[FORESTERY BALL | by this order, was under the direction A BIG SUCCESS Twenty-Five Hundred Peo- ple Take Part in the Grand | March, Then Enjoy Dances EFm Gt The ball given last night in the Me- chanics’ Pavilion by the Foresters of | America as a close of the celebration of Foresters’ day was a great success. The attendance was in excess of 15,000 people, all the floor room being occu- pied besides the tiers of chairs on each side of the immense dancing space. When an effort to start the grand march was made at 9:30 o'clock it required the exertion of all the mem- bers of the floor and reception com- mittee, with the assistance of the police, to clear the dancing space. At a given signal the march was started, Professor W. J. O'Brien and Mrs. John J. Cordy, the wife of the grand secre- tary of the order, leading. In this march at least twenty-five hundred persons took part and more were will- ing to join, but there was no room for them. It was a serpentine march, which at the head of the hall was changed into a double column and the effect was one seldom witnessed in & baliroom. At the termination it was lecudly applauded by the many on- lookers and then the music by an or- chestra of thirty pleces changed from march time to waltz, and there was a whirling to the music of “Auf Wieder- sehn.” The dance programme was made up of twenty numbers. Before the grand march there was a promenade concert, when the fol- lowing numbers were rendered: Se- lections from “Roly Poly,” “A Whis- pered Thought” and “Prince of Pil- sen.” This affair, the greatest ever given of the following named: Officers of general committee—T.

The two are accused by John Parodi, a boy, of 2221 Mason street, of taking from him the sum of $6 50.

It was for thus conveying Celes- tial microbes from their habitat to the district south of Market street that B. Edelstein was arrested by Deputy Health Inspector J. Bucklin and tried before Police Judge Cabaniss, who dis- missed the case because there was no law to warrant conviction. Mr. Bucklin’s description of the ar- rest and its provoking causes was the feature of the hearing. “I wouldn’t ha’ pinched this fellow,” he told the Judge, “if he hadn’t got so fresh. You see, I knew there was no law to pre- vent the junkies from taking away the lead and stuff that was left in the ashes of the bonfires, but Iran a bluff on them, just the same, and this guy, Edelstein, was the only one of the bunch that called me. I caught him red-handed in the act and here he 1s.” “You mean to say that you caught him dirty-handed, I supposed?” ven- tured the Judge. “If you'd rather have it that way all right,” acquiesced Mr. Bucklin. ‘“Well, this blokey is the only one that gave me the guff. He took the stuff away and sold it at Fifth and Har- rison streets.” “I am very sorry,” said the court, “that there is no ordinance authoriz- ing me to punish this defendant for his discourteous treatment of you, as well as for his reckless imperiling of the public health south of Market street. That district has grievances enough to contend with and complain of without having the list augmented | by the importation of Asiatic bacteria. However, I hope that my inability to punish the defendant will not discour- age the complalning witness nor deter him from running his bluff whenever {or wherever he thinks it may promote the cause of sanitation.” e e e F. R. Collins, an architect’s draughts- | man, objected to the character of some people to whom his mother rented a | flat at 1010% Hyde street and to such | extreme did he carry expression of his displeasure that he was arrested and charged with disturbing the peace on complaint of his maternal relative. “If he don't like the folk in the house,” inquired Mrs. Collins, baptized “why don’t he move out of Judge Cabaniss passed the query up {to the defendant, who took it under | consideration for a moment and then !agreed to adopt the suggestion. So | with that understanding the case was dismissed. Silielle Patrolman J. E. Reed raided a “wine : Joint” on Sacramento street, between . Montgomery and Kearny, wherein for three consecutive days and nights high wassail had been in progress. As the result of his round-up eight men ac-! cused of drunkenness in a public place were arrayed before Judge Cabaniss. | They were in various stages of sartorial ! dilapidation and most of them were in | evident need of tonsorial attention. The spokesman for the group was Ned Skelly, once upon a time prominent in minor Republican politics, and he pleaded logically and with eloquence, carefully avoiding discrimination in his: defensive effort. He argued that the! seven gentlemen arraigned with him were no less entitled to the court's merciful consideration than he was, de- spite the fact that he had not been drunk for one year prior to the lapse that led to his arrést. He said that be- cause, without attempting to impugn the intelligence or fairness of Patrol- man Reed, he believed there was no valid reason for the rald. It was true that a number of convivially inclined gentlemen, the defendants among them, had assembled in the saloon and had sung songs and otherwise enjoyed | themselves, but he would like to enter positive denial of the complainant’s as- sertion that they disturbed the peace | of the neighborhood. That was all, and he thanked the court for its attention. “As you gentlemen have already spent a night In prison,” said the Judge, “I now allow you to go hence to free- dom. If any of you should come back here under similar accusation I will send you hence to prison. Good-day, Mr. Skelly.” “Take care of yourself,” was Mr. Skelly’s cheery rejoinder as he led the seven tatterdemalions corridorward. ST . About two years ago G. Mancini, | editor of an Italian journal, was con- victed of libeling a sensitive member of the Latin colony, and Judge Cabaniss fined him $200, with the alternative of fifty days’ imprisonment. The judg- ment was appealed to the Superior Court, where it hung fire until last Fri- day, when it was sustained. So the defendant reappeared before his Honor Judge Cabaniss yesterday, expressed inability to pay the fine and was sent to incarceration. & A. L. Brokan, an ex-soldler, had whipped every Barbary Coast bruiser worth the whipping and was yearning for a foeman worthy of his fists when he fell afoul of two policemen last Fri- day night at Pacific and Kearny| streets. His conduct was disorderly when they accosted him, and it became more so when they remonstrated. Then they undertook to arrest him, and with a laugh of mingled derision and sur- prise at their temerity—for surely they | knew of his prowess—he started to put them out of commission. When he was | able to sit up and ask questions he as- certained that the bluecoat at whom he aimed his first—and last—blow was known as Jack Stelzner, heavy-weight pugilist, ere he donned the blue, and that the other peace guardian was J. dresses, in handsome shades of Mode, etc.; 21 inches wide, yard cial values: inches wide; yard checked effects, which are so Tailor and Fancy Suits; 47 inc!

