A good American citizen Of Allegheny
City undertook to make Baden flag In
honor of the Baden Beneficial AssOcla-
ton in session there. and forgot to put
the eagle and crown upon II. The re-
suit was that the emblem was mistaken
for Spanish flag by some one, and
threatening crowd Of thousand people
surrounded the house, frightening the
well meaning native Of Baden half to
death. He could not explain and was
compelled to give up the flag, which was
torn to pieces. And oil this happened
in an intelligent Pennsylvania commu-
nifty.

tuesday as Is predicted. He will await
better opportunity. The climax Of

Caustic Judge Hawkins.

Judge Hawkins once had to sentence
an old swindler and gave him seven
years. The man in the dock squirmed
and whined, "Oh, my Lord, I'll never
live half the timel' Hawkins took an.
other look at him and answered, az
don't think it is at all desirable that
you should.''
The formality of asking a newly con-
vioted prisoner if he had anything to
say why sentence should not be passed
upon him brought another characteristic
retort from the judge. A prisoner in
these circumstances usually either saws
nothing or curses at large in his rage,
but one of them struck a theatrical nos.
ture and with his right hand in the air
shouted: May the Almighty strike me
dead if don t speak the truth 1 am in
nocent of this crime" Judge Hawkins
said nothing for about minute, when.
after glancing at the clock, he full.
minated in his most impressive tones
'Sinoe the Almighty has not thought

never makes a sound-that's courage,
and it's of the right sort too. One man
who comes to me pretty often is Just as
stolid and indifferent as you choose, no

worms, and after awhile he said, Don't
you think I'm pretty brave, doctor?'

cry is when you really suffer and vet

ANOTHER CALABASAS ROW
The Little Burg Must Keep Its End
Up Before the Public

The wheels of justice are moving very
slowly when Calab is not represent
ed about the courts. Yesterday Vicente
and Juan Ytunolda, father and son, were
arrested at the instance of Manuel Do
minguez All the parties reside at Cal
abasas, and Dominguez is the man who,
not long ago, displayed some desire to
carve up Constable Harvey Branscombe.
1t appears that on Ytunolda's place
there is spring, and in days gone by
when he used to let his cattle Craze on
the land now in possession of Domin-
guez he laid a pipe from the spring to
trough some considerable distance
away. At later date the trough was
brought back on to his own ground by
Ytunolda. and the present trouble de-
veloped when he dug up the connecting
pipe. Dominguez claims that the pipe
is laid on his land. and he needs the wa
ter for domestic and irrigating purposes,
while YtunOlda denies that his neighbor
has any right. title or interest in either
the pipe or the spring of water.
Whether there is any merit in the case
or whether it is merely another effort to
keep Calabasas before the public and
advertise its advantages as lively place
of residence, remains to be seen.

sCHILLING's CASE CONTINUED
Some of His Transaction in San Ber-

William Carl Schilling. alias Schlitz.
alias Fischer, alias Mulhausen, alias
Stein and several other names, was to
have been tried yesterday afternoon in
Justice MorrisonS court on two charges
of petty larceny. The accused was ar
rested by Detective Goodman Jan. 4th,
after a weeks search. He is the Ger
man who claimed to several persons in
this city that he was relative of the
San Francisco merchant, and also that
he was a son of the famous st. Louis
brewer, whose name he gave to some
people On the strength of these claims
he is said to have secured various arti-
cles from different people, one of them
being a diamond ring, which he took on
the pretense of having it reset
Attorney Phibbs. who is his counsel,
was engaged in the United States dis
trict court, and it was impossible to pro-

stated that the defendant came to his
place of business, he is pawnbroker
and jeweler on Dec. 29th. and wanted
to buy watch. He selected cheap
timepiece, but was unable to pay for it.
Then he produced diamond ring, Wnlcn
he left as security for the payment of
SO on the watch. A few days later, at
the request of the sheriff of that county,
Downs gave the ring to him, the request
for it having come from Chief Glass,
who sent the watch back. The accused
gave the name of Fischer in San Ber-
nardino. The ring was shown him and
he identified it. At the conclusion of the
examination of this witness the case
was continued until Wednesday,

TIED UP TOO LONG
Hitching Ordinance Violators Are
Rounded Up by the Police

There was another roundup of vio-
lators of the anti-hitching ordinance by
the police yesterday, seven arrests being
made between noon and 4 o'clock. There
has been for some days a growing care
lessness on the part of the owners OF
vehicles as to the attention paid to the
twenty-minute time limit in the or
dinance, and the result has been that
there have been numerous violations. 1t
was impossible for a policeman to watch
single teams and at the same time
patrol his beat. Thursday afternoon
Chief Glass detailed several officers in
citizens attire to watch for just this
class of cases, and the several arrests of
that day was the result. Yesterday
there was a repetition of the previous
days work.
Perhaps the most notable person who
fell into the clutches of policeman yes
terday was NJ. M. Potter, proprietor of
the Van Nuys hotel. He had been driv-
ing and when he returned to his hotel
he left his horse standing at the en-
trance. Engaging in conversation with
some of his guests, he did not notice
the flight of time and twenty minutes
elapsed before he thought of the or
dinance. Patrolman Fifield was watch
ing for just such cases, and when Mr.
Potter came for his horse the officer
had it. OF course. Mr.. Potter was not
locked up, but at the station was re-
leased upon his own recognizance. His
case will be tried today.
The others captured yesterday were:
