OVER ILLEGAL CONDUCT.

Chief Morgan received a notifca-
tion from Pennsylvania officers Satur.
day to look out for and apprehend a
negro thought to be in this region as
he was wanted in that State for lar.
ceny. The chief made inquiries and
decided that a negro living on Water
street, First ward, was the man want
ed.
He accordingly visited the house
Saturday afternoon and found Char
ley Brown and buxom negro woman
in. He ascertained that they we're
not legally entitled to cohabitate and
he arrested the man and secured the
woman's promise 10 appear, How
ever, It turned out later that Brown
was not the man he was looking for
on the old charge.
When the pair was brought before
Mayor Kinsey this morning they we're
separated, the man testifying first.
He Is a surly sortof black man and
told some rank falsehoods on the
stand. Said they were not married
but he merely had room there, He
claimed that they had two rooms and
that he slept in the kitchen on cot
while she occupieda bed in the front
room. Denied absolutely, any illegal
relations with the woman in the face

picked up regarding the pair.
Necessarily the questions had to be
little pointed and they were too
much for the rislbiIities of Pappy

GERS could hear his laugh many min,

The trial went on and the woman
was brought forth. She fessed up like

name Of Brown for the past six months,
or since she and Brown had been llv-
ing together. Added that they we're
going to be married as soon as she
could secure a divorce from a man
she has not lived with for two years.
She said that they had not been
sleeping together, but had maintained
marital relations in every sense. He
was fined $14.OO and she $3.50. They
