After Few Hours Of Freedom He is Again
Imprisoned.
J. l.. Perkins, the self styled deputy su-
preme commander of the Knights of Au-
rora, who it appears has rather unsavory
reputation, and who was thrown in Jail on
the charge of robbing his room mate of q
watch, was given few hours of liberty yes
terday. It was made to appear on the first
charge that Perkins was doing friendly
act to his room mate, who says he was
drunk, and realizing this Perkins took the
watch to preserve it and gave it back when
demanded.
OF course Mr.. Perkins presented case of
injured innocence as the county attorney
declined to proceed with the case on such a
small foundation. But fate was against
Perkins. He was Swallowed by special Of
icer and during the afternoon he
was again placed under arrest. this time on
the charge of obtaining money fraudulently
and by false pretenses. The Cosmopolitan
hotel held one of his checks for $40 and
Mangrein Bros, saloon keepers, held one
for similar sum, and neither of these were
honored at the bank upon which they were
drawn. And to add to the list, Mongrein
Bros. have draft drawn upon st. Paul
house for $50, upon which Perkins secured
$40, and this draft was refused at st. Paul
The officers claim to have a good case
against this misguided young man, though
efforts were being made Yesterday by some
Of his friends to adjust his shortcomings
