With appetite whetted by . extended
consumption of unvaried army rations,
Charles Clarkson and William McClls
ter. private Infantrymen from the Pre
sidio, dropped, into a restaurant on
Kills street, between Stockton and
Powell, and ate of choice viands. When
it came to paying for the feast Private
Clarkson pronounced exorbitant the bill
for 65 cents presented, to him by Stew
ard I,lbon and offered 35 cents, which
the steward refused. Private Clarkson
thereupon started for the door, r but
among those present was Police Cap
tain Duke, who arrested hjm and hia
comrade and charged them with at
tempting to defraud an innkeeper. ;
"I have' a dollar in my. duds,"' said
Private Clarkson to Judge Cabantss,
"and to avoid further trouble I'll pay
this kuy his 55 cents."
Manuel King, accused of stealing a
diamond pin valued at $300 from Mr«,
Eva Wangenheim of 1706 Broadway, told
Judge Cabantei! that he was an actor
by profession and known to meager fame
as Waiter Fellows, tf»i«- being his norn
de stage. He is charged with ''grand lar
ceny and will be tried to-day.
Nevertheless he resolved to devote more
attention to the cottage, and at an early
hoar yesterday morning, while saunter
ing past it, his ear« were suddenly as
sailed by a sound like unto the wailing
of a coyote in distress. He was startled
for an instant only, and next Instant he
was dashing Into the house of mystery.
Nothing could he see. except vacancy, and
he was about to withdraw and enroll him

him, came repetition of the blood-curdling
yell. Intrepid as ever, he ascended to the
shingles, and there It was he captured

kered and ragged of apparel, standing
erect and uttering wolverine screams. Be
fore the arrest was effected, however. Mr.
Kelly had changed his tune and was flap

claiming the morn a la chariticleer.
For five days and nights prior,, to his
detection had Mr. Kelly made me cottage
his unfurnished home. Asked by Police
Judge Mogan why he made the unearthly
noises, he confessed that they were cre
ated with intent to accentuate the wide
spread and deep-rooted idea that the cot
tage was haunted, his ulterior motive be
ing to secure for himself immunity from
annoyance by inquisitive folk so long as
he remained there. , ,
Then the Judge sentence i him to three
months* imprisonment.
the scoffers were thinning while the army
of belief was correspondingly recruited.
Persons who bad laughed with him over
the uncanny narrratrves began \u25a0to fall
away one by one, and he could scarce
trust his senses when sever.al of them
boldly informed him that they, had heard,

SALOON MAN BEATEN
BY A BURLY RUFFIAN
Housewives in the Liatln quarter xom-,
plained to Patrolman James. O'Connor
that a one-armed ' vagabond had a pen
chant-for prowling in back. yards atnia
tutinal hours and ' frightening ' all ' timid
persons who beheld him by his eerie tout
ensemble and eccentric behavior. So the
officer lay low and at 5 o'clock yesterday
morning found the person complained of
doing the very things : alleged. He said
his name was Narino Carrera, that j his
crippled condition prevented ,hlfn obtain
ing employment and ; that he . visited .the
back yards in; quest of food, ilt'.was in
pity, that Judge ' Cabanlss sentenced him
to thirty days' imprisonment.
William O'Connor, ; a cripple, was ac
cused of keeping ; disorderly house in
a rear room of his cigar store on Mis
sion street, near Sixteenth,, and ten
young fellows were charged with hav
ing aided and abetted him In the of
fense. Patrolman Rler, who made the
arrests, suspected poker playing, but
had no evidence •to prove lt, and the
defendants alleged that the reason for
their congregating, was social inter
course, they having-, organised a club
for that very purpose. .
"It's h funny, thing," one of the
juveniles remarked, ."that we hard
woikin* gents get pinched, for running
a club and the swell mugs downtown
are never touched." «
Argument accepted as clincher and
case dismissed by jSidg-e Cabanlss. '
Loretta Jackson, 16 years of age and
pretty, was given six months for in
corrigible waywardness, and Emma
Braig. similarly, accused and also young
and good looking, was placed in <fus
tody of her mother, a respectable ma
tron from Oakland, with admonition
that if the girl' is ever caught again in
San Frnacisco "she- will -also be Im
prisoned for, half a r year. ->"•' -
Seventeen-year-old Hazel/Adams was
so infatuated with the night life of the
Barbary Coast that after being twice
sent back to her parents In Oakland
she was found In an apartment of
Harry Farley's dance hall, 631 Pacific
street, by the policeman who had been
instructed to keep her out of circula
tion on this side of bay. It was
Suspected that she was the girl alluded
to in an anonymous threatening let
ter recently received by Judge Mogan,
and that suspicion was strengthened
when she said to his Honor, ere the
missive was mentioned:
"I'm sure it ain't my fault If my
friends write letters to you about me."
She was given five days and informed
that if she doos not return to Oakland
at the expiration of that period she
will be rearrested and given six
months.

