'to install the devices, which has
not been repaid and / believe this is a most
cruel and unjust law said Mr. Dodson in
conclusion
Judge Strider answered that the court
room was not the place to argue that ques-
ton, and that Congress would have to be
appealed to. He finished by asking Mr..
Dodson If he had ever been in court before.
NO SIR was the prompt response.
3. Assistant Corporation Counsel Pugh at
this moment interrupted with the exclama-
ton, "Oh, yes, he has"
The court was then informed by the as
siStant corporation counsel that Mr.. Dodson
had forfeited collateral before on account
of an alleged violation of the smoke law,
and the defendant admitted he had, though
he had not appeared in court.
Judge Strider said THE fine will be 500
and that amount was promptly paid by Mr..
DodSon. --.ss "a.

SEVENTEENTH INAUGURATION.
Prof. Cameron Has Witnessed Every
Ceremony Since That of 1871.

Prof. Henry c. Cameron, professor emeri-
tus of Greek at Princeton, watched the in
auguration of President Roosevelt on Sat
urady, making the seventeenth consecutive
inauguration that he has attended in Wash
ington. There are probably only few men
in the United States who have such rec
ord. Prof. Cameron small boy watched
the Inauguration of William Henry Harri-
son in 1S41, and he has never missed an in
auguration since. He is strong and active.
He said at the second Mckinley Inaugural
ton that he never expected to see another
inaugural ceremony, but he watched Roose-
welt indicted into office, and looks so hardy
despite his disclaimer, that he Is likely
enough to be present when Roosevelt's sue
ceSsor takes the oath in 1909.

SUSPECTED OF INSANITY.
Two Persons in Custody Because OF
Their Peculiar Conduct.

Otto GreenwaH, who called at the mouse
of detention Saturday morning and was
held on suspicion of being insane, is under
treatment at the Washington Asylum IN
order that the physicians may have
chance to observe him. When he entered
the house of detention he expressed sur
prise at being in laundry and said ne
had some wire beds outside.
I'm cold he said to an officer. you
know I've been watching about the White
House all the morning and I'd like to get
warm
Later he told the officers that he left the
insane asylum at Norristown, Pa, Friday
morning at O'Clock and reached this city
that night. He did not pay his fare on the
railroad and did not have even pocket
handkerchief on him when the police
searched him. The police were informed
that Greenwall was formerly clerk in the
Interior Department and that his mind be-
came troubled over patent for making
wire furniture. He had lived in this city
near 10th and 1 streets 1t is the intention
of the police to communicate with the au-
thorities of the institution at NorristoWn.
A colored woman named Mary Jones
called at the White House yesterday after
noon and said she wanted to see the Presl-
dent. Her conversation gave Policeman
Jamson the impression that her mind was
affected and he arrested her She told the
police that her home is in Florida and later
she said she lived at 157 West SD street,
New York. Her neghbors, she stated, were
villifying her and she thought the Presi-
dent might be able to right her wrongs.
The woman carried a bag of papers and
said some of them were deeds to property.
She thought the Presidents signature to
the papers might make them valuable.
Mrs. Jones had return ticket to New
York and will probably be returned there.
