turned to aversion and she retailiated

Such was the strained relationship
between Ferdinand and Irene when he
forced an entrance to her boudoir Fri
day night and importuned her to bury
the hatchet. She haughtily declined to
participate in the proposed interment.
and in disappointed rage Ferdinand
struck here upon the right eye, discol-
oring that erstwhile bright organ, and
Systematically proceeded to inflict fur
ther bodily injury, when her cries at
tracted the attention of Miss Ellen
Cowen, occupying an adjoining apart
ment, who heroically flew to her aid.
Instead of staying the punitive fist of
Ferdinand. however, Miss Cowen re-
ceived 1t on her face, and the enraged
athlete had both ladies literally down
and out" before he ceased his attack.
Against the name of Ferdinand Roll
lender on the Police Court docket are
inscribed three separate charges. Miss
Greye accuses him of assault and bat
terry and disturbing the peace, and Miss
Cowen is the complainant in another
battery charge. The case was put over
till tomorrow.

Stewart Donaldson of San Lorenzo
went to an O'Farrell-street playhouse
Friday evening and disturbed the peace
to such an extent that policeman
was called in to remove him. While
escorting Stewart to the exterior the
policeman discreetly searched his
pistol pocket and was rewarded by
finding therein a fully loaded revolver.
So carrying a concealed weapon was
added to the charge of drunk and
disorderly'' originally intended by Mr..
Donaldson's captor.
What do you mean by raising a row
in theater and carrying such a mur-
derous looking arrangement as that ?'
quoth Judge Mogan to Mr.. Donaldson,
and pointing with censorious digit at
the big pistol.
''Weel, yer Honair," was the reply,

'Hoot, moni" retorted the court,
you ought to be ashamed of yourself.
A combination of drunken man and
loaded revolver is bad at any time or
place or under any circumstances, and
in a crowded playhouse it is positively
public danger. 1 suppose if the act

appreciation of histrionic worth was
shocked"
Mr.. Donaldson evaded the issue by
declaring he could get the best cit
izens of San Lorenzo to testify that
his character in that thriving town is
above reproach.

Fireman William Gernandt disap-
pointed some of the wiseacres in Mo-
gan's court yesterday when he appear
ed in response to the bench warrant
issued for him the previous day. He
was out on $40 bail pending examina-
ton on charge of tolerating ill-treat-
ment of his young daughter by her
mother, and when he failed to appear
at the appointed time it was freely
opined he had forfeited his bond and
left the city. In explanation of his
absence on that occasion he yester-
day informed the court that he was
compelled to be on duty at the engine
house.
Gernandt's wife, a chronic invalid,
is alleged to have abused her little
girl by striking her savagely with a
potato masher and sticking the scis-
sors points in her head while cutting
her hair. The husband and father
pleads ignorance of the iIl-treatment.

fatty and emphatically contradicted
each others testimony yesterday morn
ing while Police Judge Fritz was try
ing to get at the facts of the assault
case in which the ladies were princi-
pals. Mrs. Dondero had Mrs. Dunn ar
rested on charge of attacking her
with a deadly weapon and incidentally
informing her that she was "a dirty
dago," and also that she was full of
vino" all of which Mrs. Dunn posi-
lively denied, and supplemented the de-
NAL with the accusation that Mrs. Don
dero had Kissed uncomplimentary allu-
sions to her nationality. she (Mrs.
DUNN being a native of the Emerald
Isle.
The ladies reside in neighborly pro-
pinquity at Mason and Greenwich
streets. but the evidence showed there
had been nothing neighborly about
their social relationship. Mrs. Dondero
averred that Mrs. Dunn seldom or new
er neglected opportunity to hurl insult
ing epithets at the Dondero household,
her antagonism to the extent of in
f1icting bodily injury upon representa-
tive members thereof.
"She struck me over the head with a
pistol" swore Mrs. Dondero. "and as
sauIted me with a bag containing a
school slate. More than that, she hired
small boys to follow me and whistle
derisively."
She called me dirty old Irish
thing was Mrs. Dunn's plea, "and
never struck her except in self-de-
Tense"
As the casus belli was not made clear
and as the court was not perfectly sat-
isfed with that phase of the prose-
cutting testimony relating to the use of
the pistol, the case went over till next
week. Each side Of the controversy

A tale of marital discord was next
unfolded in Mogan's court, the prin-
cipal narrators being Mrs. Frank
Flynn and her husband, who dwell in
infelicity at S1s Federal street. Mr..
Flynn is a longshoreman, and his
wife supervises his domestic establish
ment.
According to the story told by Mrs.
Flynn, her husband has been in the
habit Of getting drunk twice a week,
and while Influenced by Bacchus he
has regularly chastised her with a
broomstick, shifting her upon the
head and arms with the implement
Mr.. Flynn, on the other hand, swore
that he was never first to introduce
the broomstick as medium of en-
forcing domestic discipline, but while
defending himself from his helpmeet's
attacks he may have accidentally
''jabbed" her with the unmufflled end
of it. He cited one instance in which
Mrs. Flynn figured as deliberately
pouring hot tea upon his neck as he
sat awaiting his vesper meal. Mrs.
Flynn acknowledged the scalding, but
averred it was accidental, as Mr..
Flynn, with the recklessness of intox-
ication, had swung his arm and
struck the hand in which she clutched
the teapot.
The parties will reappear in court
tomorrow and be informed of what
the Judge thinks of their respective
sides of the case.

All restaurateurs accused of selling
liquor without license were dismissed
yesterday by Judge Fritz three test
cases having fallen through for lack
of evidence sufficient to warrant con-
viction.
There were about a score of these
cases on the docket, the defendants
being keepers of small restaurants in
the Latin and Slavonian quarters and
each of them demanded a jury trial.
The prosecuting testimony in the test
cases was submitted by policemen,
who had donned plain clothes and,
accompanied in each instance by a
woman, endeavored to purchase
drinks from the defendants without
ordering food at the same time. In
each case the jury seemed to think
that a caterer should be allowed to
supply his customers with liquid ap-
petizers before they order solids.
At any rate, the prospect of secur-
ing a single conviction appeared to
be so remote that the prosecuting at
torney suggested dismissal Of the en-
tire bunch of complaints.
