Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Feb. 8. “Oh, my God! Judge, in mercy don’t send my boy to Folsom. Oh, not to Fol- som. He bas always been a good boy and I know he s not bad at heart.” This was the pitiful plea of the heart- broken mother of Frederick C. Dannaker, who had pleaded gullty to a charge of at- tempted burglary and who was up before Judge Greene to-day for sentence. And having shrieked the words through the courtroom the aged mother fell In a swoon. Before sentence was pronounced T. E. Guther, John D. Adams and Mrs. Danna- character of the'young prisoner. The mother also declared that her son had upported her ever since his father's eath two years ago and that he had al- ways been a good boy. for the mother, declared the law must take its course. McCoy and Downing, her boy’s accomplices in the attempted bur- glary of a local gun store, had each been given five years' sentences. However, In view of Dannaker’'s youth—he is 23—and the showing as to his previous good char- acter, the court made some allowance, pronouncing his sentence as three years at Folsom prison. As.the sentence was pronounced Mrs. Dannaker made her pi ful plea. She is poor and unable to pay the fare as far as Folsom. { 1 E \ i R A R R LR AR AR S A AR R A R AR P R S R R AR AR SRR SR PR Y Les Amis Club Dance Deferred. | OAKLAND, Feb. 8.—The ball which was to have been given by the Les Amis Club at Klinkner Hall, Goiden Gate, to-morrow night has been postponed for a week.

NO COURT s‘rmoomm .Tudge Fritz Attempt! to Take the Evidence in a Felony Case in Long Hand. The dlctum of Judge Carroll Cook that Police Judges must in the absence of a stenographer take the testimony in | lotg-hand in felony cases was obeyed by Judge Fritz yesterday afternoon in the case of William Watson, engineer for the jouthern Pacific C ‘ompany, charged with manslaughter. Watson was in charge of the special from San Jose Sunday morn- ing, January 14, which ran over and killed Miss R Lawler at the crossing of Sev- enteenth and Harrison streets. The preliminary examination was set for yesterday afternoon, but neither of the court stenographers was available, and rather than disappoint the witnesses the Judge decided to proceed and take the evidence in longhand. Watson made a long statement detail- ing the circumstances leading to the ac- cident, which was practically a repetition of his evidence at the Coroner’s inquest, and the Judge laboriously took it down Wora for word. Then he got tired and the job, continuing the case till next Tuesday, when he expressed the hope that he would be able to procure the services of a stenographer. e —— SOUTHERN PAUI!'IC REVENUE.
