K. Scofield, Neil McMahon, Wil- |liam Connor, Thomas Matty and | Thomas Pease, | { Police Officers Bolton, Moltke and | Davey, who collaborated in the com- | plaint, alleged that the Diamonds had | | no regular place for meeting, but most- | ly congregated at Twenty-fourth and Castro streets, where they executed the ostensible objects of their fraternity by casting stones at passing street cars, attaching empty tin cans to the cauda! appendages of the neighborhood dogs and pelting inoffens pedestrians with garbage and uncomplimenta: language. That they were associated | for such purposes the Diamonds em- | | phatically and indignantly denied, d { claring that they were banded solely | for social intercourse, intellectual ad- vancement and other innocuous pur- suits Then why were vou arrested and brought here?” Judge Cabaniss asked | the spokesmian of the bunch of Dia- | monds that glittered before him. “Because,” was the ingenuous an- swer, “some cops hates ter see kids | enjoy theirselves.

Judge Fritz made similar dis- posal of the Diamonds assigned to him. e W. H. McFall, a railroad construc- tion hand. displayed a bandaged head in substantiation of his complaint that he had been smitten with ed by W. A. Brown, a bartender in the saloon at 911 Kearny treet. Brown did not deny the allegation, but plead ed that the assault was justified by club wield- bears his surname. Society and the- atrical circles of the coast are much agitated by the scandal. P Carl Blendoro admits he was intox- icated when he informed the police that he had beén waylaid and robbed | of $1 65 cash, a key and a pocketknife | by John Coffey the night of March 7| on the San Bruno road, but the police arrested Coffey just the same and ex- pect to make out a case against him in Judge Mogan’s court. P Etta Parker ‘squealed” when she| was arraigned with Eva Grant and ! W. A. Allen before Judge Mogan, and ' her reward was dismissal of the charge } of robbing a barber in a Taylor-street | lodging-house kept by W. ‘A, Allen. | Miss Parker's testimony convicted Allen of selling liquor without a license | and the larceny charge against Miss Grant will be heard to-day. - | J. W. Colgren, a soldier, was dis- charged from custody by Judge Mogan because Police Officer Joy could not | overtake Jason Jackson, cclored, a wit- | ness for the prosecution, who has been | ought since last Sunday. The sol-| dier was suspected of having been one of a party of infantrymen that griev ously assaulted Jackson in a Barbary Coast saloon. . In the Mexican quarter it is sus- pected that thirty-year-old Labrada Morales has eloped with seventeen- vear-old Manuel Flores, and that the couple will never return to face the | charge of vagrancy which the boy's mother was pressing with all her mi; against the woman. When the case was called yesterday in Mogan's court there was no response from the de- fendant, who had been liberated on bail, |nor was the lad present. His mother | was ther however, determined to prosecute to the bitter end, and at her suggestion a bench warrant was issued | for Labrada. ' Louis Horner was caught in the act | of thrashing two able-bodied men at | Kearny and Jackson strects night be- | fore last, yet when Louis appeared be- | fcre Judge Mogan yesterday he stated that he recently came here from Cin- cinnati for his health, which 1s so poor as to incapacitate him for manual labur of any description. | “What a fighter you must be when | your health is good,” remarked the Judge, and then he ordered Louis’ con- finement for the ensuing twenty-fo hours. J. W.' Joy, who peddies coat hangers for a livelthood and imbibes strong | waters for recreation, was given thirty days for drunkenness and disorderly | cenduct by Judge Cabaniss, who ob- the provoecati which consisted of the | complainant’'s refusal to pay for a| arink whicli he had ordered and con- sumed. Besides, argued the mixologist he was exasperated by the conduct of a man who was with McFall. These | pleadings we ken under considera- tion by Judge Conlan and judgment will probably be handed down to-day. soliciting alms from pedestrians | t Charles Norton and apping big vagrants. nning, were sent up for three months apiece by Judge Conlan, and for a simil John Collins was given just | that dose by Judge Mogan.

