A MODERN BUNDLE.

On Wednesday morning Kulia, a
driver of one of the Tramways Com
pany's buses, appeared before the
Police Court in answer to a charge
OF violating rule 25 OF the carriage
regulations, by using abusive Ian
guage to the hack, Inspector, under
circumstances suggestive of the man
who,
Clothed in just little brief authority.
Plays such, tricks before high heaven
AS make the angels weep"
The evidence for the prosecution
which was the only evidence given
showed that on this particular
occasion, as on hundreds of others,
the bus was standing on the makai
side OF King street near Motifs store
and the fruit store adjoining, but
not so as to obstruct the access to
the former; that some months pre-
viously Mr.. Mott had complained of
buses standing in front of his store:
that the hack Inspector, Sam Macy,
standing on the mauka side, had
rather unceremoniously shouted
across the street ordering the man
to move on. He then moved for
ward a few steps, when the order
was repeated. At this point Kulia's
patience appears to have become
exhausted, and, in the pureso Anglo
Saxon, he retorted, go to hell"
though the evidence did not make
it quite clear to whom this beneyo-
lent Recommendation was addressed
Mr. Creighton who appeared with
Mr.. Neumann for the defense, ad-
mitted that there might have been
technical infringement of the rule,
but thought that reprimand would
meet the case, as the buses had been
allowed to stand on this particular
spot month after month without in
reference, The defendant was
fined 81 and costs, whereupon the
fervent prayer assembled from some
where within the precincts of the
court as the sanity Macy moved
from his seat: "Oh that-somebody

HE DID NOT CARE.
A Father Who Tortured His Son bv
Delaying His Answer to
Telegram.

There is always something amusing
about couple who have trouble i'm OBJ
tanning their marriage license. Mr..
Ross La Marters came to town yester-
day from the hills near Santa Fe and
went TO the Recorders office to get
the proper certificate which would
make his marriage to Miss Anna
Bratcher, of the same neighborhood,
legal. MIR. La Marters said that his age
was 10 years. Assistant Recorder j.
I. Williams told him that he must get
the consent of his parents before he
could procure a license.
The young man said that he had
worked on his own hook for the past
eight years and that his father lived in
Unionville, Mo. This, of course, did
not alter matters in the eye of the
law, and the young man accordingly
sent a dispatch to his father about 2
O'Clock asking him could he marry
For two bours and three quarters he
kept the path hot between c. A.Buck-
ner's drug store and the Court House.
"What time do you closer" asked the
desperate youth as the afternoon wore
well away. give O'Clock, ;" replied Mr..
Williams. 1t was then only few min
utes until the fifth hour should arrive.
Young La Marters chased back and
forth repeatedly within those few
minutes which seemed to fly SO quick
ly. One more trip and the clock
struck five as he reached the office
door in despair. Recorder Bruce be-
gan to close the big books and the
young fellows face grew sadder and
sadder at each "snap' of the books.
Just as the last book was closed and
hope was given up by all the door
burst open and the message boy
handed La Marters a telegram from
his father, which said that he didn't
care whether he married or not.
The license was issued and the
young man who figured so conspicu
ously in the case left for home the
happiest lad in seven states.