When the humiliated “bad man” stood before Judge Cabaniss yesterday morning he looked so absolutely de- Jected that his Honor continued the case for one month and allowed him to g0 on his own recognizance. “And If you fail to appear here at the end of the month,” said the Judge, “I will not be displeased if the explanation is sub- mitted that you have returned to the army, for really that is where a man of your truculent spirit ought to be. It's a shame to see such physical strength and courage as yours going to inglorious waste on the Barbary Coast.” Fred Miller, a clerk in the Rallway Mall Service, pleaded that he was la~ boring under mental aberration, super< induced by lack of sleep, when he grabbed Mrs. Mary Backint’s satchel from her hand as she stood In front of the Italian Bank on Montgomery street last Friday afterncon and accused her of peddling lottery tickets. He had been doing double duty on the San Francisco-Los Angeles run, he ex- plained, and he was so drowsy when he left the train that he took two eom three drinks to keep his eyes open and his senses clear until he could reach his home and go to bed. The liquor had the desired optical effect, but in- | stead of clarifying his brain it muddied that important organ until reason gave way to hallucination. When he seized Mrs. Backinl's purse he was sure it contained lottery tickets and that It was his duty as a good citizen to cap~ ture it, and, if protest were made, ta prosecute its owner. Police Corporal O'Meara, who ar< rested Miller, testified that the defend- ant was given an excellent character by his employers and that the story of his {llusion was evidently true, as he made no effort to escape with the satchel after he snatched it, but stood there informing Mrs. Backini that she ought to be ashamed of herself for sell- ing lottery tickets and breaking the In view of this testimony the case was dismissed. ——————————— Victim of Apoplexy.
