The Youngest Chaplain.Among the recent nominations sent by the

President to the Senate was that ofD. R.Lowell to be chaplain in the army. This is insome respect* a remarkable appointment, forLowell is probably one of the youngest menwho has been made chaplain in the army sincethe war. The custom has been, in nearly all.ses. to appoint veterans of the rebellion, whohave reached a point in their lives when it iswise to look about for a soft nest in which torest their old selves when they cannot preachany longer. Lowell eulisted when about six¬teen years old as a orivale in the one hundredand twenty-first Sew York volunteers andserved in that rank throughout the war. Atthe battle of Farmville, Va.. which was one ofthe very last engagements of the war, foughtduring the last three days of the pursuit oflove's army down into Virginia by Grant, youngLowell was shot in the right arm and it wasamputated at once. After the war he studiedfor the ministry, being or the Methodist faith,and was duly ordained. For some years he wasuaator of one of the leading churches in Al¬bany. but lately he has been at the head of aparish in Rutland. Vt. He is but forty-fiveyears old and will have upward of twenty yearsto serve, which is much longer than most oftbe chaplains stay on the active list.

JUDGE MILLER'S INFANT CLASS.Small Boys Brought into Court by Po¬

licemen.

There were not many pupils in Judge Mil¬ler's infant class today; in fact, the numberhas been steadily decreasing for tome ti me.The judge does not believe in sending littleboy* and girl* to the work house, where theyare only given a start on the downward road toruin; but there are some policemen who seemto think it to their credit to make a long recordof arrests, even if the defendants are of tenderage.One of the youngsters arraigned today was

Harry Dodson. He was brought in by Police¬man Redgrave for standing on the corner. Theboy's defense was that he was a stranger in thesection of the oity where he was arrested."Do you live in Georgetown?" asked the

judge. ;"Ye*, *lr.""Then you had better *tay there and not

come to the city to stand on corners. Qo onhome and keep off the corner."John Mann wag another small boy who

answered the roll call, and Policeman Trainortold the judge tliat he cnarged the boy withbeing a "suspicious character." It was claimedthat the lad picked up a pocket book that hadbeen lost and ran away with it "And anyother boy would have done that." said thejudge, "and the court is not going to convictthe small boy of that.""But he don't do anything," added the

policeman.-The law don't expert him to work." ex¬

plained the judge. "I suppose his parentsprovide for him. You can go home, boy."Frank Jackson, another colored boy, was incourt, and Policeman Redgrave accused him ofstanding on the corner. Juilge Miller, how¬ever, was not inclined to punish any membersof his class today and Frank was discharged.VICTIMS OF KING ALCOHOL.

Temperance Lectures In the PoliceCourt.Is Crime Diminishing Here?The vigilance of the police and the manner

in which Judge Miller has dealt with offendersare accomplishing good results, as shown bythe slim Police Court business recently. Al¬though there has been a large number of trialsin court many of them are of per¬sons charged with violation of thepolice regulations or of the liquor laws,or vagrant* who really live ia the work houseand are arrested again almost as soon a* re¬leased. During the past two week* there havebeen very few case* of aeriou* assaults or lar¬ceny on trial. The clas* of cases that outnum¬ber all others, however, are charges of disor¬derly conduct and profanity, growing out ofthe drinking of alcoholic liquors, and seldom a

day passes that Judge Miller does not have todeal with several such cases and deliver tem¬perance lecture* to fathers, mothers and evenchildren.

CASE* TRIED TODAY.Today there were eleven prisoners in the dock,

including one woman. Johanna Quill, who, ac¬

cording to her own statement, had been drunkfor a week. The unfortunate woman is a tax-payer, but her fondness for rum is continuallygetting her in trouble. "Drunk and disor¬derly" was what the policeman charged her withthis morning and the judge fined her*5. John F. Connors, who has been marriedmore than six years, was charged by PolicemanTreadwell with disturbing tbe quiet of Littlestreet southwest. Whisky was the cause of histrouble. The defendant's wife told herstory and Judge Miller said that be¬cause a severe penalty would probably provea hardship to the wife he would impose afine of *5 or fifteen day*. Thomas A.

