WATSON RELEASED.
Accused Druggist Admitted TO Bail
by Judge Tillinghast.
The Amount F.x:d al $500 - Lo1js r.
Bill B comes BJndSman.

Frank Watson, the Narragansett Pier drug
gist, who was adiudged by Judge Lewis of
the district court of the Second judicial dis
trict yesterday probably guilty OF breaking
and entering the Continental Hotel and an
attempt at arson on April 2S last. was brought
to this city this noon. His counsel, A. B.
Crafts and Frank Olney, yesterday obtained
a writ of habess corpus in order that Watson
might be brought here so that bail could be
given.
Judge Tillinghast heard the application.
Louis H. Bell, who resides at Wakefield and
who is worth $4,000 over all membranes,
was offered as surety. After few questions
by Assistant Attorney-Generai II. J. Dubois,
the court pronounced Mr.. Bell satisfactory.
The question of the amount Of bail was
next considered. Attorney Crafts said II was
the general opinion that the evidence against
his client was very flimsy. Judge Tillinghast
said Watson had been adjudged probably
guilty and the testimony was not under con.
sideration.
The assistant attorney general urged that
the amount of bail be fixed at higher sum
than ii was when Watson was held TO appear
for trial before the district court
- Attorney Crafts, IN behalf OF Watson,
pleaded that the bail be not fixed at too high
a figure, as Watson had no real estate.
Judge Tillinghast said IL was customary TO
increase the bail after the district court had
bound the defendant over. His honor said
that he would fix bail AT $500. Tho recog.
instances of Watson and Bell were then taken
The case will come before the grand jury of
Washington county, which will be empanelled
on the second Monday of June.

best Of the other. i thought Ia watch
the game awhile and i sat down behind
Jim Weeks, "A big stock dealer who lived

The cards were dealt around half dozen
times and nobody got hand That was
worth betting much on.
FINALLY Weeks called Tor now pack OF
cards They were brought and carefully
shuffled. The cards were dealt ana every
body bet dollar. A fellow named
haines was dealing, and when he asked
how many cards were wanted every one OF
the players stood pat and we all noticed
that he laid the pack down without taking
cards himself Weeks bet $40, and the
fellow next Co him raised him $40. Every
body stayed and when the bet got back
TO Weeks he raised IL $50; but Haines
wasn't feazed by that and he promptly
raised Weeks $50. After some hesitation
the other two players doppod out and the
fight was between Weeks and Haincs, who
raised back and forth until there was
about $l2OO in the pot Finally Halncs
got skittish and called Weeks.
I've got club flush-deuoe, tray,
four, five, and six, he said, spreading
out his cards.
{" I've got heart flush with the same
cards said Haines,
" We'll, I'll be whaled, said one Of the
fellows who had Criwn out, III L didn
have the same KIND Of diamond flush.
q" Yes, and laid down spade flush 10
match IL, said the other fellow.
"Haines and Weeks divided the pot,

barroom and ordered cocktails. Four pat
hands were dealt, and one was rs good as

The distribution Of relief Is almost in
