When the bald facts of the case were unfolded to Judge Cabaniss he ordered that Abraham be charged with threats against life as well as disturbing the peace an dthat he be detained in custody until the court has more time to devote to the hear- ing of details. L T Three times since last Sunday was Mary Moran arrested, charged with drunkenness and dismissed by Judge Fritz ere he gave her thirty days for the same old offense. “If you are striving to win the championship for this year, Marty,” said his Honor, u must allow longer lapses between your arrests. Twice a week would suffice to cap- ture the title, I think.” . i Albert Dougherty and Louis Bahr, typical vagabonds, sought shelter from a midday shower and found it underneath some trees on a hillside McAllister “street. As they stood watching the raindrops patter there came along the sidewalk below a handsome and well dressed woman, who glanced up at them as she passed and then stopped, took a handker- | \ r chief from her reticule and flourished # ““She’s flaggin’ me,” sald Mr. Dough- erty to his companion. 2 come- “It's me she’s handin’ - de follow to,” modestly .averred - Mr. Bahr. Then gathering up their tatters, the two sons of rest nimbly slid down the declivity and ran after the lady, who took to her heels when she heard their footsteps and glanced around. don’t yer drop. out o’ this panted Mr. Dougherty to Mr. “Don’t yer see she wants ter shake ye?” “It's youse she wants ter give de fare-ye-well to,” gasped Mr. Bahr. Another glance over her shoulder convinced the fair quarry that her pursuers were rapidly closing the gap, and to their dismay she spurted and loudly yelled as she ran: “Po-leece! Help! Robbers! Help! Thieves! Help! Kidnapers! Help! Burglars! Help! Her cries were heard by Patrolman Gaston, who dashed to the rescue and captured the creators of her alarm. ‘““What are you chasing the lady for?" inquired the officer. “Wot did she wave de rag at for?” was Mr. Dougherty's query. “W'y did she x‘fve me de mash sign?” asked Mr. Bahr. When the female recovered her breath she explained that she was re- turning from . her milliner's and wear- ing a dream of an Easter hat to sub- mit for her husband's inspection when the rain suddenly descended, and. it was to protect her precious headgear that she took the handkerchief from her handbag and shook it aloft to loosen its folds. The impudence of Messrs. Dougherty and Bahr in sup- posing that she signaled to either or both of them to follow her was more than she could understand Juége Conlan also expressed amaze- ment at the self-conceit shown by the two unprepossessing figures before him. He pronounced them guilty of vag- rancy and deplored the reluctance of she whom they had pursued to appear in court and his resultant deprivation of opportunity to punish them for peace disturbance also. s Tia me counter . Mrs. Bessie Nelson of 439 Jessie street denied that she owed Otto Wil- son and his wife, Minnie, $6 50 for board and lodging at their house, 70 Sycamore avenue, but expressed willingness to pay hall the sum to obtain her trunks which were held by the Wilsons. But the Wilsons averred that she owed the full amount claimed by them, inas- much as she and her husband had re- sided and fed in their home for seven days and nights. ‘That man_ wasn't my husband, retorted Mrs. Nelson, “for I got an in- terlocutory decree from him. a year ago and since we left your house the Report of Alleged Theft of Jewelry Worth Nearly $1700 - Is Denied Later QUEER LOOK TO MATTER R August Portal and Fiancee, Mrs. L. Badere, Repudiate |3 Tale Accredited to Them g tieihger lies August Portal, who tends bar at Sixth and Folsom streets, and :Mrs. Laura Badere, who conducts a small dyeing and repairing shop on Mont- gomery avenue, have for some ' time been engaged to wed, and, it is‘said, intended to have the ceremony per- formed during the latter part of April ! and depart at once for France, their | | native country. Mrs. Badere occupies a room in the building at 223 Montgom- ery avenue, next to her place of busi- ness, Wednesday evening Portal stopped Policeman Thomas O'Connell, beat is cn the avenue, and told him he had just been in Mrs. Badere's room, and that a burglar had been there and ransacked all the drawers. Mrs. Badere was notified, and she hurried to the room and found everything in great | | disorder. She sald the following ar- | ticles of value were missing: . One pair | of diamond earrings, worth $600; breast- | | pin containing eleven diamonds, $500; { two diamond rings, $500; wedding ring, $7; lady's gold watch, $25; six silver teaspoons, $15; two revolvers, $10; coin, $17 50. Entrance had been effected through the door of the room. This report Is according to a state- | by Policeman O'Connell. Portal and Mrs. Badere promised to appear before Captain of Detectives Burnett yesterday morning and give further details of the alleged burglary. They did not appear. Inquiries of Mrs. Badere elicited the startling statement that nothing had. been stolen from her Ermnn and that she had not reported any robbery. From Portal came sim- ilar statements. He declared he had never reported that there had been a burglary. The woman seemed in an excited frame of mind: the man wore a sheepish look. The landlady at 323 Montgomery ave- nne said she had not heard .of any burglary having taken place in the house. The denials of the pair, taken in con- junction with the report of the po- liceman, make a peculiar state of af- fairs. Portal has been keeping com- pany with Mrs. Bacere for about four months. Her husband diéd last year, and, it is said, left her a little money. She was not known to have such val- uable jewelry. The couple were together in the dye- ing shop yesterday and seemed on friendly terms, though the lady was { very sharp in telling him not to talk when he essayed to answer questions concerning the alleged burglary. ——————————— Eppinger Demwrrers Disallowed.

