POLICE COURT.

There were nearly 10000 informations
filed in the Police Court during the past
year. This is about 5000 more than the
total number of cases filed during 1912. In
the District branch of the court there
were %, OS6, while in the United States
branch the total was 6.524. The total
cases in 1918 established record for that
tribunal. The record number was reached
in 1912. but during the past year nearly
5000 more were filed
Fines and forfeitures aggregating s10s.-
73s.03 were collected by William Adkin,
the financial clerk. This is SIS, Bib more
than that collected during the year 1917.
The principal offenses in the District OF
Columbia branch of the court were
drunkenness. vasrancy. violations OF the
traffic regulations and of the police Tegu-
lations. In the United States branch
cases of assault and petit larceny TOOK
up most of the proceedings.
With the establishment Of the new ex-
else law. making it an offense to be found
drunk upon the streets. thousands of
cases of that sort were presented in court.
The traffic regulations. which were also
made more uniform during the past year.
resulted in many charges being filed
against operators of various kinds Of
vehicles.
Miss Estelle Foster and c. A. Massie.
the probation officers for the Police Court.
were appointed October 10. 1912, for a
term OF two years. Their term of office,
tober. Many persons who pleaded guilty
or were convicted of crimes were p aced
on probation in the custody of either of
these officers. Some DRINKS who de-
cided 10 reform and said they would sign
the pledge not to touch intoxicating
liquors for six months or year, as the
case might be. were also put in the care
OF the probation officers.

JUVENILE COURT.

The most important matter in connec-
ton with the Juvenile Court during the
past year was the appointment OF Viii
ner ]. Latimer as judge of that tribunal.
Judge Latimer. who was appointed by
President Wilson, succeeded Judge Will
liam II. De Lacy. He occupied the bench
at the Juvenile Court for the first time
July %. Shortly cfter he assumed his
duties at the court, Judge Latimer called
attention TO the immediate need of a
new court
Not only was the court building con-
demned by Judge Latimer, but he cali
ed attention to the need of additional
probation officers. This latter matter was
taken up by the Daughters of the
American Revolution. which secured
subscriptions amounting to about 5000
for the pay Of a probation officer. Fol-
lowing the securing of the funds Judge
Latimer, in conjunction with the Daugh-
tiers of the American Revolution ap-
pointed Mrs. Edna Bushee as the new
probation officer.
Another change at the court was in the
clerkship, when Walter Burnside sue
ceeded Kemp Edmonston, who resigned.
Mr.. Burnside assumed his duties at the
court In October
Following Judge Latimers pleas for
new quarters for the court and additional
probation officers representative citizens
became interested and in the month OF
November the Juvenile Court advisory
committee was formed. This committee
appointed subcommittee for different
branches OF the court, which they viii
look after. Judge Latimer Is in confer
ence with this committee In regard to
the matters of the court. and 1t Is ex-
pectec that during the new year good re-
suits will be obtained

THINGS.
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.
Copyright. 1913. by Frank Crane.)

Miss Mathilda Tommet of Milwaukee
left a will the other day eight and one
half feet long, written In her own hand
on sheets of paper pasted together. In
it she bequeathed to one relative my
best bedspread and one-half of my best
towels; to another a high backed chair,
admonishing her executors to be sure
to take the one standing on the north
side of the sideboard'; to another her
chickens and feed; while vegetables,
fruit, pickles, a pail of lard and fathers
old clock" go to another, and to her
dearest enemy a pair of old shoestrings..
Then there was Thoreau. who in his
house by Walden pond would have no
furniture; he found a stone once which
he fancied, and kept awhile. but soon
threw it away, as he found 1t had to be
busted.
one of the greatest tryrannies OF life
is things.
The most common form of insanity is
the mania to own.
One of the first acts of a person who
comes into money is to load himself down
with a pile of rubbish that makes his
life a fret and his deathbed terrible.
The very rich collect. They get to-
gether spoons, canes, pictures, vases,
pitchers books or mai bles. When there
is no more room for them in the house
they build a wing and pack it full.

of old postage stamps locked up in a
safety deposit vault.
1 knew an old woman who never
Travelled, although she longed to travel
and had plenty of means, because she
was afraid her parlor carpet and her
blue china dishes would not properly be
taken care OF.
The stores are heaped up with things.
The most skillful men are employed to
persuade people to buy things for which
they have no earthly use.
Every home contains sets OF books that
were brought at a high rate, and that
have stood for years without soul look
ing into them.
American living rooms are as cluttered
is loaded with junk. The walls are
crowded with pictures, most Of them
bad The floors are SO thick with chairs
and superf1uous stands and tables that
few can wind their way through them
by day and none by night.
Things, things, things! Bedrooms are
full of them, closets heaped with them,
the attic is choked with them. the wood
shed and barn are running over.
When we go away on vacations we take
trunks full of things. When we go to
Europe also we find that baggage Is the
plague of our life.
1t is relief to turn to the books Of
the Hindus and read:
Even If they have longer remained
with us, the objects of sense are sure
to vanish. Why. then. not forsake them
ourselves? If they pass away by them
selves they cause the greatest pain to
the mind, but if we forsake them our
selves they cause endless happiness and
peace"
And in another oriental book we find
this searching word:

abundance of things which he pos
