ematician. "how much easier Il b going

OF the year In Roman numerals!

Roman numerals for2'' said the rudddy
buMness man.
Maybe You don't" the pals mathema-
tician answered, "but notice the difference.
In Arabic figures Il has taken just four
figures TO write the number Of the year
ever since the year 1000. and It win take
no more till the year $685. But In Roman
numerals the year 1000 was written with .
single letter M We shall never get back
to one letter again.
Now for this year II takes nine letterA
sMDCCCxCIx-' And think OF 1SSS. which
we can easily remember. Then II took
thirteen letters. 'MDCCcLxxxvIII.' That
was the hardest year to write Of the whole
Christian era thus far.
but next year. 1900. II win drop right
down to three figures. sMCM-s And . hum
dred and one years hence II win 90 to two
letters. NM And how long do you think
It win be before another year comes az hard
to write as 1sSS?.'
II don't know" said the rudy business
man, ahsently. He was wondering whether
he could turn the crank OF the messenger

tsced

mathematician. THAT win be written In

The ruddy business man was getting
more and more uneasy. And what-what
OF it?" he said
why. only think" said the pale mathe-
matician. 'how many generations OF our
descendants win never see year 20 short
as 1900. and how many and many more
win never see q year so long to write as
1855"
"And what of-what OF that?'s said the
rudy business man.
Nothing. ! suppose" said tho pale math-
ematican, "only those things always I'M

PRISONERS AT THE BAR.
Several Convicts Sentenced and Other
Cases Considered.

Armand Ginett, convicted of robbery,
was sentenced to life imprisonment in
Folsom Prison by Judge Cook yesterday.
On the 14th of October last Gillett and
J E. Lynch held up Frank Nones on a
doorstep on Montgomery street, near
Kearny. and took 81 % from his pockets.
Both criminals are notorious, having sew
eral prior convictions standing against
their names. Lynch was first arrested
and tried. He was given life in San
Quentin and his pal, Gillett, then fell
into the hands of the police. He was
tried, convicted and yesterday stood be-
fore the bar for sentence. When Judge
Cook pronounced judgment the prisoner
said not a word and the incident was
closed.
Mrs. Jane Mollarkey. who caused the
death Of Mrs. Nellie Suits and was con-
victed Of manslaughter, was sentenced to
eight years in San Quentin by Judge Cook.
Or October 10 last Mrs. Mollarkey threw
a lighted lamp at Mrs. Suits in lodging.

CELTS ARE OUT IN FORCE
BOOTHS PRESIDED OVER BY
PRETTY WOMEN.

The Catholic Ladies' Aid Bazaar con-
unues to draw goodsiZed crowds at Ma
tive Sons Hall, and the prospects are
exceedingly good for generous sum to
be added TO the fund being raised for
sweet charity's sake" notwithstanding
the fact that contrary to precedent no
admission fee is charged. Last night was
Celtic night, and the Celts were there in
goodly numbers prepared to enjoy them
selves and al the same time to contrib
ute to worthy cause. If any there were
who entertained the idea that because
they were allowed to walk in without be-
ing held up at the door they could at least
figure on having saved the usual price of
admission, they reckoned without their
host.
No one, man, woman or child, was per-
mitted to leave the hall until he or she
could furnish satisfactory proof that it
would be profitless to detain them longer.
The many tastefully and beautifully dec
Grated booths were well worth paying a
good price to see, and of course it was
simply impossible to look upon the many
pretty and useful articles displayed for
sale without making a purchase And
then there were the auctioneers, men
with abnormally developed voices, who
discoursed on the wonderful qualities of
their wares until hvpnotized snectators
parted with their cash almost uncon-
sciously but none the less irrevocably.
Then there were the hordes of pretty
girls who besieged each newcomer with
petitions to purchase chance for some
g-anything-for 10 cents or maybe
20 cents: There was no denying the ap-
peals of these youthful highwaywomen,
for even if the object of the attack was
proof against the captivating eloquence
of bright eyes and smiling lips it awaited
him naught, for he was surrounded and
importuned until he was compelled in
sheer desperation to produce" But the
stand-and-deliver methods of the girl
bandits left no feeling of resentment in
the breasts of their victims. The latter
invariably parted with the coveted dimes
in the best of humor, and the results of
the lawless methods employed is seen in
the stream of small change flowing into
the Golfers of the bazaar.
The auctioneers sold anything and
everything for what they could get, and
they usually managed to get very fair
prices, although bargains were not infre-
quent. The voting contests are progress
ing at a lively rate, but as is always the
case the friends of the various candidates
are holding back the bulk of their votes
until the closing days of the fair
The management of the fair is preparing
an entertaining programme for Dewey

lunch is served. The fair will close next

Police Sergeant Donovan yesterday
morning ordered torn down a notice
which had been posted by the Chinese
Tailors' Union, warning all non-union
tailors to join. When he first noticed the
placard there was an excited crowd

allowed to remain the old trouble which
caused the shooting of Ho Yu would
break out afresh. That the Chinese are
