A BRACE OF HARD CHARACTERS

thieves were arrested Friday evening

BELLICOSE BUSTER
A Painters Desperate Fight With
Several Policemen

John Buster, painter, was arrested
at l o'clock this morning, after desper-
ate fight with several policemen, and
was finally landed in the city Jail on a
charge of disturbing the peace.
The trouble occurred at the corner of
First and Main streets. A man, whose
name is not known, approached Police
man Jim McGraw and pointed to two
men who were walking down the street.
They were conducting third man,
much under the influence of liquor, be-
tween them, and the officer was asked
to get the latter away from the others,
as he had considerable money and was
liable to get robbed. McGraw stepped
up to the men and spoke to them, where
upon the larger one, who stands above
six feet and whose name proved to be
John Buster, turned around and dealt
the policeman blow between the eyes
which set him staggering.
A rough -and-tumble fight ensued, in
which the officer refrained from using
his club. He blew his whistle and Police
man Ritch hurried to his assistance. The
two officers had a desperate encounter
with the big ruffian, but finally succeed
ed in throwing him to the ground and
placing the handouts upon his wrists.
Buster was sent to the police station in
the patrol wagon and tried to fight all
the way, handcuffed as he was. At the
clerks desk the fellow blasphemed, us
ing every expletive in his vocabulary,
until he was finally showed into cell.

BURGLAR FOUND in JAIL
ALEXANDRA ADAME ROBBED L..
p. CRANES RESIDENCE
Disposcd Of His Plunder and Then
Shot Henry Pfirrmann, All in
the Same Evening

A case of burglary has been worked
up against Alexandra Adame, now con-
fined in the city jail on charge of as
sault' to kill. A week ago Saturday
night Adame was caught in the act of
trolling" a drunken man in the 900"
saloon at the corner of First and Los
Angeles streets by the proprietor, Henry
Pfirrmann, who called for the police
and was shot in the jaw by the Mexican
in an attempt to kill him. When Adame
was searched at the police station a.
bottle of knockout drops" was found
in his pocket.
The same afternoon the residence of
L. r. Crane at 234 San Pedro street was
entered and jewelry and clothing val
ued at $3.50 stolen. The detectives
found some of this material, including
a valuable fur coat. in secondhand
store. From the description which they
were able to get of the fellow who left
the stuff they were led to believe that
Adame was the thief. A revolver was
one of the articles stolen from the
Crane residence, and the description of
the weapon fitted exactly the one with
which Adame shot Pfirrmann. When
the weapon was shown to Mr.. Crane he
Immediately identified it as his own.
This completed the chain of evidence
which so strongly connected Adame
with the Crane burglary
Adame came here from Mexico and
is believed to be desperate outlaw. At
ter ,robbing the Crane residence he dis
posed of part of his plunder and then
started out to do another job, but was
prevented by the timely interference
Of Piirrmann.
