A REED SHAKEN WITH THE WIND Without Will Power, Courage, Ambi- tion, Energy or Hope the Dys- peptie Is Willing to Give Up the Struggle. The confirmed dyspeptic has as lit- tle interest in life any human be- ing. He is unfitted for its duties and is indifferent to its charms. He is un- able to enjoy the business and social relations that constitute the life of the average man. All his hopes are ab- sorbed by the ope hope to get well and again be able to enjoy the good things of life. Until this is realized he is sick at heart and feels himself 1o be of little use. Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are “the sufferer’s tree of life. They will cure him and bring him health and happi- ness just as sure and certain as he takes them. They are sure because they are natural and no other cure but a natural one is sure’ They act on the food and digest it just as well | as a stomach would. They contain exactly the same chemical properties as the digestive fluids of the stomach. By putting Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab- Jets in a bottle or jar with any kind of food, meat, eggs or vegetables, with sufficient amount of waier, the proc- ess of digestion is carried out just as it is in a healthy human stomach and in the samie timeé. There is conse- quently no unnatural disturbance of the digestive organs resulting from the use of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets.

Lupton, allas Larry ‘Welsh, &n ex-convict, charged with the murder of James Gilleece, an aged saloon-keeper, on the night of April 14, The trial’ will pro- ceed on Monday morning. In the aft- ernoon the closing arguments in the | case of Charles Sullivan, charged with | the murder of Special Policeman Rob- ert A. Sample, were heard in the samc court. Miiton held up Gilieece while he was on his.way:from his saloon at 31 Ninth street to his home at 16 Eleventh street. Gilleece thought it was one of his friends playing a joke on him, but was | disillusionized when Milton grabbed him by the throat and strick him sev- eral blows on the head with a steel bar. During the struggle Milton pulled a revolver out of his pocket and-Gil- icece was shot in the leg. Milton was arrested by Policemen KXeohane and Slattery and attempted to shoot Keo- hane, but i1he trigger ® snapped. Gil leece died about a month later. Milton has a long criminal record and was one of the Nolan gang. In Judge Cook’s, court seven jurors were securad to try the case of Frank J. Grundman, charged with the murder of Sheridan ‘H.

Grundman went to the auditor’s office.of the Southern Pa- cific Company at Fourth and Town- send streets on the afternoon of March 24 and asked to see Chipman, who was employed as a clerk there. Grundman claimed that Chipman ‘had debauched his wife and begged him to go away from the city so that his wife would be away from his influence. Chipman re- fused and, is alleged, used an offen- sive expres n in speaking of Mrs. Grundman.

It was stated yesterday by one of the prominent officials of the road that the lists include very nearly 100 names of emvloyes who have reached or passed the age limit. The pension board of the Southern Pacific has not held a meeting for a number of months, an¢ « { a fact which is attributed to the fre- quent and prolonged absences in the East of General Manager Kruttschnitt. While recently in this city President Harriman one day asked Kruttschnitt how the pension system was working, ; and received the reply from his general manager that for reasons stated above he had not had time to give it the at- | tention it deserved. Harriman sug- gested that the matter should not ba neglected any longer than possible, and | the following day the order went forth Lo the various departments.

