Judge IIeyl has already won much
admiration by the chicken fans. His
cleverness in capturing the fancy

LEGAL TANGLE IS
NOW UNRAVEL|NG
Daniel TWeedie Is indicated in
District Court and Gains
$500 Thereby.

An end has been found to the tangled
thread of the old San Francisco theater
incident which will now undoubtedly
result in the unravehng of the same.
The said discovered end was verdict
rendered yesterday by Judge Andrade
in favor of Past Due Mills who was
suing to recover a note of $500 made
by Lionel Mathews in favor of Daniel
Tweedie. Around this same note is
woven various legal romances, the most
important of which from the viewpoint
of Tweedie being the one which re.
suited in his arrest for gross cheat.
That charge was made by Mathews
when he found Tweedie had returned
from the Coast, alleging that the latter
had sold him gilt edge gold brick
when he, transferred the San Francisco
theater to the teacher of languages.
The third character in the series of
remances, which boasts originality from
the fact that no woman is involved,
is lazy young man who posed as the
nephew of the Spreckels. This young
man is still posing in some middle Cal
ifornian town and is said to be getting
so much per pose. Tweedie charges him
with what pilikia really exists but ex-
cept as decoration he does not appear
in the local scene at all.
This young man after launching the
San Francisco theater appropriated the
receipts and skipped without settling
the accounts. Thereupon the theater
was sold by Tweedie, his partner, to
Mathews for cash remuneration and
the 5000 note. the balance of the bills
to be paid. The enterprise was wreck
ed on the rocks of life and Tweedie
disappeared. When he reappeared
Mathews had him arrested for gross
cheat. which case is now pending, and
Tweedie retaliated by suing for the
note.
TWeelie wins.
