POLICE MONKEY WITH BUzz Saw
send Excise Gases to Night Court Against
Orders.

Despite an order from COMMISSIONS
Bingham that desk lieutenants must not
send excise cases to the night police court
the police kept bringing them in at last
nights session. Finally Inspector Russell
sent word to Magistrates kernochan and
House that any sergeant or lieutenant
who violated the Commissioners order
would nave charges preferred against
him.
Magistrate kernochsn. who was On the
bench last night, and Magistrate House.
president Of the board, h sat with
him as a visitor, got the idea before the
session was far advanced that the police
had made up their mind TO disobey orders.
Twenty-Five excise cases were brought in
from eight or ten station houses before
10 o'clock, and as fast as they came in
Magistrate Kernochsn. advised 10y Magis-
trate House, sent them back to h station
houses.
There il no occasion for this sort Of
thing said Magistrate House. Bail has
been taken in these cases. the men are at
liberty, and that is all that is necessary.
They are for the day courts"
But, your Honor said Lieut.. Bill Ennis.
night court officer, bail was given in many
of those cases only until : o'cloc to-nigbt;
and il was too late To get III. cases before
the day courts"
Makes no difference" said Magistrate
House. Send them back. l shall ask
Magistrate Kernochan to ave the officers
make new arrests In every oRse and let the
men arrested get new bail"
Lieut.. Ennis t~elephoned TO Inspector Rus
sell n old him what was going on.
Il shall prefer charges against every
sergeant or lieutenant who has sent or who
sends an excise case TO the night court
said the inspector. It's a direct violation
of the Commissioners order"
The Board Of Magistrates will nod a
meeting next Friday to simplify the night
court situation. Thu Magistrates do not
want felony cases brought to the night
court, automobile eases. or any cases where
bail has been taken during the afternoon,
for hearings where the Ma gistrates can only
hole prisoners for the higher courts. The
night court should be for cases Of summary
jurisdiction, Magistrate House holds, and
In this he il backed up by Judge Whitman.
Inspector McCaferty had a talk with
Magistrate House about holding crooks
the police pick up at night, pickpockets,
thieves and the lice, saying he was afraid
that in the hurry OF things some badly
wanted men might be discharged n miss
Detective Bureau.
That's all right, " said Magistrate House.
Keep our crooks, inspector. Have Thorn
sent to the day courts; that's the place for
them,
Bv midnight there had been a total OF lao
cases disposed Of in the court. Only one
woman had been brought in for soliciting.
She was discharged.
OF the misdemeanor cases bailed in the
station and on which the desk lieutenants
fixed a time limit to 3 o'clock there were
t~wenty-six. Eight came from the Eldridge
street station, nine from MO Market,
Ave from East I2eth street, one from Old
Slip, two from the fremont station n
one from Bronx Park. The desk lieutenants
at these station houses will a some
explaining to do.

PUPS IN THIS CAT FAMILY.
Terry. Mascot OF the Life Savers. Mothers
O Mixed Lot.

James Hendsey reported yesterday
morning to Capt. William McMann Of the
Volunteer Life Saving Station at the foot
of Grand street that judging from the noise
Terry had established her family beneath
the station. Terry is the much beloved
mascot cat of the life AYERS.
Capt. Mann was not willing to believe this
for to his certain knowledge Terry was at
that moment caring for six kittens barely
a day old in the back room and could hardly
be expected TO lave another family in con-
cealment.
Az the subterranean wailing did not abate,
however. the life savers turned their atten-
ton TO mining. 500 a rich vein was struck.
but it was canine. not feline. Four puppies
still blind, were extracted after barely an
hours labor. The puppies were introduced
to Terry. who promptly adopted them.
Two puppies were sent away and four
kittens disposed OF in order that the tax
IN Terry's hospitality might not be too
heavy. The mixed family was in fine spirits
yesterday.
A stray dog which had been swapping at
persons who went near the place where
the puppies were found was killed on
Saturday in the belief that il was mad.
Now the life savers understand.

for INSTRUMENTATION Services.

Hur StrNtCrrs
BosroN. Aug. Following the opening
to-day Of the Old. south Meeting House
for public religious worship for the first
time In thirty years II liz probable that that
famous old church, crowded with historical
associations Of Colonial and Revolutionary
days. will be opened regularly for nou-de-
nominational services.
Announcement that SUCH a course had
been tentatively decided upon was made
by the venerable chaplain of the United
States Senate, DIR. Edward Everett Hale,
who spoke to a large audience at the re-
opening Of the old meeting house to-day.
Preaching from the same old pulpit and
using the same text ~The glory Of the latter
house shall be greater than the glory Of the
former" which DR.. Sewell used in dedi-
eating the building more than 200 years ago,
DIR. Hale In the course OF his sermon sug-
gested the permanent reopering OF che
church with a series Of Sunday dlsoourses
Of a scientific and educational nature, the
hrst Of which might be given by President
Eliot Of Harvard. Gov. Guild or Mayor
Fitzgerald.
OF the many historically famous build
ings of the city the Old South Meeting House
il probably the most familiar to the lovers
OF Boston, standing as it docs under the
shelter Of a skyscrsperin Washington street
From Colonial to modern times il was
used for public worship, but for nearly the
life Of a generation it has only served As a
museum and for occasional historical lee
lures, the last service being held there in
November, 1872, just before the great Bos-
ton fire.
