HE KNEW THE JUDGE.
And it Happened That the Judge Ais
Knew Him.

And it Happened That the Judge Also
Knew Him.
On Monday James English and John
Wolck pleaded guilty in Judge Armstrong;
Court to charges of burglary, and yester-
day was set for the time of passing SEN
tence. One of the twain sought to obtain
some comfort from District Attorney
Bruner, after having pleaded guilty, and
asked him how long time he thought the
Judge would give him.
Il have no idea" replied the District
Attorney. II have not the privilege oil
consulting with or advising the Court in
matters of this kind He hears all the
facts, forms his own judgment, and keeps
his own counsel until prepared to an
nounce the result"
But, yer see," persisted the prisoner,
der Jedge orter know me. l wuz born in
block of his house an want yer to tell
him so for me, will yer?n
The official said he would do so, and
meeting the Judge that afternoon delivered
the message.
Judge Armstrong reflected a few mo-
ments, and then said he did remember
the youth as pal of the notorious Kate
Dawson, and hard case.
Vest erday English and Wolck were
brought before the Court for sentence, and
were given ten years each in the Folsom
Prison.
Late yesterday afternoon the distressed
mother of young WoIck was searching for
an attorney to see if she could not have
the sentence in her sons case revoked and
have him placed on trial before jury.

the Military Neglected.

Colonel G. ]. Cross, the Mexican veteran
and pioneer house-raiser of Sacramento
without whose valuable services during the
Mexican war (aided as he was by few
thousand other brave men)-California
might not have been proud State of this
Union, was encountered yesterday by a
RECORD UNION reporter.
The Major first saw the reporter, or the
interview would not have taken place. He
said that, for some reason he had not been
named by the Trustees as one of the free
holders to frame a charter-an omission
which he believed was wholly uninten-
tional-and he did not think it too late to
make him the sixteenth member.
Continuing, the Captain said he thought
it serious mistake not to have a repre-
sentative of the old-soldier interest on the
Board, and as there was nothing mean
about him he would offer himself to the
people on behalf of the old soldiers.
You may say" concluded the Lieuten-
ant. that the old veteran is on deck and
perfectly willing to serve the people, sc
long as he is permitted to march under the
glorious flag of the free"

River Tourists Create Lively Scenes fol-
Waterfront Loungers.
Yesterday morning three or four laborers
bent on going down the river by the regu.
lar steamer were conversing together neal
Second and K streets. 1t was Just half
past 8 o'clock, and the steamer leaves at 10
Each had gripsack and several bundles
and they were talking about the trip, when
three blasts of the steamers whistle
startled them. They broke at full speed
for the river-front, and q run of a block
and half brought them to the wharf
A few more jumps and the quartet were
on the boat, where the bundles were
dropped, and each gazsd at the rest with q
sigh of relief.
While the deck-hands and spectators on
the wharf were enjoying the scene, Chi.
naman with hat in hand and cue standing
straight out, rushed fnantically down the
wharf and sprang upon the deck of the
boat. The crowd had been yelling tiff p'
at every jump of the excited heather, and
he was well-nigh scared to death for fear
of being left.
1t was full half an hour after all this
confusion before the steamer left her
landing.

HYGRoMETR1c OBSERVATIONS.

Signal Observer Barwick Tells How Frost
and Ice are Forecast.
The Signal Service reports of yesterday
show that the temperature was the lowest
that has occurred here since the winter Of
1888. They also show with what accuracy
the temperature records can be foretold by
the hygrometer, which is simply two Their
mometers of the same kind, with one of
them kept wet all the time, which causes
it 10 read lower than the dry one. The
difference between the two will show, by
reference to tables, at what point the tenn
peIature of the air must be leduced before
dew can be deposited, and this is called the
"dew-point." When the point is below 800
then light frosts may be looked for, and
the lower the temperature of the dew-point
is below 32o, determines with what degree
of severity the frost will be.
The records show the dew-point at P.
NJ. on the 9Th instant to have been 800. A
heavy frost and thin ice were indicated for
the 9Th, providing the sky remained cloud
less. 1t did so, and the frost and ice ar-
rived on schedule time. At P. N. on the
9Th the dew point was go, or 40 below the
freezing point. Killing frost and thin ice
were tuc Icoult leStcIudy IuUIHluB.
The temperature of the dew-point at 5
o'clock last evening was go, or So below
the freezing point. showing the hygromet-
rical condition of the atmosphere was in q

There was quite a commotion at the Jew

which resulted in the arrest of one E. w
Startsman. 1t seems that some time since
he borrowed S11 there, leaving watch
and pin as security. The iewelry belonged

search, located it and left word that ii
should not be delivered to Startsman
should he call for it.
He put in an appearance last evening
and demanded the property, which de-
mand Mr.. Steinman refused to comply
with. Startsman then became abusive
and wanted to "clean out" the place,
whereupon Steinman telephoned for an
officer. Then Startsman undertook to
leave, when Steinman seized a pistol and
detained him until officer Rider came and
took HIM into custody. No charge has as
yet been laid against him, however
The disturbance attracted quite large
crowd. When Startsman was examined
at the Police Station all the money he had

how he expected TO be given back the

ADJUSTMENTS.

'The Spider and Fly" variety company
is announced to appear at the Metropolitan
Theater Friday and Saturday nights next.
II presents pantomime and burlesque, in
which Bessie Cleveland and Hilda Thomas
are prominent in singing and burlesque
parts, Louise and Ray Allen and Lulu
Reddan in dances, Ada Dare in posing,
August Siegrist in pantomimic clown parts,
the Dare Brothers in athletic exercises,
NJ lie. Dorst and Mons. Oreste in speciality,
The Dancing Masters and other features.
Miss Cleveland is announced as one of the
most successful leaders in burlesque of
recent times. 1t is said of her that she was
born to luxury and ease; reverses came,
and she took to the stage, all relatives but
her mother deserving her, who is still her
constant companion. She had long and
trying probation in which she met with all
sorts OF obstacles and discoursgements, bnf
overcame them by determination and
study, developed fine ability, won her re-
ward, and recovered those who had turned
away-in fact, the story of the girls battle
has engaged no little space in dramatic
journals. The San Francisco press speak
OF the company as giving an old-time holt
day burlesque pantomime and variety per-
Torrance, with clowns, dancers. singers
and athletes. The. Call speaks of it having
plenty of the elements of fun; the Chron-
icle as an amusing melange of pantomime
and burlesque, and the Bulletin adds that
the company is full of clever people.
The Duff Opera Company played "The
Queens Mate" to large audience at the

not unsteady very interesting, but it is a
very humorous conceit and well acted, and
the audience was kept in merry humor
despite the cold-the furnaces not being
completed. 1t was a misunderstanding of
the remarks of the manager that led to the
announcement that they were ready for
use. 1t is now hoped that they will be
completed by Friday evening.
