DAN AND PAT
The Two Fays Blfrglarize and Rob the
County Jail

The Two FayS BfrglariZe and Rob the
County Jail.
Dan Fay, the old-time thief who many
years ago stole Father Scanlan's horse
and buggy land who has lived most of the
time since either in the Sacramento or
Yolo County Jail, has again been distin-
gushing himself.
1t was only a few days ago that Fay
finished term Of service in the chain
gang. On Sunday night he celebrated
his freedom by stealing a horse and cart
which b. l.. Edwards of Sutterville had
left standing on X street, between Sec
ord and Third.
There is no telling how far Daniel
would have travelled that night had it not
been that he was severely handicapped
by an overweight of dive whisky. The
result was that he fell from the cart and
the horse ran away.
Some time during the night Dan ran
across his brother Pat, while both were
on the search for Chinese gin-mill.
After the fiery fluid had cut its way to it's
destination, Dan whispered in Pats ear
that he had scheme on foot. 1t was to
break into the County Jail, steal the har-
ness used for the chaingang team and
sell it.
The idea struck Pat as a brilliant one
The two worthless then stole Chinese
peddIers hand-cart and rolled it up
through the alley in the rear of the Jail
To open the rear door and gain access to
the outer yard was an easy job, even for
the two drunks, and they soon had the
harness in the hand-cart
At all early hour in the morning the dis
covery of the unlawful entry into the Jail
was made by the Sheritf7s officers and
Deputy Sullivan set off to look for the
missing harness, and also in the hope of
getting sight of the man who had the
etfrontery to break into the County
Jail.
The police were also notified. Deputy
Sullivan found no difficulty in trailing
the handle cart through the freshly
sprinllled streets, and after brief hunt
be and Police Officer Frank White came
upon Daniel and Patrick, who were try
ing to negotiate a trade therefor with a
Chinaman.
The two worthless were taken into Gus
tody and will be tried for a double offease
the larceny OF the hand-cart and burg
lariZing the County Jail.

LIQUOR LICENSE CASES.
Judge CravenS OverruleS the Demurrer
The Cases Continued.

The Cases Continued.
Yesterday was the time set by Police
Judge Cravens to decide the matter of the
demurrer to the complaint against H. F.,
Dillman an others for alleged violation Of
the liquor license ordinance.
The Judge said, in ruling upon the de-
murrer, that he believed the ordinance to
be sound and valid. Counsel for the de-
fense has urged in support of the de-
murrer that the ordinance is III conflict
with the city charter. This is not so, as
an examination Of the city charter will
show. 1t is further cOntended by the de-
fonse that the ordinance is not uniform,
and furthermore that lis enforcement
works undue hardships on s;lloon-keep-
ers who can scarcely keep the wolf from
the door. The real object of the ordi-
nance is not TO levy an undue tax on
liquor dealers, but to stop unlawful
traffic. 1t places restrictions on saloons
and deals with a class that must conform
with the ordinance or close their saloon
doors. AS the ordinance does not conflict
with the city charter or constitutional
provisions of this State, shall have to
Overrule the demurrer
An exception to the courts ruling was
made by w. 4. Anderson, counsel for
the defense.
IEcre were lOTly y-SeNel uelenulillS, al4tt
attorney White, who appeared for the
prosecution, desired to have the case OF
II. +. Dillman first taken up for trial.
Mr.. Dlllman was reported as too i'll to
appear. Grove l.. Johnson, of counsel
for the defense, said he was also i'll and in
need OF Il rest, and hoped the cases would
be put over.
After some further talk over the matter
it was agreed that the cases should he
continued until next Monday, when they
would be definitely set fOr trial.

a jury in the Police Court yesterday
decided that Emil Heinrich did not keep
open his saloon on L street in violation
of the new ordinance. The jurymen
were: ]. E. Kerr, Joseph G.. Genshlea,
Aaron Wilson, Fred Gieseke, c. a.
Williams, Isaiah Dunlap. C. \. Fisk, c..
j. Fredericks, P. II. Dodge and 4. G..
Johnson.
Angelo Flores, Assistant City Auditor,
C. G. Robinson, Is. II. Preston, H. F.
Dillman, Mayor w. D. Comstocl< and
/ Officer j. A. Gibson testified for the
prosecution, and after arguments by both
sides the case was submitted.
The jury returned a verdict OF not
guilty.
One of the jurors stated to a RECORD
! UNION reporter last evening that the Jury
| based its verdict on several grounds.
First, he said, there was no evidence
going to show that Heinrich was the
owner of the saloon. Secondly, it was
not shown that he knew the saloon was
open, or that he was near the place when
the officers made their appearance.
Neither was there any proof that spiritu-
Gus liquors were sold after midnight
For these reasons, he said, the Jury
concluded to return a verdict of not
guilty.
As in the case of J. n. Payne, the
validity of the ordinance cut no figure in
the case.