Dingee, executor of the will of the late Alvinza Hayward, al- leges that he was taken advantage of by John D. McGlivray relative to the sale of property at Bay and Dupont streets belonging to the estate of the deceased millionaire. Dingee filed suit yesterday against McGilvray and James McNab, who plaintiff says he belleves has an interest in the trans- action, to set aside a deed to the prop- erty in question. ingee says that in accordance with rder of court he offered the prop- erty in question for sale and McGilvray bid $121,000 for the same Subsequent- ly, but before the sale was confirmed by the court, Dingee says that William A. McGee came to him and told him that he could get a better price for the land and would guarantee him $125,000 net. Dingee then went to McGilvray, he says, and laid the proposition before him and said that in view of the in- creased price offered he would ask the court not to confirm the sale of the property on the bid of $121,000. McGilvray, Dingee alleges, requested him to let the matter stand and he would pay him the $4000 additional. This Dingee says he did, the sale of the property was confirmed to McGil- vray and he was given a deed. But, says Dingee in conclusion, after the confirmation McGilvray refused to pay any greater sum than $121,000 and it was through inadvertence that the deed was glven to him before he had first lived up to his agreement. Hence he asks that the deed be canceled and that he be authorized to return to Mc- Gilvray the $121,000 received from him in payment for the property. ——— Bridge Carpenters Wanted.

NARROWLY ESCAPES DEATH FROM A RATTLESNAKE'S BITE Resident of Calaveras Valley Is Badly SAN JOSE, March 30.—Edward J. Kerrick of Calaveras Valley is suffer- ing from a rattlesnake bite received last Saturday. He met the reptile on a trail and while attempting to kill it was bitten on ome finger. He rode to Milpitas for help and on the way there his arm swelled to an enormous size. He is now slowly recovering. He alleges that his father, who is pro- prietor of several large phonograph parlors in this and other cities, is worth $50,000 and has an |m:ome of $1000 a month. Bacigalupi denies that he Is in receipt of an income greater than $500 a month and says this is all necessary for the support of himself, his wife, twp minor children and two adult daughters. He further avers that he is under no ob- ligation to support his som, for he was divorced from the boy’s mother. his first wife, on June 12, 1880, and that she was given the custody of the boy at that time with the understanding that she would maintain him. ——————————— Peter Bacigalup! is still fighting in the courts in an effort to avoid contrib- uting toward the support of his blind son, Lucien P. Bacigalupl. Yesterday morning his counsel appeared before Judge Hebbard and made the plea that the blind son was barred from suing his parent for support, as he is now of age and consequently depend- ent upon himself alone for support. The son’s only remedy, it was argued, was to become a charge upon the county and then see fhat the county brought action against his father for the cost of his maintenance. “It is my opinion,” said Judge Heb- bard, “that a moral obligation at least rests upon the father of this plaintiff. It is my opinion that a similar case was up before Judge Seawell for ad- Judication and that he decided in favor of the claimant. A Before I decide this case I will give counsel for the claim- ant opportunity to search for this au- thority.” The case was continued for further hearing in accordance with this ruling. Lucien P. Bacigalupi is now 25 years of age. He has b-'n blind ever since he was 3 years old, and in view of this infirmity is unable to earn his living CHARGED WITH BURGLARY.—Pierre Lambert, 19 years of age. was arrested early yesterday morning by Policeman E. J. Nolan on Wayland street and booked on a charge of burglary. He is accused of entering the room of Pablo Alcorto at the University Ranch and stealing $128 which Alcorto kept hidden under the mattress. ADVERTISEMENTS. Removal Notice.
