C————— lief Society will be held at Fairfax 2V Ay gode Christian when ay ban < list Start Out to but Among the admiring compatriots of “Battling” Nelson who did not witness the defeat of Eddie Hanlon, on Friday night were Willlam Altemin and Fred Ahokas, both enrolled “a. b.” on the books of the coasting schooner Fearless Flossie. That they missed seeing the fistic glory of Denmark upheld was entirely the fault of the two seamen, for they had the pecuniary means, the time ang, it is needless to say, the in- clination to visit Woodward's Pavilion, when they were arrested for fighting and forced to spend the memorable night in prison. | After obtaining leave of absence from their ship Mr. Altemin and Mr. Ahokas —mispronounced “Artichokes” by the clerk of Judge Fritz's court—started for the ringside and while awaiting a street car they unfortunately’ dropped | into a Steuart-street saloon, where the relative prowess of ‘“‘Battling” and | “Eddie” were under discussion by a group of ’longshore characters whom impecuniosity alone prevented seeing the mighty little boxers in action. Into the argument indiscreetly plunged the | flower of the Fearless Flossie's crew. | Mr. Altemin’s opinion that Nelson | would win in a canter was enthusias- | tically indorsed by Mr. Ahokas, while | the Hanlon partisans as firmly ex- ! pressed belief that their favorite could | not be beaten by any one of his weight | in this or any other country. The was consumed—the two seamen paying i for all of it=and just how the fight be- | gan nobody concerned seemed clearly | to recollect. ., When the policeman ar- ‘rl\'ed on the scene he found only Mr. | Altemin and Mr. Ahokas. They were | locked in close embrace and kicking | and biting most viciously and when | they were pulled asunder each was surprised to find that the other was not somebody else. Judge Fritz find them $5 aplece and | informed them that the sentence would be heavier if they had not missed one | of the best prizefights he had ever | witnessed. | Judge Cabaniss gave Albert Paodi | until September 1 to remove his ward- | robe and other personal belongings from his wife’s apartments on lower | Green street, ‘the lady having stated that she very much preferred his ab- | sence to his society. “He's my second husband,” she said, “and he'll never have a successor. Of all the good-for-nothing creatures I ever beard of he Is the worst. He re- fuses to work, and when I refuse to work he beats me. All that I ask your Honor 'to do is to make him take nis clothes and go.” “It gives me pleasure to accede to your request, madame,” said the Judge, “and I hope, for your own sake, you will live up to your resolve to keep his former Place at table forever va- cant."” i’ 7e e Mrs. Ellen O'Donnell of 115 Jackson | street told Judge Conlan that for gen- eral worthlessness she would back -her husband, James, against anything that ever assumed to be a man. Laziness and love of drink were his principal de- merits and when drunk he would beat her if she were fool enough to permit | him. She hoped the court would deal | with him unsparingly, as she could get along better without him than by hav- ing him constantly pestering her. If the lady’s mind does not undergo a radical change before next Friday her appeal may find satisfactory response. . . John Nelson, descendant of the Vi- kings, dropped into a gospel meeting at Pine and Kearny streets last Friday | evening and made his presence so of- fensive that a self-appointed commit- tee of two muscular worshipers ejected him from the hall. Then he stood upon | the sidewalk and exhorted until Patrol. | man J. B. O'Connor undertook to si- | lence him, when a scrimmage and the In Judge Cabaniss’ court the plea of | inebriety was advanced by Mr. Nelson. | “Ay ban dronk,” he said, “an’ ay sor- sober.” Then he went on to explain that it was not the doctrine expounded in the meeting that had provoked him | to disorder, but the promptings of evil | that dwell within the flowing bowl. His { confession of faith was rewarded with | twenty-four hours’ imprisonment. R | Mrs. Sarah Curtis, accused of sending obscene letters to Mrs. Emma Fitzger- ald of 110 Minna street, disclaimed au- | thorship of the unprintable missives and requested Judge Conlan to have | chirographic experts appointed to com- | pare her handwriting with that alleged {to be hers by Mrs. Fitzgerald. His Honor took the request under consid- eration till to-morrow. PR e Convicted of stealing a dress suit case from a room of the hotel in which he | was employed as a bell boy, George | Simmons pleaded so hard for mercy that Judge Fritz postponed sentence for | three months and allowed him to go on | his own recognizance, at the same time suggesting it would be well for him to shun temptation by going to sea. That happened three months ago, and yes- terday Master Simmons stood before the Judge and reported that since his | previous appearance in court he had | been leading an honest life. “What are you doing for a living?” his Honor inquired. “I am employed 4n a hotel,” was the reply. “Well, I don’t think you are a safe person to be employed in a hotel,” said the Judge. of larcenous inclifation and unfit to be trusted where there is temptation to steal without fear of arrest.

