fashion in Judge Wilcox's court yes
terday morning. While the grist was
large. the brand was very much upon
the commonplace order However. the
burst of speed developed in the dispo-
sition of police cases was quite out of
the ordinary. Seventy-one cases were
emblazoned upon the docket At the
expiration of eighty minutes the decks
were cleared and the court adjourned.
The greater portion of the offenders
were the regulation Saturday night
DRINKS, with several punches of ORR
entail gamblers added. One of the
peculiar features of the docket was
that in almost every case called a
plea of guilty was filed, which left
the Judge to do the rest and move
rapidly on to the next.
Twenty-Five Tags" were lined up be-
fore the bar of justice. In appearance
they greatly resembled the flag end OF
a Democratic torchlight procession af
ter tiresome sprint through a pros
porous saloon district. The manner
in which the cases were summarily
dispatched precluded any possibility
of His Honor listening to a recital of
life stories" or photographed
sketches by star performers. The Of
tenders of the peace and dignity Of
Puritanieal Honolulu passed along in
swift review in about the same fash
ion as hungry candidates indulging in
an advance upon bountiful free lunch
counter. All received the regulation
81 fine with the little odd dollar tackled
on as court costs. While the names of
many would not be found between the
covers of the 'sassaiety" Blue Book,
nevertheless there were many fami-
liar faces in line which knew the
ropes.
A bit of realistic reproduction of
Boxer warfare" enacted by All Tin
and All Chin brought both participants
in the affray before the court. Through
the friendly o4-ceS of a Chinese in
terpreter the police judge was inform
ed that the trouble would not lead to
international complications A brief lit
tie reprimand was awaiting the prin-
cipals. It was delivered in the usual
touching manner
Manuel da Souza didn't propose tax
ing any chances in facing the charge
of unrestrained profanity upon which
he was arrested several evenings ago.
Souza put up bail, which was forfeited
by nonappearance yesterday morning.
For the space of few minutes the
police court room greatly resembled
spectacular reproduction of "The
Taking of Picking" This was during
the trial of eighteen Chinese gamblers
who were arrested while engrossed in
the allurements of fan tan, and the
rapturous delights resulting from close
intimacy with che IA. Deputy
Sheriff Chillingworth acknowledged
that she did it with his strong left
hand aided by several faithful lieu
tenants. The ringleaders speedily
came to the conclusion that they were
up against one of the surest thing
games that has been their sad fortune
to meet for some time, when their
cases were called. Each pleaded gull
ty to the charge of gambling, thereby
enriching the treasury to considerable
extent. Five domars and costs each
was the fine paid by the Chinese.