M. Lauricke, a tamale | and enchilada peddler, had stolen two and an erccat from among | the personal effects left by her father | when he was killed by a railroad train January 29 last. January 30, the com- plainant averred Lauricke went to the family residence and purloined the property described, but failed to boilers « produce any witnesses who had actual- ly seen the goods in the defendant’s possession, although she summoned quite a number of persons to on that point. “I'nless you can prove that this man testify stole the boilers and the overcoat T don’t see how I can hold him,” said the Judge. “What more proof do you want than the fact that the property was stolen and that the defendant’s partner was seen using the boilers at Ingleside?” demanded the witness. “The fact that the goods were stolen does not prove that this defendant stole them,” replied the Judge, “and you must remember that his partner is not now on-trial. “Well, if this defendant didn't steal the boilers I'd like to know how his partner got hold of them?” “I must plead inability to enlighten you,” murmured the court. ““And the overcoat—if Lauricke didn’t | steal that overcoat, who did “You may search me,” answered the | | bench. “Well, of all things,” exclaimed Mrs. Flores. “Here I am, just as sure as I can be that Lauricke stole those boil- ers and that overcoat, and here he is likely to be discharged. Did any one | ever?” | “Can't answer; pass me,” was the ‘ Judge's wearily delivered response. | “Well, you won't let him go until I see if I can't get some more witnesses?” | inquired the lady. | “I'll hold him till to-morrow,” :q.lledl | the court; “and for your own behefit #1 would advise you to be satisfied that | your prospective witnesses know some- | thing about the case befcre you bring | them here.” s e = | There promises to be interesting go- | ings-on next Tuesday in Judge Mo- gan’s court, for Lola Hallett and Lillie | King have been notified to appear then and there and explain what they meant | by violently assaulting Marie Albert | gne night about a week ago in a Bar- | bary Coast vaudeville cellar. The com- plainant alleges that she was beaten because the manager of the establish- ment, cne “Jim” Hallett, had devoted | street to Casselli avenue with bitum- | more attention to her than was .con- aldered proper by the defendant who | nified by his surname. served that the prisoner’s countenanc» was not expressive of the feeling sig- | The defendant ' pleaded that he is afflicted with deaf ness, but the Judge failed to see how aural weakness could logically be held responsible for inebriety. | d with Norah Slattery, who is burd a penchant for stealing bedcoverings from lodging-houses, was given five months’ im; nment for purloining a quilt from the rest for transients con- ducted by Mrs. Davis of Fourth street Judge Cabaniss prescribed the sentence and gratuitously presented Norah with a large chunk of counsel as to her fu- are. Since the outbreak of hostilities be- tween J: n and Russia the warlike spirit of some of the little brown men residing in San Francisco finding vent in illegal ways, and hardly a day passes without one or more of them being punished for ault or dis- | orderly conduct. In Judge Mogan's court vesterday two of them were fined | $100 apiece for furiously fighting on the | public Street, and another was given | ninety davs in prison for brandishing | in threatening manner a knife that was| long and sharp enough to serve as a ' sword. while Judge Conlan spent con- | iderable time in futile endeavor to con- vince M. Kimo, who keeps an employ- ment agency at 12215 Turk street, that it was his duty to prosecute John Fukushimi and H. Zarai, whom he had | arrested for assaulting him. Kimo had sworn to a complaint charging his compatriots with having violently as- | sailed him, but when the case was called in court he declared he knew nothing at all about it. He was held for perjury. | It was at a meeting held at 5091 Bush street for the purpose of estab-| lishing a fund to aid the Japanese Gov- | ernment in its argument with Russia | that Kimo ,was assaulted. The pro- | has been i ceedings opened with patriotism and ' good-fellowship at fever heat, but as orator after orator depicted in graphic language the struggle of the Mikado's forces to drive the Slav out of Man-| churia the temper of the audience waxed | truculent, until chaos supplanted de- corum and blows were freely and in- Qiscriminately interchanged. When ! Kimo succeeded in extricating himself | from the howling, scratching and strik- | ing mass of humanity he sought police aid and had Fukushimi and Zarai ar- rested as his assailants. Mdry Bowen dwells on Folsom stregt, but the police records show that each of her numerous arrests for vagrancy was effected on the Barbary Coast. In | explanation of this fact Mary informed Judge Mogan that she has a sister who resides at the North End and that they visit each other frequently. Mary is passionately fond of music, and on sev- eral occasions while she was en route to | her sistep’s home the strains of melody wafting from the dance hall doorson the | Barbary Coast enthralled her to such an | extent that the police imagined she was | intoxicated. s “Mary, you had better stay south of the slot,” said the Judge, and then he gave her twenty-four hours’ imprison- ment to enable her to get rid of the ef-| fects of her latest enthrallment. . | @i iy Daniel Valenzuela, 22 years of age, said he was a private detective when Judge Mogan inquired as to his voca- tion, and the case was continued two | night All Day---I Am Cured’’---by the Celebrated Nerve Vitalizer and Tonic Paine’s Celery Compound “l Have a Good Night's Rest---1 Wake Up Refreshed---I Am Cheerful All Day Long---I Do My Work Faster and Better.’ The gentle but unfailing regulating power of Paine’s Celery Compound does | away with “that disheartened feeling” | which sets its mark upon the faces and | the lives of so many unhappy women. | Thousands of women whose bright eves, clear complexions, buoyant spirits | and unfailing health are the envy of| others owe their pure, strong blood and | fine vitality solely to the little morning doses of Paine’s Celery Compound, the celebrated Nerve Vitalizer and Tonic, which gives the whole system strength to do its work in a healthful way.
