AMATEUR LAWYER
FAILS IN APPEAL
Must Pay Sl0O Fine for Selling
Preparation Containing Too
Much Opium

OAKLAND, March 24.-Because of
his ignorance of legal procedure, John
w. Kelletf, who refused to have an
attorney defend him, failed today in
his appeal from the Oakland police
court. where he was fined 500 for
violating the pure food law
Kellett decided to argue his own
case, although he is not a lawyer In
preparing his appeal he neglected to
nave the magistrate sign the state
ment of the case, as required by law.
He attempted today to argue against
the constitutionality of the law under
which he was convicted, but Judge
Brown ruled that his failure to bring
his appeal in the proper way barred
him from going into the facts. All
that was left for Kellett to attack was
the regularity of the proceedings
against him, and Judge Brown decided
against him.
Kellett was arrested and convicted of
selling a preparation which he called
"Oil of Eden" and which contained
more than the two grains of opium
permitted by law.

gewitz that he was enforcing the un-
written law when he shot and killed
Smith, were introduced in evidence to-

for A. L. Frick. who is defending Jur-
gewitz, to do this

latter shot him, thus bearing out to
some extent Jurgewitz' contention that
he shot in self-defense. number of

penaed to testify that the dead man
was of a violent, and quarrelsome
