sumed that she was getting along

of her death came as a great shock

Opium Dealer
Goes Free
Attorney gets Lum Sing off
on Technically.

Monday was set as the day on
which Lum Sing was to be tried on
a charge selling opium without the
formally of a physicians prescription.
The case was not an unusual one
III any way except as to the number
of tins of opium which in this case
numbered ninety and represented
about seven hundred dollars in
value.
The complaint charged the defen-
dant with selling opium to All Wa
while the complaining witness testi-
fled his name was All Wal.
Attorney J. L. Coke represented
the defendent and of course took
advantage of the error and succeed
ed in getting the defendant dis
charged and permission to remove
the opium.
AS the authorities were particul-
arly anxious to hold the opium or
at least know where it was taken
the Sheriff Saffery went out to the
hack where the opium was placed.
Attorney Coke invited the Sheriff
to take a ride with him and the
two and the opium were start
ed to the residence of the owner
of the opium. On reaching the
place the hack was stopped and
the Sheriff, apparently thinking
that the opium was to be delivered
there got out and went into the
house. As they did this the hack
was driven around the block while
a frantic police officer ran with all
his might after the hack but as he
is an unusually fat man and never
noted for sprinting he soon fell by
the wayside exhausted by his un-
usual efforts.
1t is said that the opium was not
taken out of the hack during the
trip but returned to Market street
and on the return of the hack two
police officers asked where the opium
was. Mr.. Coke replied in these boxes
pointing to the boxes in the hack.
The officers did not believe he meant
what he said and went away look
ing for the opium. The opium was
taken out right under the noses of
the police and much of it is now
probably gone up in smoke.
The Chinaman is again under
arrest and his trial will come up
next week but it is dollars to dough
nuts that the opium will never be
found.
