HARD TO GUESS.

The Swearing Was Awful, and Puzzled
Court and Attorneys.
A young man named Henry Jones was
in the Police Court yesterday charged with
petit larceny in stealing valuables from the
room of an itinerant patent medicine ven
der in downtown hotel. Jones worked
for the man, and when the latter missed
his wife's watch and chain and about s25
in money, he suspected him Of the theft
and had him arrested, together with an
other employe.
In Court the defendant swore that one of
the witnesses for the prosecution was the
guilty party, and went on to describe how
he met him after coming from faro bank
over the saloon on the northwest corner of
Second and K Streets and how the wit
ness told him that he was going to "touch
of the patent medicine man and skip the
town.
In turn the accused witness swore that
he met the defendant coming down the
stsirs of the hotel with all the stolen prop
erty in his possession, and that the de-
fendant gave him half-dollar and told
him to 90 and get something to eat.
The testimony wss so contradictory that
the spectators in the room burst into laugh
ter several times while one was accusing
the other. IT wss hard to tell who was the
best liar. and City Attorney Church con-
feSsed that he hardly knew who to believe.
Judge Buckley said he considered the
story of the prosecuting witness the most
reasonable enc. and found the defendant
guilty. He will appear for judgment to-

FISH AND GAME.
Ell Dorado County Proposes to See the
Same Protected.

Ell Dorado County Proposes to See the
Same Protected.
The Supervisors of Ell Dorado county
have under consideration an ordinance to
protect the fish in our mountain stream by
preventing them from getting into the
bitches and destroyed in them. The pro-
posed ordinance is as follows: 1.-THE pro-
prietors of all water bitches and fumes
drawing their supply from the waters of
this county, shall place and keep in good
repair at the heads of their respective
bitches or fumes, through which the
water from the stream or lake entering the
ditch Or hume shall pass, strips of wood or
other material, the meshes between which
shall not exceed one inch in width, for the
prevention of the passage of fish from the
stream or lake into the bitches or fumes.
Any person taking water from any stream
or lake in this county in violation of the
provisions of this ordinance is guilty of
misdemeanor."
Another feature of fish protection,
says the Republican, "i is to require ditch
owners to leave at all times at least ten
inches of water in the stream at the head
of the ditch, so that fish can exist and get
up and down the stream. The Board is
also urged to adopt an ordinance for the
protection of deer by making it misde-
meanor to kill any of these animals for the
next two years. This measure is deemed
necessary by some of our citizens. as these
animals have died by hundreds in the
mountains this winter on account of the
unusually heavy snowfall, and have also
been destroyed in large numbers by those
who hunt them for their hides

Get Out of Town.

Slogger Huntington Given a Chance to
Get Out of Town.
At an early hour yesterday morning
officers Stafford and Carroll arrested
young Huntington, the little slogger,
who exercises his fists on defenseless
women, instead of leather bags, in order to
keep ''in condition" for fight. He was
complained of by girl known as Chloe"
for having battered her.
This is the second time within couple
of weeks that this fellow has been arrested
on charges of this kind. He pretended to
have felt deeply injured at being roasted"
in the newspapers for his former offense,
and hoped he would not be subject to an
other scorching. He said his parents in
an Eastern city were wealthy and respect
able, and he did not want them to know
that he was giving the authorities trouble
out here. His conduct since then does not
indicate that he is very greatly worried
about his family.
Yesterday, when his case came up in the
Police Court, the woman whom he had
beaten interceded for him, and Judge Buck
ley let him off with the promise that ne
would leave the city.
