Every Wednesday drama, tnneb more i interesting than many plays, ia performed fa a room on the second odor of the big gray lon building on Mai berry street known aa police headquarter. A sign ever the entrance designates it a the court room. It ia the place where the police re tried for breeches of discipline. No oat aiders except reporter and witnesses are in the roonvwhose benche are occupied by a hundred or more policemen in full uniform. Some of these are Witnesses, but filly orsixly are defendants, and; it is catty to pick oat the latter iroin their gloom countenances.

Every week about filty of Xew York' 3,000 police have to be tried In this room lor offenses o( arious desreei of zraTitr. Ope of the four police commissioners, nose': offices are on the floor below, ait in judgtnenf on the of fenders. If it bappena to be courtly ritx John Porter'a day to try cases; or mild little Commvaiooer McClare'a or; Commissioner Voorhis's, the offender conraitulates bim elf, bat if Cotnmisaioner French, the presi dent of the board of police, takes the bench, the most eal looted officer trembles in bis boots ixia war that would please the "toughs' of bis precinct if they were allowed to see it. Commissioner Frencn look like the pic tures tee Oaborian drawa of the stern, jjrix ten eyed prefect of police ilis'sbarp. black eves appear alt tbe darker in contrast with has loot, gray mustache, Hi bronzed face, free trom all wrinkle, nor his thin lip iornish'any index the offender of bis opin ions.

A man with a formidable blonde mus tache arises at a signal from the commissioner and reads so rapidly that no one unaccustomed to him can understand what be say the charges are against: a policeman. The latter and the wiioesse in thece step for ward. The patrolman wears on hi sleeve, midway between, tbe hand and the el bo bands of blue braid, which indicate hi term of service, every five year adding a new bat to hiaAleeve. Lp to a certain point the ofli cer takes pride in these blue bars, bnt when four or more ot them have encircled his sleeve and be hasn't been able to exchange them lor tbe gold braid that indicate the officer; they become a source of aoooyaoce. The elerk witb tbe big blonde.

muntacue, who srta beside tne commissioner, is ones, able to tell why tbe blue bars have not been exchanged for the sold. lie is tbe record clerk and be keeps in bis relentless fashion the history of every policeman snortcominfcs. A digest "of tbe record is entered on the back of the charge against each man. When tbe charge have 'been read, the eommiasioner ia a qoick, imperious voioe or der toe offender and all witoesae to stand np and take tbe Bible. They cluster about a small.

well worn ciDie. to wnicn eacn cling with hi right hand. Sometime a dozen witnesses are thus clinging to the sacred book. The commissioner administers tbe oath. When eitizeas appear a witnesses an average or one tn twenty refuses to be sworn, and stand apart from the group about tbe Bibie.

After the rest have taken the oath. th witness makes his affirmation. The chief witness for the prosecution is usually an officer of the precinct from wjhich the offender comes. The commissioner ask him curtly, "Are these charges true?" aod beine answered in tbe amrmauve. be says: leu ju what you know about the esse." Tbe officer makes hi statement in a matter of fact way, and the commissioner then says: bat nave von to say tor yourself? me policeman ia allowed to make a full and ire aiatemenu Jie oay nave if 10 electa, but he leMom i indulges 1 in tbat luxury.

Tbe commonest cause of complaint 1 in absence from post. Tbe stereotyped excuse of tbe offender' is, "I was sick, yon honor, bad been taking medicine and stepped tnco a saloon to it down a moment." Tbe record elerk, who ha bad this excuse twenty times or more every Wednesday, smiles, bull the eommis ieuer'sJbUck ere fairly pierce the offender as he says: "Wov didn't you rtport sick and eb bomie?" The offender makes more ex cases, and nnder tbe fierce glare, ot tbe com missioner eyes be Is pretty sura to entangle ttimsell ln tbe mesbes ot tbe rase. I be commissioner suddenly exclaims "Closed!" make an entry in his book and tbe offender goes awsry in a state of suspense. lie will not know bis fatetontil tbe commissioner and his three colleagues, who meet Thursdays aud Fridays, have considered 1 ud passed upon tbe ease from the evidence adduced at the trial on Wednesday, lie may be nned one on twenty days, or bis ojerior officer mar announce to bim tbe terrible verdict that he must hand over his club and badge and retire from be service to private life. The la'tenpuniobinent.

bowever. la seldom inflioted. Oue remarkably, self possessed policeman explains his abseuce iron post by giving hi movements through a labyrinth of afreet while tbe roundsman was looking for him. There are more than 600 miles of streets in New rYork, but tbe commissioner knows every one of them, and be allows the defendant to tell bis ingenious story and then destroys bis evidence by showing conclusively that a snail could Jiave i traversed tbe route in the time that the defendant pretend to have taken to walk ever it. Then the commissioner says: "Vour recprd is bad.

