AND JUSTICE,
Judge Campbell Teaches a Young
Man a Valuable Life.
time Lesson.
He Made Him Learn the Ten Com
mandments Before Dismissing
the Case Against Him.

Judge Campbell taught young man a
lesson yesterday that showed wisdom on
his part and earned the applause of the
audience in the court.
John Mulvaney, John Giblin, John
Walsh, Frank Hughes and John Mcleod,
of whom Mulvaney, who is u, is the
Oldest, were arrested on Sunday afternoon
on Dolores street, between Twenty-second
and Twenty-third, for disturbing the
peace.
When they appeared before Judge
Campbell Monday morning, Policeman
Thompson, who made the arrest, said
Mulvaney was the ringleader and had
urged the Others on in their effort to make
as much noise as possible.
The Judge discharged all the defend
ants except Mulvaney. NOW, Mulva-
ney," said the Judge, 'you have been
showing bad example to these other
boys. You disturbed the peace and quiet
OF that neighborhood, and it is evident to
me that you have no respect for the Sab
bath day. Do you know the ten COM
mandments?'
Mulvaney shook his head and the Judge
continued: ~ don't want to punish you
and will give you chance. If you learn
the ten commandments by tomorrow
morning will let you go. Meantime l
Will suspend sentence till tomorrow"
Mulvaney was taken to the City Prison,
and Sergeant Linjheimer, on hearing OF
the Judges decree. hunted up an old
Bible and gave it to him. He did more.
He placed him in a cell with Attorney
Ben Napthaly, who is waiting his trial on
charge of malicious mischief.
Yesterday morning the court was
crowded, and when Mulvaney stood up
there was the most intense excitement.
"Well, Mulvaney," said the Judge, "have
you learned the ten commandments
II have, your Honor" replied Mulvaney.
Let me hear you repeat them" said
the Judge.
Mulvaney started off and said them one
by one without a break.
That's Splendid" said the Judge.
Now you live up to these commandments
and you will never be in prison again.
The charge against you is dismissed. By
the by: who was in the cell with your"
Judge Benjamin Franklin Napthaly,'
replied Mulvaney.
Judge Campbell smiled and remarked,
Il see, you have to thank Ben for coaching
you"

POPP|ES THEIR EMBLEM
The Christian Endeavorers
Keeping Up Unbroken
Enthusiasm.
San Jose Delegates We're Given a
Cordial Reception on Their
Return.

Old Glory in the center, peoples on the
right, peoples on the left. peoples on the
pedestal; peoples on the babies, on the
maidens and on the boys, matrons and
bachelors alike. In fact, the Golden Gate
Union of the Christian Endeavor seemed
to have done nothing else other than to
strip the hills and valleys of California in
search of the State floral emblem-the
poppy. To such an extent had the collec-
ton been gathered that the lecture-room
of the Third Congregational Church on Fiji
tenth street looked more like fiesta than
an assemblage of earnest workers in the
endeavor to gather young souls into the
fold.
All this display with the happy and
cheerful faces of those assembled last
night was for the purpose of extending a

HELD FOR FORGERY.
wong Sam, Chinese Interpreter, Will
Have to Answer Before tho SUI
perior Court.

Wong Sam, the Chinese Interpreter, was
yesterday held by Judge Low to answer
before the Superior Court in $4,000 bonds
on the charge of forgery.
The evidence showed that Lum Too was
a passenger on the Coptic from China.
Wong Sam approached Lum Too's friends
In Chinatown and told them he could get
him landed for $3.50. to be paid to law
yer. They refused to give up such large
sum. but offered him $50. Wong got
angry and swore he would get even with
them, go he wrote letter to Collector
WISE, to which he forged the name OF the
Chinese interpreter in Los Angeles, stating
that Lum Too was not merchant and the
men who were trying to land him were
highbinders. This was followed by an
other forged letter. both of which were
produced by Collector Wise, who said they
had largely been the means of Lum Too
being deported. The Judge considered the
evidence sufficient to hold the defendant.

Zeno Mauvais Music Company, which won its
suit against Broder Schlam over "Ma Ange-

Camp in the Midwinter Fair in 1894, and also
from four people who had heard it sung at 277

Where Mrs. Gordon Lives.

The statement that Mrs. Gordon occupied a
room in the Bell residence, where Frederick
Bell sustained such serious injuries, has been
found TO be erroneous. She has lived with her
mother at 533 O'Farrell street for several
months past, and was in no way connected
with the events in the Bell residence.
