The officials in the City Engineer’s office are struggling with a problem in the proposed reconstruction of the Fourth-street sewer, which is to be carried out under the bond issue. In- vestigations show that the sewer from | Harrison street to Channel is more than half clogged with mud and at two other points the sewer runs up hill for a distance of more than 200 feet, so that the sewage runs back from tidewater. The reconstruction of the sewer will be a difficult matter on that account. e Trapper’s Ofl cures rheumatism and neuralgia. | Druggists, 50c flask.

The Results of the AMERICAR RIVER CONTEST Will Be An \VAGRANT'S LOFTY BEFORE IRONY As he sat aloof from his fellow pris- | oners in Police Judge Mogan’s court- room; Edward Hawkins, accused of va- grancy, toyed with the frayed extremi- | ties of his luxuriant whiskers and con- { temptuously surveyed his environient. His clothing was of ancient fashion, | his shoes were up at tve and down at! heel, and the linen that encircled his neck and wrists was soiled. ‘When a | negro misdemeanant acctdently jostled him a flush of anger juumed his bloat- | ed countenance and his hands involun- | tarily clenched, but his indignation led | him to no further indiscretion than to | glare furiously at the colored person, | who was serenely unconscious of the ! wrath he had kindled. A moment later, however, Mr. Hawkins condescended to accept a brown paper cigarettg from the provoker of his ire. He hurriedly } concealed the contraband article as he | advanced to the bench for trial. | The prosecuting testimony was brief |and convincing. A policeman found | Mr. Hawkins fast asleep on the sward of Union Square at 2 o'clock yester- day morning and when awakened he either would not or could not give ‘sat- isfactory explanation of his conduct. On several previous occasions he had been seen loafing at unseasonable hours in the same square by the same po- liceman. { “You hear what the officer says?” | said his Honor, interrogatively, to the defendant. “Hevery blessed wora of hit,” re- plied Mr. Hawkins, still fondling his whiskers; “hand my honly comment his that 'e his bloomin® well heager to scrag me.” “Eager to do what?" | “Scrag me—send me to the bloomin’ jug By proper hinquiry ‘e could ’ave | discovered that I hain’t no bloomin’ { tramp. I lives at a first-clawss ‘otel | hon Sutter street, I does, han’ this yer | bobby would 'ave bin hinformed hot that fact hif ’e 'ad haddressed me civ- illy hinstead hof callin’ me a bum hand 'andlin’ me shamefully.” | “Am I to understand that you are a guest at a Sutter street hotel?” in- | quired the court with some show of in- terest. “Well, H'm pawtly guest hand pawt- ly hemploye,” was the answer. “Guest nothin’,” interjected the po- liceman. “When he can’t beg enough to eat, your Hongr, he washes dishes for his grub.” Mr. Hawkins laughed scornfully. “Beg?”’ he exclaimed. “My dear chap, | you don’t know Hedward 'Awkins. Hif you did you'd be ashamed to ‘heven suspect ’im hof beggin’. 'E his a gen- tleman, ’e his, hand e would die sooner than hask hanybody for hanythink, hor | haccept hanythink hoffered 'im hin the | way hof gharity. 'E’'s too proud for that.” “Well, Mr. Hawkins,” sald the court soothingly, “I hope you will not re- | gard as a charitable offering the three | months' imprisonment which I now or- der for you. It is not prescribed in a spirit of benevolence, I assure you.” | “Three months,” gasped Mr. Haw- kins in astonishment so great that he ceased fingering his whisker. | A Twenty milkmen convinced Judge | Cabaniss that they were not responsi- | ble for the illegal proportion of cream | in the lacteal fluid served by them to | consumers, and the charge against them was dismissed. When the Health | Board proceeds against the dairymen | who supplied the complained-of milk to the venders it will probably find, as | it found once before, that the cows | that yielded the milk are solely to blame for its thinness. b e Ten chubby children played hide- and-seek in the Hall of Justice corri- | dors while Judge Mogan heard testi- | mony as to whether they were as badly treated Dby their custodian, August Weinmann, as Mrs. Kate Pettle, man- ager of the Universal Service Soclety, had alleged in her complaint. Mrs. Baldwin, Mrs. Wyman, Miss Canty and | other persons residing in the vicinity of Twenty-first and Castro streets, where the defendant’s home is situated, testified that the little ones were very well taken care of by Mr. Weinmann and his wife and that they were not cruelly punished. Nine-year-old Abe Nathan stated that Mr. Weinmann hit | him with a strap one day as punish- ment for “playing hookey” from school, but the blow did not hurt him very much. Then the judge continued the case till next Saturday and intimated that he will dismiss it. 8. Miss Minnie Haskell declared that Patrolman KXavanagh made a most grievous mistake when he arrested her at 2 o’clock the other morning in the tenderloin and booked her for vagrancy. “For I am a professional dress- maker,” sald Miss Haskell to Judge Mogan, “and I'm sure this officer will apologize for what he has done when I tell him that there is no seamstress in San Francisco who works harder than I do.” Instead of apologizing to Miss Has- kell, however, the policeman informed the Judge that she was a ‘“raflbird,” meaning thereby that she had a habit of leaning against the gilded rails which protect the windows of certain saloons in the redlight district from breakage by staggering passers-by. He drove her from several of those perches ere he scooped her in. She will be sentenced on October 8. P T. H. Spriogle, John Iverson, John Henson and Bjorn Bjornson, compris- ing the crew of the good scow schooner Fredericka Frederickson, were making merry on the Barbary Coast when Mr. Bjornson ran afoul of Patrolman Joy. The officer had about made up his mind to arrest Mr. Bjornson, indeed had ‘“‘col- lared” him,” when Mr. Spriogle butted in and attempted to rescue. Then the original prisoner was released and Mr. Spriogle substituted, and he behaved so obstrepergusly that several hard knocks on the head with a club were required to subdue him. Judge Mogan consid- ered the defendant’s cranial injuries sufficient punishment for his offense and dismissed him with a caution. . . . Miss Clara Kerr (colored) was sched- uled for sentence yesterday by Judge Mogan, her offense being petty larceny, DIGNITY FADES OF POLICE JUDGE ‘hDeclares He Wduld Rather Die ,Than Live | to Take Charity and His Honor Mogan | Spares His Feelings in Sentencing Him but she applied for and was granted a stay for one week, by which time she expects to have enough money to pay a reasonable fine. She was disappoint- cd by the outcome of the Gans-Walcott fight, she explained, as she was confi- dent of the Barbadoes wonder’s ability to win and had backed him heavily to do 'so. The draw decision, however, magde her neither richer nor poorer, and therefore the money she was so sure of winning and with which she intended to pay her fine failed to materialize. Now she will draw upon a gentleman friend in Los Angeles for the requisite amount. . M. Pauker, journeyman palnter, charged William Green, master painter, with battery. After finishing a $2 job for the defendant, Mr. Pauker testified, he went to collect his wage and was treated with contumely. “You don't catch on to my meaning,” said Mr. Pauker to Mr. Green. “And you don't catch on to my $2,” sald Mr. Green to Mr. Pauler. Then, according to the statement of Mr. Pauker, he was assaulted by Mr. Green. Ju@ge Mogan gave a draw decision. . . Joseph Smith, a contractor, was charged with having driven D. Brizza- lari’s horse and wagon from wherke the animal was hitched at Montgomery and Market streets, and the defense was that Mr. Smith mistook the team. for his own, which he had left hitched at Sansome and Market streets. He told Judge Mogan that his team and Mr. Brizzalarl’s team were as much alike as peas In a pod, and this statement was corroborated by the policeman who arrested him. The case will be decided to-morrow. ‘. John de-Sozo, a waiter, accused of having stolen a watch from F. Brandon, about a year ago, was released on $1000 bail by Judge Mogan. The defendant’s wife, a refined little woman, recently inherited a considerable sum of money, and she it was who furnished the bail. The case will be heard next Wednes- day. —_——— OCTOBER SUNSET MAGAZINE CON- TAINS a three-page colored insert by Cucuel; Camp Atascadero articles by Governor Par- dee.

