He Shocks Dance Hall Usage ‘Objects When Taxed for Liquids to get | S BY JAMES C. When he started from his native, town, Columbus, O., to tour the west- ern seaboard young Byron Collier had been warned to ‘ware breakers and shoals along the Barbary Coast of San Francisco, which forewarning may | have been explanatory of his posses- | sion of a stout club when he sauntered | into a Pacific-street dance hall last faturday night. He was also equipped with reliable information anent the| e [ [ i 1 i ‘ . | L ey ] tricks and devices employed In such places to dissociate the unsophisti- cated traveler from his ready money and it was with the confidence of a seasoned habitue that he ignored alike the blandishments of the sirens and the rougher overtures of their mascu- line consorts, firmly declining either to trip a two-step or purchase liquids. But not until the man behind the bar began to regard him with baleful eye did Mr. Collier realize that the estab- lishment was not maintained for the purpose of providing inquisitive tour- gratuitous glimpses of the d and that his refusals to money actually put him in the 1t of an intruder. hocked by the realization he has- d to order for himself one glass of in payment for which he tendered a $5 gold piece, having mno coin of er denomination. The foaming ge was vlaced before him, the lden disk withdrawn from his gaze, and as he sipped and waited for his change he was rather surprised to see how suddenly the business of the bar Every one in the place have been abruptly seized with a thirst that would not be denied. and women flocked from all parts house and ranged themselves ng the counter until they were lined two deep, and the mixologist sum- | oned an assistant to aid him in serv- g them. Even the orchestra, com- osed of piano, cornet and snare drum, ceased torturing the atmosphere and au lznvn\sd the bibulous throng. What struck Mr. Collier as somewhat rkable was his meteoric rise in ) ty. Ere tipping their glasses he thirsty omes favored him with friendly nods and drank to his per- etual retention of good health. The as a rule, said: “Here's happy ddo,” while (he men by exclaiming: “How and “Lookin’ at ye, ki When the crowd had been served e n was leisurely washing ng glassware Mr. Collier ex- pressed desire to get the $4 95 for| which he had courteously waited until | the rush subsided, but, instead of ‘he‘ | | money, he was given an intimidatory glare accompanying the information that beer equivalent in value to the entire V had been consumed by those whom he had invited to drink with him. Mr. Collier endeavored to explain that he had not invited any one, but his explanation went for naught, and he was requested to walk out and thus avoid being thrown out. A hostile demonstration with his club brought upon him like a pack of wolves the very folk who a few moments pre- viously had pledged him in white- topped beakers, and he was compelled to smite several of them to the floor ere he could make his exit. With the pack in full cry at his heels he ran down the street and was probably saved from serious bodily injury by Patrolmen Skain and Holmes, one of whom held the mob at bay while the other arrested the pursued one for car- rying a deadly weapon, the same being | since his arrival in | about two years F. 5. XSLLY'S PEABMACY, 102 Eddr. gy “I have discovered,” said Mr. Collier lys to Police Judge Mogan, “that just as| soon as I placed the $5 on the counter the bartender surreptitiously touched | m.cguhoup.y_ 2 Days | an electric button that summoned an; the people in the place to step up and | drink.” He was given till next Saturday to make and report further startling dis- E Do 2 - S ——— ‘l COV?“?!.

Then, leer- ing coquettishly at Balliff Laws, lhe eajd: “An’ it’s sorry I am that you're not the Judge, for I've known you ever since you were a kid an’ threw rocks at me.” The Bailiff blushéd and the Judge prescribed, thirty days for Mrs. Galla- gher. = i 3 When the selection of a new carpet for Department No. 4 was submitted by the contractor to the attaches of that tribunal he suggested that the color scheme be a dark red shotted with black, but Clerk “Barney” Con- lan opined that plain emerald green would harmonize better with the en- vironment, to say nothing of its ex- ceptional benefit to the visual Carmichael, however, : tartan, which | quadrangles on a crimson.field, would be most pleasing to the eye as wel.l CRAWFORD. |28 more in accord with the majesty of the court.

To which Mr. Carmichael retorted that in this progressive nation and age the dispensation of unadulter- ated justice is not dependent upon recognition of any accompanying | color. “An’ sae far as thot gangs,” he added, “theer’s nae gude reason why i 8reen should be chosen ony mair thon red or blue. “D'ye railly uired. think so?” Mr. Conlan Nae gude reason at a',”” Mr. Car- ael repeated. re an’ it'’s a wondher,” said Mr. with filne firony, “that you ricommend a bunc o' thistles h your Macgrigor plaid.” , mon,” sighed Mr. Carmich- ken thot thistles wouldna able tae th' een as sham- don’t, don’t ye? Well, that's ye dinna ken,” Mr. Conlan med debate was waxing acrimonious when Judge Cab niss, uninfiu iced by racial predilecti and striking for peace, asked the carpet dealer if he could obtain a pattern showing this- tles strewn upon an emerald field, and the dealer surprised all present by declaring that he could and would. He did, and that's how the carpet in IP)‘dr(ln»'\t No. 4 came to be alluded to as “the Caba s compromise.” o s Judge Fritz dismissed the embezzlement charge against Miss Lena Walton, recen of Alaska, who was accused by Ma ter of having sold to him for $1000 an interest in a gold mine which she had previously disposed of. The testimony against the woman was insufficient to warrant her commitment. felony Judge Mogan continued till to- morrow the preliminary examination of Joseph Smith, w shot and killed Joseph McGowan about three weeks ago. The continuance was granted on motion of District Attorney Byington, who desired to lead the prosecution in person and was engaged in another murder trial in the Superior Attorney D. J. Murphy, for fense, interposed no objection. A “Katle Synfy!” shouted the baliliff, and instead of the female person ex- pected to respond there was placed be- fore Judge Conlan a stout and heavily bearded man of swart complexion. When asked his name he displayed two glistening rows of molars and said, “Katie Synfy. Then it was explained that he first saw light in Turkey and | | | 1 | | ol San Francisco, ago, had peddled fruit and vegetables for a livelihood. It was for driving his wagon at excessive speed Market street, near Second, that he was arrested by Patrolman Galloway after he had given that ener- | getic policeman a long chase and a flerce combat. When the policeman saw the ped- dler whipping his horse while the ani- mal was approaching a thronged cross- ing at a high rate of speed he raised an admonitory club and shouted “Halt'” But the command was ig- nored and the steed dashed onward. The officer caught and clung to the tailboard of the vehicle until he was enabled to scramble aboard, when he laid a restraining hand upon the driver and again ordered him to halt. In an instart the wagon was transformed into a theater of active conflict. The policeman pulled the driver backward, and both fell to the wagon-bed, where they wrestled amid fruit and vegeta- bles until they were thickly covered with vari-colored pulp, and the terrible Turk was finally subdued. It is doubt- ful, however, that Galloway could have conveyed his prisoner to the Central | station if Patrolman Roach had not aided him. “You gave the policeman quite a fight,” said Judge Conlan to defendant. “Eef it haf been een my countray I haf keeled heem,” was the reply. He will be sentenced to-day. ¢ Sadie Williams and Hattle Mason, neither of whom is over 17 years of age and each of whom has a decent { home and a widowed mother, were be- fore Judge Fritz on a charge of way- wardness.
