Early to bed and early to rise" is
not the motto of the lodging house at
35 Turk street, wherein George Curry,
gripman, shot and killed his faithless
wife on July 5. When the case of
Curry was called in Judge Mogan's
court yesterday three witnesses who
live in the house failed to respond and
bench warrants were issued for Miss
Martin, Miss Bachelor and Joseph
Deane, all of whom were found asleep
by the officer who went to bring them
in. They were ordered into custody,
with bail fixed at $40 apiece, and in
formed that if they do not appear this
morning they will be kept in Jail un-
til the examination is concluded.
Samuel Green, barber who sent an
obscene picture to a candy girl, was
found guilty of offensive conduct and
will be sentenced to-day by Judge
Fritz. The defendant declared that he
did not send the picture and that the
picture he was alleged to have sent
WIS an dOVSEIlSSHSII IOE a patent
medicine and is in unrestricted circu-
lation. But he failed to make good his
plea by producing a duplicate of the
advertisement, although he lRd been
given ample time to procure one.
One day about six months ago.
Peter Bargonas, teamster, hurled a
heavy rock at the head Of a fellow
workman, but the missile missed it's
intended mark and collided with the
skull of w. H. Curtis, passing citi-
zen, inf1icting such a severe injury
that Curtis was confined to the hos
pital several weeks. Bargonas pleaded
absence of malicious intent and as
Curtis seemed less eager to prosecute
than to have his doctors bill paid by
the defendant Judge Mogan contin-
ued the case from time to time in or
der to allow settlement on that ba-
sis. For several months Bargonas
regularly paid Curtis a portion of the
surgeons account, but at last he re-
fused to pay any more and 1t was for
thus violating his agreement that
Judge Mogan yesterday ordered that
he be placed in custody. The case will
be heard next Friday.
John Blackwood had a lucid inter-
val and realized that inability to pro-
cure intoxicants would be his only
means of resuming sobriety, so he had
himself arrested and charged with
vagrancy.
Il was beginning to see things" he
stated to Judge Mogan. THE blue
giraffe that followed me from Market
and Kearny streets to the Hall of Jus
tice disappeared when 1 entered the
elevator, but two pink parrots and a
ringt tailed zebra were with me all
night in the CELL

1T was to avoid them came here"
said Smith, for I knew that another
day of boozin' would be sure to bring
'em. Snakes would mean my finish.

After twenty-four hours total alb
stinence Mr.. Smith will be turned
adrift to meet temptation fairly in the
face and laugh at it.
1T was this way" Grace Hummel-
tenberg whispered to Judge Mogan as
she leaned across the bench to reach
his ear. You see 1 amt accustomed
to champagne little beer is all I
ever touch-but there was nothing
else to drink at that party and they
would insist. 1 didn't want to be un-
sociable, you know, and-well, 1 guess
the cop has told you the rest
Miss Hummeltenberg was notified

tain whether her story has been sub
stantiated by investigation.
