FREED IN TRIAL
ASPROFANE

When two witnesses Policeman
John Boyd, of the Tenth precinct,
brought to Police Court failed to
substantiate his claim that the
defendant swore at him, Judge
Isaac r. Hit dismissed charges OF
disorderly conduct against Howard
t. Blatchley, Independent taxicab
driver.
According to the testimony of
both the officer and defendant,
Blatchley had just come ont of
his home in the 1900 block of
Columbia Rd. N. W.. where he
said he lived with his wife and
one child. when Boyd asked him:
What kind Of a joint is that?"
The taxicab driver resented the
question and demanded an apology,
he said. Boyd said Blatchley swore
at him and the driver said Boyd
pulled his gun and broke a window
of the cab.
Two bystanders testified they
had not heard Blatchley use pro.
fame language.

Northwest.
Although two of the defendants
were scheduled to appear in Police
Court yesterday, Harry Cole. Of the
Mt. Vernon apartments, was the
only one to show up and Judge
Isaac r. Hit fined him $40 for in
toxication.
Policeman Smith said that Cole
approached the organ grinder, who
was grinding out music, at approx
imately the same time the police
men came up. Cole staggered di-
rectly into Smiths arms and was
arrested.
When the police questioned
Guanno Couzeno, of Baltimore, they
found he had no entertainment
license" Couzeno and 'Sam," the
monkey, were taken to the First
precinct, and deposited IS in small
coins.
Policeman Smith said that Con-
zeno has been arrested on the same
charge before.
The frequent arrests have taught
Sam that the approach of bluecoats
means trouble, and he discontinued
his diligent picking up OF pennies
when the policemen came up.
Several coins were left on the
street when the party adjourned to
the station house.

bv the officials of the individual
parent teacher associations, as it is
through the local chairman that
clothing is distributed.
In practically every school of the
city there are cases where children
either have dropped out, or will be
forced to leave their classes soon
unless proper clothing is provided.
The hackers Of this movement
urge the public send in garments.
The utmost care is taken to
guard the identity of children to
whom clothing is given. This
policy has been found to be, of
great Importance because of the
constituencies of the children and
their parents.
In the past year it was estimated
that hundreds of children were able
to continue their education only be-
cause they had been furnished
clothing by the parent-teachers as.

PRECEDENT
To GUIDE
EIN, He
SAYS

Chief Justice Walter /. Nc
Coy, Of District Supreme
Court, took under advisement
today the motion of Franklin
Ellsworth Smith, asking for q
new trial. Smith was found
guilty Of fret degree murder
on November % in connection
with the strangling to death
of his 19-year-old daughter,
Bessie Smith, on September &c,
last.
The action of the court came a.
q surprise to spectators. who had
expected that the motion would be
peremptorily overruled and the death
sentence imposed upon the filicide.
The chief exception noted in the
motion was in the refusal Of the
court to charge the jury that IL
Smith was following an irresitible
Impulse in killing his daughter. he
should be found of unsOund mind.
Counsel for Smith cited former
cases in which the Court OF Appeals
had held that defendant charged
with murder was legally insane IL.
at the time of the murder, he was
unable to refrain from doing a
wrongful act, even though he had
the ability to distinguish between
right and wrong.
The -lnief justice plainly declared
that he was not In sympathy with
such principle, but, before he
passed sentence on the defendant,
he would ascertain the exact opinion
Of the Appellate Court in other
cases.

THE Pop ISSUE

The Park Board has been discus
sing whether to fix a price of five
cents or ten cents for soda pop at
park concessions Not being in the
soda pop business but endeavoring
to uphold TIE interests of the great
public at all hazards. We unequivoc-
ably come out for price OF five
cents. That is the price being
charged all over the city and We
see no reason why, at time when
the parks are forced to compete
with automobiles taking 80 many
people elsewhere. that people are
discouraged from going to the parks
on account OF pop bottle prices.
If the 100 per cent higher price Is
permitted for pop it will be only a
question of a short time wher ice
cream cones for the children will
likewise cost ten cents. It's the bust
ness of the Park Board to keep
prices down in the parks.
