revolver from William Harris, was brought
into the Police Court today and arraigned
on grand jury warrant charging him with
larceny from the person. He pleaded guilty
and Immediately afterward Judge Mills
fixed the bond at $500. In default OF the

When awakened by Officer Cats yester-
day morning Harris complained that he
had been robbed of $40 in money and re-
yOlver. He gave a meager description OF

out to locate him. Later in the day the
officer picked out Mack from a crowd of
colored men in a saloon near where the
robbery had occurred, and took him to the
station house.
Mack denied the crime at first, but later
admitted his guilt. He told what he had
done with the revolver and 1t was recov-

SUFFERS FROM DELUGE
BAD CONDITIONS REPORTED AT
THE POLICE COURT.
Rain Causes Inconvenience to Officers
and Others-San1tary Conditions
Improved in Part.

The Police Court building on 18th street
suffered from the deuge of water in the
city today. and the rain forced the judges
and others who have occasion to use the
building to the conclusion that 1t Is not en-
tlrely sanitary The cellar floor was COW
cred with several inches of water and dur
ing the rain the water could be seen passing
into the basement In considerable auanti-
ties
Several weeks ago when Judges Kimball
and Scott visited the building to make plans
for converting it into quarters for the Po-
lice Court. they discovered that there was
dampness in the cellar. The condition was
promptly reported to the authorities In the
District building, with the request that the
matter be remedied. AS a result cave
troughs We're put on the building. but that
work WIS almost nulified, In the opinion of
many, by having the spout from the house
empty at the corner of the building where
the water could conveniently flow into the
cellar.
1t was suggested, also, that the sewer
would occasionally back up. causing The
water to accumulate in the basement when
there was a rain. That this Is one cause
of the trouble was shown today, in the
opinion of the officials when from the eel
lar stairs the water could be seen bubblng
through the cement covering over the sewer
in one part of the basement
'If the inspectors of the District building
take look at that cellar the police judge
will have to fine himself for failing to prop
erly connect his premises with the sewer"
was the suggestion of one who saw the
conditions. Sergt. Lombardy, who was
among the first in the building this mora
ing said the coat which he had left there
was as wet as the one he had worn today
in the rain.
The side entrance, by which the prisoners
are taken into the building. was covered by
about eight inches of water this morning.
Deputy United States Marshal Johnson
says that the prisoners were compelled TO
wade In water over their shoe tops This
is attributed to the lack of drainage in the
passage.

AN OXEN CAVALRY CORPS.
Duty on the Island of Madagascar.

The oldest cavalry in the world Is maintained on the west coast of Mad aeascar by Governor General J. c. Gall lieni. While the French troops in that country are ample to meet the occa- sional revolutionists, the governor gen. eral makes use of native talent for po- lice work in out-of-the-way localities, says the New York Herald.
 On the west coast of Africa is a tribe of natives. possibly radically connected with the Hovas. who arc known as the Sakalova, the most war like tribe of the country. The natives in imitation of French troopers, or ganized an oxen cavalry corps. under command of French officer. They are armed with modern long g-handlsd iances, or spears, and side arms Their uniform Is khaki, with skull caps. They ride barefooted, without stirrups, sitting on their equipment, einched like a saddle, with cords made of the native fiber plant, and sort of bridle of the cord. passing through the nose of the beast.
 The oxen are neither slow or scared, and 1t Is assumed would create havoc with their horns among horse cavalry.