TRYING LIQUOR CASES.

Judjt* Miller DUibIimi Several Police-men and Their Witnesses.

Junes D. Donnelly. who has so often been..lied upon to defend charges of violating theliquor law*, was again on trial in the PoliceCourt today. ' Unlicensed bar" was the chargeagainst him and the paper was sworn to byPoliceman Cexnar. There was some delay infinding the witness named on the paper.JohnH. Fisher.and the Judge refused to dispose ofthe oase daring his absence. The Judge .he did not intend to dismiss a case when thewitness was standing ont of court, but he in¬tended to sift the matter and see where thedifficulty waa.Policeman Ceinar was questioned and said

®at be swore out the information at the re¬quest of the assistant attorney, Mr. Richard¬son. He did not know who Fisher was nor didhe know ainrthingabout the case.John H. Fisher was then called and a colored

man responded. He testified that on one occa¬sion he bought three bottles of beer in Don¬nelly's store.He could not tell when he bought the beer.

The CA«e wai thereupon dismissed.Policeman Cotton, who recently obtained evi¬

dence in a number of ease*, figured as theprosecuting wituess in the Sunday bar cases ofW. H. Fugitt and Edward Faunee. In one caseJim Cliff, he said, went with him, and in theother case Edward Davis wag the person.Lawyer Cahill examined the officer about thenumber of drinks he had taken on the daycharged, and how much money he.pent. In the case of Mr. Fugitttb

j°®cer ¦ evidence was flatly contradicted

and the charge was dimissed. tut in the case ofMr.Faunce a fine of «20 was imposed. Mr.Cahill noted an appeal.Richard Cox was also charged with a viola¬

tion of the Sunday law, but as the policemauwas the only witness in the case a nolle pros,was entered.

Curtis Sclwiul Building.To the Editor of tbe Evesinu Stah:Kuowing the wide influence exerted by The

Stab permit me to call attention through itscolumng of the "powerg that be" and the pub¬lic generally to the unsafe condition, in case offire, of this building , especially when crowdedas it was last night with our wives and chil¬dren.The public hall in the third storv, 60 feet

from the ground, is reached by three long,double flights of narrow stairs, which are nowbraced up with iron rods story by story, and,I am told, are considered so frail that thechildren of the seventh and eighth grades, whoattend school in this public hall and otherrooms on the third floor, are not permitted todescend "in step," but, like soldiers crossingan unsafe bridge, must "break step. "

The room will hold, when packed as it waglast night, say 600 or more and has two doors(.each 5 feet wide; of exit opening on landinggin the stairways, which, being crowded withpeople descending from the galleries at thesame time that the room ig bemg emptied, a

jam must occur on these landings when thetwo throngs meet and, in case of fire belowgtairs. there would ensue a holocaust."aburnt offering or sacrifice, the whole of whichlg consumed by fire".guch as have been toooften the result of negligence and the lack ofproper regard for human life.

A Grand Jury After Mr. Archer.Frcvn the Baltimore Sun.The grand jury at Annapolis was engaged

yesterday in examining the same witnesseswho teitified before the legislative investigat¬ing committee in refereuce to the embezzle¬ment of ex-State Treasurer Archer. Thecharge before the grand jury is malfeasancein office. An Indictment on this charge is notfound in Wbarton precedents, the great re¬course of state's attorneys and public prose*outors. The nearest approach to it is "againsta justice of the peace for extorting fees fordischarging a recognizance and for not return-lug the same to the court for which it wastaken. The Attorney General can be senthere to aasUt State's Attorney Monroe, and itis not improbable, with Messrs. Carter, Gensand Hanna as opposing counsel, the state's at¬torney will ask legal assistance. The criminaldocket will be taken up on Monday next, butthe Archer case, if tried, would likely come upafter all county business is disposed of. Thiswill be in two or three weeks.
