SAM LEE BADLY BATTERED.
The PigtnIIed Proprietor of "a BrOughton
Street Waehee Shop in Trouble.

The PigtRiIed Proprietor OF "a BrOughton
Street Waehee Shop in Trouble.
"Silence!" cried Magistrate Warning
Russell, Jr, while sitting behind his desk
yesterday afternoon.
Three Cinnamon, Greek and Con
stable Wetherh0rn were all trying to get
the undivided attention Of the representa-
tive of the law. The Greek gave a name
that sounded like Stadius. He told a
plain. unvarnished tale. Some days ago
he took his laundry to the "washee shop"
Of Sam Lee, on BrOughton street. sam, ac-
c0rding to custom gave his patron Il
check that was covered with hierOglYphics
like those on scent fan. Sam said it
was all right and stood tor pair OF pants
and some other articles.
Yesterday Stadius called for his
laundry, but the pants were not to be
found. The Celestial said that some one
had stolen them.
The owner demanded So 80, saying that
be had recently paid 50 for them. The
laundryman offered ST. 81 30, and finally
S. but Stadius would not settle for any
thing less than 81 90.
The boss of the shop asked to see the
ticket and when il was handed HIM he
hung it on the wall among hundred
others. He would not give it back, and
when Stadius reached to get 1t the oldest
Celestial became excited and demonstra-
tive, aud stepping To the door he quickly
locked It. This frightened the Pole and
he demanded TO be let out.
One of the pigtails grabbed him as the
door was unlocked.
"What did you do them" asked the
Magistrate.
II skipped" was the reply.
He at once had warrant issued for the
Celestials, who in their own tongue are
known as cone Lung and "IwO Lungs"
A third one, a keen-eyed brother, was
called in as an interpreter. The four for
eigners were about equally fluent in the
use OF English. 1t took considerable
patience and time to get both sides of the
story. aud the Justice sighed when the
evidedce was all in.
The case was settled by the Chinaman
paving a fine and the costs, and the So 80
for the pants.
Poor Sam Lee was still brOoding over
his experience with the law when an
other customer entered about IL O'Clock
last night. This one handed over his ticket
and received his clothes. Lee afterwaTd
stated that his customer said that he
would pay in a few days.
''No monee, no washee, by dammee,"
were SANS words.
The two got to fighting, and two stran-
gers came in and pitched into the
Chinaman. His face was cut
and he was bruised about the body.
Furniture was overturned, chairs broken,
"A window and door smashed, and the moor
was strewn with starched and ironed
linen.
When a policeman rushed up the as
sailants fed. Lee said that he had been
beaten with a char. He showed some
collars with the name w. NJ. Christian on
them, and he said that 1t was the name of
the man who assaulted him.

HEATING THE CAR LINES.
Two Little Girls Give Their BrOthe
and His Little Game Away.

Two Little Girls Give Their Brother
and His Little Game Away.
AS Conductor Barbee, of the Coast Line
Railway, was collecting fares few days
ago on his car he was handed two tickets
by two little girls who were passengers.
After looking at the pieces of pasteboard
for a moment the conductor asked the
children where they got them.
"My brother gave them to me-" said the
largest one, who was 10 or ii years OF age.
"Where does he get themw inquired
the conductor.
"He makes 'em," said the little one,
and then she added:
HE has pile that high" indicating
by her hands pile a foot in height.
Mr.. Barbee was naturally interested,
and made farther inquiries. The little
girls told where they lived, and said that
their brother had been working in O job
printing Office down town.
They maintained that the tickets were
good for a fare, because their brother
told them 80. 1t was learned that
the lad had been employed in Patton's
printing office. Mr.. Patton furnished the
company with their tickets. When the last
order was filled a quantity was left over,
Superintendent Cobb told Mr.. Patton To
destroy them, but it is supposed that the
youth got hold of them and carried them
off. No criminal proceedings have yet
! been instituted. Since the discovery oil
! the fraud new lot of tickets has been
printed, and the Issue OF the old ones has
! been stopped.
