Most worthy Chin Jack" said Chin
Len, by coming to me first my. house
you have greatly honored; but, alas,
your visit must be unfruitful, because
the sum you seek is not now in my pos
session. My grief at being unable to
accommodate you is most profound"
Then, oh, sincere helper of the
poverty stricken" said Chin Jack you
may be able to collect from your as
sembled cousins the desired sum-"
My sorrow you greatly augment by
voicing that suggestion, oh, Chin Jack"
said Chin Len, for it is against the
first rule of our superb code of social
etiquette for a host to borrow money
from his guests
The subsequent proceedings were
variously narrated to Judge Conlan by
Chin Len and a benchful of his cou-
sins They all averred, however that
Chin Lens final refusal to satisfy Chin
Jacks request was abruptly followed
by Chin Jacks producing a revolver
and a large knife, both of which he
brandished so menacingly that the
party dispersed in great disorder. Chin
Len found safety by fleeing to an in
ner chamber, barricading the door, es-
Gaping through a window and notifying
the police, who caught Chin Jack with
the weapons in his hands and rage in
his heart.

Judge asked Chin Jack.

Mrs. Annie Karino of 1911 Kearny
street stroked her gown with toll
calloused hands as she told Judge Fritz
of how her six-year-old son had been
deprived of two front teeth by Louis
Cadamatori cruelty pressing raw po-
tato against the tender little mouth.
She was employed in a cannery, and
that she was compelled to
lose half a days wages in order to
appear in court. Too bad that her
husband, who worked less steadily
than she did, would not suffice to prose-
cute her boys assailant. But she would
rather lose the half days wages than
have the defendant go unpunished.
A bright nfne-year-old girl testified
she saw Signor Cadamatori, who keeps

frowzled head with a heavy fist and
then press one of the tubers against
his lips, saying, Eat it," until the
child expectorated two teeth and much |
blood. A badly frightened boy told the
court a similar story.
Signor Cadamtori, heavy of frame |
and with a neck that would discount |
John l.. Sullivan's in "bullishness'' |
yrowled that he did not assault the
BOY, who had stolen the potatoes, but |

A Turkish gentleman baffied the |

defense.

Manning. that she was trained nurse
employed at the Hotel Metropole, Oak
