TWO MAYNARD GIRLS.
Poverty Drives Them to Lead a
Life of Shame.

Jennie Johnson and Little At
kinson are the names of two
young white girls, aged about II
years, who for the past year have
been residing together on Concho
street, and who are known as
"chile queens" About two weeks
ago they gave up the chile bust
ness and have been since running
the streets at night, and be-
having in most disgrace
full manner. Last night they
went out to San Pedro springs and
were seen drinking beer, in COM
pany with two negroes. Later,
they were followed by an officer.
who told some startling stories
about the actions of these two
children, apparently. AS their con-
duct could not be put up with any
longer, the police patrol wagon was
summoned, and soon the girls were
taken to prison on the charge Of
being Migrants, to-wit, disreputa-
BILE characters. They were ar
raigned before the acting recorder
this morning for trial. The john
son girl seemed to realize what
she had done, and began to cry,
but Lettie Atkinson, the younger
of the two in years and the older
in vice, seemed to disregard the
advise of the court, and laughed
heartily when the recorder fined
them each 81.
Both of these girls are fatherless
and motherless, and were thrown
out into the world to care for them
selves, when but little children.
They have not had the advantages
of schools, society, etc., and are in
consequence, very ignorant. The
depraved condition in which they
are now in arouses the sympathy
of all and brings up again the mat
ter of providing home for young
women, who are unfortunate in
life.

A FREE-FOR-ALL
Combat at a Mexican Chile Joint,
All Over a Man.

Yesterday evening a bloody fight
occurred in a restaurant kept by
an old Mexican woman near the
corner of Laredo and DolOrosa
streets, in which Antonio Flores,
Theo. Luvino, Manuel LedrOn, Je-
susa Reyes, Barbosa Canno, Severe
Cam and f. MarinO were impli-
Gated. 1t seems that Marino and
Barbosa Canno were eating supper
at the place and they began to fight
over man whom they both loved.
Barbosa struck Marino on the
head with a glass, and as the lat
ter was about to return the COM
pliment the others implicated,
rushed to the assistance of Bar
bosa, and held the other woman
which Barbosa threw cups and
glasses at her. The cases of all con-
cerned were tried before Recorder
Shardien this morning, and the
evidence was so complicated that
it was almost impossible to ascer-
tain who the guilty person was.
The recorder disposed of the cases
as follows: Barbosa, SIS; Antonio
Flores, dismissed; Jesusa Reyes,
$40; Manuel Ledron, $40; Theo.
Luvina, dismissed; Severe Cam,
dismissed; F. Marino, dismissed.
