The or- dinance will be recommended for passage to-morrow at the meeting of the board. The Health Board filed with the committee a report on mei | condition of dairies kept by Messrs. Marty, Fassler, Regil and Cabou to the effect that Marty’s is still in an un- | sanitary condition and the others are being cleaned. The report was de- sired by the committee before award- | ing the contracts for the furnishing of milk to the City and County Hospital and the Almshouse, for which the dairymen named have filed bids. —_——— Laundry Destroyed by Fire, A two-story frame building on Mis- sion street, near Twenty-ninth, was | totally destroyed by fire yesterday forenoon. The structure was used as 2 laundry by a French company, em- ploying about seventy-five hands, the majority being girls, all of whom escaped from the place in safety. The bookkeeper, Miss Florence Francis, showed presence of mind in securing the books and cash before leaving her station. She faced the mirror and adjusted her hat while the smoke from the burning building was darkening the office. The cause of the fire is un- known. The damage amounts to about $12,000, which is partly covered by insurance. —_——— MRS. REDDY'S ESTATE.—A petition was flled yesterday in the Superior Court by Sybil Mayerle, the German expert optictan, consuited regarding the condition of the Market street. Don’t be misied, | e on | DIVIDED HOUSE OF BARRY" AIRS GRIEVANCES IN COURT After Being Twice Divorced the Parents of Five Children Again’Clash and Judge Mogan'’s Tri- bunal Is Regaled With Their Stories of Woe Mrs. Helen F. Barry, mother of five children, told Police Judge Mogan yes- terday that Michael J. Barry, a ma- chinist, from whom she was divorced last March, is too mean to be permit- ted to roam at large and she would like to have his liberty curtailed. She owns and manages a variety store at 1856 Fifteenth street and Mr. Barry al- leges that her miscellaneous stock in trade includes whisky. This she de- nies and dares him to prove. Fifteen years ago the Barrys were married and a twelvemonth later were divorced. After two years of single harness they were legally reunited and from that time until they again were separated by judicial decree their do- mestic life was a steady succession of jars. The court awarded the mother possession of the children, but two of the youngsters seceded and are dwell- ing with their father. After the complaint had painted the defendant’s character a lusterless black she was taken in hand by his attorney and forced to say some things that she evidently did not like to say. Not until the Judge explained to her the defend- ant’s right to have counsel and the right of that counsel to question her would she consent to cross-examina- tion and even then her answers were given with {1l grace. It was true, she acknowledged, that money given by Barry established the general mer- chandise business that enabled her to live and that he did protest against her selling whisky and allowing scenes of drunken revelry to threaten con- tamination of his fifteen-year-old daughter. While she denied the liquor selling and the revelry, she confessed that she had taken out a Federal l- cense for the sale of intoxicants. Barry stated that his object in visit- ing his former wife’s place of business was to see his three children and that he paid her $ for the window he had smashed after she locked the door against him. Yes, he had been drink- ing, but that was no reason why he should be refused permission to see his progeny. If their custodian were a total abstainer there might be logical excuse for her declination to admit him to their presence. He had it on ex- cellent authority, however, that the flowing bowl circulated frequently In the “variety store” and that his little ones could scarcely avoid cognizance of its effects upon those who sipped. The Judge opined that Mr. Barry’s plea was rather debilitated, inasmuch as it was based upon the theory that two wrongs make a right—that one fault justifies another. Even if the children in the mother's custody were permitted to witness drunkenness, that was all the more reason why their father should not appear before them In drunken condition. If he were sin- cerely solicitous that his fifteen-year- drunkards and drunkenness, why was he drunk when he went to visit her? His practice was Inconsistent with his precept. Then the case was continued till next Friday. . Miss Lucy B. Fisher, a visiting nurse for the Associated Charities, told Judge R tor's maternal neglect that his Honor expressed horror and ordered the woman into custody for further exam- Ination next Tuesday. Mrs. Proctor and her husband, Charles, a stableman, live at 260 Ship- ley street, and for years she has been a drunkard. She has three children— George, aged 7 years; Edith, aged 6 years, and Gladys, aged 2 years—and they were naked, hungry and filthy when Miss Fisher found them alone in the house, the mother being absent on a spree. Gladys, who Is affected with tuberculosis, was sent to a hospital, and the other little ones to an institu- tion for homeless children. “The 2-year-old baby,” Fisher, “has been starved and neglect- edso that it is no larger than a fair- sized doll, and its eyes are dilated in a way that indicates alcoholic polson- ing.” “This is one of the most distressing cases that has ever been brought to my attention,” said the Judge, “and I will continue it till, Tuesday in order to as- certain just how much of it the chil- dren's father is responsible for.” U ia e Ulysses K. Jerome, bocked for va- grancy and assigned to Judge Fritz for trial, sent word from the prison that he would like to be excused from ap# pearing in court, as he knew he looked like a “guy” and did not desire to be made laughing-stock for the bench- warmers. n “What's the matter with his looks?” inquired the Judge. Bailiff Conlan described Mr. Jerome's appearance. -When arrested early yes terday morning at Pine and Kearny streets the defendant was stupidly drunk and his head bore evidence of some practical joker having ran a bar- ber’s clipper crisscross through the thick hair until the cranium looked as it it had been platted. Three avenues, about two inches in width and three| inches apart, were shorn from the fore- head to the nape of the neck, and an equal number of bare streaks extended across the skull.

