PASADENA, Aug. al. N. Heliotis
Of 121 West First street, Los Angeles,
and q. L. Legakes of Pasadena,
Greeks, were arrested this evening.
Heliotis is charged with resisting an
officer and a charge of shooting quail
out of season Is to be preferred against
both. Deputy Sheriff Sam Wallis made
the complaint and warrants were is
sued tonight by Justice Congdon.
The arrest of the Greeks was
brought about through DR.. Deming,
who went to the rifle range about A
o'clock this afternoon for pistol prac-
tice. When he arrived there he found
two men hunting with a shotgun on
the west side of the arroyo. He con-
cluded they were shooting quail, as
the birds were flying about as though
they were startled. Dr. Deming hur-
and notified Mr.. Wallis, who is the
game warden for Pasadena, and when
they approached the hunters both OBJ
jected to being placed under arrest.
The officer went into their pockets,
however, and found dead bird Sc
creted on Legakes.
The searching so angered the Greeks
that they showed fight, and Heliotis,
who is of powerful build, struck
Wallis across the left arm with the
butt of the shotgun, causing a frac-
ture of the bones After a few hasty
before they noticed the approach of
two officers from the police station,
whom Chief Pinkham dispatch to
the assistance of Wallis. The Greeks
claim they did not know it was unlaw
full to shoot quail Wallis will receive
a reward of $25 from the Game Pro-
tective society for making the arrest.
Former City Electrician Held
A. T. Dickey, charged with the mis-
appropriation of city funds, must go
to trial in the superior court. This is
the judgment of Justice Congdon, be-
fore whom the complaint was made
and before whom the preliminary ex-
animation was commenced last Mon
day and concluded today. Dickey was
city electrician during the administra-
tion Of Mayor vedder, and recently al
legged irregularities in the accounts of
Dickey caused Mayor Waterhouse to
prosecute the young man.
The Dickey case occupied an allday
session of Justice Congdon's court and
the principals were Mayor Waterhouse,
prosecuting witness, and Attorney j. G.
Rossiter, counsel for the defense. The
latter interrogated the mayor as to his
motives for prosecuting Dickey and in
timated to the court by his cross ex-
animation that none other than poll
tics was the real cause of the execu-
tive's interest in bringing Dickey into
court A number of other witnesses
were examined, and at the conclusion
of the testimony brief arguments were
made by the attorneys. Judge Cong
don announced that the case was one
for the superior court to decide and
he bound the prisoner over, fixing the
amount of bail at $780, 1t is thought
that Dickey will be able to furnish
bond. During the progress of the ex-
animation this afternoon Mrs. Dickey
tainted and was carried into an ad-
joining room where she quickly re-
covered. The congested condition of
the court room and the excitement at
tending the trial caused her to give
way.
