 CHARLES MARTINS TASK Charles Martin. a young man who has been drunk and in jail the most of the time for some weeks. was before Justice Burnett again yesterday. He got ten days in the county jail, and in passing the sentence the justice took occasion to deliver a lecture to the defendant. which ought to entitle the lecturer to honorary membership in the Good Templars. In conclusion he told Martin that the time he had given him was not intended as a pun ishment but as period, nov that the year was drawing to d close, in which he could formulate better plans for the. coming year. He hoped he would employ every minute of the time in drawing up q reinforced and cop per-riveted resolution which would last him at least until 1903.
 HAS EARNED GOOD HEALTH MT Charles Seymour arrived here on Saturday last from Mare Island hos pitsl. having stopped for time in Los Angeles and other southern Cali fornia cities. Mir. Seymour is d health seeker, and says he already notes in dications of improvement. There is no good citizen but who will sincerely hope for him an ultimate recovery, for his condition is the result of good blood shed for his country. He was under Captain McCalla on the occasion of Admiral Deweys impromptu celebra- tion in Manila bay, and later wniie patroling the city of Manila was shot through the lungs. He recovered sui ficiently from his wound to be sent by the government on q twenty-months cruise in the south seas with an expe- dition headed by Prof. Agassiz, and in the hope that the voyage and mild eli mare would restore him to health. It did so in a large measure, but he was so unfortunate as to have spar fall across his breast and further irritate his wound. He is no.- able to be around the street, and has good reason to hope for complete recovery by dodS ing a rigorous climate.
 MARTINEZ SEQUESTRA Hernando Nartinzes, who was con victed at the last term Of court O. selling liquor to an Indian. and who was sentenced to sixty days in the county jail and to pay a fine of s1O0, completed his term or imprisonment yesterday. On taking the pauper's oath he was released. Martinez's ser- vice in the county jail has been pretty continuous for the last year. When the present administration came into power at the beginning of this year. Martinez was found in jail. He was then awaiting trial for selling liquor to an Indian. He was convicted of that ofIense and was given a jail sen tence. Within twenty-four hours after his release he was brought back, charged with the same kind of an of fense. It is the sentence for that one that he has just put behind him. When turned out yesterday a deputy asked him when he might be expected back. Martinez said never for fooling with a combination of liquor and In Gians. If they have to depend on Mar tinez the Pimas and Maricopas may as well join the great total abstinence movement, which is gaining strength in this country, and which will reach high tide in about two weeks.
