THE JUDGES LEvEE.

He Tempers Justice with Mercy for
the Drunks.
Three men, whose faces were covered
with numerous bruises. pleaded guilty
to intoxication before Justice Owens
yesterday. George Blattner had fallen
down while under the influence OF
liquor, and he was fined $40. Patrick
Conley, an old gentleman who resides at
223 Fourth street, had big scalp wound
and several contusions on his face, re-
ceived when the sidewalk flew up. Like
Cadeaux in Erminie, he said it was his
first offense. The court fined him $40,
but suspended sentence.
The third wounded man, Charles
Madegan Of Brooklyn Heights, claimed
that he had been pitched out Of his
buggy by an accident, but the arresting
officer proved that Mr.. Madegan was
drunk at the time. He escaped with q
81 fine. William Benson, who had no
bruises, was also retired for three days
into oblivion.

An Interesting Decision Yesterday by
Judge Clark - The Case OF
Susan Robinson W. will
liam Mann.

Judge Clark, in department FIVE OF
the superior court, yesterday handed
down an interesting opinion in the case
of Susan A. Robinson We. VIM. Mann, t,
administrator. This is a suit to quiet
title to an undivided interest in lots IL
and II, block B. Riviera and vignolo
tract, city of Los Angeles.
In April. 1875, Jesse Robinson, son
OF the plaintiff, was by an order Of the
circuit court, Vigo county, Indiana,
adopted by W. II. Todd and Mary l..
Todd, and went with them to California.
On April 26th, 1882, the premises de-
scribed were conveyed by the then own
ers to Mary L. Todd without word of
separate estate. w. H. Todd died in
testate in 1888, and no administration
on his estate was ever had. The
adopted son, Jesse Robinson Todd, died
in September, 1888, aged 16. After the
death of her husband, Mary l.. Todd
married William Mann in December,
1884. She died in July, 1891, intestate,
and letters Of administration were is-
sued to her husband, the defendant.
Plaintiffs position is that the prop
erty involved was community property
of Mary L. and W. H. Todd; that upon
the death of the latter an undivided one
half vested in the adopted son and that
she. as mother and heir of said boy, has
succeeded thereto or to one-half thereof.
Admitting the property to be commun-
ity property, it would still be doubtful
if this position is we'll taken. It is
clear that an adopted child inherits
from the parent by adoption. But
whether the legal relation or status Of
natural mother who consents to the
adoption of her child by another is
charged is not 80 we'll settled.
IF, however, the property be not
community property, this question be-
comes lmmaterial. Upon this issue the
effect to be given to the deed of April
rs, 1892. is question of interest and of
doubt. Prior to the amendment of sec.
164, civil code, statutes of 1889, deed
OF purchase to married woman was
prima facie evidence that the properly
conveyed was community property.
Such deed, executed subsequent to the
amendment, would be prima facie evil
dence that the property was the sepa-
rate property Of the wife. But the
effect of deed offered in evidence sub
sequent to the amendment. though exe-
cuted before, is not perhaps entirely
clear. Plaintiff argues that the amend
ment is not retroactive, and that such a
deed is still evidence that the property
belongs to the community. /.
Even admitting the rule to be as the
plaintiff maintains, 1 should etill hold,
upon the evidence, the property to have
been the separate property OF Mary L.
Todd. Property paid for with commu-
nifty funds is the separate property oi
the wife If conveyed to her by direction
Of her husband and with the intent that
it shall be gift. think the evidence
shows such to have been the fact here.
:. The finding of the court will be
that the property was the separate
property of Mary L. Todd. Defendant
is ordered to draw findings and:decree. /"

Interesting Information About Their
Worlds Fair President.

