Police COURT Yesterdsy, in the Police !
Court, the case of John Filand, for misde- |
meanor, was continued until November D. |
Charles Herman, for drunkenness, pleaded |
guilty, and was sentenced to five days in the |
City Jail. John Hsloway pleaded guilty to
a similar offense, and was sentenced to the |
City Jail for three days. a. Keith, upon a |
like charge, was dismissed. George White |
sides, arrested in q similar groggy condition, |
failed to appear, and his deposit was for |
feited Charles Woods, William SprOut and |
Frank Smith, a triplicate Of ysgrants, de- |
manded a Jury trial, and their cases were
continued until November I'd. George Fox,
a very sly young man, who has been lodging
the police officers for some time, was treed
Wednesday evening on Third street, near X,
under very suspicious circumstances, and the
otiicers considering him their legitimate
prey, conveyed their catch to the station
house. On searching him the trophies of the
chase were found to be concealed weapon
and small outfit Of burglar tools, consisting
of skeleton keys and pair of nippers for in.
serting into keyhole from the outside and
turning the lawful key around until it can be
pushed cut, and false one used on the lock.
His Honor. looked at the fixtures, and cen.
sidering the fact that Mr.. Fox had only been
out Of the State Prison very short time,
came to the conclusion that he was getting in
a business stock far too fast for the good of
the community, and that he was too cunning
an animal to be let run at large, so the SEN
tence was $50 days in the County Jail.
ANOTHER RAPE FIEND.-Last evening
Sheriff George AlcQuade, of TuOlumne coun-
ty. arrived at the city prison, having in
charge Indian Joe, en- route to Folsom. The
prisoner was convicted of the crime of rape
at the October term of the Superior Court of
Tuolumne county, and sentenced by Judge
J. +. Rooney to the State Prison for thirty
years. This case ia as horrible in it's details
as those which recently occurred in San FrsE-
cisco, and the Toohy way Of disposing of this
wretch meets with the entire approval of the
community in which the crime was com
mitted. The prisoner is an intelligent In
dian, &c years old, speaks good English, hay-
ing lived with white people all his life.
Listening to his polite uttersncss and his
protestations of innocence, one is lest in won
dering how such person could assault an
aged woman and beat her into a dying condi-
ton. His guilt was fully established, and
now he has gone to meet Kyle.
DISCHARGED FROM PRIsoN.-About four
months since Charles johnson ard Frank
Morrow, who kept an Intelligence Office -

were unable to give; consequently have re-
LAAlutt II tll since kutlF AfEtSbs Lie 4Bls-
trict Attorney stated to the Court yesterday
that he did not think he could convict them
OF the crime, as Gil the evidence against them
was simply circumstantial They are the
two young men who negotiated draft st
the California State Bank for 1921, with the
name Of 9. +. Seal iudo-sed thereon. Mr..
Seal is wealthy Oregon cattle man, and his
signature on the draft referred to was a
forgery.

ure last evening on 'Our Saloons was an

ceipts for the manufacture Of different
