in each instance over the bail de-
manded in Ell Centre justice court
last January after news OF short
age in Ell Centre water funds burst
like a bombShell over the city.
Judge R. D. McPherrin permitted
the couple to remain at liberty on
bail each made after conspiracy
charges were filed against them in
FL Centre justice court last Janu-
airy. This was granted, Judge Nc
Pherrin said in order to give them
time to arrange for the new bail.
I'm the opinion of the districts
attorneys office" Deputy District
! ..ttorney r. I. French said at ar
raignment proceedings Thursday
morning, the bonds given in JUS
tice court do not comply with the
new bail bond law which went into
effect last Sept. Is.
Our office asks that the new
bail bonds comply in every respect
with the new law
In spite of the objection, how
ever, the couple was permitted to
remain at liberty on the justice
court bail Mrs. Richards said she
would be ready with the new bail
by pm. Friday and Little by 10
am. Saturday.
Plea to the charges in the indict-
ment will be entered by the couple
at $50 am. March %.
In addition to the embezzlement
charges listed in the 28-count in
dictment. the couple was accused
of conspiracy to take public money,
with destroying public records, and
with altering and making false en-
tries in public records.
The indictment did not include

grand jury was not filed 1t will be
filed within the statutory limit
of 10 days.
Count l of the % count indict-
ment listed So overt acts of the
couple from July 1888 to late last
December, including their plans for
their marriage in Arizona. The mar
riage was annulled after the short
age in Mrs. Richards accounts were
discovered. 1t was annulled because
Little married before his divorce
70 former wife became final.
Most interesting feature of the
bulky indictment was the month
by month list of the amounts the
couple was accused of embezzling.
'rne amounts varied from around
5000 to more than $1,000 a month
In July 1888 they were accused of
embezzling $l,36993; in August,

During the first month in 1889
they were accused of embeZzling
$l,766.97; in February $642 SO; in

The counts dealing with the false
entries graphically show the diff
ferences the alleged shortages made
in the income of the water depart
ment. For instance, on April 30,
1899, the correct amount collected
in the water department was So

to Mrs. Richards and Little was

rect amount collected was S70535l

Some weeks ago the highway pa
troll offices, faced with an invasion
of flies, hit upon the brilliant idea
of graduating them with fly spray
and ordered the dope through
gasoline station.
Carefully the officers filled a
spray gun and splattered the offices
with sticky dope. Stan WolfSohn
emerged as probably the best shot OF
the outfit.
Strangely enough, the fly menace
continued almost unaffected and the
the offices got stickier and stickier
The janitor mad a deuce of a time
cleaning the walls and the windows,
because Stan and the rest OF the
lads decided that what the dope
lacked in strength could be made up
by frequent doses Occasionally they
managed to kill fly, but largely
through drowning.
Then when .he can of dope was
exhausted they called the service
. station again and demanded refill.
But send another brand this
time!" Stan protested.

Allie Ritzenberg will be cunning
for his third public parks net crown
this morning when he teams with
Phil Burkem against Hy Ritzen-
berg and Stan Haney at 10 o'clock
on the Sixteenth and Kennedy
streets courts for the doubles cham

Originally scheduled three weeks

because of the exhibition appear
ance of Don McNeill and Mary

it impossible to reschedule it until
today, but the delay has not ap-
peased Ritzenberg's desire for more
titles.
Allie and Burkem, an all-Uni-

favored over their rivals largely be-
cause of their victory over George
Herbert and John Smith, seeded
No. l in the draw.

and joined forces with Charlotte

VermiIIion After Fourth Win
As FIoodmen Play Packard;
Taylor in Plaza Lineup

Billy Vermillion, robust pitcher
who formerly toiled for Roosevelt
High School, will try to extend his
National City League winning
streak to four games this afternoon
when he hurls for J. C. Flood
Plumbers against Packard-Wash-
ington. The game features a card
in section A.
Tied with Miller Furniture for
the lead, each having won four of
five games in the second half race,
the Floodmen have man-sized
task on their hands while the
Millers face a comparatively soft
foe in Frank Small Motors. With
this in mind, Billy will bear down
trif1e harder than usual and,
stout-hearted youngster that he
is, he'll go all out to win.
Vermillion started his streak
several weeks ago when a plague of
sore arms suddenly descended on
the team. He was obliged to 20
to Dick Rozelle's relief in the third
inning of a game with Marvin S
Credit, finishing out the string and
chalking up his first victory. He
pitched two consecutive Sundays
after that and won both games.
but neither game was as important
as the one coming up today. Billy
hopes to win No. and his mates
are ready to support him up to
the hilt.
Claude Bradley or Stan Wrenn
will pitch for Sam Coles Packard
Washington outfit. Bradley alb
sorbed surprise shellacking last
Sunday at Millers' hands and wants
to atone for that loss. The game is
of vital Importance to Packard, too,
for it is tied with Klein's and
Orange Disc for second place and
still has hopes of getting into a
play-off for the laures.
STOUT" Taylor, youthful veteran
Of Washington's sandlots, probably
will pitch for Frank Cinotti's Plaza
Tile and Marble nine against
Terminal Ice. Tommy Doonis has
been taking the Sunday assignment
for the Northeast crew but he de-
parted for Cincinnati last night
with the Union Printers and will
not be available. Taylor needs no
introduction and can be counted
on for good brand of hurting.
