KATY WATCHMAN AND A
PORTER HAVE TROUBLE
Following a Rooming House
Fight Pair Are Brought
Before Police Judge.

II. c. williams, night watchman for
the Katy railroad, and the porter of
the oliver hotel had misunderstand-
ing Thursday morning. Williams said
he was passing the Oliver hotel when
the porter, Walter Stephens. invited
him up, tempting him with the usual
bait After he had taken Il room he
said there was a quarrel over money
matters and Stephens and the hotel
proprietor, Isley, jumped on him and
beat him up.
The porter said williams went to
the hotel and wanted to buy whisky
and when he told him they didn't
have any whisky. Williams jerked
his pistol and whaled him over the
head with it. He grabbed the gun and
tried to wrest 1t from the watchman,
and in the scuffle the weapon was dis
charged, the ball going thru a mat
tress. Isley rushed in and helped over
power Williams and he and Stephens
held him until officers could arrive.
Both testified that Williams was
drinking and had a small bottle or
Jamaica ginger in his possession,
which the officers took from him.
Williams told the officers ne was
an officer and had a right to carry
q gun. 1t developed that he did have
a deputy's permit from Sheriff Nc
Cullough. Judge Evans fined VIII

'AlphOnsc and CASTOR" Appear.
An amusing scene was enacted when
the case of w. A. Numety and Sol
Burkett, Hebrew Jftney driver, was
called. 1t had been postponed from
the previous day on account OF the
absence of Numety's alwyer. The lat
ter was again absent and there was
a discussion between the complainant
and the defendant, the judge and the
assistant city attorney, as to whether
or not the trial would proceed without
Numety's counsel, or be continued.
Burkett objected to the last proposf-
eral hours the day before, "and / am
losing money right now at the rate
of $3.50 TO 81 an hour; it's the busies,
time of the day and everybody's go
ing home" he complained.
Numety said he didn't wish to cause
his prosecutor to lose money, and he
heroically agreed 20 submit TO Bur-
kett's prosecution without any lawyer.
Burkett said, mo, don vanta push
|you to trial until you are ready"
The court stopped the exhibition of
offers of mutual sacrifice by continu-
ing the case until this afternoon.
Burkett was driving his jitney along
Third near Wheeler and had a. mum

senger was Numety. He fell to ours

kett elected him. Numcty picked up

back down the street. Burkett dropped

got the officer. and Numety was ar

A bad back isn't a bad thing II II

disorders. Kidney diseases are fright
fully common today. We over-do 90
much. We don't give the kidneys
chance to rest up, and while O bad

sional dizzy spell or persistent head
