Arizona republican., 1900-12-18

tracted his attention in California. He was cross questioned closely, his case set for trial today and was released on
 his own recognizance. He asked the officer when he could get the money taken from him at the time of his ar rest. He was told that he could get it after the trial, the inference being that if it was given to him at once there would be no trial. But it was arranged to give him enough to live on if he would wait outside on a bench till court adjourned.
 He went out and about that time the telephone rang from the Yellowstone. Officer Joe Bush went across the street and brought back his namesake, a little the worse for liquor and placed a charge of vagrancy against him. The routine of the docket was broken long enough to give the said Joe Bush, wno recited a beautiful sketch of his hte and career, a thirty-day fine. He bowed pleasantly and thanked the court as though he was pleased to think the sentence was not for life.
 By this time Watchman Doheney, who sat gazing out of the window spied the Cunningham youth in close conversation with d ivell-dressad young man by the name of Gray, who seemed to be his pal. Messrs. Doheney and Bush retired and brought them both into court.
 Cunningham admitted having asked Gray to get a pack of cards for :le prisoners in the jail and Gray admit ted getting them, though denied any ,;,,t Nn-ift rIA hnN Gray was fined $5 and Cunningham, $1O. The latter to be in addition 70 any fine he may receive at his trial for vagrancy today.
 There has been a great deal of trOu- ble of late by whisky, cards and other things being passed into the jail and the officers are determined to break up the practice, even if punishment un- usually severe is necessary.
 Under the same head came the case of Ed Murray. He had been drunk and while in that condition sought to quench the thirst of the ,ity prisoners through a window. The ire boys saw him and jailed lip. He pleaded guilty, having TO remembrance of he circUlh- stance and as he had kept faith on previous occasion, he was fined $5 and to go on his own recognizance, to complete a ell-digging contract he is interested in.
 Walter Connors is a fifteen-year-o;d boy who was blown in on a carnival breeze and who spent his leisure time reading a dime novel in a rear room of the Palace saloon. He was arrested for being in a saloon. His straight story, l.; lii foi awaited him at Coffee AIS got him a light fine, with suspension of sentence during good behavior.
 James Mcclure, who was released from the city jail Saturday evening, broke in again before midnight along with Dan Brown. Both were charged with begging and failing to receive what they wanted, with abusing those from whom they sought aims. Me Cure pleaded not guilty and made strong talk which secured him thirty day job. Brown pleaded guilty, say ing he was so drunk that his memory of Saturday night was a blank. He was given twenty days.
 4 young man whose name is with held by reason of his connection with a good family, resident here, was ac- cused of being drunk and disorderly. He tried to fight his case and had witness present. but the testimony did not cover the ground sufficiently to do the business and he was sent below $60 worth.
 The last case, or rather one that had been touched on several times during
 he afternoon, was that of a colored man namsd Shelby. He was charged with vagrancy and sleeping in saloons, but claimed he could clear himself if given an opportunity to secure wit nesses, so his case was continued till today.