Worlds Fair President.
The Southern California Worlds Fair
association is just in receipt of the fol-
lowing letter from the viticulture de-
partment of this state:
Here 10 chance for some one to make
fortune during the fair. Due notice
will be given for bids.
The California Worlds Fair commits
sion has received concessions from the
directory OF the Columbian exposition
that are of great value to the state OF
California in general and to the viticul-
turists and horticulturists in particular.
They are as follows:
First-The plan of the California build
ing has been accepted by the construc-
ton department, who praise it very
highly.
California is allowed her cafe
or restaurant for the sale of wines, fruit,
vegetables and other products, with q
first-class lunch. This privilege will be
let to some one-the best that can be
found.
Third-Orders can be received by ex-
hibitors in the California building, to be
delivered at any time, to parties or
places outside the exposition grounds.
Fourth-The Transcontinental Traffic
association has granted half rate each
way; or, in other words, rate of so
cents per 100 pounds to Chicago and the
same rate on what 10 to be returned.
These concessions are invaluable to
the viticultural interests of California,
and more than it was believed could be
obtained.
Now is the time to make your applica-
tion. Do it at once. as such must be in
before June Goth, so that they can reach
Chicago before July l, 1892.
An important meeting Of interest to
viticulturists will be held in San Fran

Justice Owens fined both men $40,
but Cook, who had that amount of
money up as bail, absolutely refused to
pay and was locked up. He seemed to
believe that ten days in Jail was prefer

THE ARROYO DEN.

Steps Being Taken to Close sMother''
Browns Infamous Resort.
The preliminary steps for the closing
up of vile den were taken yesterday
by Humane Officer Wright and the dis
trict attorney.
Complaints were prepared against b.
Billings, the son of Mother" Brown,
of unsavoly reputation, for keeping and
maintaining disorderly house in the
Arroyo Seco, outside of the limits of the
city, and also for selling alcoholic liq-
uors without license from the county.
The warrants on those charges were is
sued by Justice Stanton, who placed
them in the hands of Constable Rogers
for service. Billings was brought into
court late yesterday afternoon and ar
raigned. He pleaded not guilty to both
charges, and was required to give bonds
in the sum Of $1,000 on the first and $500
on the second count. Bail was prompt
ly forthcoming, and. he was released,
pending his trials, the first of which is
set for Tuesday and the other for
Wednesday next.

A Deaf Veteran Who Answered the Judge
to Good Purpose. a
John Brown, an inmate of the Soldiers
home who was found very drunk in
Chinatown Wednesday night, appeared
before Justice Owens yesterday after
noon. He is as deaf as camp kettle
and the united shouts of the court and
bailiff failed to draw bim out Of the
torpidity which follows a well regulated
jag:
"You are charged with being drunk
on Apablasa street." beloved the Judge
in Browns ear.
"Thank you, sir, that's too much I"
responded the old soldier.
''That is so," duly remarked the
court.
After the evidence was all in Judge
Owens inquired if the defendant was
ready for sentence.
"Ohi" said he, 81 don't need any 10
cents. I can get home all right and
am ready to 60 back there at once"
In despair the court wrote out his SEN
tence on piece of paper and it was
handed to Brown. who folded it up as If
it were safe conduct, and he skipped

THE WOMAN N BLACK
Her Remains Still Unidentified
at the Undertaker's.
The Cause Of Her Death Undoubtedly
Poison.
Her Attempted Last Mssssgs on tho
Cement Coping of the Grave IL Un-
deeipherablo-The Inquest t.
Be Held To-day.

Notwithstanding that many persons
viewed the body of the woman in black,
found on grave in Rosedale cemetery
on Wednesday afternoon, no one has
recognized her yet, and her identity is
as much of mystery as ever. 1t is
singular, however, that many who saw
the body, are, impressed with the idea
that they saw her in her lifetime.
Coroner Weldon and DR.. Bryant held
an autopsy on the remains yesterday.
Most organs were found to be in q
healthy condition, and death was not
the result of natural causes. The coat
ing of the stomach appeared irritated,
and tests revealed the presence of an
alkaloid. The two surgeons were at
work late last night to determine by q
chemical analysis what the poison con-
sists Of. The coroner had the body pho
tographed yesterday. The deceased was
about 35 years Of age, with dark hair
and brown eyes, weighed 14O pounds
and was 5 feet 6 inches high. The body
was well developed and we'll nourished.
There we're several false teeth in the up
per jaw, and slight scars on the upper
left eyelid and temple.
About twenty feet away from where
the body was found, bottle was dis
covered in the bushes, which contained
crystals giving out smell of camphor,
but 1t has not been positively ascertained
that this belonged to the dead woman.
The words which she had attempted to
write with pencil upon some cement
coping near the grave have been exam
ined with magnifying glass, but they
are undecipherable. The pencil, with
point broken off, which che had used
for this purpose, is peculiar triangular
one made by Johann Faber in Germany.
The only known person who saw the
woman alive on the day Of her death is
Mr.. Wood, the barber at Rosedale, who
saw her in the morning walking down
Washington street. When she reached
the car barn she boarded the one horse
car which carries visitors to the ceme-
terry. As she had no money and got on
this car, it is presumed she was no
stranger in the city, and was aware that
no fare is collected on this line. n
The coroner will hold an inquest upon
the body today at 10 80, at the under
taking establishment of Chase & Nick
erson. on Second street, and unless
somebody identifies her then she will
be classed in the category of unidenti-
fed dead.

