What galled her, little Mrs. Leslie Falkenburg declared, was the idea of Leslie having forcibly faken possession of their two young children and tran ferred theém to the custody of Ella Johnson, with whom he lived in a tent pitched ddjacent to his father's place of residence, 311 Edinburgh street. “I-don’t care THAT for kim,” quoth the petite.matron, snapping her fingers to illustrate the cheapness in which she TOD MU AMILITARY J held her spouse, “but my when I think o' Ella Johnson motherin’ my younguns.” And her big round eyes glared mingled contempt and ferocity at Mr. Falkenburg, a house painter of languid mien, with baby-blue eyes, a Byronic forehead and weak mouth He was accused before Police Judge Mogan of having battered her when she resisted his endeavor to oust her from the house on Vienna street in which he Hhad abandoned her. averred that the attempted eviction was prompted solely by malice, but he pléaded that it was in response to ap- peal from the owner of the premises, a lady who was shocked by Mrs. Falken- burg’'s conduct in entertaining soldiers therein at unseasonable hours. “That’s why I left her, an’ that's I took th' children away from her, told the Judge. “She wasTleadin’ an unmoral life.

Then came an interesting disclosure. Asked by the court how many children she had, Mrs. Falkenburg haltingly re- plied that she was mother of three. Whereupon her husband drawled that only two of them owed paternity to him. “The other one was born unbe- knownst to me,” he said, workin' in th’ country, an’ she put it out in adoption.” She did not challenge the disclaimer. “Ah!” said the Judge, upon whose mind a great light was evidently dawn- ing, “were not you folk before me about a year ago?” They were. At that time Mrs. Falken- burg, then Miss Mamie Garrity, com- plained that Mr. Falkenburg was about to matry one Ella Johnson, and had beaten her (Mamie) when she reminded him of their two children and suggested that he lead her to the altar instead of Ella. The Judge gave him alternative of making Mamie his wife or spending \l!x months in jail, and he accepted the | imprisonment, but soon afterward changed his mind and became Mamié's legal husband, whereupon he was 1ib- erated. “So you are the same couple,” said his Honor, when the situation had been made cléar to him. “Now, why can't you live in harmony?’ “It's them soldiers,” averred M F'alkenburg “they’re always: aroun’ her. “It's that Ella Johnson,” declaréd Mrs. Falkenburg; “he lives in a tent | with her.” ““Well, whether it's too much military or 'too much Johnson, thé fact remains that vou have no right to beat your wife,” sald the Judge to the defendant, “and unless you can show better cause for having done so than you have yet | proved I shall again send you to jai Mr. Falkénburg then applied for and | was given until tomorrow to bolster his | ARMAND CAILLEAU .

Battel, when it dashed at terrific speed out of Golden Gate Park and al- most prostrated a wayside inn at Oak ond Stanyan streets. Mr. Burns told Patrolmen Judge and Guest that he was the owner of the machine, so they arrested him for exceeding the legal limit and booked the names of his companions. When arraigned before Judge Conlan he said he was 32 years of age and an invalid, and indulged in automobiling for its health-giving qualities, but when asked as to the identity of the young men who were with him in the park he affected much concern lest it be be published and finally declined to- disclose it. That was why the case was continued till tomorrow, when Messrs. Whittell, Brown and Battel will probably be in court. * e .

Y there was beer, but not enough of it to intoxicate. Miss Crystal averred that she was sited to accompany Mrs. Miner to t Mr. Dailey. The beer was of Seattle brew, and she did.not know how or where Mr. Dailey procured it. Mr. Dailey swore he was agreeably surprised by having the two ladles drop into the basement at 11 o'clock p. m., and he simply treated them as any gentleman would treat any lady. The beer? Oh, it was some he had pur- chased prior to the shake-up. He had been living in that' basement two weeks, and it was the first time the peace failed to find preservation therein. The Judge—I believe all of you have been arrested before. al—Oh, heavens! h t? Mr. Dalley—Never! The Judge—The female defendants| are found guilty and the case of the male defendant is continued until to- morrow, Miss Crystal—Good heavens! Mrs. Miner—W-h-a-t?

