SEARCHING FOR
E. ~. LOST WATCH
A MAN WAS ARRESTED AND
GIVEN A HEARING THIS NORM
ING-Is NOW IN JAIL.

AS mentioned in these Columns
yesterday, Charles Berns lost a val
liable watch at the Watson Hotel
yesterday morning. 1t was lot re-
tuned and suspicion pointed to a man
who gave his name as c.. B. jenkins.
He and his Wife room at a house on
Jackson street.. a care warrant
was issued but Deputy Sheriff Wat
son searched the house in vain. The
man was then arrested and put in
Jail. His trial was set for this morn
ing at nine o'clock.
Attorney E. F. Morgan represented
the defendant before Justice Amo
this morning. The evidence was alto
gether circumstantial but the jus
tic saw fit to hold jenkins under $500
bond 10 await the action Of the grand
jury. He said that he could not give
bond and was returned to jail.
Whether the man is guilty or not
we cannot say, but there is something
suspicious about the actions of him
and his friends. 1t is claimed that he
is one OF a gang OF gamblers which
came here some weeks ago. Jenkins
wife was the only woman at the trial
and she put in the time weeping.
She almost broke down when he was
told to so back to Jail n hung on
his shoulder for several minutes.
Some are of the opinion thai she is
not his wife but that cannot be found
out. Perhaps the people concerned
n respectable or they may be a gang
of crooks but if they are the latter,
they know that it is for their own
good to keep still and no remarks are
dropped whereby anything concern
ing them can be learned.