His Wife Claims That His Mind 10 Inn
paired.
Dick Brown, the colored billposter,
was up once more in the police court
yesterday charged with having scattered
handbills on Main street.
The defense was that Brown is insane
and irresponsible. For the last three
days he has had epilectic fits, and his
mind is so impaired that his wife is tax
ing steps to have him examined and
confined in an insane asylum. Justice
Owens sentenced Brown to 80 days in
Jail, but suspended sentence. The poor
fellow believes that the members of the
police force are his deadly enemies, and
he delights in scattering bills where
they cannot do the least good, when
policemen are in sight, and he believes
that they do not watch his actions.

SHATTO AND SALOONS.

Tho Meeting Yesterday OF the Police
Commission-Wright Charges
Not Sustained.

The board of police commissioners met
in sdjourned meeting yesterday after.
noon, Mr.. Snider being the only alb
sentee.
The petition of the police department
asking that the time for the beginning
Of the summer vacations be postponed
to July 9th was read and the request
granted.
The application of John s. RICHTER to
have the license of E. Schueddig to the
saloon at 141 South Los Angeles street
transferred to him was referred to the
chief.
Humane Officer Wright presented his
charges against H. Richmond, the pro-
prietor OF the saloon at the corner oi
Seventh and San Pedro streets, whom
he accuses of having harbored minors
and of supplying them with liquor. The
officer brought no witnesses. The &C
cused sal0on-keeper appeared and abso-
lutely denied the charges. No action
was taken.
It was suggested that the amended
ordinance forbidding the sale of intoxi-
cants to minors unGer 16 years of age be
pasted on licenses in such manner that
it can be plainly seen.
Commissioner Shatto wished that the
rule should be made when q saloon
license has been revoked to refuse an
other for the same place, although to
another proprietor. No action.
He next made q motion to have all
family entrances to saloons closed. This
was defeated by tie vote, Mayor Haz-
ard and Mr.. Mackay voting no.
The mayor then moved that the board
order the signs to family and side en-
frances removed from saloons, and it
was unanimously adopted.
Another motion by Mr.. Shatto that
saloon keepers be prohibited from using
screens in their places of business was
defeated by tie vote.

The Wind Storm Yesterday was .
Corker.
Los Angeles experienced wind storm
yesterday which was quite unusual for
this section, especially at this time Of the
year. The highest velocity attained by
the wind was "a miles an hour. OBJ
server Franklin, of the weather bureau,
at the request of HERALD reporter,
looked up the records.
In the past thirteen years, the most
severe wind storms ever known in June
occurred in 1883 and 1885, when the
velocity of the wind was 81 miles an
hour. A glance from the top of the
Wilson block showed clouds of dust all
around. In fact, the dust obscuIed the
view of the mountains.
No reports of any damage have been
received. The wind abated at sundown,
and last night the weather was very
pleasant.

 Syrup

The majority of well-read phys icians now believe that Consump- ton is a germ disease. In other words, instead of being in the con- stitution itself 1t is caused by innu- merable small creatures living in the lungs having no business there and eating them away as caterpillars do
 the leaves of trees. A Germ The phlegm that is
 coughed up is those Disease. parts of the lungs
 which have been gnawed off and destroyed. These little bacilli, as the germs are called, are too small to be seen with the naked eye, but they are very much alive just the same, and enter the body in our food, in the air we breathe, and through the pores of the skin. Thence they get into the blood and finally arrive at the lungs where they fasten and increase with frightful rapidity. Then German Syrup comes in, loosens them, kills them, expells them, heals the places they leave, and so nourish and soothe that, in short time consump- tves become germ-proof and well. Q
