Details of the Trouble

The old Glenwood Road was the sceneof excitement shortly arter 9 oclocklast night when a fight broke out in aband or gypsies who have been encamped near the old wine house on thatroad for some months past For almostan hour the woods rang with cries of

murder and police and the fightersas they rained blow after blow uponeach other were observed by passen-gers on the electric railway en route toBrookland

After the fight had come to an end theband hurriedly packed up their belong-ings and were soon driving madly up thedeserted road in the direction ofBrlghtwood leaving behind them one ottheir number James Smith who waspainfully cut about the face and hands

Policeman Goes to SceneIn the meantime the passengers on the

electric cars had Informed PolicemanStroman at Brookland He immediate-ly boarded a car and went to the sceneof the disturbance Upon arriving at thegypsy encampment however he foundnothing left but a few smoldering firesHe thea discovered Smith who lay onthe grass ciprlngas though In great pain

Upon questioning him the policemanlearned that the fight grew out offact that Smith had come into the campIn intoxicated condition and had be-

come involved In a quarrel with anothermember of the band whose name besaid was Archie Lovell Thwargument-betweou two bad become heatedthat were struck he said ina few minutes both fighters were rollingon the ground

Smith claimed that Lovell during theprogress of the fistic combat seized aheavy piece of wood and struck him inthe face tearing the skin badly andcovering him with blood The lightingthen became general the friends ofcombatants lining up against each otherIn a few minutes the camp presented ananimated appearance the men fightersbeing distinctly seen by citizens asthey wrestled and slugged beforecamp fires Now and then when aa un-usually clever bloW had been inflictedby one side or another the female ele-ment would rejoice in loud cries theirvoices being heard for almost a milethrough the woods

Band Moves Away HurriedlyGrrdualfy however the combatants

tired and fearing that the police wouldsaorUy be upon them deemed it bestto IeVe the place Accordingly tentswere quickly struck and all the luggage packed in wagons The horseswhich had been left ia the woods tograze were started after Itsome little time to secure them as theanimals frightened the cries fromthe camp during the fight had scatteredInto the woods They finally M-cijred however and hitched up gallopedfrom the woods on to the road andstruck a lively gait In the direction ofBrightwood

The only person left behind wasSmith whose face and clothing weremarked with bloodstains Before leav-ing him the gypsy leaders tied besideiim his but left nothing else ofhis property

The Injured Mans StoryHe explained as well as lie could to

Policeman Stroman the cause of thetrouble It had been the desire of cer-tain members of the band h said tomake him leave the camp but that ieand his friends objected to actionand the fight ensued He was extremelydesirous of securing a warrant for hisassailant but Policeman Stroman informed him that under the circum-stances nothing could be done as in allprobability his assailants were thenwell on their way outside of the Districtline

With tint assistance of the policemanSmith the blood from his faceand clotS He then mounted hishorse hreatening dire vengeance uponthe heads of his enemies and gallopedIn the direction taken by the main body

The citizens of Brookland heaTed asigh of relief when they heard of thebands departure It is said that forsome time past the band which arrivedhire about three months ago indulgedia brawls almost nightly and was a ter-ror to citizens who sometimes walked-or drove past their encampment

PROPERTY SOLD AT TAX

SALE DECLARED INVALID

Mr Request forCancelation Approved-

The District Commissioners recentlyreceived from Mr Fred McKee attorneyfor Mr Don A Sanford a request forthe cancellation of the taA sale of lots4 and 5 square 699 bounded by NorthCapitol First Street oat P and Q

Streets The taxes fur which the lotssold in April of year were as-

sessments for sewer amounting to 5143on each lot The ground for the request

to the effect tiaat the notice of asisessment was wrongly served upon Augustus Burgdorf who at the time didnot own the property

The application was referrol toAssessor and by him to J W Danielspecial assessment clerk The lattersubmitted the following statement relative to the records in the ease

Assessment for sewer acaiast lots 4

and 5 square O was levied May 11

1SS3 at which time the lots stood OR

the books of Assessors Office in nameof Augustus Burgdorf and billsleft at his place of business with hisson They were never returned and thisoffice bad no knowledge that the serviceof the bills Mas not valid until March31 1992 when Mr Sanford culled at-tention to the fact and bills were atonce servei upon him

The lots ramed were at that time advertised for sale inAprll 1902 for nonpayment not only ot the assessmentsmentioned Mr McKee butassessments for water main curb andpaving alle3 The only error IB

of sale was in date fromwhich intetest was charged viz July22 1S S Interest should have cal-culated from March 31 19K the dateof service of bills jspon Xr SanfordWhether this error iItlst the sale Iam unable to say

Mr II II Darneille the Assessor iaforwarding the above report to the

added the following statementThe act of August 7 1884 under whichspecial aisessraents are levied pro-vides in as follows andinterest shall be charged at the rateof S per ent per annum from the dateof the service of such notice on allamounts which shall remain unpaid atthe expiration of sixty days after serv-ice of notice of such assessmentSaid act also provides Any propertyupon which such assessment and ac-

crued interest thereon or any partthereof shall remain unpaid at the expiration of two years from the date ofservice of notice of such assessmentshall be subject to sain therefor Bidderthe same conditions penalties whichare imposed by existing laws for thenonpayment of general taxes andany property assessed as herein provided for shell become liable to sale forany other assessment or tax whateverthen the assessment Ievid under thisact shall become immediately due andpayable and the property against whichthey are levied may be sold therefortogether with the accrued interest thereon and t e cost of advertising to thedate of such sale

Although the notice in this ease wasnot served upon the owner uatil March31 1902 the property was salable forthese assessments for the reason thatother a Ss mentg for paving alley andwater main were due and payable onthe property However It will be seenfrom the report of the Special Assess-ment Clerk that there was included nthe sale interest on these assessmentsfor nearly four years more than shouldhave bein included

As it is too late to correct this error the sale In my opinion Is invalidand I haw the honor to recommend thatthe sale of lot 5 square 669 assessed-to Don A Sanford sold April 10 102to C H WilOrfe for 19246 and of lot4 square 669 assessed to Don A Sanford sold April 10 1S2 to the Securities Company for 1247 be canceledand the purchase money refunded according to law