Yon have been tried seven times for absence or bost during yonr four years' service on tbe force, and you have told the same story each lime, iou ought to invent a new excuse. Case Tbe offender roes awav feel ing pretty sure that if be gets off with twenty days' tine after such a speech from the ommisHlotier be will be "Ym failed to ranort at roll call: what excuse have you to ofi'ftV' demands the commissioner of another complainant. A comely womaa standing beside the stalwart nicer says: 1 am bis landlady and i torgot to call bim up in tats ins eommiasioner gives the landlady a short but severe lecture, and tells the officer: "You may go," which means: "I will net fine you this time." A handsome policeman, charged with call ing an official of the postoffice, with whom ht bas bad a political discussion, hard names, is arraigned, and a letter carrier, who rattles off but testimony la tne suited studied tones or an amateur tragedian, testifies, and supplements his'words with; Such language pained me very much, and "Oh. this ia the merest bosh," aays tbe commissioner. "Case closed.

The do I i co man has said little except to deny tbe cbargeM bat hi manly lace and positive manner con trasted with the offensive eonduot of the com plaicaat have, won the eaae lor him. Aon or tbe bity detective on tne ivew York force are ever formally tried. Their dea tiny depends on one man. and tie is Inspector Uy rnes, a man nattiiv aressed in a stnpea business suit who sit in an inner room at police headquarter, reached by a confusing abyrlntn ot passage gearaea by uniformed supernumeraries. The renctt detective bas been praised much in print, but expert and criminal will admit that the French Vidocq doe sot equal the keen detective of the New York force, waen tne tanerai ot uraat toox place thieve from all over America eaifcn to New York.

They were spotted by deteeaj ve on incoming trains, who allowed then; to land la New torkand then arrested tbem. A many as seventeen, in a herd were arrest ed and lock np'at one time, and tbe cell of be city prisons were fun oitaievea. a. mill ion strangers were ia tbe city, but the. only act of theft reported daring the obsequies was the robbery of an old German in a re mote part of tbe city, who lost a cheap ail ver wa'rh.

i At o'clock in tbe morning tbe fifty tective, a motley throag representing all nationalities, gather at the iupector's office. Some of them who work ia, tbe arUto eeatie parts tf the city are fashionably dressed and other who explore 1 the slum and docks are apparently like coal beaver. One is a Bohemian, another an Italian and another a Hebrew. They make their reports to the inspector, and if one bas been derelict in hi duty he is pretty apt to find that somebody' eye have been on him and that the inspector knows about his movement; The inspector is the eoort to try his case and bo outsider hear it. He may be reprimaoded or quietly dropped from the force, bnt there ia no appeal from tbe inspector's decision.

When a new detective ia needed a policeman ia so me ti rats flattered witb an invitation to pat on citizen' clothe and report to tbe inspector. He may have been patrolling a foreign beat in the outskirts of the city, but the inspector, who watches the record of every promising policeman, baa beard df hi making a clever arrest, and wants to give bim a trial. The inspector has truisms, one of which is that a man who is to make a good detective will show it in his. and another being that be must first pwses a great ambition to be a detective. 'Ambition is tbe mainspring and aecretivenesa and per severance tbe balance of a good Tbe inspector has also a tradition that no woman make a good detective'.

"Thev are too apt to fall in love," he say; "and. a woman in bve will tell all she know. I sometime have to employ a woman, but I tell ber no more about tbe case than ia abso lutely necessary." Amos J. Ccmmikgh. BATTLE OF lOGUK.S KfJX.

A. and we to organize a oinss Ilelief corps out ia oar place. We're pretty well off in this world' good, aud I think it the duty of every one blessed as I have been to remember tbe widow aud orphans of tbe boys who never came back.

