Mrs. Kmma K. Kriwards who koepa
tlie Spot rooming houe on West .Main
street, and a. .Mexican named S. Gon
Xiilcs, were arraigned in I'ollt o .ludge
Taylor's court tills morning on the
chargn of assault with a deadly weap
on. The Mexican was charged with
pandering. They pleaded not guilty
and their hearings were set for tills
afternoon, and they were ordered
held under bund of J.'.ou until the
time of trial.
The arrests grew out of a brawl
in the rooming house last Sunday
night, daring which the accused and
a man known as John Hue, who has
not been arrested yet, it is alleged
badly beat up with a black jack a
middle aged Japanese by the name of
Nobuichi Takeshima.
As a result of the trouble Sundav
night and also because of the long
known general bad reputation of the
resort, it is probable County Pros
ecutor Roberta will take Bteps to
have the rooming house closed, un
less Mayor On tea and Chief of Police
II it t son act to close the place.
The Ki! wards woman put up with
.Hidgo Taylor a number of diamond
rings in cxecsa of $."Oii value as bail
for her appoaiauce this afternoon.
