Fleming's Valuables Went.

He Must Explain to a Jury Where
Fleming's ValuabIes Went.
Several weeks ago two men-one greatly
under the influence of liquor and the other
perfectly sober-applied for a room in a
Fourth-street lodging-house, very late at
night. They were accommodated, and
shortly after retired, having been quar-
tered in the same room.
The next day saw only one of the men
in the room. 1t was the one who had
been under the influence of liquor the
night before. His pockets were found to
have been torn and turned inside out, and
his money and watch were gone.
The man went to the police station and
reported his loss. He gave his name as
Joseph Fleming, and gave good descrip-
ton of his roommate. The police have
been searching for the latter ever since
and eventually captured him. His name
is William Adams.
Adams was examined in the Police
Court yesterday. The landlady of the
lodging-house, as well as the chamber
maid failed to recognize either of the men,
and Fleming was the only witness of any
importance. But his testimony was
enough, and Adams will now have to con-
vince jury of twelve men in the Superior
Court OF his innocence before he can again
walk the streets a free man.

ADJUSTMENTS,

Rosina Vokes and her comedy company
played in two comedies and farce last
evening at the Metropolitan Theater to a
large audience, and one of the best that
Sacramento can furnish. The performance
was revival. 1t brought to the surface
once more the fine old style of low comedy
art. Contrasted with the unreal, extrava-
CANT and burlesque comedy --so-called-
of the present day. it was a revela-
ton. It recalled wildly the times
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Wood, Mr.. and Mrs.
Boxer, Mrs. Leighton and host of actors
of the old school, when only superior ex-
cellence was tolerated by California audi
ences. Miss Vokes' success was instant
and pronounced. Her acting was a master
piece of humor, while in carriage and the
management of the dance, she was the
personifcation of grace. Her performance
was not only honest endeavor, but il was
wholly and Enthusiastically successful

of Bodie, Nevada, asking the former to in

knew the latter to be an upright and hon.

he says, are poor and cannot afford to
make such a search for their missing
brother as they would desire, consequently
any assistance that might be rendered
would be greatly appreciated by them.