She was arrested last Wedn8sday | tor quarreling with two men for | whom stie worked as a cook in the | Potrero refugee camp, but when the case was called before Judge Ca- baniss thére was no_appearance for the' prosécution. and the complaint was about’ to be-quashed when she imprudently informed the court that she had $40 sewed in the hem of her irt and profeséed both ability and readiness to pay a $5 fine. Her offer 25 accepted. and Bailiff Ring es- corted her to a first-floor room, where | in scolusion she could detach the §5 | from the $40.” but while he awaited | her reappearance in the corridor she | | clambered through the window and| {escaped. Then he reported her disap- pearance, the Judge sighed audibly | and marked the case as dismissed for lack of prosecution. | Meantime the fugitive hied her back | to the Potrero and repeated the very | offense for which she was originally arrested, and she was again taken |into custody. That was _how she |came to be before Judge Shortall. | “You must not return there and an- noy respectable people,” was what he said to her, and what she said in retort was, “D've mean t' say 1 ain’t as re- spectable as anybody there?’ His an- swer was a command that she be held for senténce. | | | | 1 » . Eight - year - old Jimmie Smith acknowledged having hurled the brick | that was stopped by twenty-five-year- |old Buno Pucci’s nose, to the consid- | erable disfigurement of that organ. “But why did you do it?” Judge Cabaniss asked Jimmie. “I'm workin’ in a butcher shop at Californy an’ Fillmore streets,” was | the response, delivered with some show of self-importance, ‘an I was playin’ on Willow street- “Ah,” his Honor interrupted. “then yol are not the boy, Jack, who was made dull by all work and no play?” | “No, sir,” replied Jimmie; “my name |ain’t Jack; it's James.

LIGENSE MONDAY Supervisors Will Decide on Tax Saloon Men Must Pay Sub- Commlttee of Board Is Unable to Reach Agreement. In addition to consideration of the building ordinance, which the Board of Supervisors will take up at a special meeting next Monday morning as a committee of the whole, the body will thresh out the saloon license question. The building ordinance may consume more time than is expected, but unless something interferes the saloon men will learn just what they can expect. Originally a matter entirely for the license committee, it was passed up to the committee of the whole because of the acknowledged inability of the three men who compose the subcommittee to agree upon any one line, or, in fact, any twd lines, of policy. Every one of the trio has a different idea of what should be done, and in consequence they agreed to dlsagree. Supervisor Kelly, chairman of the committeg, is a firm believer In a $200 yearly license. Supervisor Sanderson voted for a $500 license, but thinks that for a few months, until the saloon men are on their feet, there should be no increase over the present rate of $84 every twelve months. Their beliefs admitted of no read- justinent and an informal report was handed to the committee of the whole stating the various conclusions that had been reached and suggesting that all of the Supervisors might settle the matter better than three. As regards the granting of licenses for saloons situated in groceries or other mercantile establishments, the committee of three reported that it was their understanding that the Supervis- ors have no further authority than to fix the license. It rests entirely with the Board of Police Commissioners, said the report, to regulate the places where liquor may be sold, as well as the matter of hours during which the saloons may remain open. What will the committee of the whole do next Monday? Follow the suggestions of the Mayor, who favors a $500 license? That is what one of the wise ones, who follows the situation, says will be the plan, and it looks as if he knows what he is talking about. —_— GATHERING OF FUNDS FOR SCHOOLS PROGRESSES WELL Returns From Cbildren in All Parts of the Coumtry Are Received at Headquarters. The work of collecting funds for the reconstruction of the schools is pro- gressing favorably. Encouraging re- ports are being received from all parts of the country. Superintendent R. P. Bryan of the State of Washington, who has already given valuable assistance in the cam- paign, has sent out a letter to the Su- | perintendents of his State urging them to establish a San Francisco day, when all of the school children of the State may contribute. This day has been fixed for November 28—a Thanksgiv- | ing offering. Professor Bryan gives | credit in his letter to the little city of Davenport, which has already con- tributed, through Superintendent Crau;, $69 to the fund. Superintendent Frank | E. Parlin of the Quincy, Mass., School | Department writes that a collection Is being taken among the pupils of his city, and the money will be forwarded through the Massachusetts headquar- ters.