It will sizzle on the pan till Monday morning. The law has said it. On Thursday afternoon Mike's chop- | house was deserted and the proprietor | ! gave up hope. Chipping off a chunk of | the “round,” he softened it on the an-| vil and put it in the pan. Lighting the | gasburner under it, he sat down ‘o brood over his troubles. | “They say that I serve my steaks | raw,” muttered Kolasak. “Ha, ha! This one will be cooked to a turn.” | Mike seized his hat and took the 30 cents from the till. Then, after locking the place, he went south to parts un- known. Sheriff Curtis was ordered to take possession of the hashery for $75 which the proprietor owed his landlady. ‘While the legal forms were being at- tended to the steak continued to fry. It scented the neighborhood with an ap- petizing aroma. Hoboes crowded the thereon. And it is still frying. | A deputy sheriff arrived yesterday, but under the law he may not enter the | chophouse until Monday morning at 10 o’clock. Meanwhile the steak will sizzle on the pan. It ought to be cooked to a turn when removed. There is much discussion at the Sher iff’s office as to the disposal of this well-cooked tidbit. If the landlady does not want it the steak will be preserved as the longest short-order on record and the first chophouse product that was not underdone. —_— was so weird that the bailiff did not | blame the defendant for desiring to | keep his head away from public view. “Take him out and get the remainder of his hair removed,” said the Judge, | “and tell him to leave town until he @ again needs the tonsor.” [ After loving Frank Enos for two con- ! ‘56-(‘uxi\e years with all the warmth of { her Castilian soul, Pauline Gonzales i met Jason C. Russell, an ex-soldier, and | abruptly transferred her affection to | him. Frank -whined, then pined and finally became vengeful. Meeting the fickle senorita and her new flame as | they walked arm-in-arm along Stock- | ton street, near Pacific, last Friday evening, the jilted one struck his rival a violent blow on the face, and by way of retaliation was promptly knocked down. Springing to his feet, Frank drew a knife and was about to stab Jason when Pauline’s fingers became entangled in his hair and restrained | him until the policeman came. | “He's ze bad n,” chirruped Pau- | line, pointing to nk, who stood be- fore Judge Mogan, “and I fears me for | ! me life. I lufs heem not, and to jail| | you please heem send.” | “Tll think it over occasionally until| | July .14,” said his Honor, glancing at| | the defendant, who looked as if he did | not particularly care whether he was discharged or ordered to instant exe- | cution when he saw Pauline escorted | from the courtroom by the stalwart| Jason. s eie “T'll lay odds of three to one that you can’'t reform her,” said Judge Conlan to “Rebel George,” the evangelist, when | the latter pleaded for and obtained the | release of Josephine Mahoney, chronic vagrant. George said he was no longer a betting man else he might take the wager. That incident occurred less than - month ago, and yesterday Josephine | Mahoney was before his Honor Judge Conlan again on the same old charge. She made no attempt to defend her latest fall from grace. She simply| couldn’t stay sober—that’s all there was | ; to it, and what was the use of talking, | | anyway? ! “Six months in the County Jail,” sighed the Judge. . . . O. Evanson spent one of the recent cold nights in a Washington street | lcdging-house, and the bed coverings | being insufficient to convey to his emaciated body the degree of warth essential to comfortable slumber, he slyly pilfered a blanket from a neigh- boring bunk and spread it over him- | self. Thus protected he slept soundly | untfl morning, when he inadvertently took away with him the extra blanket and exchanged it for breakfast in a Kearny street restaurant. Judge Mogan will hear further details next Tuesday. & Down from Elko, Nev., came Bernard McCloskey, tall and stalwart, and when his money was all spent he begged for food from housewives In the Western Addition. Those who declined to feed | him he twitted with stinginess, and when they attempted to escape his tirade by shutting the door in his face he prevented them doing so by placing his foot inside the portal. Judge Con- lan gave him a scathing lecture and six months in the County Jalil to digest it. PR R A. M. Osio had George Lamont, a milk distributor, arrested for threaten- ing to shoot him with a pistol loaded with blank cartridges, and on the wit- ness stand Mr. Osio showed such small regard for the majesty of the court that he brought upon himself a sharp repri- mand from the bench. After the case had been dismissed Osio said in audible tones to Lamont, “I'll fix you yet,” and when the Judge called him back and asked him what he meant by the remark he stammered something unintelligible. “The first thing you know you'll be a defendant in this court,” said the Judge. Osio then promised to be good.! ———— It you want something superior in printing Order on Record When § Sheriff Takes Possession $ R e WANTS PERMIT TO BLAST.—George B.
