NEATLY NAILED.
Arrest Here of an Alleged Confidence
Operator.

Mrs Emma Fite of San Francisco
visited the police station yesterday
morning and swore to a complaint
charging Harry Vernon, also of San
Francisco, with the crime of petit lar
ceny.
According to her story, Vernon bor-
rowed $15 from her to redeem dia-
mond ring and stud which he had de-
posted in a pawnshop. He proposed
giving her the jewelry to hold as secur-
ity for the loan, and upon leaving turn
ed the key of his room over to her, tell
ing her to hold his trunk until he re-
turned from his ''uncle'S.''
1t was the old story. He never came
back" she said, and when she en-
tered his room it was found that Yer
mons trunk had been removed prior to
the transaction. Mrs. Fite thereupon
began an investigation which resulted
in finding a chum of Vernon's, who had
asked him to address him at 'the gem
eral delivery office at Sacramento.
Then the lady laid her case before the
San Francisco police and swOre out a
warrant for Vernon's arrest, provided
the Sacramento matter proved a ca
nard, and at once started for this city,
where she arrived yesterday morning.
She told her tale of woe to Police
Sergeant McManus, who directed her to
the Postoffice and advised her to watch
for her man during the hour the office
was open. On her way Mrs. Fite found
officer Fisher, who accompanied her.
She had watched the line at the deliv-
cry window but few minutes when
vernon put in an appearance, was
pointed out by her, promptly nabbed by
Fisher and safely landed in jail
The police of San Francisco were no.
titled of the arrest, and an officer dis
patched for Sacramento on the next
train, and at a late hour yesterday
Harry Vernon was taken back to the
scene of his operations.

INSULTING WOMEN.
A Low-Lived Tough Runs Up Against
the Wrong Men.

Early Saturday evening considerable
excitement was occasioned at the cor
ner of Third and n streets by a burly
ruffian soliciting aims from women who
chanced to pass along. His tactics were
to throw one arm about woman in
familiar way, and ask her for assistance
TO get a supper. This he did several
times
The big fellow succeeded in badly
frightening several women before the
citizens of the neighborhood became
aware of the situation. when steps were
taken to checkmate him. The trouble
began when Peter II. Campbell, clerk
in McEwen's grocery store, acc0sted the
hobo. asking him what he meant by
iiis actions.
The man replied that he was attend
ing to his own business, and Campbell
informed him that if he persisted in his
actions he would see that he was landed
in Jail.
The insulter of women turned out TO
be bad man, for he replied by striking
Campbell a hard blow in the face, after
which the latter got in and mixed
things, finally landing on top of his as
sailant The bystanders, however
dragged Mr. CamDDell away, III OIueI u
give the stranger a chance to explain,
hut instead of doing so he made dash
al the nearest citizen, and was promptly
knocked down.
He was not yet satisfied, it seemed,
for on regaining his feet he chose a new
target, and was once more dropped in
his tracks.
About this time a hack came rattling
down the street. and the cry arose that
the patrol wagon was coming. Then the
big stranger picked himself up. pulled
off his coat, and made fast time in get
ting out of the neignborhood.
From the way the hobo carried him
Self. ii was thought that he was bro
ken-down prize-fighter Be that as il
may, he run afoul of the wrong men at
Third and y streets. and If he shows up
within the next three days will be easily
identified, as 1t is certain that he car
ries two very black eyes and a swollen
Troboscis. He wore a hght-colored
suit of clothes, and d white slouch hat
and was we'll made and muscular
though somewhat slender.
