When the glass was broken, or
when the articles were taken, is
not known, and whether the glass
was broken with the intention of
robbery, or simply in street fight.
or for spite work, and the robbery
was accomplished afterward, can
not be told, though the theory is
that the glass was accidentally or
maliciously broken and that
other hands were later reached in
through the cleft and a number
of articles distracted, which con-
sisted Of eight gold dollars, two
silver hair pins, two silver
bangles and two penknives. Gold
necklaces and bracelets within
handy reach were not molested.

The residence of Mrs. f. d..
Faville, at No. 1874 Soledad street,

who rent furnished rooms at the

Jagged.
The doors and windows, open to

forded an easy ingress for the

at Wolfson's store, and the So which.
were in his pockets.

a Rocky Affair.

A big German named Hack was
before the recorder yesterday,
charged by Officer Gonzales with
being disorderly. The evidence
went to show that Hack had leased
place from Mr.. Henry Elmen-
dorf, upon which there was a pile
of rock from torn down building.
Mr.. Hack had paid one years. rent
in advance, but when Policeman
Gonzales offered Mr.. Elmendorf
$40 for the old rock, the latter
thinking Hack would be glad to
have it removed, gave Gonzales
the privilege. Hack was surprised
to, see the officer come to cart off
the rock as he wanted it to build a
grain house with and refused to
allow him to carry off any of
it. The officer hauled away several
loads however, and, as Mr.. Hack
AYERS, broke the lock of his gate to
allow the teams to pass. Mr.. FL
mendorf learning that things were
not smooth, returned the money to
Gonzales but the latter wanted the
rock and persisted in his attempts
| to gain it.
The recorder promptly dismiss
ed Mr.. Hack and he says he will
now make affidavit against the
policeman for breaking his lock.
