characters In fiction, November

place in the hall Of fame along
side his more famous prototype,
Sherlock Holmes. In the woods

city, too, November Joe would
not have compared in merit of
achievement with Holmes, but il,

The price OF gas in the early part of
the last century is shown by sched-
ule Of charges issued by the Liverpool
Gaslight company In the year 1877. In
stead Of so much per cubic foot being
levied, each individual burner was
charged for. and the price varied ac-
coriing to the hour ut which the light
was to be extinguished Thus for us

an Washington street and started IN
/ pursuit of the men. They were fol-
lowed in a second machine by Serg-
cant Scott and other officers and sew
eral other automobiles with citi-
zens joined in the chase. The fugi-
tives were overtaken at the approach
Of the bridge over the tracks leading
to the Potomac Yards. AS the ma
chine containing Officers Kern and
Norris approached, two of the men
jumped from the back seat and made
their escape. The other two men
were covered by the policemen's pis-
tolls and after some resistance were
nlaced under arrest. Two pistols,
one a 32-caliber and the other a
long .3S, were found in their poses
sion. Later in the night Reh, one
of the men who had escaped and had
tried to make his way to Washing
ton, returned to Alexandria and was
captured in the Alexandria Quick
lunch room on King street He like
wise resisted when placed under ar
rest, and the officers were compelled
to club him before he could be taken
to the police station.
Maggie jefferson, colored, who was
struck by one of the bullets, was a
member of '5he party who were
standing at King mad Washington
streets waiting for an outgoing
train. The ball struck her on the
right side of the face, near the eye,
and it was at first thought that the
wound was serious, but later it was
seen that it was not of dangerous
nature, as the ball had, fortunately
glanced. She was taken into the
Martha Washington Cafe and later
To Fa$IIol s tirilg. & store, where Louis
Davis, washed the wound and at
forded temporary relief. DIR. De
lanev later arrived followed by Drs
Penn and Hopkins, and the woman'S
wound was dressed. Then she later
left for Washington.
The men were arraigned in Police
Court this morning and made con.
flictine statements as to who was
re responsible for the shooting. Hamp.
Ter said that he was driving the cal
and was afraid to stop and that the
three men whom he had picked NJ
in the saloon were responsible fol
i the shooting. Hampler was repre-
serted by Attorney Louis n. Duffey
All three men were held for the ac
tion of the grand jury.
Reh was released this afternoon up
on giving bond in the sum Of $1,000
for his appearance.