Digby Johnston, Arrested for Obstructing| === Sidewalk Traffic, Defends His Case and| pespondent Over Continued Makes a Decided A hush fell upon the assemblage in Judge Mogan’s court when H, Digby Johnston entered the railed inclosure to pose in the dual capacity of accused and attorney. His tout ensemble was so widely at variance with the personai make-up of the average Police Court defendant or pleader that his stately entree compelled admiration, as well as curiosity. A tall, well-knit figure, cor- rectly coated, trousered and booted, with the upper portion.of the frock coat unbuttoned sufficiently to expose a see- tion of fauitlessly fitting vest and a severe combination of snowy linen and | sable necktie; a face of typical British roundness and ruddiness, flanked on each side by a carefully combed gray | whisker of the style variously and ir- { reverently - classified as “Dundrearies,” mutton chops,” - “sideboards” and sluggers”’—that was H. Digby John- | ston, former London barrister, now ) practicing lawyer and naturalized cit- | izen of the United States, as he faced the charge of obstructing a public | thoroughfare entered against him by Policeman John Kramer. | The officer stated that on Wednesday evening his attention was attracted by a crowd surrounding the entrance to a | clothing store on Kearny street, be- tween Bush-and Sutter, and the cause of its being, he ascertained, was a boy- cott of the store by certain dissatisfied employes and the efforts of them and | numerous sympathizers to persuade the | general public from purchasing goods | therein. While the boycott itself did |not call for the policeman’s interfer- | ence, the fact that those operating it were obstructing the sidewalk induced him to order them to “move on,”* an order which was obeyed, he said, by all except the defendant, who was no less conspicuous in the throng than in the court. When the witness attempted to enforce his command by clutching Mr. { Johnston's arm, that gentleman said, iin haughty tone, “Unhand me, sir,” and with equal hauteur demanded the policeman’s number, raised his cane as if to strike, and also uttered the words, “You dirty dog.” Whereupon he was arrested and charged as hereinbefore noted. A witness named Stevens corroborat- | ed the policeman’s story to the extent of stating that when he was ordercd to “move on” Mr. Johnston “got on hi dignity.” The defendant hoisted to his nose a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and asked the policeman if he, the defend- | ant, had refused to respect the law as | represented by him, the policeman. “Oh, you got on your dignity and wouldn't move,” replied the complain., ant. P ? | “Got on my dignity, eh?" “You swear ¥ got on my dignity, eh? “I'do,” was the calm: response. Then, turning to the bench, Mr. Johnston declared he had been “abused frightfully” by the officer. Having once served as a magistrate himself, he said ~indeed, having been chairmnan of ‘a board of London magistrates—he would ask if it were likely that he would re- | sist a poiiceman so long as that police- man acted within ‘his authority? Ng, and again and again, nos Tha fact af the matter, as related by Mr. Jehnston, was that while indulging in a post- prandial stroll on Kearny* stréet he saw the crowd afid-realizing that'it id not represent am organized movement he started in to obtain the names of its leading spirits, with a view tu prose- cuting them in the event that the pro- prietors of the boycotted eftablish- ment should decide to presecut “Then this policeman cama along, said Mr. Johnston, ‘“and abused me most detestably. I didn't refuse to move on, but I did protest against be- ing unnecessarily abused.” *'As there is radical conflict of what | seems to be reliable' testimony in this case,” deereed the Judge, “I will take it under advisement till to-morrow.” “Can't you dispose of it now?" in- | quired the defendant, . allowing_his glasses to drop from-his noss. “Nay, nay,” replied the court: ! Mr. Johnston gathered up his Jaw books, adjusted his spectacles and 'sal- lied forth, ‘With his. right hand raised as High as he could elevate it without remowvs ige his feet from the floor, Juan B. i Quiros swore in adulterated Spanish { that for one month from the moment of taking oath he would abstain from | tasting intoxicating liquid of any kind. Then he was told by Judge Fritz, to | whom the pledge was made, that he | was dismissed from custody. It was for persecuting his mother-in- {law that Senor Quiros found himself | participating in the procession of mis- | demeanants that filed past the bench of Fritz, His wife was the complain- ing witness and 'she testified ‘that for | thirty years her spouse had been a | devotee at the shrine of Bacchus, and while under the influence of that jolly { @0d he made a specialty of disturbing the tranquillity of his mother-in-law's existence. “If he could only be compelled to stop tippling,” suggested the witness, “I think he would be a better husband and son-in-law.” It was then the court administerea to Senor Quiros the oath that pledges him to abandon for thirty days a habit of thirty years’ standing. ‘When the Senora Quiros took the wit- ness stand to give her testimony one of the court attaches remarked that she had not come into court with clean hands. His Honor gallantly ignored the objection in its legal sense and just as chivalrously declined to notice the ample material evidenca to sub- stantiate its litera! phase. i Mrs. Ellen Nyhan, for selling ardent spirits without a license, was given a “sixty by sixty” sentence by Judge Fritz. Which means that if Mrs. Ny- ! han fails to pay a fine of 360 she will be compelled to spend sixty days in prison. 1 The complaint against Mrs. Nyhan stated that ghe supplied the bibulously inclined dents of the 400 block of Clementina street with intoxicants, al- though she had no municipal permit to do so and well knew that by so doing she was defying the law and cheating the city treasury. 8. A’ Pnihips, I | |r ly Impressive Figure from the church-studded city of Brook- Iyn, N. Y, who.annoyed and assaulted the employes of a Market street shoe store from which he had been dis- missed for cause, appeared before Judge Mogan for sentence, but he will not as- certain the exact extent of that luxury until this morning. ‘When he was arrested Phillips was cleased ‘on '$20 bail, and when the evi- dence , against him was -heard on Wednesday the Judge increased the bond to $50 and ordered him to appear yestergay morning for sentence. During the interim, however, his Honor learned that the "Brooklynite had ‘beén more offensive to his former fellow workmen than ‘had been originally stated, and when the additional testimony was con- | cluded 'yesterday morning the amount of the bond was doubled, It looks like “a hundred or.a huhdred” for Mr. Phil- | lips. | i et & Four soldier boys accused of burglary | lent variety to the coler scheme of the “pen” in Judge Mogan's:court. They were registered as Privates Ivan Er- nest, H. Romer, Harvey Ernest and Charles P. Herring, and their examina- tion developed the fact that the two Ernests were of one parentage. It was shown that some time during the small hours of yesterday the uniformed quar- tet wrenched the doors from a Pacific street shocting gallery, entered the es- | tablishment, picked up two rifles and were walking off with the property | when a policeman overhauled and ' gathered them in. It was also shown | that the boys were intoxicated at the | time and that they seemed to look | upon the burglary more in the light of | a practical joke than as a willful fel-| ony. These two facts were probahly . taken into consideration by the Judge: when he continued the cases until Mon- | day, by which time the military au- tho;;mos will have been communicated | with. i Two sturdy looking vagrants, booked | as William Ledworth and H. G. Tug- | mane, were given thirty days apiece | by Judge Mogan for begging on the streets. and they appeared to relish the sentence as they were taken prison-! ward. “These chilly nights,” scliloquized the court, reflectively, “are quite a disap- pointment to the brakebeam tourists { who have come from rigorous climes | {to- wizter in our usually. glorious wedather, ard to preserve San Fran- cisco’s reputation abroad as a marvel of all-the-year-round climatic salffbrity | | it is fittinz that we should make our | |'uninvited guests comfortable while | they: are in our midst.

