B. Bradbury literally spat upon one of the ordinances duly made and provided for the government of the people of San Francisco. He was ar- rested instanter and found guilty of a misdemeanor, but it was not until erday afternoon—more than two re after he had exhibited his ability to shoot saliva at a mark that he began to serve the sentence Im- posed, He will be released from cus- tody at 11 o'clock this morning, duly ened, it is hoped. It is not every day, even in this city, that one can find a miilionaire doing time, and, naturally enough, any num- ber of people called at the Broadway jall last night in the hope that they might be allowed a glimpse of the irascible capitalist. He had forestalled their curiosity, however, by giving in- | structions to his Jjailers to inform visitors that he was not in. He was, nevertheless, and it was plain he did not like it. The act for which Bradbury put in | the night in jall was committed early in | May, 1397, The Board of Supervisors d just taken occasion to pass an ordinance against expectorating in public buildings, on sidewalks or streetcars. On the ill-fated day of his arrest Bradbury was riding on a cable- car. On the floor of the car a fly was crawling. The temptation was too much for the millionaire. He puckered and missed the fly, but hit the floor. The conductor saw the expectoration and remonstrated with his “fare” for violation of the ordinance. Bradbury said some cutting things about the ordinance, the cable company and the conductor and sald he would expec- torate when and wherever he chose. The conductor warned him not to repeat the act. This was like throwing a red rag to a bull. To show his in- dependence of conventions, Bradbury spat again. The conductor said noth- | ing until he sighted a policeman, when he lodged a complaint against the mil- lionaire. In the Police Court a few later Bradbury was found guilty Judge Low and sentenced to twen- four hours in-the County Jail. His attorney appealed from that judg- t, basing it on the ground that the law provided for a fine as an alterna- tlve and the Police Judge had not | - recognized that provision. | Pending the decision:of the appeal Bradbury was released on bail and | nothing more of him was heard until | the following September, when he was | arrested for battery. The aged mil- | lionaire had so allowed his flery tem- | per to get the better of him that he had kicked a plano tuner downstairs | in his hotel. A jury took just six min- utes to convict him of the offense, and ‘this second defeat so chastened the spirit of the man of millions that he might never haveé been heard of again in police circles had it not been for that appeal. Things move slowly in the Superior Court, however, and it was not till the 1st of this month that a trio of the Judges, sitting in bank, affirmed the judgment of the Police Court. The remittitur In the case was sent on Monday to Judge Treadwell, successor to Judge Low, and on a bench warrant issued under it Bradbury was taken into court. The millionaire was in- formed that he would have to go to jall. Through his attorney he asked that the court change the penalty to a fine. Judge Treadwell could not see it in that light. “This is not the place for such a motion,” he said. ‘‘The matter should have been attended to in the Superior Court. T have no power other than to pass judgment, and I order that you be imprisoned in the County Jail for twenty-four hours, and God have— and the sooner you get sooner you'll get out.” The millionaire and his attorney did not like the medicine. They asked that they be given some time to ar- range matters, and in a spirit of ac- commodation Bradbury was taken to the City Prison and confined in the office, while his attorney went to the Supreme Court and applied for a writ to review the case. He did not return to his client until nearly 3 o'clock with the information that the writ had been denied. ' Bradbury had been a model prisoner during the interim, as, not- withstanding the lack of amusement in the City Prison and the multiplicity of cracks In the flooring, he managed s0 to control himself as to refrain from squirting at any of them. In charge of Sergeant of Police Wolf and a Deputy Sheriff he was taken to the jail on Broadway and placed in a cell, in one corner of which was a cuspidor with a hole In the top so large that a man of Bradbury's ex- perience could make a dead center in the dark. there the $OI DI DI04+ D4 O+ O+ 040+04+O40 404040404 Q4+ O+ O+ O 4040404 0404040404 0+ O+ Q4 0404040404 OHOHOI0OIO40 ADVEETISEMENET - CLOTH — AND — CLOAKING DEPARTMENTS We have now opened our full assortment of NEW VENETIANS, COVERT CLOTHS, BROADCLOTHS, AMAZON CLOTHS, BEAVERS, LA- DIES CLOTHS, TWEEDS, GOLF CLOAKINGS, BICYCLE SUITINGS and ENGLISH CORDUROYS. all shades and Blacks GOLF CLOAKINGS assortment. .
