Beadle and Lou Williams were con-
victed in the municipal court yesterday
of keeping house of i'll fame at No. 4
First street south. The Tracey woman
was the only one charged with the
offense, but the evidence produced
showed that all of the women owned an
equal share in the house and contrib
uted an equal share of all the money
used. Miss Tracey was sent to the
wOrkhouse for ninety days and the
other women for thirty days each. AS
Lou Williams was sickly, the court al
lowed her to go to the House of the
Good Shepherd.

Quoted by H. K. LamOreauX, and yes
terday his case was called before Judge
Emery in the municipal court. When
the complaint vas read the counsel
for the defense objected to it, and
asked for the discharge of his
client because the complaint was
not specific. The court sustained
the objection, but another complaint
was Immediately filed. The police Off
GERS testified that they had seen two
persons inside the saloon on Sunday,
but admitted that they had seen num-
Der of persons try the door and go away
without getting in. Several other Off
GERS swOre that Mr.. LamoreauX had al
ways kept his place closed on Sunday,
even before the present ordinance was
passed. The defendant admitted that
he was in his place on Sunday last, and
said that he had gone into his Office in
the rear of his saloon to get some money
out of the safe. He declared that he
had never knowingly violated any of the
liquor laws. The case will be concluded
to-day.
Mike Mcdonald. who is said to be a
young thief, was before Judge Emery
in the municipal court yesterday morn
ing, charged with rObbing Michael Nc
Donald, stranger in the city, of a
pocketbOOk containing about $40. The
McDonalds are not related, but met in
Pat Lyons saloon on First street south.
The similarity of their names caused
Michael TO treat, and then Mike re-
lieved Michael of his pOcketbOOk. When
Michael appeared before the court in
the morning he found that the case had
been continued until afternoon. After
the court had adjourned, Michael ap-
preached Judge Emery and in the most
confidential manner tried to borrow a
couple of dollars until he could get his
money back. The Judge declined, how
ever. to make the loan.
When the case was called at 2 o'clock
Michael was glOriOusly drunk. He was
goOd-natured, withal. and none of the
court officers noticed his condition until
he reached the witness chair. His silly
answers gave him away, and when in
answer to the city attorneys question
as to where he lost his money he ex-
citedly exclaimed, You ought to know.
you rascal, you were there" Judge
Emery took him in hand.
"How much have you drunk tO-day?"
inquired the court.
Didn't drink nOthin'."
Now, see here. You go away and
get sober. and if you come into this
court again in the condition you are in
now | will send you to the wOrkhouse."
The case was continued until this MORN

head and dragged me all over the house."

of The State against Robert Black, who
was charged with threatening Frankie's
life. frankie was big woman, and
looked as if she could take her part in
any company.

Assistant City Attorney Dunn.

he has whipped me several times. and l
want to get my furniture out of the
house and go home, and he won't let
me-"
"What kind of house do you keep"
asked Judge Emery.
'A sporting house."
AZ thought So" exclaimed the court,
angrily. Now want you people to
understand that you can't bring your
quarrels into this court. If you COM
nit any overt act will punish both of
YOU. Now get out of here"
