was so weird that the bailiff did not
blame the defendant for desiring to
keep his head away from public view.
Take him out and get the remainder

again needs the tonsor.''
After loving Frank Enos for two con-
secutive years with all the warmth Of
her Castilian soul, Pauline Gonzales
met Jason c. Russell, an ex-soldier, and
abruptly transferred her affection to
him. Frank whined, then pined and
finally became vengeful Meeting the
tickle senorita and her new flame as
they walked arm-in-arm along Stock
ton street, near Pacific, last Friday
evening, the Tilted one struck his rival
a violent blow on the face, and by way
of retaliation was promptly knocked
down. Springing to his feet, Frank
drew a knife and was about to stab
Jason when Pauline's fingers became
entangled in his hair and restrained
him until the policeman came.
He's re bad man" chirruped Pau
line, pointing to Frank, who stood be-
fore Judge Mogan, land fears me for
me life. l lufs heem not, and to jail
you please heem send"
'TI think it over occasionally until
July a." said his Honor, glancing at
the defendant, who looked as if he did
not particularly care whether he was
discharged or ordered to instant exc

from the courtroom by the stalwart
Jason.
'T'lI lay odds of three to one that you
can't reform her, said Judge Conlan
to Rebel George the evangelist, when
the latter pleaded for and obtained the
release of Josephine Mahoney, chronic
vagrant. George said he was no longer
a betting man else he might take the
wager.
That incident occurred less than n

Mahoney was before his Honor Judge
Conlan again on the same old charge.
She made no attempt to defend her
latest fall from grace. She simply
couldn't stay sober-that's all there was
to it, and what was the use of talking,
anyway?

o. Evanson spent one of the recent
cold nights in a Washington street
lodging house, and the bed coverings
being insufficient to convey to his
emaciated body the degree of warth
essential to comfortable slumber, he
slyly pilfered blanket from neigh
boring bunk and spread it over him
self Thus protected he slept soundly
until morning, when he inadvertently
took away with him the extra blanket
and exchanged 1t for breakfast in a
Kearny street restaurant. Judge Mogan
will hear further details next Tuesday.
Down from Elko, New, came Bernard
McCloskey, tall and stalwart, and when
his money was all spent he begged for
food from housewives In the Western
Addition. Those who declined to feed
him he twitted with stinginess, and
when they attempted to escape his
TRADE by shutting the door in his face
he prevented them doing so by placing
his foot inside the portal. Judge Con-
Ian gave him a scathing lecture and six
months in the County Jail to digest it.
A. M. Oslo had George Lamont a
milk distributor, arrested for threaten
ing to shoot him with a pistol loaded
with blank cartridges, and on the wit
ness stand Mr.. Oslo showed such small
regard for the majesty of the court that
he brought upon himself sharp repri-
mand from the bench.
After the case had been dismissed
Oslo said in audible tones to Lamont,
'Tll fix you yet" and when the Judge
