SOCIETY CIRCLES ARE PERCEPTIBLY AGITATED SCANDAL IN ORIENTAL ELITE Haslop Defending His Castle From' Invasion and is Arrested for As sault Manuel Claudina Sentene- 9 ed to Six Months for Vagrancy. Fashionable Chinese society circles have recently been shaken from & ter to circumference over the com plaint filed by Lao She, wife of Lam Yip, one of the prominent business men of Chinatown. The woman appeared before ,Judge Wilcox in police court yesterday as a complaining witness to j. charge of assault and battery preferred against her husband. It is alleged that Lam Yip has for some time past treated his wife in a cruel and inhuman man-' 1 lid. A. HIC UUtiWC Ul "i -- t ner. At the advice of ner inenas ' Lau She took her troubles into court Owing to the inadvertable absence' of important witnesses for the prose-, cution, the case was postponed until i Friday morning. In anticipation of 'he sensational testimony likely to , be preuueed, the court room was thronged with Orientals of high and ' low degree. Ah Ngee, a confessed vagrant, was' presented with three months free bed and board at the Iwilei winter resort. I Ching Ah Foon, a Chinese woman., charged with desertion, was allowed her freedom, a reconciliation having j been effected between herself and her ' husband. The charge of rape against Ho Kit' was withdrawn and he was released, i It was a case in which the prosecu tion failed to prosecute. Five gamblers, including an admix ture of races from Japanese to Porto Ricans, were arraigned and a ma jority pleadPil Kuilty. Three Portu guese fought the case. They were all discharged. M. G. Reiman. an aged and some-' what decrepit Italian, was advised to keep out of the premises of residents on lower Queen street if he would i preserve a countenance free from blemish or disfigurement Reiman was prowling about the yard of Charles Haslop on Monday evening, when "the proprietor of the Haslop es tate sallied out to ascertain the mis sion of the visitor. Haslop claimed that instead of replying, or giving any information regarding his appear ance on his premises. Reiman grap pled with him. and a scuffle ensued in which Haslop came out first best. Reiman later swore out a warrant for the arrest of Haslop charging him with assault and battery. Judge Wil cox dismissed the charges against Haslop declaring that under the cir rtimstances Haslop was justified in d fending his person on his own premises. 'Manuel Claudina. the Porto Rican, caught on the premises of Mrs. Hough en Richards street, was charged with vagrancy, pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to six months at the reef Another charge of larceny in tin sec ond degree will come up before the police court on Friday. A trio of drunks were assessed the regular 2 fine. A reprimand and discharge w r followed by the relea'se of Geo. Kau pena. charged with disobedienc? to parents. IT IS,TO LAUGH.
