SKIPPER DEfIEl
BY SEA.LAWYER
ON JOHN ENA

When the sailing ship John Ena, the
first vessel to register under the Ha-
waiian flag in sugar-carrying trade
from Honolulu to the mainland, ar
rived at San Francisco few weeks
ago, Lester Lewis, one of her crew,
stepped ashore with q whole skin and
confidence in himself unimpaired by
happnings on the voyage.

Roaring" Billy Silver, says the Exam
iner.
Lewis is a sea lawyer, of the kind
most obnoxious to the captains of
the old school. Instead Of obeying he
dares to question. And under the
strict regulations guarding sailors the
captains dare not lay a finger on him.
The John Ena, an American four
masted ship, was four days out of Mel
bourne with Lester Lewis at the
wheel.
Capt. C. ". Olson saw something
he did not like about the steering and
told Lewis SO, calling him "chuckle-
headed fool
Two Hiah Crimes Of Sea.
To the captains utter astonishment
Lewis dropped the wheel, allowing the
ship to broach and heaved himself at
the captain, threatening to pound him
into a jelIyfsh. The mate stepped in
and separated the pair. Lewis had
committed two high crimes of the sea
dropped the wheel and attacked his
captain-yet nothing happened to him.
The next day. back at the wheel, the

LEADS Girl TO
SWALLOW POISON

With only some burns in her throat
and some slight discomfort as re-
minder, Madeline Weir is alive today
and has almost recovered from the ef-
fects of creolin. which she drank
Saturday night in an attempt TO end
her life. The girl lives with her pa
rents in the Nonpareil hotel on Bereta-
mia street. and it was in the grounds
of the hotel she drank the liquid.
The girls attempt at suicide follow
ed a small family argument, the sub
ject being a young man with whom
the girl insisted in going despite her
mothers objection. When Mrs. Weir
slapped her Madeline seized bottle
of creolin and, running into the yard,
swallowed the contents. Her cries at
tracted the attention of neighbors and
she was carried into a house next door
before her mother knew she had TAX

were summoned and immediate treat
ment prevented serious consequences.

ASHFORD MUM
ON NATTER OF
JAIL PENALTY

Although on various occasions he
has stated from the bench that it
would be the policy OF his court To
upheld the Judgment and sentences Of
the police court where IL could be
done properly and reasonably. Circuit
Judge e. W. Ashford said today that
il would be improper for him to make
any statement sas to his approval or
disapproval of plan of the district
magistrate to send convicted gamblers
to jail =: .-... ......... =.
During the trial OF a lottery case in
his court today Judge Ashford was
asked for his opinion regarding the
new sentence plan in police court, and
principally as to what would be done
as regards sentences Of gamblers who
appeal their cases and who are con-
yicted in circuit court
Wait and see, was Judge Ashford's
answer. .-.e
Deputy City Attorney VIII Garden
says that, when person charged
with gambling is convicted in an ap-
peal case, he will ask the court to
impose a Jail sentence.
We want to aid the police in
stamping out ,ehefa, paikau and all
other forms of organized gambling,
he declares In fact, we are going
after all forms of gambling. We are
going to ask that those convicted of
gambling be sent to jail
City Attorney Brown said today
that there was little doubt in his
mind but that the circuit court would
uphold the police magistrates de-

nlents made by Judge Monsarrat and

Judge MonsarTat makes little

statement OF Saturday that he will
give jail sentences TO all gamblers

often used for gambling, or in game

n"There is a statute on the books
which the city and county attorney
night use TO advantage, if his office
wants to break up gambling, stated
Judge Monsarrat today. 1T is the
tfoyision that the owner or renter

poses, II the owner or renter is aware

Speaking u his views of fines and
1ail sentences as applied to gambling
cases, Judge Monsarrat said:
Il intend to send to Jail all lottery
owners or agents and all men arrested
behind barricaded doors, in a regular
gambling place which is known as
such. But where a few men are play.
