En route to the patrol box the prisoner admitted he had “bumped her fo'haid,” and added that she was in love with a white man and yearned to have him (Mr. M.) placed in prison so that he would not be an obstacle to free indulgence of the illicit amour. Mr. Magee did not deny that he had sald what the policeman reported. Moreover, he did not propose to have white trash snooping around his home. He had caught a putative white man named Walsh in the kitchen of that home and what further evidence of his wife's infidelity .could he be expected to wait for? “Who is the wrecker of the erstwhile happy home?” his Honor asked. “His name’s Walsh,” was the reply. Needless to wyite that Mr. Walsh—if such person really existed outside of Mr. Magee's inflamed imagination—did not respond to the bailiff’'s summons, bawled in court and corridor, to come into court. After the hearing had been continued till next Tuesday the Judge was re- Hably Informed that Mr. Magee was dis- honorably dismissed from the army for having shot at a sergeant, and that since then he has depended for maintenance upon his wife's laundry work. * e . Edward McNamara worked three days as elevator conductor in, the Hotel Edgemere, 731 Bush street, and when he applied for the $2:50 compensation due for his services the proprietor's brother, Attorney A. Perry Harris, was temporarily managing the hostelry and suggested that the claim be withheld until the following day, when It would doubtless be pald when presented to the only person authorized to pay it. Instead of acting upon that reason- able” suggestion, however, Mr. Mc- Namara assumed an injured air and arbitrarily declared that@ntil his bill was pald he would comsider the hotel in his possession. Then; to make good that declaration he strutted the hall- ways and interfered in every possible way with the management until he was arrested for peace disturbance, “I guess I acted foolishly,” he sald to Judge Mogan. “I am sure you did,” was the re- sponse, “and I must pronounce you gullty as charged. Sentence Monday.” e e Leon and Marle Rey, both from la belle France, were divorced four months ago, - — and when the woman was released from several weeks' confinement in the City and County Hospital Jast Friday she { drank two pint bottles of cheap vintage and, with courage thus alcoholically forti- fied, went to the man's home, 200 Golden Gate avenue, and applied for admittance. He rejected the application, and when she endeavored to force entrance he thrust her back and locked all the doors. Then she procured a heavy stick and with it smashed two of the front windows, for which she was arrested. “1 was verray seeck,” she told Judge Mogan. “‘She was verray dronk,” declared Mons. Rey. “Ah, heaven, no,” she contended. “I dreenk ze leetle—just ze l-e-e-t-l-e—wine to give me ze strength. Bot not ze dronk “I will allow you to go on your own recognizance, to reappear here at the end of thirty days,” sald the Judge, “and if you should happen to be arrested for peace disturbance before then to jail you will be sent.” “‘Thanks, verray moach,” said Madame Rey. e . Since he was transplanted, from his native Luzon one Juan Sanchez has “haunted the Presidio, probably with the hope of finding opportunity to return to the Philippines, and when begging has failed to bring sufficient returns to satisfy his craving for food he has re- sorted to theft. It was for -stealing clothes from a soldier that the little brown man was arrested by Patrol Ser- geant Owen Davis and sentenced to sixty days’ imprisonment by Judge Mo- gan. . s e Mrs. H. B. Green, landlady of an apart- ment-house at 503 Grant avenue, hoped that Judge Conlan would not imagine she was prompted by a spirit either mean or arbitrary when she caused the arrest of Charles A. Lawson, a money broker's clerk, because he had neglected to pay the $56 which he owed her for room rental, Indeed, her treatment of his wife and children showed that she was of gen- erous disposition, for she permitted them to remain in her house after she had in- formed him that he must either settle up or get out. Or if he were unable to pay what he owed there would be no insist- ence on her part, but she knew that he was in weekly receipt of more than suf- ficlent money to defray his family ex- penses. That and much more did the lady say to the Judge ere he gave Mr. Lawson until next Tuesday to either pay his overdue rental or accept punishment for defraud- ing an innkeeper. “ s e Among the newly arrived United States infantrymen en route to the Philippines are Privates Henry F. Klein, Arthur H. Cassell and Willlam Thompson, and in the regiment it is understood that they are as firmly cemented in comradeship as were Dumas’ guardsmen three or Kip- ling’s trio of “Tommies.” 80 when a life- long feminine acquaintance of Private Klein accidentally met him on Market street, expressed delighted astonishment and cordially invited hilm to spend an evening at her home, on Commercial strect, it was not extraordinary that he managed to have his two chums included in the invitation. From the testimony adduced before Judge Mogan, where Privates Klein, Cgs- sell and Thompson were accused of peace disturbance, it was apparent that the house party was harmonious, and prob- ably so would have terminated if the hostess had not insisted on introducing her phonograph and having it roll off “Dearfe.” The guests maintained silence until the tune was finished, and then Pri- vate Thompson said, “Well, thank good- ness, that’s over.” 5% SHIS LANDLORD POISONED DAL A. W. McGuire Swears Out a Warrant for the Arrest of Aged Charles A. Nutsen HOUND DIES SUDDENLY Property Owner Accused of Having Given Canine Meat Sprinkled With Strychnine A. W. McGuire, 1806 Fifteenth avenue, South, obtajned a warrant from Police Judge Mogan yesterday for the arrest of Charles A. Nutsen, his landlord, on a charge of poisoning a dog, which is a felony under a section of the Penal ode. McGuire told the Judge that on Feb- ruary 15 his wife saw Nutsen throw a plece of meat over the fence into his yard. He had a valuable hound, which ate the meat and five minutes later died in great agony. On the same day Nut- sen met a boy on the street who was