Wizard of Or" Jones frequently remarked
to his fellow prisoners: I'm SO nervous.
When Judge kimball threw the glare OF

honor was searching his memory to find
if he had ever had Jones before him in
the past tall policeman with stern
expression informed the court that the
prisoner had been drinking ''hogie man
rum yesterday and had frightened num-
Der of little girls almost into spasms by
gra bbing at them and yelling like a
Comanche. This on the public streets in

His Name Extracted.
| BY some process the mans name was
extracted from him as John Pechella The
searchlight had no apparent effect upon
his mobile countenance. 1t suddenly
dawned upon a court official that Pechella
could not speak English. and Headquar-
tiers Detective herman. who is something

! prisoner in a strange tongue. He speaks

America two years ago, and went first to
Pennsylvania and then to Baltimore. He
came to Washington recently looking for
work, but could not obtain employment

The wife of Turner Williams, colored.
mplained to the police last night that
Turner was raising fourteen kinds of fog
at their home. and that his flame lam
guage could be heard all over the neigh
| borhood On the wife's complaint Turner
was locked up.
In cour. this afternoon Mrs. Williams

in a melancholy tone of voice, Turner

Policeman Mahoncy, however, had an
| other tale to tell. He testified that
Williams was cursing his wife awful on
the street. and continued his profanity
after being placed under arrest.
The policemans argument was conclu-
sive and Turner was fined S., which his
wife promised to raise before the Maria
started on its trip southeastward.
Scrappy John Mandley.
John Mandley is SO loser by his Police
Court experience today. 1t was in evil
dence that John was standing on the
platform Of d street car last night, and
when he expectorated OH the car. in vio-
lation of the regulation of the Commits
sioners. the conductor warned him. In
stead of needing the warning, it was
shown that Mandley used profanity to-
ward the railroad man.
Judge kimball having In mind his Oft
repeated promise to protect patrons of the
street car lines from annoyance, fined
Mandley S. for swearing and S13 for spit
ting on the car.
Lawyer Jones quoted Scripture in the
Police Court today in his effort to save
his three clients from punishment.

quotation used by the attorney.

The peacemaker in these piping twentieth
century days rarely comes out Of an at
] fray without having his anatomy pune
tured by a bullet, being sliced with a knife
or ra COR or having his skull stove in with
a brick or blackjack. The times have
changed since the good old days of Ben
Adum.