So, George, do try, for all our sakes, to see that you are disarmed before you g0 abroad.” Y George promiscd. Judge Cabaniss dismissed the case of assault against Gustav Marx of 3034 Fulton street, who had smashed the cranium’ of Thomas Hines of 1807 Haight street with a heavy kerosene lamp,-while that gentleman was a bid- den guest of .the Marx household one ‘night last week. It ‘was shown that Marx and Hines | were old friends when they met on the | street and that, in the course of con- versation, Hines remarked that he had | $180 in his possession, and was rather ] afraid to go home alone because of the | possibility of being waylaid and | robbed. Marx then invited Hines to i spend the night at his house, and the {invitation was gratefully ~acepted. | Before 'retiring, Hines turned his| money. over to Marx, with a request | that it be concealed where burglars would be least likely to find it if they 1should ffivade the domicile, and Marx decided that the safest depository would be under the pillow of the Marx couch. So there it was placed, in full sight of and with the entire approval of Hines. 2 Some time during the night Mrs. | Marx was' awakened by a hand groping under her pillow, and she awoke her héisband and, in affrighted swhisper, asked if the obtrusive hand were his. He whispered a negative and at the same time grasped the { hard with one of his own, while with the other he snatched a lamp from a table at the bedside, and with it aimed at .the place where he calculated the 1head of the owner of the imprisoned (hand might be. His calculation was correct. The lamp crashed upon a skull, and when a light was obtained it shone upon Hines, weltering, as the yeilow-backed novels say, in his gore. When the customary restoratives had resuscitated Hines he proceeded to have his host arrested for assault, }.vand incidentally - accused him of making away with a portion of the money intrusted to his keeping.

A young man named Beretta, a millionaire of Milan and a famous sportsman, was invited by the Cheva- lier Angelo Vecchio, an organizér of sporting shows, to his villa outside of Milan on the pretext that he wished to have Beretta examine some old piet- ures. Once there Beretta was seized and bound and obliged, with a revolver pointed at his head, to make a will leaving his fortune to Vecchio, besides writing a letter saying he had commite ted suicide. Veechio then left the villa after instructing am accomplice to drown Beretta the next day in a bath and carry the body far away from the villa so as to give Veechio a chance to prove an alibi. But the heart of Vecchio’s accomplice softened and he set Beretta at liberty, and Vecchio, who read in the papers that his plot had been discovered, dis- appeared. The police thought he had gone to America. It was learned to- day that Vecchio had committed suicide by shooting while driving in an open carriage on thé famous Monte Pinco drive. e ——— —— Well Known Jurist Passes Away.