leading a dog by a string and Nutsen threw a plece of meat to that dog, which ate it and dled in a few minutes. The stomachs of the two canines were sent to the City Chemist for analysis {and a report was received that large quantities of strychnine, were found, showing, as McGuire sdys, that the meat had been poisoned. McGuire accused Nutsen of poisoning his dog and he says Nutsen did not deny it and gave as his reason that he had a strong dislike for canines in gen- eral and those in that neighborhood in particular, as they were a nulsance. They howled during the night and kept people from obtaining sleep that was needful, he sald. Nutsem owns con- siderable property in that locality. Nutsen was out of town yesterday and the rrant could not be served upon him. His wife alleges that it was spite work on McGuire's part and that he was trying to get even with them for having pressed a rent bill when it was overdue. Nutsen is a feeble man, 76 years old. e AR e B e Thompson. ““Well, I think it's just lovely, tended. “1 could listen to it all day. “If you had been listening to fellers singing it all day and all night for a week aboard the train that brought us | here from New York you'd want no more ‘Dearie’ in yours for a year,” warmly re- joined Private Thompson. Then turning to his comrades he inquired, “Would she, boys?” They discreetly sidestepped the query by asking the lady if she would favor them with some otlier popular tune, Pri- vate Klein expressing desire to hear “Wait Till the Sun Shines, Nellle.” “No,"” she coldly responded, “but we’ll have some more ‘Dearfe.’”” And she suit- ed the action to the word by turning the crank that put the machine in operation. Not, however, until the first line of “Dearle’” rolled from the Instrument did Private Thompson rise in protest. With a single blow of his mighty fist he shat- tered the box and then stamped upon the fragments until they were mere splinters. Private Klein's spirit of comradery was precipitated into active canflict with his sensc of gallantry by the lady, whom he held in very high esteém, calling upon him to annihilate the wrecker, and. ere he could. bring himself to obey either prompting the work of demolition was complete. Then she hissed, “‘Coward!” | and summoned police aid. | “Each of them,” she said to the Judge, but glaring contemptuously at Private Klein, “was as bad as the other.” By promising to provide the lady with a-phonograph just as good as the one de- stroyed and to replace the ruined *Dearie” record the defendants obtained release. They sail for Manila tomorrow.

DECLARES WAR ON WKINLAY Outgoing Postmaster of San- ta Rosa Speaks His Mind With Remarkable Vigor A. B. Lemmon, a well-known Repub- lican of the Second Congressional Dis- trict, is out in the open waging war on Congressman D. E. McKinlay. A few days ago Assemblyman H. L. Tripp was appointed postmaster at Santa Rosa to succeed Mr. Lemmon, who has held this Federal position for the last eight years. It does not appear that JLemmon was an applicant for reap- pointment. In fact, his friends say that he did not expect a third term, but they surmised or hoped that the Con- gressman would leave him alone. Certain comments touching the change misrepresented Lemmon and caused him to speak his mind freely concerning events and incidents of the campaign In the Second District in 1904, The Congressman is accused of lying in regard to the cancellation of his name on the register of Sonoma County and of subsequent registration in San Francisco. The light vote for the Republican nominee for Congress as compared with the large vote for the Republican nominee for President in Sonoma is cited by Lemmon to illus- trate the unpopularity of McKinlay, where he is best known. In the let- ter Lemmon refers to interviews ‘n his own home in ‘Santa Rosa and at the Union League Club in San Francisco with McKinlay, whose version of the registration tangle was then accepted as true. WELL PAID FOR ORATORY. Lemmon refers to his own service on the Republican State executive com- ittee in many campaigns, and says that he used his influence to engage McKinlay ‘as a campalgn speaker, for which) service to the party the orator was amply compensated in coin. The records of the State committee, it brougnt to public gaze, would show that many other leading Republicans, quite as eminent and eloquent the Congressman of the Second strict, were liberally paid for campaign speeches. The e General W. H. L. Barnes, who never recelved any re- ward from the party, always paid his own expenses on speaking tours. He declined to accept reimbursement for expenses or pay for his : hes from the State committee. The point that the committee paid McKinlay is rather far fetched. If figures could be ad- duced to show how much the Congress- man was paid, the question might then be raised that the amount was exces- i e Gfllette of the First e .

In due season the convention was held, Frank Coombs got' the ‘nomination for Congress, and Thomas H. Selvage suc- ceeded Gillett In the State Senate. CLEVER POLITICAL STROKE. Four years ago Gillett and Selvage were candidates- for the Republican nomination in the First. Selvage had a majority of the delegates at Sacra- mento, but he hesitated and blundered in affairs relating to the organization of the State convention when Neff and Metealf were candidates for chairman. A clever stroke of politics on the part of Neff's leading supporters gave “Uncle Jake” the chairmanship of the State convention and Gillett the nomi- nation for Congress. Gillett was sur- prised and gratified. He was nomi- nated again two years later and ' re- elected by an increased majority. Many of his warmest supporters are predict- ing that he will reconsider his plans for this campaign and take the certainty of renomination for Congress in pref- erence to the uncertainty of a nomina- tion for Governor. Candidates to suc- ceed him in Congress are already num- erous, the most formidable of the as- pirants at this time seems to be W. F. Englebright, a well-known civil and mining engineer of Nevada County. Word comes from Amador County that former State Senator E. C. Voor- heis has no desire for a Congressional nomination.
