of the old conviction in 1887, which
had been reoited in the complaint. He
! admitted that he had been found
Guilty of theft in 1887, but he denied
having actually been guilty, and

at first pleaded not guilty, but later
retracted it and was sent to the county
Jail for sixty days. AS to the present

took the third.
