o. Garibaldfs illustrious surname is
not his only claim to distinction. for
he was the first person arrested for
violating the new ordinance which pro-
hibits the driving Of vehicle SO that
one of its wheels rolls along the iron
of a street railway track while the
other revolves over the pavement.
When the Merchants Association
called the attention 'of the Supervisors
TO the Injurious effect which the Carl
baldi style of driving had upon the
bitumen-surfaced roadways of the city
the board promptly responded by pass
ing the proTiibitory measure referred to
and the police were instructed to run
in any one they might catch in the act
OF infringing it. One of the wheels OF
Q. Garibaldi's wagon was deepening
one Of the grooves that runs parallel
with and at regulation wagon-width
distance from the car tracks on Market
street when Patrolman NJ. J. Hennessey
scooped him in. and yesterday to Judge
Mogan the defendant pleaded ignorance
Of the new ordinances existence.
Five dollars or five days.
W. A. Small. who was brought back
from St. Louis to. answer Miss. Josie
Sinke's complaint that he had stolen
her diamonds, was arraigned and in
structed before Judge Fritz. He says
he will prove the accusation an alb
surdity,
Disappointment fell. to- the lot Of
many persons who assembled in Judge
.Fritz's' court Wednesday evening 20
listen to testimony in the case Of Max
Katzauer.. charged with having re-
ceived certain property which he knew
had been stolen from a Southern Pa
cific freight car. But a surprise was
sprung which more than compensated
for the failure to examine witnesses.
The hearing had been continued from
the morning session and when all was
ready for the. opening OF the evening
performance Attorney Allen, for the
defense, suddenly produced a writ of
prohibition which he had secured from
Superior Judge Kerrfgan during the ia
term, on the ground that on December
8, 1904, the defendant had been held TO
the Superior Court on exactly the same
charge which Judge Fritz was there to
hear against him. This announcement
was followed by an application: for the
release of Katzauer on habeas corpus,
and Attorney Kelly, for the prosecution,
was apparently very much startled by
the suddenness with which the opposi-
ton had. operated.
! The whole matter viii be heard be-
fore Superior Judge Trout on April s.:
After they had been married twenty
| three years it occurred to John Mysano
and wife that their mutual happiness
would be promoted by separation. so
they began dwelling apart, the grown
up children Of the couple accompany
\ ing the mother That was three months
ago, and the interim was apparently
less brimful of bliss than the disunited
ores had expected. for last Wednesday
they met in the office of a local attor-
ney. with the announced purpose Of
| effecting reconciliation and a resump
tfon of double harness. While the ne
/ gotiations were. III progress the wife
said or suggested Something that, net.
! tied the husband. with the result that
| he smote her and their adult son with
an umbrella. for. which he was arrested
and charged with assault. After the
facts had been fully explained. TO Judge
.Mogan he took them under advisenient
\ and wifi hand down a decision to-day
! W. ]. Cameron, known in police. cir
Giles as The Terror Of. Point Lobos, 3"
! was arrested several weeks ago for
running amuck in that suburb and
soaring some of the residents thereof so
/ badly that they still shudder when they
recount their experience: Charges of at
tempt to kill and carrying a deadly
weapon were entered against the man,
and the case was assigned to Judge
Mogan:s court With the intention Of
making as respectable an appearance in
that tribunal as he could with the aid
of purchasable auxiliaries. THE Ter
/ ror'' applied for and obtained perrnis-
sion to go forth and equip himself
with clean collar, and that was the
last seen of him in the Hall of Justice
until yesterday, when he was arrested
and sent un for arraignment
I'm afraid" said Judge Mogan, that
the conduct of the defendant in this
case has prejudiced me to such an ex-
teAt that it would be better for both of
Ms and more in the line of justice if ne
were tried in another court. So I will
transfer his case to Department No. 4.
where l. am sure he will be given fair
treatment"
!. Having thus sverted a conscience

case of Mary Fogg, charged with ;petty

tale ef Frederick Felix. the complain

of mans trust and woman's peridy.
They met ia a Kearny street home of
Terpsichore; where Mary Fogg nightly
