THEIR. FINES
Women at the Bar While Body OF
Their Mother Was Being Placed
Upon Cooling Board

The proceedings Of the Police
Court often cause mirth, but oc-
casionally the mirth undergoes
sudden change. About twenty years
ago q young colored woman was ar
rested at the instance Of another
negress upon the charge of disorderly
conduct. The prisoners father had
accompanied her to the court and was
awaiting the verdict. While The Ma
yor (who was police justice in those
days. was investigating the case an
officer whispered something in his
ear, when his honor brought the pro-
ceedings to a sudden standstill. The
Mayor who had been listening to the
unraveling of an elongated tale by
the complainant motioned for her to
stop a moment. He then told the
prosecutrix that the father of the
defendant had just dropped dead in
the room below, and asked her if she
desired to urge her complaint under
such circumstances. She promptly re-
piled, "No, indeed" and she with her
witnesses made a break for an exit
into the street. The prisoner, upon
learning of the sudden death of her
father. gave Il piercing shrek while
the Mayor motioned for her to leave
The prisoners box.
There was q scene this morning as
touching. Officer Bell had arrested
two colored men and two colored wo-
men on the charge Of disorderly con-
duct and fighting in the northwestern
section Of the city. Some of the evil
dence was amusing. The husband
of one of the women, it was alleged.
had become so incensed at her that
he attempted to place her head fore
most in a rain barrel. The officer
testified that it was a general row.
six of one and half dozen of the
other-and a fine of 50 was assessed
against each. The four paid their
fines, but within a few minutes the
women returned with neighbor.
The former prisoners sobbcd while
he neighbor stated to the court that
the mother of the former prisoners
died suddenly and was at that time
being placed upon a cooling board
The fines were returned to the couple
who left the court room weeping pite-
ously.
