bitous language with another female
neighbor. name not disclosed, at the
time and place designated in the afore-
mentioned document.
Mrs. Caesar, on the other hand, de-
clared that she and she alone was the
person to whom Mrs. Skala addressed
certain uncomplimentary remarks on
the occasion in question. and that she
(Mrs. c. would never feel secure from
oral, maybe physical, abuse until Mrs.
Skala feels the laws restraining hand.
Police Judge Mogan listened patient
ly to both pleadings and then continued
the case two Eveeks for the avowed
purpose of giving the ladies time and
opportunity to settle their trouble out
of court. They dwell next door to each
other on the 700 block OF Vermont
street, and their struggles with the
English language indicated that they
arrived from the Fatherland stimuli
taneously and not very long ago.

tory finger aimed at Mrs. Caesar. Il

with tone and gesture that would en-

Each lady was represented by able
counsel. but # couldn't get in half
dozen consecutive words to save its
life.
Promptly at high noon began the
wedding of Senor Carmelo de Cenar-
ruzabeitia and Senorita Eloisa Ar
menta, but unavoidable clerical and
oral difficulties with the name Of the
groom-elect delayed completion Of the
ceremony until after 1 o'clock and all
concerned were much fatigued.
In the first place. the blank space on
the marriage license was not long
enough to hold all the letters contained
in the full cOgnCmen of the male con-
tracing party, unless they were writ
ten so small as to be undecipherable by
the naked eye, and the clerk who filled
the document left several of them out.
This defect had to be remedied to make
the permit legally operative and con-
siderable time and photographic skill
were invested in the revision.
Then came the pronunciation of the
name by Judge MCgan, the officiating
magistrate, and that, too, used up
quite a lot of minutes that might have
been saved If the name had been more
reasonable as to length and euphony.
His Honor had studiously studied his
impressive part, but somehow his
tongue could not be attuned to rolling
off with ease the name of Carmelo de
CenarruZabeitia. The best he could
do was to utter it in sections, and even
then several syllables were dropped.
n. ha FOR
muIa necessitated introduction of the
groom's name twenty eight times, it
was not wondered at that his Honor
was both wild-eyed and haggard long
ere the last strands of the knot were
tied. He omitted his custom of salut-
ing the bride.
Senor de G. and his better half are
receiving congratulations at 1925 Du-
pont street.
George Beyer was fined $50 by Judge
Cabaniss for operating at the ocean
beach last Sunday a nickel-in-t the-slot
machine and offering money instead
Of merchandise for prizes. Two police
men in citizens clothing clinched the
charge against the enterprising Mr..
Boyer.
Catherine Wall. accused Of drunken
ness in a public place, told Judge
Fritz that she resided at the home of
her brother on Bryant street and was
eager TO return there, but when his
Honor assigned to a policeman the task
of finding out whether she spoke the
truth she confessed that she had no
brother and no settled home. Sentence
to-day.
BERTHE Alexander. well-dressed
young man from Chicago, was loiter-
ing on Dupont street at 1:S0 o'clock
yesterday morning and spoke rudely
to the policeman who asked for eX-
PLANTATION of his being there. His de-
meanor in Judge Mogan's court was
tame, however, nights confinement
among the chronic vagrants having ap-
parently enhanced his respect for the
laws majesty. He said he was a civil
engineer by profession and a tourist
for recreation, and that he was mere
" seeing the sights" when the Off
Ger overhauled him. Then the Judge
dismissed him.
Margaret Calvin, ''the aristocratic
soak" confessed to Judge Mogan that
she is a dipsomaniac. That was half
an hour after she had been sentenced
by Judge Fritz to thirty days impris-
onment. and his Honor Mogan con-

It developed that the woman is the
mother of two young children, who are
in their fathers custody, and that she
has a comfortable income from prop
erty owned by her. Arrested many
times for drunkenness, she was al
lowed to forfeit her bail money until
the magistrates decided to attempt
her reformation by consigning her to
prison. She has a handsome home in
this city and employed a maid to care
for it during her sprees.
DR.. George Herbein was fined 800
by Judge Mogan for practicing medi
cine without a license. He was arrest
ed and convicted in December, 1902, but
appealed to the Supreme Court, and
that tribunal has just decided that
the statute under which he was
prosecuted is perfectly constitutional.
