to pieces and the horse broke loose and

down the hill from Marengo avenue near
the Blinn. Lumber company when a
Southern Pacific train from Los Angeles

Another complaint has beep added to
the growing list against the dfsreputable
diva hxr ~ S<.o

that has been sworn to In the last few
days, charging him with selling liquor
in violation of ordinance 220 This last
complaint is sworn to by Tom Reed, the
North Marengo avenue barber. Mean
time 1t is understood that bail has been
furnished for only one of these cases and
the amount is only 5000. This is certain-
ly small amount, considering the fines
that may be imposed IL he is found
guilty on each of these charges, which
would not be surprising In the least, If
the cases against him come to trial, as
1t is a notorious fact that he has been
one of the boldest violators of the liquor
ordinance in the city.
