of Malicious Mischief.

John OBrien. George Smith and Hans
Christensen, Mission toughs. were hand
ed over by the police yesterday to Dep
uty Sheriff Butts of Redwood City, where

The defendants were at the Butchers
picnic at San Jose last Sunday, and on
the way home they left the train at Mill
brae for a minute or SO and broke all
the windows in the station house, drove
the agent out of the place, and stoned
q Chinese who happened to be at the
station After returning to the train they
showed their feet through the windows
of the car and created disturbance gen
orally.
On the arrival of the train at the Va
lencia street station they were arrested
by Policeman Connell who was on the
train, and were booked on the charge of
malicious mischief. The cases were call
ed in Judge Mogan's court yesterday, but
as the offense was committed in San Ma
teo County they were handed over to
Deputy Sheriff Butts, who had warrants
for their arrest The Southern Pacific
Company and the police are determined
to make an example of the Mission
toughs, who on every occasion raise a dis
turbance and destroy property.

HOW PRISONERS
EVADE THE LAW
TWO BONDS FORFEITED IN THE
POLICE COURTS.
Guiseppi Giorso and Frank Wall Fail
to Appear and Bench Warrants
Issued for Their Arrest.

Two bonds were declared forfeited In
the Police Courts yesterday, and it is
doubtful If in either case the bondsmen
will be called upon to make the bonds
good.
Guiseppi Giorso was arrested on July
80 for an assault with a deadly weapon.
He fired three shots at his son-in-law
Guiseppi Uccelli, who has a vegetable
garden at Ocean View, and 1t was not the
first time he had made such an attempt
to get rid of him. He was released on
935 Folsom street, who qualified on half
interest in 40 acres in Calaveras County
and Michael Hayes, who qualified on
house and lot at 16 Lapidge street.

other term in jail for the protection of the
public.
The case was called in Judge Mogan's
his appearance. The Judge ascertained
that he had been released on bonds on
Monday, the sureties being Martin Quin-
Ian, an attorney who haunts the Police
at 222 McAllister street. The bonds were
for $500, and the Judge declared them for

for Wallis arrest, fixing the bonds in $1,000.
