GEORGE DAVIS CONVICTED OF
STEALING TOOLS.
Case Heard Before Judge Norre1
Yesterday and Verdict Returned
By a Jury Last Night.

The jury sitting upon the case OF
the state VS.. George Davis, CHARGED
with burglary. after being out for two
hours last night, returned into Judge

The taking of the testimony in the
case occupied practically al the time
in criminal court yesterday. Attorney

and the defendant was represented by
S. P Armstrong and J. NJ. Hamilton.
The information against Davis Was Of

Ond charging HOUSEKEEPING. Davis
was committed for trial from Justice
Pardee's court last August for entering
the Emerson school building and carry
ing away some carpenters tools, the
property Of L. o. Gordy.
GOrdy was the first witness examined
for the prosecution. He stated that ne
was working on the Emerson school
annex last August. On the Friday pre-
ceding Volunteer day, all hands knock
ed of work and did not resume until
the following Monday, when witness
missed his tools He said he reported
his loss to the sheriff, and Deputy
D0Wse eventually recovered the miss
ing articles from Davis room at Mrs.
Miuers. 651 Seventh street,
Mrs. r. Miller testified that Davis
told her he took the tools and brought
them TO his room. Witness said that
when Davis heard that the officers
were looking for him that he never
came back.
Other witnesses, including sam
Dowse, Nora Sparks, John 3. Moreton
and Andrew B0den, testified the et-
feet that as Davis was apE roachlng
Mrs. Miller's house N a buggy, ne earn
ed that Deputy DOwse Was searching
the premises; accordingly, he precipi-
lately left the vehicle and ran across
lots and over fences to be ultimately
arrested in Ogden Witnesses also tes-
titled that Davis was working on the
school building, and had been seen eX-
aiming the stolen tools.
For the defense Davis endeavored to
convince the jury that Gordy had
placed his tools in his (defendants)
tool chest for safe keeping, and that
he carried the box away IN mt OF ap-
straction.

Guide Posts Of the Blind.

There is a blind man living in the
heart Of the old quarter who walks
nearly every day to a little restaurant
near Canal street, says the New Orleans
Times Democrat. The distance each
way is from sixteen 10 twenty blocks,
according to his route, and to see him
sauntering careIessIy along one would
never suspect his infirmity.
Talking yesterday with an inquisi-
tive reporter he declared that he saw
with his nose and feet, and this was the
way he explained it. when a man has
his sight" he said. the smells Of the
street are all mixed up, but when he's
blind he learns to separate them The
smells Of the shops are almOst as plain
TO me now as the signs used to be over
the doors. Some Of them you would
hardly suppose to exist. Take g. dry
goods store, for instance, it smells OF
cloth, and has a very peculiar OdOr.
Iron and tin have smells Of their own.
and 1 can tell a hardware store immedi-
ately. I pass two book stalls nearly
every day, and I scent them yards of
by the old books. Then there are a
great many Undesirable Odors by
which I know this place and that. OF
course, my feet are my principal guide,
and I've been over the same ground so
often that / have learned every me
quality by neafI. out 1 couldn't get
along without either nose or feet alone.
They work together. and where one
fails the other helps out. Between
them they make very good eyes. The
secret Of my stepping out IS this I've
learned how to stop. People who can
see huFl themselves forward like loco
motives. That's why the shock is al
ways 50 Unexpectedly violent when you

uclpaJed.
Yesterday passed without any new
cases Of smallpox developing. How
ever. two reports came to the health
department Of suspected cases, but
upon investigation no symptoms were
found sufficient TO warrant the estab-
lishment of quarantine regulations.
The physicians Of this city had busy
day yesterday. Their offices were
crowded the greater part Of the day by
people desiring to be vaccinated. A
majority were small children, brought
in by their parents From this it
would appear that the people are de-
termined to do their full share to choke
out the smallpox. The vaccination fee
ranges from 81 to So.
President Joseph T. Kingsbury Of the
University Of Utah announces that
this institution Viii not open until
Monday. Jan. IS, on adv &C Of the state

J. L. Perkes Charges Him With
Malpractice.
CASE OF A BROKEN ARM
PHYSICIAN ENTERS VIGOROUS
DENIAL.
Says That the Plaintiff Is Angry Be-
cause He Had to Bring Suit for
the Amount of His Bill for At
tending the Fraeture-Amount
Claimed Is 500.

DR.. Willard Y. Croxau is the defend
ant in a suit for damages for alleged
malpractice fled in Justice Pardee's
court yesterday afternoon. J. L. Perkes
has commenced an action against the
physician TO recover $100 damages.
be declares in his complaint that on
July Z, 1898, his 1S-months-old child fell
and broke its arm and that DR.. CTox-
all was called in TO set it. The COM
plant proceeds to say that represent
ing himself as a surgeon he fixed the
arm, but did his work so negligently
and 50 unskilfuly that it became crook
ed and infamed. 1t was necessary to
call in other physicians 20 undo DR..
Croxalls work and this, it is claimed,
caused an additional and wholly IN
necessary expense. Mr.. Perkes wants
500 to cover this additional cost.
DR.. Croxall's Denial.
Dr. Croxau has another story to tell.
He makes very vigorous denial of the
charges made by Mr.. PeTkes
This suit is simply brought to in
Jure me" said he last night. 1t is
done in retaliation. Er. PeTkes refused
to pay me $50 for my services, which
by the way, is the minimum fee for
such a case, and last September
brought suit against him. Judgment
was obtained by default for the
amount. Recently I have placed the
matter in the hands Of a collector and
Mr.. Perkes and his wife must appear
for examination before Justice AfcNas-
ter on Monday. That is what now
troubles him.
When I set the arm Mrs. Perkes be-
coming excited called in another physi-
cian, who, after an examination, said
TO me that the arm was in a good con-
dition and he refused to take the case.
He told Mrs. PeTkes that il was foolish
to think Of changing physicians.
