petit larceny-stealing the paper of coffee
from the grocery of N. J. King-and in the
absence of cash to satisfy the demand, he was
sent to the county jail for term of twenty
five days That steal made a pretty black
cup of coffee for the offender. Mollie Roberts
was also sent to the county jail for sixty days,
upon conviction of sustaining the mellow
condition Of a common drunk or that drunk
has become her normal condition. Antonio
Francisco Corosma was convicted of petit
larceny, stealing ths portemonnaie containing
SO and other valuables from Mrs. Mont
gomery, at the corner of Fourth and q
streets sentence to be awarded to-day. He
was one of the chief men employed upon
street improvements under the Street Com
missioner. j.. d. Adams was found guilty
of disturbing the peace and fined 80. The
charge of carrying concealed weapons was
dismissed. The case of perjury against Chas.
Colehower, and that of receiving stolen prop
erty against John and Catherine Donovan,
were continued until the 30th inst.
LARCENY AND Perjury. Charles Cole
hover yesterday appeared before Justice j.
c. Tubbs fer examination upon charge Of
grand larceny, and for which he has been
tried once for burglary, it appearing that
the horse which was taken. and which was
the subject of the charge, belonged to de-
PENDANT, but was held under a lien fol-
pasture. The saddle, bride and lariat, which
were stolen, considered apart from the horse
were not of sufficient value to constitute
grand larceny. The defendant pleaded guilty
to petit larceny, which was accepted, and the
charge of grand larceny dismissed. Cole
hover waived time, and was sentenced to psy
fine $50, or in default to serve term Of
twenty days in the County Jail. The charge
of perjury, filed by the District Attorney,
against Colehower still stands against him,
and is regarded a clear and unquestionablt
case. II is set for preliminary examination
in the Police Court tomorrow.
