LONG BEACH, Jan. 23.-George and
Robert Mead were arraigned before
Justice of the Peace Brayton this aft
ernoon on charges of having stolen
from a Mrs. Cotton of this city a num-
Der of articles valued at $12. The two
young men pleaded not guilty. The
judge set their trials for February 2
and fixed the bail in each instance at
$500. The two men are brothers and
the elder of the two is a drug user, it
is alleged. Both denied positively that
they had stolen anything from Mrs.
Cotton, though George Mead admitted
that he borrowed a gasoline stove from
the woman, but would return it if given
an opportunity. The complaints were
filed several days ago, but the MeadS
were not located until this morning,
when Officer Cason found them in
San Pedro.
