 "If 1t is that" said the judge, II wish they would attach a few extra cars, for it is very crowded in here. l don't think this is emancipation day, however. The defendants all look guilty to me" ''They all look alike to me- said the sheriff '1 know some of them are guilty and suppose they all are.'
 Suppose you call on the guilty ones to come forth" said the judge.
 That's a fact l have got the call on them,' said the sheriff. Those who wanted to plead guilty were told to come forth and forthwith they acknowledged the corn and were fined, some one thing and some another.

 "I suppose Mamie was small sized cyclone" said the judge.
 Judge" said a lawyer, her mother is out of the city. She left on the cyclone and I would like to have the case con tinued until she Is found.
 Mamie Is in Jail now, judge said the sheriff. "She can't get away If the case is continued"

DISCRIMINATING AGAINST
JAPANESE.

The community here was Justly
indignant when, in July last, DR.. l..
T. Cofer, the u S. quarantine officer,
submitted the wife of the Japanese
Consul to Honolulu, s. Okabe, aud
two japanese unmarried ladies to
great indignities under the pretsxt
of examining them on account of
the bubonic plague which at the
time was prevalent in the Orient
from where the ladies came. The
Japanese ladies were cabin passsn-
gers and the discrimination shown
against them was very impolitic
move Of the federal officer. None
of the white cabin passengers we're
examined and yet they all arrived
from the Orient. The matter crea'-
ed a stir here as we'll as on the
Mainland and official remonstra-
tions have been msds 10 Washing
ton by the Japanese Government.
That the local associ alton of medi-
cine m IN uphold Dr.. Cofer is only
natural as WITHDRAWING is the prin-
cipal object of the association, and
yet every member would have

daughters had been subjected TO

bine and begin cutting prices, the
