scarcely recognized him; but he soon betrayed
himself by his restless demeanor. Capt. White
tracked him down St. Anthony, Third and jack
son streets, where seeing that the suspected par
ty was visibly gaining on him, he divested him
self of his coat, and after an exciting race sue
ceeded in arresting him in the bar-room OF the
Fuller House. The prisoner was taken to the
new Jail !; young man only % years of age, the
first inmate of our county prison. About $lOO
in money were found on his person, and some ar
ticles in his room which have since been recog-
nized by the owners. The prisoner has his ex-
animation to-day in the City Hall, and while cir
cumstances against him now look dark, we shall
be glad to hear that he is honorably acquitted.
