THE RECORDER'S COURT.
He Metes Out Justice to a Number of Violators of the Law.
The Recorder this morning had a miscellaneous crowd before him.
Archie Robinson, recently from Philadelphia, was charged by his wife, Wilhelmina Robinson, with disorderly conduct while drunk. She said he choked her and slapped her little daughter in the face. Archie was before the Recorder a couple of weeks ago, when sentence was suspended. This time he drew twenty days.
William Dugan, of Philadelphia, came to Camden yesterday with a bottle, from which he drank so much that he fell into the hands of Officer Roche. As he had never been arrested before he was allowed to go.
Henry Johnson, said he was from Chicago on his way to New York and stopped over to see a daughter at Collingswood. He drank too much, and as he had considerable money on him Officer Butts sent him in. As he was new in Camden he was also allowed to go.
Katie Green was found by Officer Weaver, lying on a lot on Division street, unable to take care of herself. She was sent to the hall. She told the Recorder she was going to Scotland in four weeks, so his honor gave her thirty days to keep her out of bad company until she was ready to sail.
George Ritter, living on Haddon avenue, was picked up by Officer John Miller in the lower part of the Fourth ward. He said he had money to burn and the officer sent him to the hall to get matches. This morning he wasn't so free with his cash and sentence was suspended.
Harry Watson and Alfred Porter were arrested by Policeman Curtis for disorderly conduct at Cooper's Point Each drew ten days.
Knight Wood, of Philadelphia, for indecent conduct on a Kaighn avenue ferry boat, was sent to the hall by Special Officer Knox. He will stop in Camden jail for ten days.
