Anthony Lotus Occupies Lofty Position
in the Station House Yes erday,
Officer Nugent arrested Anthony Lotus
yesterday morning at the fremont house,
corner of Eighth and Robert streets Lotus
was charged by one johnson with the larceny
of S18. The two were companions, having
come from near Howard Lake, where thew
had been working together in Myers gang,
on the st. Paul q Pacific road. The day
previous they had been doing the town: their
time and talents being most given to thor
ough examination of the saloons
AS the shades of night were falling.
they inquired for and obtained lodging at
the fremont house. After supper they be-
gan ''to 6o'' the town some more. After a
while Lotus came in and stumbled up stairs
to his room. After that johnson came in and
stumbled up stairs, and butted up against
the door of the room to be jointly occupied
by him and Lotus. Lotus opened the door
ana took his companion in, shut the door,
and said, ''we are all safe now' In the morn
lngJohnson gotup and found Lotus gone and
his money gone too. He gave the alarm,
reported to the police, and search was in
stltuted for Lotus. He was finally found in
bed, again sleeping off "the night before.''
lie was aroused, accused, and he denied.
The bed and his clothes were tumbled over,
and ten dollar bill found, which johnson
identified as his property; some silver in
addition was found about or around Lotus.
or IN the room. johnson declares his money
was left in his vest the night before and
wasn't there when he got up yesterday morn
ing. The likely story is that johnson came
in pretty well soaked, just don't remember
exactly how much money he had or where he
stored it away for safe keeping. After all.
Lotus passed yesterday in no thankful state
OF mind in the station house, and had no
turkey.

A pretty girl OF twenty-three was
offered $1,000 by very old man if she
would marry him. One. can imagine
her indignation-how her eyes flashed,
how she stamped her foot, how she said
she would rather be young mans
slave, ETC., and how the old man turned
away, deeming himself lucky to have
escaped with his hair intact. P. S.
She accepted him.