Few Pnpl; Know How Useful It Is in Pre- serving Health and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that char- coal is the safest and most efficient | disinfectant and purifier in nature, but | few realize its value when taken into | the human system for the same cleans- | ing purpose. i Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a| drug at all, but simply absorbs the | gases and impurities always present | in the stomach and intestines and car- | ries them out of the system. | Charcoal sweetens the breath after| smoking, drinking or after eating| onions and other odorous vegetables. | Charcoal effectually clears and im- | proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. ™ It absorbs the injurious gases which | collect in the ‘stomach and bowels; it | disinfects the mouth and throat from | the poison of catarrh. 1 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best | charcoal and the most for the money is | in Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges; they | are composed of the finest. powdered | Willow charcoal, and other harmless | antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting loz- enges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. . The daily use of these lozenges will =oon tell in & much improved condition of the general health, better complex- ion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but, on the contrary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoal says: “I ad- vise Stuart’s Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear the complex- fon and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is great- ly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets.” ! —— Searches for Her Son. Mrs. Emma Pallack of 139 Oak-| wood boulevard, Chicago, arrived here | on Thursday night and has asked the ! aid of the police in finding her son, Samuel Malis, 20 years of age, whom | she has not seen for three years. He) came here from Manila about six| weeks ago and put up at the Brooklyn Hotel. A week ago yesterday he was arrested on a charge of petty larceny, but was released on Monday, as it was proved that he was innocent. Since then he has not been seen. Mrs. Pal- lack is staying at 324 Bush street. ——e——— Catchy style with a little snap; our printing, Edward Knowles Company, 24 Second st. * — Afer two and a half years in the Antarctic regions on board the Discov- ery, a piano was found on its arrival at New Zealand to be practically as good as ever. —_———— Fall hats. 1904, just arrived, nobbler than ever.

The Supreme Court yesterday ren- dered a decision which will be of im- portance to county officials. It was in favor of the county of San Diego, which sued John Schwartz, Treasurer iol the county, for $601 96, the sum | which had been collected by him as a commission on collateral inheritance | taxes. | The defendant held that he was en- titled to a commission of 6 per cent on the first $50,000 collected, 8 per cent on the next $50,000 and 1 per cent on all over $100,000 collected by him and accounted for, under section 20 of the act of 1893. The provisions of section 216 of | the County Government Act of 1893 reads: “The salaries and fees pro- cers, attorney named either as offi- | cers, or ex-officio officers, their depu- ties and assistants, unless in this act otherwise provided.” It was held in effect first that the salaries prescribed by the State act were intended to compensate a State officer in full for all services rendered by him in his official capacity and that he cannot retain for his own use moneys collected by him while acting in State capacity. e - PERSONAL.
