Charles Wilson. Sheriff Frank Hiel
was in British Hollow looking after
one OF the parties to the fist fight
that was had there a few days ago,
for which John Schiffman, Jr., was
fined. In the course of his investiga
tions he had occasion to hunt out
Charles Wilson and followed the
trail into Honerbaum 5 saloon, where
he found the boy sitting on a billiard

allow minors in his saloon, and that
when he was arraigned on the charge
of allowing minors in the place of
business he admitted having had such
a notice from the district attorney.
