HE DID THEM UP.
Two Cinnamon Tackle Detective
Hoy and Get Thrashed.

Detective John Hoy had lively fight
yesterday. Chang Wah and Wing
Quong, two Christianized Cinnamon
who run a combination shirt-polishing
foundry and hop joint at 1T North Sec
ond street, started in to do the detective
up, but they reckoned without their
host, and after receiving sound thrash
ing were landed in the lookup. Wah
was charged with disorderly conduct
and was held in 500 bail, and Quong
had the charge of assaulting with dan
gerOus weapon against him, and $500 in
hard cash had to be deposited before he
could return to his pipe. The officer
went to the place yesterday to look for
a man who has recently been discharged
from Saltwater. Not finding him and
smelling the fumes of opium, he asked
the Cinnamon for pipe, say
ing he would pay for it. They
pretended not to understand and
told the officer to go out. AS he
didn't move quite fast enough, one OF
them grabbed a kettle OF hot water and
threw it at him, but it missed its mark
and the detective stepped out the door.
Wah grabbed flat-iron and Quong a
club covered with sheet iron. Both
lOllOWCu llOy w paw
ment. The man with the club struck
him across the wrist, cutting it badly.
Then Hoy went for the Chinaman, and
when another policeman arrived the
heather looked as if he had been sent
through threShing machine.
Jesse Weathers, the proprietor of the
"crap Joint; at 243 Third avenue south,
was arraigned yesterday on the charge
of keeping gambling house. He
pleaded guilty and Judge Emery fined
him S1O0, and notified him that repiti-
ton of the offense would mean ninety
days in the workhOuse withOutany fine.
Charles A. Carlson was charged by
Ellen A. Udeen with leading her astray
under the promise Of marriage. Charles
had long talk with Ellen, after which
he waived an examination and was held
in $500 bail for trial in the district court.
As he could not furnish the required
amount he was committed to the county
jail.
The Zion church squabble will now be
sertled in court. After the row on We'd
nesday night Rev. Frederick Lomack
threatened to have L.. G. Gre CORY and
Deacon r. V. Burleigh arrested for
threatening his life. Yesterday the
deacon turned the tables OH the pastor
the charge of disturbing a religious
meeting. He pleaded not guilty and
deposited S25 for his appearance to-day.
Olaf &. Olson, an incorrigible small
boy, was sent to the reform school at
the request of his mother.
The entire afternoon session OF the
municipal court was taken up in trying
the charges which Sergeant Kirkham
makes against his prisoners. Kitty
Tripler, of 20 South First street, was
charged with keeping a house OF ILL
fame, and her husband, Charles Tripler,
alias Charles Fredericks, was charged
with being found In the place. After
considerable disgusting testimony had
been given by the spoilers" sent there
by the police both were adjudged guilty.
The woman was given the choice of a
fine of 500 or ninety days in the work
house, and Frederick was sent to the
workhouse for thirty days.
Perhaps no case OF its kind ever at
tracted more attention than the charge
made by the raid sergeant against the
Poets, who live at PIG and 21S Third ave-
nue. south. Peet is we'll known in busi-
ness circles, and number of substantial
! business men were on hand ready to
testify to his character and gen.
eral reputation. Addie Peet, his wife,
who is alleged to have kept an
designation house, was apparently sur
prised at the testimony which the police
produced against her, and after the
court adjourned she characterized the
| testimony as absolutely false. The first
| witness against her was Jennie Wal
| lace, street walker and habitue OF the
| Jumbo, who swore she had at various
| times within the past three weeks
| rented rooms from Mrs. Peet for i'm
moral purposes. Another woman ant
| two policemen testified they had dont
| the same. The case was continued un
til to-day.
