Fritz has for the second. time the role of protector for chil- dren who are neglected by their male parent, and he feels proud of tho 2chievement. A week ago Joseph Thomp- son, a longshoreman, residing on Perry street, between Harrison and Bryant, was brought before him for getting drunk and neglecting his family by wastitg all his wages. The Judge made him promise to take the pledge and in future give his wife enough money to support her and the children, and continued the case for a | week. Yesterday Mrs. Thompson ap- | peared in court and said that her husband { had taken the pledge and had not tasted a drop since, giving her all the money | she needed. The Judge continued the case | for another two weeks to seg how Thomp- | son behaved himself. | . Yesterday he had a similar case before | him.

Widber, ex-City Treasurer, charging him with the embezzlement of $13,000 of the city funds, was, on motion of Attorney Peixotto, for the defendant, dismissed by Judge Cook yesterday on the ground that the sixty days during which the trial should have been held had elapsed. The point was made in view of the decision of the Supreme Court in the Bergerot case from San Jose. The Judge in granting the mAtion said he would nke to have the point decided upon by the Supreme Court, but the Dis- trict Attorney says he is doubtful if he can appeal in view of the fact that the indictment was dismissed, which practi- cally ends the matter.

The Supreme’ Court decided vesterday that John A. Howard of Visalia must be punished for attempting to - obtain the bounty for dead squirrels offered by Tu- lare County, on rodents’ tails imported from Alameda County. The animals became such a pest to farmers that the Board of Supervisors decided to offer a bounty of 3 cents each for their destruction, It was provided that the tails of the squirrels must be produced and that an afidavit must be presented stating that they were killed in Tulare County. The people of Visali: and vicinity soon exhausted the supply of squhrelé(and Haward went over into Alameda ( County and collected 12,000 of the necessary tafls. He and two friends presented the evidence and made affidavit that the animals had been killed within county limits.

The lack of good faith on the part of Chinese immigrants seeking to pass through this country on their way to Mexico was forcibly illustrated yesterday in the case of three coolies who swore be- fore the Chinese Bureau that they were en route to a town in Mexico, near (i border line, under contract to work for three firms, of which they gave the names. Something in their manner aroused the suspicions of the Chinese Bu- 1eau and they were denied a landing. In the meantime Customs Collector Stratton addressed a confidential letter to the American Consul in the Mexican town ramed, inquiring whether there were such firms there as were mentioned by | the Chinese. The Collector received a reply yesterday informing him that no | such firms existed and never had. The Chinamen will be deported.
