Casey Thought he Was Pro teoting his
Friend-Nows Notes.
SAN BERNARDINo, June 28.-Deputy
Sheriff Keyes of the Needles arrived in
this city today with John Casey of that
place, a brakeman by trade. who had
been bound over to the superior court
on a charge of assault with deadly
weapon.
1t seems that on Monday night Casey,
while in a state OF semi-intoxicatinn
was standing near the depot at Needles,
when he noticed friend of his named
Phelps and another man whose name
could not be learned, engaged in q
scuffle on the platform. 1t appeared to
Casey that his friend was getting the
worst OF it, and 30 he picked up coup
ling-pin and hit the other fellow over
the head with it. After he had done 30
he learned too late that the scuffle was
entirely Of friendly character and that
he had made mistake. The wounded
mans injuries, which, while serious,
were not fatal, were dressed by ply
stefan and at last accounts he was rap
idly improving. Casey has ample OPP
portunity to reflect upon the impru-
dence of taking friends cause before
he fully comprehends its merits.