them knew— or professed to know— about
the fight was that one man was standing
in a barroom when another man entered
and promptly knocked him down, vouch
safing no reason for the attack. 1 Nor did
the felled one solicit explanation, for he
regained hla feet as speedily as he*could
and drew a knife, with which he hinged
at his assailant, who brandished a simi
lar weapon and lunged In return. Then
the bartender prudently suggested that
for the sake of his good name- and fair
fame the warring gentlemen retire to the
street and there settle their differences,
and the suggestion was in course of adop
tion when the policeman spoiled the fes
tivity. " Considerable cloth was cut and
blood drawn ere the combat ceased, the
defendants averred, but for the life of
them they could not, tell who the fighting
men were or what became of them after
some vigilant spectator said, "Cheese It,
boys; cops." '
So the trio were discharged from cus
tody, and Patrolman Harrlgan gazed at
them with the expression of one who dla
believes.
When the Chinese larniderers removed
their presence and the implements of
their craft from a ramshackle cottaie at
Sacramento and Scott streets the neigh
borhood—which had long been hungering
for tbe distinction of having a "haunted
house" in Its midst— at once installed va
rious shadowy tenants therein. Little
boys and girls an<s not a few adults told
of having seen grewsoine sight* .in and
around the dingy, building. and Also gave
Imitations of hair-raising sounds which
they had heard emanate therefrom after
nightfall. So it came to pass that the
cottage was nocturnally shunned: by all
prudent residents of tne vicinage, and
only the skeptics viewed . it with the
freedom from fear that they displayed
during its days of corporal occupancy.
Among the latter, element was Patrol
man Webster. The cottage was on his
beat, and many a derisive guffaw or <julet
chuckle he had enjoyed over the tales—
"pipe dreams" he irreverently pronounced
them 1 — unfolded by the superstitious.
Gradually there came to him, however,
cognizance of the fact that the ranks of

«2ispesal made, of the fireman's case. It
O^velcped that Biythe had been in the

table. Frcra brokers, landladies, laun
dries, liverymen and clothiers they came
t.ntil the cleik was tired of reading.
CbSef Sullivau stated that the fireman
had been complained about for several
.\u25a0-oars and said that he had been trans
'rrred from one company to another in
'."pes that he wonld reform. The cap

in San Mateo County there ,waa>no'as
surance that ' it would 'be properly j cared
for by a private contractor arid .that 1 the
city itself should bury "the indigent dead.
The lowest bid was for $7 for each body
and the committee ta of ; the' opinion'; that
the' city, can bury the bod!es^f6r less than
that sum, although : it is not intended, to
skimp in the-matter of the arfangenwnts
for giving the unfortunate dead a decent
burial. '\u25a0<... ', " :
The plans of the Health Committee con
template the hiring of two men to pre
pare the bodies for burial. The : bodies
will be temporarily placed in a booth on
the City and County Hospital block, ; and
burials will take place every '•\u25a0 other day
for the prt sent. "J There is' a fund of 54500
available' for the: purpose, but it is not
contemplated by the committee to effect a
saving through the city doing the work,
the "object being to give all due respect
to the dead xind without the scandal that
has . attached to the burying by former
contractors. . ' •' . : .•",
