The young woman's at- torney proposed that his Henor attach an extra tail to the “n” and then re- peat the ceremony, but the young man’s attorney questioned the legality of such a proceeding, and the youns man himself said that he was already in enough trouble without having it ugie a4 by his arrest bigamy or something of that sort.

He is a sSpecial police ofticer and was arrested and | charged with betraying the girl under 1 promise of m iage. he continues to dwell with her month-old babe at the residence of her maternal relative, venth street. During the cere- he smoked a brown paper cigar- on ette, but considerately adopted the Judge's suggestion that he remove it while speaking the responses, as it in- terfered with his articulation. When asked if he took the woman to be his lawfully wedded wife he said he was under arrest and forced to do so, whereupon his mother-in-law-elect fix- upon his countenance a dark and pierc- ing eve and kept it riveted there until he was made a benedict. Then the bride and her mother bowed to their lawyer and retired, and a few mo- later the groom and his lawyer departed. The hearing of the betrayal charge is get for to-morrow, but yesterday’s pro- ceedings undoubtedly quashed the com- plaint. Suspecting that his wife, from whom he lived apart, was trifing with her altar vows, L. H. Guion armed himself with a revolver of wide bore last Sun- day evening and mounted the roof of the house on Adelaide place in which she ded. A skylight gave him a birds: view of her bedroom, and while peering into the dark interior he overbalanced and crashed through the glass to the floor beneath, his weapon exploding as he fell. There were femi- nine screams and a scuffling sound, fol- lowed by a hurried opening, shutting and locking of the chamber door. Guion, damaged hardly at all by | drop, scrambled to his feet and st a match—to find his wife sitting up in bed and very much frightened. A mo- re: | and booked him for ment later Patrolman Lycett, whose at- | tention had been attracted by the pistol shot, the breaking glass and the wom- an's screeches, put in an appearance and arrested Guion for discharging fire- arms within the city limit Among the trophies carried away by the prisoner was a complete set of masculine outer garments with the exception of a hat and one shoe. As the clothing was much too racious for the defendant Judge Fritz dismissed the case and suggested divorce as a substitute for roof-climbing and pistol-carrying—a suggestion which was received with evi- dent favor. When the case of W. Campbell, was called for hearing be- fore Judge Mogan neither the girl nor her mother appeared, and Detective Bailey reported that they had suddenly deserted their apartments at 119 Jones | street and left no trace of their destina- tion. The girl had been employed as a clerk in a Market street dry goods store, but had not reported there since last Friday. So a continuance till to- morrow was ordered. .0 William J. Cameron, who fought and bled in the South African war, neglect- ed to stop and ascertain how severely Mrs. Annie Connell was injured after she had been knocked down. by the team he was driving at Guerrero and Fifteenth streets, and Police Sergeant Shay, who witnessed the occurrence from a street car, pursued Cameron three blocks ere he captured him. For- tunately for Cameron, the woman, who dwells at 902 Oak street, was not badly hurt and seemed disinclined to prose- cute him. Judge Cabaniss, however, in dismissing the case expressed wonder that a man who had fearlessly faced bullets should retreat before the brass | buttons of a policeman. o is & Francis P. Tully informed Judge.Con- ! lan that while Alameda is a delightful place of residence it is not much of a town to get drunk in, and that was why he always came acrose the bay to acquire inebriety. The Judge said he will sentence Tully as soon as he has decided whether San Francisco should feel complimented or slurred by his plea. Louis R. Scott, who keeps a lodging- house at 524% Turk street, was pro- nounced personified meanness by Miss | Garrity, probation officer, and other witnesses who testified against him in | Judge Mogan's court, where he was | charged with failing to provide for his family. Miss Garrity stated that the man's wife is in the City and County Hospital, while his two chldren are 'cared for in other eleemosynary insfitu- | tions, and that when she asked him to | contribute something to their -nppog ' he said he could not afford to devo !any more than $1 to that purpose. | When the case was continued till to- morrow, however, he promptly fur- | | A.

' Scolt recently came here from the East, and apparently is well able to keep his family beyond necedsity of seeking charity from strangers. | o\ S i It was at a political meeting in an ' Afro-American church that Herbert Erskine and Charles Carter first clashed. i “Ah wuz tickled by some ob de funny sayin's ob Judge Kerrigan and de Hon'ble Julius Xahn,” Mr. Erskine ex- plained to Judge Cabaniss, “an’ wuz laughin’ in an o'dehly mannah w'en Mistah Cahtah kem up an' sed Ah wuz too b'isterous.

Den 1 busted his jaw, Jedge—Ah won’t deny Ah busted his jaw.” Case dismissed and Mr. Carter ju- dicially chided for taking the law into his n hands. Miss Grace Dillon, a very pretty girt wearing a dainty cowboy hat, insisted that she never gave Robert Fisher, red- haired and spectacled, encouragement sufficient to warrant the attentions which he persistently thrust upon her. It was his wont, she averred, to visii 291 Page street, where she resided with her mother, and to ignore the snubs re- | peatedly administered to him by the| landlady as per instruction from the | complainant. She did not desire that he be sent to jail if he could be ¢ induced by less drastic means to cease pestering her life out. Once upon a time she had been on speaking terms' with him, but at no tijne indicated that his tender attachment would be recip- rocated. Mr. Fisher, in response to Judge Mo- gan's query as to why he did it, de- clared that his only object in visiting 291 Page street was to obtain one tooth brush, his personal property, which he had left there when Miss Dillon regard- ed him more kindly. He was a clerk, but sickness incapacitated him for la- bor, and he was certain that it was not love-sickns “Humph.” said Miss Dillon, “if a tooth brush will keep him away I'll see that he gets one.” On that basis the case was dismissed. | . | | George Wilson, against whom three charges of stealing diamonds are en- tered, must answer to two of them in the Superior Court, with bail fixed at $4000. The other accusation will be heard next Monday by Judge Conlan. . . Nicolas Aspica, who stabbed Bessie Stone on October 12 and then jumped the bail of $1000 on which he was held to answer before Judge Mogan, was pursued all over the coast coun- | ties by his bondsman, G. Smaro, of 424 Broadway, who finally captured him last Sunday in this city and returned him to custody. Mr. Smaro retired | from the bond yesterday and Mr. Aspica Is held for hearing to-day.
