court, palpably moved to admiration
by Mr.. Anderson's profound knowledge
of prize-ring technique, in other
words. you knocked out the pane?'

But the night clerk insisted that Mr.
Anderson. although extremely elated
by winning certain bets which he had
made On Nelson, was fully conscious of
what he was doing when he shattered
the glass. 'Hurrah fer dot Beddlin
Nelson" Mr.. Anderson was alleged to
have shouted as he danced and .ducked
and feinted at his reflection in the pane.
and IL was reported also that prior to
delivering the damaging blow he
yelled, Come on, ye Denfer shift;
shtand oop und dake yer medicine like
Won leedle shendlernans."
As several spectators of the shadow
boxing were ready to corroborate the
clerks version of the incident, the
Judge pronounced Mr.. Anderson. guilty
and remanded him for sentence.
Mrs. Ella Roessing, accused Of peace
disturbance by Mrs. Marian L. West
Of 200 Natoma street, told Judge
Cabaniss that she was provoked to
anger by the complainants unjust al
lusions to the histrionic ability and
social standing Of her (A1rs. Roessing's)
sixteen-year-old daughter. Although it
was well known throughout the neigh
borhood that Miss Roessing was one of
the most: talented and respectable
artistes now appearing at the Grand
Opera-house, Mrs. West endeavored to
belittle the young lady's prestige by
circulating the canard that she was
merely a "supe," and a "back-row"
supe at that. In this libelous work,
Mrs. Roessing further averred, Mrs.
West was unquestionably aided and
abetted by Mrs. Mulligan, whom she
(Afrs. Roessing) saw there in court and
who would probably be called by the
prosecution. It was q sad commentary
on human nature, Mrs. Roessing de-
ciared, that no sooner does a person
begin to rise in the world than other
persons ATTEMPT to impede the ascen-
sion, although by so doing they cannot
possibly elevate themselves. But,
ho nj
continue to go onward and upward to
fame and fortune, despite what reck-
less tongues, inspired by malicious
hearts, might do with intent TO drag
her down.
Mrs. Roessing's reference 70 Mrs
Mulligan's presence in court and its
probable object had desired intirni-
datory effect, for that lady was not
called to testify But the prosecution
did summon one Benne Hevey to the
witness stand, and was sadly dis
gruntled when the spectacled young
man who responded glanced shrinking
ly at Mrs. Roessing and then declared
that he knew nothing about the case
and had nothing to say.
And it's well for you. Bennie Hevey,
that you haven't" calculated Mrs.
Roessing, for if l cut loose a~tellin'
what I know about you-but never
1t then developed that Mr.. Hevey
had said, or was reported to have said,
that Mrs. Roessing had served three
months Imprisonment for. disturbing
the peace and that she was neighbor-
hood pest. Under a sharp examination
Mrs. Roessing gradually confessed that
she had been incarcerated for the Of
fense and for the period mentioned, so
she was promptly adjudged. guilty of
the misdeDfeanor charged by Mrs.
West. Sentence to-day.
When the case of the People VS.. Will
liam Erik, disturbing the peace. was
called in Judge Fritz's court, a tall
woman arose from a back seat and
shouted:
He has no attorney. and 1t amt fair
to try him without one. move fer
continuance"
When the shock conveyed to the bail
ifs by such an untoward proceeding
had substded the Judge asked the fair
pleader If she were duly certificated
lawyer, and she replied in the negative
and added that she was the defendants
sister.
We'll, your motion IL granted" said
