SUCCESSFUL IN QUEST
FOR MAN TO FREE HIM
Handcuffed to PatroIman, Albert May
bury Finds Person Who Gave
Him VaIueIess Check

Albert Maybury, handcuffed to the
wrist of a burly policeman, Travelled
the streets of Los Angeles in the down.
town section yesterday searching for
a man whose testimony he knew would
free him from a charge of passing a
fictitious check. He was successful
and when the affair was explained to
Deputy District Attorney North the
case was dismissed
Maybury was arrested several days
ago accused of attempting to pass a
check for $34.90 on a secondhand goods
dealer. After a preliminary examina-
tion before Police Judge Frederickson
he was held to answer to the superior
court for trial. He begged the Judge
to give him permission to look for the
man who gave him the check and an
hour later, in the company of an Of
ficer, Maybury pointed out M. Echbar
as the person.
When Echbar was taken to the police
station he produced a handbook to
prove that he had sufficient money in
the bank to pay the check.

UNINTENTI0NAL FOOTPADS
PLEAD GUILTY TO CHARGE
Money from Chinese at Point
of Revolver

The fears of a Chinese that he was
about to be shot down landed r. Sapa-
ia, Jose Martinez and Frank Talarera,
three MeXicans, in Jail October 10, and
they were arraigned yesterday in Judge
Willis court on a joint charge of rob-
berry. While pleading guilty to the
charge, they did so with reminiscent
smiles, not forgetting, even in their
unenviable position, the humorous side
of their escapade.
Lue Ching is the Chinese in the mat
ter. When he met the three Mexicans
on the outskirts of Chinatown the night
of October Is, one of the trio nudged
a companion. Show him your re-
volver and see what he will do" he
suggested.
What the Chinese did was unex-
pected. He dug his hands deep into
a pocket in his loose clothing and draw
ing forth a handful of coins, first placed
them behind his ear while calling
down the wrath of COnfucius and then
handed them over to the supposed rob-
bers. He hastily departed and when
the MeXicans reached a street light
and examined their loot they found
number of Chinese coins with square
holes in the center, the value of which
they estimated at fifty cents. The
money is held by the clerk in the coun-
ty Jail.
The Mexicans asked for probation
and JtSdge Willis continued the matter
until Friday.

LETTER PREVENTS

JUDGE SCENTS C0LLAB0RA-
TlON AT END OF HEARING
Contest Between Dentist Walter h
shoaff and Wife Is Still On
in the Superior
Court

A letter written by Hubert R. Ear
hart to his wife, Ruth Nj. Earhart'
shortly before she left him to go on the
stage in 1906, prevented Earhart from
procuring a decree of divorce in the
divorce court yesterday, just at ne mo-
ment the coveted document was ABOUT
to be signed
The Farharts were married in River
side July 2, 1905, and in the following
year Mrs. Earhart left her home to go
on the stage. Earharts suit for a legal
separation was based on the ground OF
desertion, but a moment before the de-
cree was ordered an attorney represent
ing Mrs. Earhart's mother entered the
court room and presented a letter writ
ten by Earhart to his wife before sne
left him, in which he not only eX-
pressed his willingness that she should
so, but advising her to do so because
he could not support her. Judge James
Immediately denied the decree.
Mrs Earhart is said to be playing IN
St Paul for the Sullivan and Considlne
circuit.
The contested suit of Nellie Shoaff
against her husband, Walter r. Shoatt
a dentist with offices in the wilcox
building, was begun in the divorce court
Yesterday and is still on trial. Mrs
Shoaff alleges numerous acts of cruelty.
They were married in Honolulu in july
1900 and came to Los Angeles TWO
years later. The subject of divorce was
discussed so frequently in their home
said Mrs. Shoaff, that their little girl
a child of Z years, found her greatest
pleasure in playing divorce court with
her playmates. Among other things to
which Mrs. Shoaff objected was con-
tinued correspondence after her mar
riage between her husband and his for
mer wife, for whom he still professed
an affection.
The court denied a decree to either
side in the case of Arthur w. Berton
against Mary c. BertOn. DEGREES grant
ed were Carrie Lozier from Harry Lo-
zier Pauline w. Kent from Frank w.
Kent, Lottie P Thomas from Truman
