cases yesterday. Ah Wing pleaded not
guilty to the charge of battering another
Chinaman. His examination was con-
further testimony.
A. Arguello, arrested for cruelty beat
ing a Slavonian named Rodovan, ap-
peared in court, but as the complaining
witness was too weak to come into court,
the case was continued until April 18th.
Frank Campbell, arrested for battery
on the complaint of Mrs. Elizabeth Rig

was one of the pettiest neighborhood
quarrels ever brought into court. The
trouble started over Campbell pulling

that that was about all there was in the
case.
w. E. Auble, arrested for malicious
mischief, was also adjudged not guilty.
This was clearly another case where it
would have saved time and expense by
not issuing a complaint.