Ilesides, 1 don't know any one who lias a better right to wear a badge than I have, for I was in a battle myself. Now, yoa needn't laugh, 'cause it wa'u't no laughia' matter; but I'll tell yoa how it happened, i. You see, John Winslow was a beau of inine. far tu jined, aud our mothers made soap oat of tue same and 'bused the neighbor together, year alter year, ami was josia thiek as they could be. children played togetber, and wnen we 'grew older John went "with tne to the aingin' land quiltin', just the same as if he aliers had a right to.

there was another young man in tbe neighborhood who went wilit ut a few times, aud John didn't like it one bit. I saw be was kind o' jealous, and I went with iiill Harper more than ever. xou know wnat loot things girls will do sometimes. Veil, after while Jobu got tired of it, and we bad a pretty serious talk one' Sunday 1 ow.Mary,' says he, 'here I've been a count iu' you oil a on for better two years, and you know that 1 never can love uo other girl, no' I've just made up ray tuincj that if you won't have me I'll enlist. Heme wben you bear I been killed, or died ott in some strange place.you'll be sorry that yoa treated me so i i "It made me feel aw fol to bear him talk in that way, and I was just about to say be shouldn't go 'can ho I thought1 a heap of John wben he said: Oh, 1 know what you'll do wilhout yoa tellin' me you'll let me go away and then marry that copperhead, ill 11 Harper.

1 believe you're purty near beiu' a copperhead "i "1 bat settled iU tie knew that 1 was as loyal as be was, and it made me awful mad. I allers no wed be was jealous ot liill, and i told bim so and told bim to the sooner tbe better. I "And so he did. Before tbe week was over he was in camp at Indianapolis on duty. "After be was gone 1 lellureadfulJwuesome aud bad, but jut kept sailin' around wiih Dill and wouldn't let on.

1 waa lust a tlyin' to see John, and so when Hill told me there was going to be half tare on account or a democratic convention being held, and asked me to go, I was only too glad fo tell him I would. I thought if I could "only see John to' have a talk with bim, i eouid at air right, We went out to the camp, and soon come to a soldier, a walkin' back and forth. lie looked so fine ia his new uniform, and whe'u he raiKed his hat so polite, saw it waa John. I felt like rusbin' right to bim and askin' him to forgive me, but just passed on, and never looked at me again. "1 stayed tbere a long time, but Uidn tse bim any more, and so, when the' long day waa oyer, 1 started home with a pui in my heart an' a great big lump in my threat, and Wished a thousand lime tbatrl hadn't come.

i thought, as tbe train started, oat of the depot, that Bill Harper bad never looked so ugly and hateful before, and couldn't help eomparin' bim to poor John, who, I felt sure, would never see again. We hadn't gone but a little way when a lot of fellows began firin' their revolver out at tbe car' window. They were set on doin' mischief tbat day. for they lew the most of the boys were at tbe front: but Governor Morton was here yet with enough brave sol diers to take care bf and while hey were atrntd to carry out their plana. they couldn't leave without doinf seme devilment, but the train was stopped and tbe.

soldiers came aboard, and I can't describe' what followed, for I sort o' keeled over, you know, and wheu I came to at waa all over, and who was a bend in' over me but John, itb his kind face, sayin': Where is that cowardly cur that bas deserted you in sueh a place as thisr oat be waa not to lie Ion act.

There can be "no chsnge of venue in them, but i an appeal can be taken to Judge lireaham, and this will probably be dune.

The general Impression smong attorneys is that Uresham will sua tain the legal position taken by Judge Woods, regarding the offense for which indictments were returned. But little else was talked aboijif on the streets to day. and there Is a general opinion that at last Ihe tally sheet forgers are in fair way to be r.unl hed.

The Journal Intimate that a republican noll tlcian 1 reported have engaged in the Interests of the tally sheet forgers, aud to have done all tbat be could to influence such members of the grand Jury as be could approacn. Unfortunately tbe name ia lacking, but still tbere is a rising desire to know if it Is the same republican politician who is niiderstuod to bsve aided Sim eon tn bis last election to council, although be lived in a northern ward, and ir tbe same republican was conspicuous ia securing blmeon ro noniinatlon this last time, Beveral of tbe grand lurors of democratic faith are said to have atoed like a rock for the return, lug of Indictments, and no persuasion of party erest could change their determination.