Tonaka, a Japanese, was %o clear- ly demented that Judge Conlan sent him to the lunacy commission for ex- amination. He was arrested for va- grancy in Chinatown and when ap- proached by an attorney Yor informa- tion ds to whether he had money to pay for an able defense he replied in pretty good: English: “Sure. You get me out and I'll give You any part of $3,000,000. You may think I'm a Jap, but I'm a native son | of San Francisco and my father owns San Quentin.” . ‘W. M. Mills and W. Dow were jointly charged with having broken a show window on Grant avenue and neither of them could enlighten Judge Cab- aniss as to how the damage was ef- fected. Mills said that he did not de- sire to relleve himself of any blame that justly attached to him, but at the same time he considered it his duty to himself to inform the court that #f he fell against the window, as alleged by the policeman, he must have been either dragged or pushed, because he was exceptionally free from iconoclas- tic Instinct and would never of his own volition, however drunk he might be, attempt to damage property. Dow pleaded similarly in his own behalf and then the Judge dismissed the case and ordered the defendants to defray the cost of repairing the shattered -window. Miris . » For beating his.wife Frank Bandry was given ninety days’ imprisonment by Judge Conlan. - A jury in Judge Fritz's court ac- quitted C. L. Murphy, a striking stable- man, of the charge of having hurled a rock at a hack driver who was con- veying a party from the recent French ball at Mechanics’ Pavilion. The pros- ecuting testimony conflicted, Patrol- man Goff swearing that Murphy threw the rock and Corporal Birdsall testify- ing that it was cast by one of the de- fendant’s companions. . ‘When the case of James F. Young, THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JULY 81, 190 BUSINESS MEN' HIS VICTIM H. Heller Is Brought From Los Angeles on Charge of Passing Fictitious Checks —_— H. Heller was brought from Los An- geles on Friday night by Detective ‘Wren and booked at the City Prison on a charge of passing a fictitious check. The check was for $2750 and was passed on Mlersch & Claus of the Em- porium bakery, at ‘Ellis and Leaven- worth streets. Heller was Introduced | to the firm by A. Silverstein, who had | $900 taken from his pocketbook at a| hotel on Ellis street about two weeks | ago on the eve of his departure for Eu- | rope. It is also alleged that Heller | passed a fictitious check on R. D. Davis & Co., at 46 Geary street. Heller had another scheme which | may bring him into more serious trou- | ble. It is alleged that he has been sell- | ing barrels of whisky in bond in Louis- | ville, Ky., to retail dealers in this city and other places on certificates which were fraudulent. He was arrested in Los Angeles for a job of this kind, but owing to the refusal of the person in New York Whose name was alleged to have been forged on the certificate to go there and testify no action was | taken against Heller. | One of his victims here is Eugene | McCoy of McCoy & Nesbitt. He wrote Chief Wittman from Adams Springs | that he had purchased fifteen barrels | of whisky from Heller which were said ‘ to be in bond in Louisville, and when | he wrote to the proprietors of the bond | he received a reply that they knew | nothing of Heller or the firm in New | York he claimed to represent. Heller | had recelved money on the sale. ‘ Another letter was received by the | Chief from a representative of Braun- [ schweiger & Co. that A. T. Dormia and | Marra °& Mozett! of Reno, Nev., had both been victimized by Heller in the same way. Each had purchased five barrels of whisky {n bond and had ad- vanced $25 to Heller, but found there | was no whisky for them.
