MATTE EVANS GUILTY.
Fined $l2o for Keeping a Dis
orderly House.

All the forenoon of the Hastings
Court yesterday was occupied in trying
the case OF tho commonwealth VS..
Matte Evans for keeping a house OF i'll
fame. Judge Williams appeared for tho
defense. A number of witnesses testi-
fled as to the general reputation of tho
house, all agreeing that it was bad
Ofhoers Schanks and Griffin testified
that they had raided the house several
times and found it to be of bad charac-
tor. Several colored witnesses living
in the neighborhood were examined.
Among them was Rev. w. r. Jones, who
said tho place was q nuisance and had
been disturbing the quiet of the neigh
borhood for years and those living in
that section had applied to Mayor
Carr before his death and recently to
his honor, Mayor Evans, to suppress the
disturbances so frequent in this house.
1t was contended by counsel that Matte
Evans was not proprietor of the house,
but Howard McGee,s who was also in
cluded in the warrant, but has left town.
This could not be satisfactorily estab-
lished and the jury found Matte Evans
guilty and gave her one days imprison
ment and S12O.
In the case of w. N. Sale, charged
with receiving stolen goods, the jury re-
turned verdict of not guilty. The
case of Luther Lester, charged with
keeping nuisance, was continued.
