FOR CRUELTY TO A HORSE. HeDry Houser Arrested for Beat ing a Poor Beost Tbot Could
 Hardly Walk.

Henry Hauser was arrested for cruelty to animals by Officers w. T. Hooper and M McCurrie of the Society for the Pre- vention of Cruelty to Animals. James Hawkins a member of the society, saw Hauser leading a horse that could hardly walk behind a peddlers' cart on Spear street, near Market He notified the peo- pie at the pound, who made the arrest.
 The horse was found to be very old and one of his hips was broken. When the officers arrived on the scene the poor beast was actually leaning up against the wagon to hold itself up. The condition of the animal as it was driven up the street attracted the attention of a number of people and the cries of shame" were nu- merous The horse was so badly injured that the officers had to shoot him.
 From the owner it was learned by the officers that the animal had been sold to O. A Kenyon, who runs a green bone mill at Petalurna and was being taken to the wharf for shipment when the officers took charge of him. Kenyon, according to the officers. comes to the city once a week to buv up all the decrepit horses he can. and then ships them to his mill where they are killed and ground into chicken feed. The society has warned him before not to have the animals driven through the street and is determined to put stop to if. Some of the animals sold Kenyon are said to be in a worse condition than the one killed yesterday, and many of them die on the boat before they reach Peta- luma. As low as thirty-five cents Is the price Kenyon pays for some of the horses.

A FEW GOOD POINTS.

UThat a person in perfect health rarely catches a cold. It is only when the system is run down and the blood does not circulate properly that people fall victims to colds.
 D That it is a bad sign to feel weak and shivery and to constantly suffer from tired, miserable feelings. If you do not eat we'll, work we'll and sleep well. there is evidently weak spot in your system
 O That ordinary food and drink can- not supply the great vital force re- quired by people who work hard with their hands and brains. They need something to stimulate their energies, promote digestion and keep the blood moving. There is nothing better for this purpose than pure malt whiskey. G That there is only one really me- dicinal whiskey and that is Duffy's pure malt It is not an ordinary whiskey, but a pure stimulant that has wonderful effect on the system. It stirs up the sluggish blood, builds up the health. creates a good appetite and promotes digestion. It prevents and will cure coughs, colds, chills, and even pneumo- mia. Every reliable grocer and druggist keeps 1t. Beware of inferior imita- tions. Remember there Is no other whiskey like Duffy's and no other that can possibly take it's place.

In Favor of Honest IllIterocy.

The following appeal has been forward ed to Senator Stephen M. White at Wash ington, D. C.:
 SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. r, 1s9s-Hon. Stephen NJ. White, United States Senator, Washington, D. C.: On behalf of the Italian and other illiterate immigrants appeal to you and to all friendly Senators to oppose the i'm migrant bill before the Senate, 1t being against the policy of our institutions.

There is plenty place in the region of this Union west of the Missouri River where immigration Is abso- lutely needed. These illiterate immigrants are a hardworking, enterprising, good people, con- sumers and who help to build up country. They seek no office and none of them occupy our penitentiaries forgers, counterfeiters sWindlers, etc. Kindly submitted

TO EMPLOY UNEMPLOYED
A Proposition for Permanent Re- lief Suggested to the Boord 2
 of Freeholders.

A meeting of the executive committee of the unemployed men and women of this city was held at BIO O'Farreli stret last night. and the following petition to the new Board of Freeholders was form ulated and unanimously adopted:
 To the Honorable the Board of Freeholders to frame a charter for San Francisco: We the unemployed. respectfully petition your board to make provision in the charter ot San Francisco for the public employment of the unemployed. and we show that the condi- ton of industry is such that the number of operatives required to produce products of all kinds by the use of machinery and modern in- vention leaves constantly an ever increasing number of persons unable to obtain employ ment by reason of which the ability to con sume goods and products is diminished and that these causes lead rapidly to the produc- tion of more goods than be sold at a profit. and this in turn throws more men out of employment and thus panics are frequently produced. and the question of unemployed la ber is therefore the most serious question of the age; ard we further show to your board

POLICE COURT BUCAB0O AGAIN COnstitutionality of the Courts Brought in
 Question.
Ex-Judge Murphy Raises the Point in Case Before
 Judge Low.
If the Defendant Is Held to Answer the Supreme Court Will Likely
 Be Appealed To.

The bugaboo of the constitutionality of Police Courts ?, and will not down and it cropped up again yesterday.
 On the last occasion it was to have been tested before the Supreme Court in the case of Sidney Kellett. who had been convicted and sentenced by Judge Low for having burglars tools in his possession. Judge Low had instructed the Sheriff not to recognize an order for Kellett's release issued by Judge Campbell, who had accepted Kellett's bond on appeal. The matter was taken before Judge Carroll Cook. who decided that the committing magistrate could only accept bond on appeal and Kel- let's attorney took the case to the Su- preme Court.
 At that time Attorney Lemon was to argue the unconstitutionality of the courts. but Judge Low forestalled him by indorsing the order of discharge is- sued by Judge Campbell, and the buga- boo was once more removed.
 It looks ominous again. Yesterday Judge Low refused to transfer case in which Mrs Louise Kersten Is defendant The at torneys for the defense had asked for a change of venue, but the Judge held that under the law he could not trans Ter the case upon a mere allegation of prejudice. Bias on the part of the court had been alleged, because of the iudg- ment recently rendered, holding Cro- ner, the woman's associate, to answer before the Superior Court
 When the clerk of the court asked Mrs. Kersten to stand up for arraign- ment ex-Judge Murphy, one of her at torneys, made a motion to the effect that the Judge was not in a position to try the case as committing magistrate. from the fact that the police courts were unconstitutional, being establish ed by special legislation. The Judge promptly dismissed the motion and the case went on.
 It is now in the record that the un- constitutionality of the court has been called in question and if the Judge should decide upon holding the defend- ant to answer before the Superior Court the probability is that ex-Judge Murphy will test the question before the Supreme Court.
 Judge Low, as well as Judges Con Ian and Joachimsen believe that the constitutionailty of the courts cannot be called in question, but it is consid cred better that the matter should he settled definitely without unnecessary delay by the highest court.

4 DEPOT 10 BE PROUD OF

AN FRANCISCO will find her new ferry depot worth having waited for, when within few months she comes to occu- py 1t. All the dreary waitings in the dirty, old-fashioned. grimy room. all the sneers of visitors and the complaints of residents, will be forgotten in the pleasure of taking possession of the commodious, well-arranged structure at the foot of Market street, which Is one of the finest of its kind in the world.
 The impression produced by the new ferry building is at once an effect of lightness and of strength. It Is steel framed throughout, fireproof of course. for no wood has been used in Its con struction except in window sashes and doors. It seems to have been made or steel and glass. so enduring and so we'll lighted it looks.
 From north to south the ferry build ing measures 656 feet. Its width Is about one-quarter its length, except where the great central tower strides Tn advance of the main building. This tower measures 275 feet to the ball of the flagstaff, and contains winding staircase, which nimble-footed view hunters may climb to look upon the bay ringed round with cities. The main building consists of two lofty stories ana a meZZanlne story aDONS- AAo "oNi'' are of galvanized iron, the roof of cor rugated iron, and the pale gray green stone from Colusa's quarries covers the unlovely skeleton.
 Behind the great. ugly fence which IS soon to be torn down, and the old post office station which Is a blot on ones view of the new depot, there is still the old temporary sidewalk Twelve feet below this. though, blanks are to be placed and the distance filled in with sand topped by a steel support, over which the new concrete sidewalk Is to be laid.
