SAUSAL|TO'S HORSEWH|P
DR.. G. ChiIds Macdonald
LiquidateS a Fine of
Twenty Dollars.
His Lively Encounter With DR..
Freeman Settled In the
Municipal Court.

Sausalito's municipal court has declared
sgainst the unrestricted use of horsewhips
by imposing fine of $50 upon one OF the
warning doctors whose emphatic language
and belligerent attitudes excited that quiet
village on Saturday last.
Dr. G. Childs- Macdonald, Md, FRO.
Sc, stood up before Judge Pryor yester-
day morning and hsteaed to the reading
OF complaint charging him with unlaw-
fully and yiciously battering DR.. r. Free
man with a whip.
mot guilty, your Honor" he answered
to the regular question.
DR.. Freeman, the injured medico, was
on his feet in a twinkling. But he only
glared at his adversary. Whatever opinion
he possessed as to the veraciJy of DR.. G.
Childs-M Macdonald he retained within his
own breast, when the courts eye fell upon
him.
.'Dr. Freeman called him scoundrel."
said ]. ]. O'Connor, the eyewitness.
Then DR.. Childish Macdonald hoped out
of his buggy and cut DR.. Freeman with
whip. Then DR.. Freeman called the de-
PENDANT another name-a very bad name
very much worse than scoundrel, and the
defendant made another break for him.
Then l got in and stopped the fight.
That's ALL
did he qualify the word scoundrel?"
asked the court.
Eyes, but I'm not sure which of the two
adjectives he used" was the answer.
DR.. Childs- Macdonald explained: at
was that adjective which to the ear of
well-bred Englishman is the most unre-
fined that can be found in the dictiona-
ries"
Il did not call him that kind of sceun-
drel," roared DR.. Freeman, II never use
such a word
You did, cried the defendant.
Il did not! 1t was the other kind, the
milder word. / always use mild words.
Eyes, you do-not"
THAT will do, gentlemen" said Judge
Pryor. at doesn't cut any figure after
all"
The belligerents glared at each other.
Let me ask him" said the defendant,
'if he did not put his thumb under his
nose and Niggle his fingers at me?"
'Me, wiggle my fingers at you? No, sir.'
''Then if Marshal Greed says you did he
is liar, is he?'
at is not Marshal Creed that's a liarp'
insinuatingly.
'He has been accosting me on every
possible occasion, and didn't even spare
me when my wife was with me. Only last
Thursday he met"
'Confine yourself to last Saturday." said
the court
Finally the testimony was all in, one
way and another. and the court grew
solemn.

THE GRAND JURY.

Fire Department Inquiry-Effort to Re-
move Sidewalk Obs tructiOns.
The Grand Jury held an animated ses-
sion yesterday afternoon, fifteen of the
nineteen members being present. Among
the witnesses called yesterday was Chief
Engineer Sullivan of the Fire Department.
Others connected with this branch of the
municipal service will be called perhaps
at the next meeting.
Shortly after the Grand Jury was organ
lied an effort was made to clear away OBJ
structing signs and other unsightly objects
throughout the City.

nication from the Grand Jury, passed an

Mr.. Deuprey was attacked with spasm
of mirth and INDUCED in hearty laugh
when he saw the theory advanced IN an
other publication yesterday TO the effeci
that the "sweet pea giri' was to be thrown
into the breach to save Durrants neck by
testifying that she 1t was who accompanied
the accused to Emmanuel Church the
afternoon of August 3, the testimony OF
Mrs. Leak and others who claim to have
seen him with lady that day having first
been admitted.
eff anything of that kind is to be DONE
said Mr.. Deuprey, ~ haven't been taken
into the confidence of my confreres, for
know nothing of it."
According to Mr.. Deuprey all the theo-
ries, with perhaps one exception, have
come to naught, for he also denies having
any knowledge of an alleged medical man
who has been said 10 be ready to testify
favorably to the defense, relative to Dur
rants alleged Journey on the Powell and
Valencia street cars on the fatal afternoon.
The one possible exception is the theory
that the defense will strive TO prove that
Blanche Lamont was seen alive after the
hour on which she is supposed to have
been murdered. This the defense has de-
cIined to either confirm or deny; hence it
lnay be that this will prove the corner
stone upon which the surprise structure
will be erected.
Durrant has received an anonymous
letter, written either in hieroglyphics, an
arbitrary form of shorthand, or perhaps
only the pen Something's of crank. No
one seems able to make anything out of it.
but it is possible that it contains hidden
meaning of much Importance. Durrant
himself considers it the work of a crank,
and says he cannot think of any meaning

order revoking all special privileges previ-
ously granted to MAINTAIN bootbIack,
stands. projecting signs. etc., but the pres
sure on the board was SO great from some
quarters that a resolution resembling the
revoking order was adopted.
Many of the members of the Grand Jury
took the position that the special privi-
leges annulled by the revoking order were
not restored by the resembling order and,
therefore, most of the existing distractions
are maintained contrary to law.
1t is said that the subject will not be al
lowed to rest here. Efforts will be made
again by the Grand Jury to bring the
Police Department and Board CT Super
visors into line, with the end in view of
removing sidewalk distractions.

SONOMA'S WINE YIELD.
1t Has Been Considerably Delayed by
the Recent Rains.

Captain B. F. Cromwell. United States
Internal Revenue agent, and J. G. Meyer
Jr., returned from tour of inspection of
Sonoma County yesterday. They wanted
to see what the stills and wineries were do
ing, but found they were couple of weeks
too soon, and that not a third of the plants
were in operation. The recent rains have
delayed matters, and also caused consid-
cradle damage.
The Sonoma County vintage is st least
three weeks late" said Agent Cromwell
yesterday. "The rain made it impossible
to pick the fruit, and in many districts the
grapes rotted on the ground. Many of the
vineyardists will be heavy losers, but
others will come out more than even.
There will be heavy wine yield in So
mona this year, and considerable brandy
will be made. In order to ascertain ex-
actly what is being done 1 will have to
again visit that section next month"

A LOCAL SOAP COMBINE.
Manufacturers Organize to Compete
With Eastern-Made Goods.

Manufacturers Organize to Compete
With EasternMade Goods.
The soap manufacturers of this City about
fifteen in mber, held a meeting yester-
day in the rooms of the Manufacturers
and Producers Association for the purpose
of organizing. The meeting was held with
closed doors, and those present were very
reticent about telling what had been done
The movement of the organizing has
been under consideration by several prom
inent soap manufacturers for some time
past, and letters have been sent to the
soapmakers in Sacramento, Stockton,
Fresno and the cities further south. At
the meeting yesterday representatives of
Knight & Co. of Sacramento and Williams
& Moore of Stockton were present. Letters
were read from soapmakers in other places
too far away to warrant trip to San Fran
cisco. The writer's Endorsed the proposition
of organizing.

THE GREEN-FRUIT QUESTION.
Orchardists DESTROYS of Changing the
Present Marketing system.

The proposition to change the Novem Der
convention OF the State Fruit Growers
Association from San Diego to Sacramento
is being considerably agitated among the
fruit-growers north of Fresno. MANY let
ters upon the subject have been received
by B. M. Lelong of the State Horticultural
Society. Among the latest is one from
II. T. Stabler, prominent orchardist OF
Y uba City.
B. S. Hutchinson, a large fruit-grower
OF Fresno, writes in a similar manner. The
desire of the orchardists to have the con.
yention held nearer to the center of the
country from which most of the green
fruits are shipped gives some indication of
th cir anxiety to make some radical changes
IN the shipping and marketing of Califor-
MIA green fruits.

The shaI.espearean Plnrhouse.

De Wits pen and ink drawing Of the
interior of the Swan (596) is the work OF
an inexpert craftsman and may have been
made from memory. At the back Of the
raised stage are the mimo-um aedes, or
firing rooms Of the actors, and two very
small doors leading into the firing rooms
are the only aperturcs for the entrances
and the exits Of the actors. The shape of
the theater is that Of an oval amphithea-
ter. There are seats behind and around
tho stage, which, like scaffold, is raised
above the ground. The trumpeter on the
roof is giving notice, by three blasts of the
horn, Of the beginning Of a performance,
and three actors are already ON the stage.
The Londoners had long been accustomed
to see plays enacted in the open yards Of
the inns Of the city, and all round the
stage, in Dc Wits sketch, is the pit, the
open standing place for those spectators
who did not care to pay moro for a seat.
These auditors were groundlings
Bad actors were accustomed ''to tear
passion to tatters, to very rags, to split tho
ears Of the groundlings, who, for the most
part, are capable of nothing but mex
plicable dumb shows and noise" Shakes
peare had but little respect for these
groundlings. "These are tho youths that
thunder at playhouse and fight for Bit

but De Witt states that tho Swan could
hold 3, 900 spectators. Mag
