With | three youthful companions, Alvin Lang ! of 1506 Ellis street, Sydney Carr of 23| Byington avenue and Chester Chan, a.‘ Chinese boy living in the same neigh- | borhood, Jackson had been engaged in | digging a well in the lot for several days. When a depth of four feet had been reached the youngsters conceived the idea of rigging up a derrick with which to raise a bucket. The boys were proceeding with their work yesterday in a methodical man- | mer, each taking his turn at the bot- | tom of the excavation and filling the | bucket with sand. They had finally | reached a depth of about nine feet at 3 | o'clock yesterday afternoon, when Jack- l { son, much against his will, went to the ! bottom to do his shift.

HOPES OF MANY FELONS ARE DASHED TO GROUND Supreme Court Declares That Two Sentences Cannot Be Construed as One Term. Court has brought hearts of the State's \g that two or more | sentences cannot be construed as one This ruling will take away rm credits from more than 100 tes of San Quentin and Folsom. Jameg B. Clifton, one of Warden Yell's charges, brought the matter to the attention of the court on a peti- tion for a writ of habeas corpus. was sentenced to serve five years each on two convictions of burglary. The law gives felons fifteen months in redits on a five-year term and forty- two months in credits on a ten-year term. If Clifton's two sentences were held to be one term he would serve a vear less than if he was serving two five-year terms. ‘ The decision was rendered by Jus- | tice Lorigan.

Boycott tactics resented by the pro- prietor of the Maison Tortoni are the cause of a suit for injunction begun yesterday by S. Constantini against Cooks’ Union, Local No. 44, and Wait- ers’ Union, Local No. 30, and their re- spective officers. The complainant alleges that on Oc- | tober 18 he was waited upon by walk- ing delegates of the unions, who in- formed him that if he did not dis- charge the non-union men in his em- ploy “he would be sorry for it.” He refused to be dictated to by the labor organization, and, says the complaint, they combined and conspired to coerce and injure him in his “business. He complains that pickets are patrolling in front of his place and cry out in a locud voice: “This is a scab restau- rant!” The complaint declares that the union men say falsely that Con- stantini is an enemy to labor and they solicit his customers to withdraw their patronage, threatening to boycott | those who refuse their demands. Dam- | ages, It is said, have already been suf- | fered in the sum of $500. Bush Fin- | nell of the Citizens' Alliance is attor- ney for the plaintiff. A temporary restraining order was iesued by Judge Hebbard and an or- der to show cause why the injunction should not be made permanent, re- tornable November 4. ST.
