Proprietor of the City Shoe Store Give,


Proprietor of the City Shoe Store Given
Scare
The employees in the City Shoe Store, at
24O South Main street, played a practical
joke on the proprietor Tuesday evening
while he was absent attending the theater.
Next TO the store a new building is being
erected, the scaffolding of which starts
close to the shoe store, SO that one might
easily climb to the roof and enter through
the open skylight. Taking advantage of
this situation the boys opened one OF the
apertures in the roof and then scattered
shoes and boxes from their places on the
shelves in disordered fashion about the
room. The cash drawer they pulled out as
though it had been robbed, and when ev-
erything had been arranged in suspicious
confusion they concealed themselves out-
side to await results.
About l O'Clock the proprietor returned.
He was startled by the sight which met his
gaze, and rushed at once to give the alarm
to the police. In his excitement he told
thrilling story to the officer, and a detec-
tive was dispatched post haste to investi-
gate the matter. Returning, they found the
clerks and workmen in possession of the
fort. They soon explained the situation,
and when it dawned upon the proprietor
that he had been made the butt of prac.
tical joke he joined in the laugh and all
hands went out around the corner.

A BAD MAN

Brown Alias Adams Crooked Schemes in This
City and San Francisco
II. d. Brown, the man who was arrested
several days ago for appropriating his en-
ployer's diamond ring. while he affected
to be an innocent man at the time of his
arrest and claimed to have taken the ring
as joke, is nevertheless a man with a
reputation for crooked ways.
Besides the fraudulent purchase of a
piano in San Francisco, an account of
which has already been published, Brown,
1t is claimed, worked similar scheme in
this city. He purchased piano Oh the in
stallment plan from Gardner & Zellner,
for which he was to have paid $15 down
and the balance at stated intervals. He
paid $S in cash and gave his note for 81.
He then took the piano and pawned it to
Lee Bros. for $40, representing to them
that he bought the instrument in San Fran
cisco. This negotiation was made under
the name Of II. H. Brown. At other times
he has signed himself II. II. l.. Brown.
His true name is John Adams. His wife
resides in San Francisco and he corre-
spends with her by sending his letters to a
man named Coleman.
Additional charges have been preferred
against Adams and when he has been tried
for petty larceny he will have to answer
for embezzement and grand larceny.

worst, while the old man went to Los
Angeles to get permission from the priest
to occupy an old dilapida ed shed con-

His tools, fuel, baskets and other pos
sessions were pitered, and it being hought
by many that the old man must have
money buried under his house, as he had
Tor many years done the blacksmith work
for that part CT the country, diligent search
was made for that. The old wife died of
pneumonia, brought on by the exposure,

that he ever promised De Cells that the n
dians would not be disturbed; that Widney
bought land of De Cells, but bought of
MIN; that the cjectment was cruel, and
that he (Maclay) bad ordered the sheriff to
provide for the Indians when he took them

for moneys buried. In fact, Maclay's afli-
davit is a general denial. The parties sign.

In Addition to This He Gets Severe Lee.
ture-Coiver Requests That the
Fine Be Remhtted

Judge N. I. Owens yesterday at ! 80 p.
m. called the case of Police Detective j..
G. Goodman, who had been found guilty of
committing battery upon Richard }. Col
YER, reporter of the Evening Record.
Goodman was not on hand. The judge
asked if the clerk had notified. Goodman
to be present. He answered that he had
left word at the police office for him to ap-
pear. Judge Owens then directed that the
clerk apain go to the police station and
il Goodman was not ahere that he issue a
warrant for his arrest
Clerk Kinsey followed the instructions
and in a few minutes appeared with Good
man. The court asked the detective if he
was ready for sentence and he replied that
he was.
At this juncture Colver arose and stated
to the court that he had learned that Good
man was man of large family and had
only moderate income. He asked that
the court be as lenient as he consistently
could in passing sentence.
Judge Owens said that from the evidence
he was fully convinced that the detective
was guilty of battery. He had insulted
Colver and Colver had resented it. He
thought that both parties had acted hastily,
but the fact remained that Colver had re-
ceived blow at Goodman's hands, al
though not a serious one. The court then
imposed fine of 50. Colver asked tha
the sentence be remitIed. but Judge Overs
said that he could not do that, and SO the
So fine stood and was paid.
/ The battery case in the police court in no
way affects the question before the police
commission called up by Colver's CON-
munication as to the illegal, unlawful and
unconstitutional imprisonment of people
Nd do .%.,ts
acts in this connection seem to have the
approval of his superior officer, John NJ.
Glass, chief of police. The commission
will still be called upon to decide whether
or not Chief Glass and Detective Goodman
have it in their power to set aside the pro-
visions of the federal and state t,onstitu-
tons regarding the rights and liberties of
citizens.
