POLICE COURT.

Frivolous Charges-Defendants Prompt
Iy Discharged.
All Choy, Chinaman, was arrested
Tuesday for profanity. In the Police
Court next morning, the worst the com
planning witness had to testify was that
defendant had used very low, but vet
not profane, remark toward him. The
testimony is all recorded in a dozen
words, and defendant was summarily
discharged.
a somewhat similar case is that of Ali
Quay and VIM. McCandless, jr. They
were arrested for affray, but the evidence
to support the charge was that they had
nothing but good-natured wrestling
bout. As, however, they had carried
their fun too far-that is, out on the
street, they were reprimanded before
being discharged.
Luha and Hoopii forfeited, and Kaepa
was fined So for drunkenness.

The writer of the above seems to
imagine that the Kanakas at home are
all plantation laborers. To any one
knowing the constant demand here for

the Mormon converts being contract

KANAKA MORE0NS.
what Deputy Surveyor Fogarty Says
OF Them.

" nat btRuhN surveyor E1kaFts say :
of Them.
Deputy Surveyor John I. Fogarty was
seen yesterday afternoon on board the
Gaelic and was questioned about the
landing in this city Of Kanakas under
the guise OF Mormon proselytes He
pointed out that though it is surmised
that these iaborers from the Hawaiian
islands really are on their way to Utah
as contract laborers, the Government
would have much difficulty in proving
such to be the case. Although low and
ignorant they are well aware that 10 ad-
NIT that they have landed under con-
tract would be TO have them sent back
TO their plantations. They have been
filled with expectations of very bright
future in Mormondom, and so Will do
nothing TO prevent the realization of
their hopes. There being no kanaka
restriction act there is nothing but the
contract law to prevent their landing,
and all are now ready TO 90 on to Salt
Lake. An effort will be made to-day TO
secure evidence that the alleged Mormon
priests are only hirers OF contract labor
in disguise.-IS. F. Chronicle.

A Land Having No Jail.

The governor of Heligoland is mon
arch of all he surveys, albeit what he
surveys is not very much; but there is
one matter in which he cannot but feel
his inability to claim kindred with other
rulers Of men. In brief, as he almost
plaintively observes, there is no regular
Jail in Heligoland. a few cells" there
are, it is true, in which "disorderly per-
sons are occasionally confined" When
Heligoland has the misfortune to pro-
duce real determined criminal no
doubt it will be equal to the occasion,
but at present serious crime upon this
tight little island under British rule ap-
pears to be practically unknown, the

property in the entire community vary

determined not to take with him, but to

an old bear had made the house his abode
during the winter, and on going to the
tree for his money, the man was not 8
little disappointed to find it-goneI
His mind lowered round his money,
and he haunted the tree. At last he de-
termined to cut it down. At the base
hope revived when he saw portions OF

The Government Of Washington.

Washington is a city that is governed
by the people of all the states of the re-
public. In electing their representatives
in congress the people of the states elect
Washington's board of aldermen, and in
choosing their president they choose
Washington's mayor. For this privilege
of controlling the Federal City the coun-
try has to pay one-half the expenses Of
the municipality. In fact, very little
money but Uncle Sans money is ever
seen here, and very rarely does any one
in Washington get hold Of an old bank
note. The government pays out nothing
but new money, fresh from the money
mill. Even the United States treasury
is used as sort of town bank, to which
hundreds of Washingtonians go daily to
get money changed.

A Shower of FrOCs.

Frogs covered the streets in the neigh.
borhood of Twenty-frst and Bank Gtreet Z,
yesterday morning during the hard rain
They came down with the rain, and an
area of about four squares was strewn
with them. This frog shower lasted
about half an hour, and, as some of the
superstitious people were unable to &C
count for the presence of the reptiles, for
o time considerable alarm prevailed
in that locality. One old negro who was
averse to believing that such thing as
frog shower could occur, ran wildly
about the street telling his friends to pre-
pare for death, for the world was coming
to an end. The frogs were about the
size of silver quarter of a dollar

More Testimony to Prove the Charges Laid
Against the Cars Land
Everything has stood still under the
present czar; the bribery and corruption
of the officials, the ignorance of the
peasants, the interference with all private
liberty. continue as under Peter the
Great. Men are sent off by hundreds to
Siberia, while it is never known by whom
they were denounced, or what are the
crimes imputed to them. The petty in
references in common life are almost in
credible; no man can even alter the front
of his house in St. Petersburg without
special permission from the car. For
eign newspapers are received with broad
splotches of printing ink over any pas

volutions" of a wheel were considered
as suggesting wrong ideas.
The theory of personal government Is
carried out to its utmost extent; each
minister is supposed to communicate di-
rectly with the car, and to take orders
from him alone, so that there can be no
concert between them, and nothing like
what we call cabinet. In practice,
however, this cannot possibly be carried
out, and the majority of the affairs OF
the enormous empire must necessarily
be settled without the cognizance of q
Jhief who cannot be ubiquitous or ON
niscient, and by number of irresponsi-
BILE petty officials with enormous power
of doing evil
The peasants still conceive that the
car can do no wrong, and believe in
him as in god; this forms, indeed, one
of the chief points in their religion
which consists in prostration, genu1ex,
ions, and crossings during a service con.

TIA BATHING mn.k End

a new wrinkle that broke out this
week is for ladies to wear masks in the
water. The masks are either black or
white, and made of channels skin. It is
exasperating to the spectators to see
fair bather, with figure like Venus,
trip along tho sand with mask on and
no way of finding out who she is. II is
currently remarked that tho masks are
worn as protection to the complexion4
and not from a sense of prudish modesty.
Some Of the wicked, so it is said, have
started pools on the esplanade. the bets
being as to the identity of the maskers;
but this is becoming unsafe, as it is hard
10 unravel the secret of who is below the
tasks. The gaugers are chewing gum
end bathing tickets. A bather with q
handsome figure is so closely masked
shat her identity has not yet been re-
vealcd. and the curiousare on the ragged
edge Of anxiety to know who she is, Sut
they can't end out.-Santa Cruz Coy. San
