A Crazy Wrestier. Ichimura, a Japanese -who has been working for several months past for Farmer Pruett on the Sanford ranch twelve miles below Grass Valley, was brought to the county jail last night by Thomas Garlick and D.D. Lynch, and locked up on acharge of insanity. For some time he had been acting queerly and a day or two before his arrest insisted upon running over,the farm in a nude condition. This forenoon two jail trusties who were in charge of him called for help, and when Sheriff Getchell rushed to their rescue Ichimura turned on him and a lively wrestling match ensued. The little Japanese, who claims to have been a professional athelete, and the big and active Sheriff who is~ himself a handy man, wrestled desperately for several minutes until finally Getchell’s size and strength gave him a. victory over the other’s skill and the refractory priséner surrendered and took a bath. ‘This afternoon be became so bad it was found necessary to strap bim toa bed and administer an anesthetic.

The matter creating the most interest and discussion at ldst night’s arraignment of Night Watchman Fowler for neglect of duty. . He was not present to meet the charges, which were numerous and of a serious character, although it was suggested several times that it would be a good idea to have him brought before the Board and personally warned that if he did not from this time forward perform his duty more faithfully he would be summarily removed. Trustee Carr brought up the subject by saying there were numerous and strong complaints being made that the officer was not even making a pretense of enforcing the ordinance passed on Nov. 19, 1891, requiring saloons to not only keep their doors closed but to refrain from doing any business whatever between the hours of 12 o’clock midnight and 5a.m, and that he was not endeavoring to suppress gambling. ae ; Trustee Gault added that there were also complaints of disgraceful “riotous proceedings of nights in the latticefront houses on upper Commercial street, and that the officer was doing nothing to check them,’ Trustee Rich added that Fowler makes no pretense of holding the hoodlum element in check. “He permits them to run around all hours of the night,” said Mr. Rich, “using all sorts of language, and ladies who happen to pass along the streets are compelled to stand it.” ty Mr. Carr said to have such an ordinances on the books and not enforce them constituted a burlesque. Mr. Rich believed the midnight ordinance should be enforced at all times without fear or favor, making no exceptions on the Fourth of July, when grand lodges meet here or on any other occasion. : -“[rustee Jackson was of the opinion that when we invited grand lodges to come here, gave them the key of the city and extended the city’s freedom to them, it would be well enough to overlook technical infractions of the law, or rather to nat see them. Mr. Rich thought 7 law good at one time was good at all times; and Mr. Carr held that as long.as the. law: existed it was the Board’s duty to enforce it. The latter gentleman added that the people of the city generally approved of.the midnight ordinance. “ Mr. Gault—“Yes, even most of the saloon men approve of it. We should cause suits to be brought against all offenders.” Mr. Carr—“ We pay officers to attend . to these matters. If they don’t attend. to business what can we do? The night watchman was put on largely to see that this ordinance was obeyed, and:if he will not do it we better get somebody who will. I myself have seen saloons running full blast after closing time, while officer Fowler stood around saying nothing.” : Trustee Rector—“I am not im favor of enforcing the s‘rict letter of the law, but believe we should see that it is obeyed as neafly as practicable. At times it is almost impossible to get people out of saloons promptly at twelve o’clock without calling an officer.” Mr. Rich—-“It is as easy to. get them out at twelve as later.” Mr. Jackson—“I think we should put a notice in the papers before having any arrests for violation made, espec-. ially as our night watchman has. been so lax of late.” Mr, Carr—“The offender@: would perhaps be more careful if they understood that in case they are once arrested and convicted for violating this ordinance they cannot get another license.” A general discussion followed as to various saloons that it was claimed were not observing the law, and the statement was made that in one of them there had recently been dancing Land singing going on as late as 2 and 3 o’clock in the morning. : . Mr. Rich—“We should notify the night watchman to enforce this law or quit.” : Mr. Gault—“I think we should summarily enforce the law to the letter.

He was not present to meet the charges, which were numerous and of a serious character, although it was suggested several times that it would be a good idea to have him brought before the Board and personally warned that if he did not from this time forward perform his duty more faithfully he would be summarily removed. Trustee Carr brought up the subject by saying there were numerous and strong complaints being made that the officer was not even making a pretense of enforcing the ordinance passed on Nov. 19, 1891, requiring saloons to not only keep their doors closed but to refrain from doing any business whatever between the hours of 12 o’clock midnight and 5a.m, and that he was not endeavoring to suppress gambling. ae ; Trustee Gault added that there were also complaints of disgraceful “riotous proceedings of nights in the latticefront houses on upper Commercial street, and that the officer was doing nothing to check them,’ Trustee Rich added that Fowler makes no pretense of holding the hoodlum element in check. “He permits them to run around all hours of the night,” said Mr. Rich, “using all sorts of language, and ladies who happen to pass along the streets are compelled to stand it.” ty Mr. Carr said to have such an ordinances on the books and not enforce them constituted a burlesque. Mr. Rich believed the midnight ordinance should be enforced at all times without fear or favor, making no exceptions on the Fourth of July, when grand lodges meet here or on any other occasion. : -“[rustee Jackson was of the opinion that when we invited grand lodges to come here, gave them the key of the city and extended the city’s freedom to them, it would be well enough to overlook technical infractions of the law, or rather to nat see them. Mr. Rich thought 7 law good at one time was good at all times; and Mr. Carr held that as long.as the. law: existed it was the Board’s duty to enforce it. The latter gentleman added that the people of the city generally approved of.the midnight ordinance. “ Mr. Gault—“Yes, even most of the saloon men approve of it. We should cause suits to be brought against all offenders.” Mr. Carr—“ We pay officers to attend . to these matters. If they don’t attend. to business what can we do? The night watchman was put on largely to see that this ordinance was obeyed, and:if he will not do it we better get somebody who will. I myself have seen saloons running full blast after closing time, while officer Fowler stood around saying nothing.” : Trustee Rector—“I am not im favor of enforcing the s‘rict letter of the law, but believe we should see that it is obeyed as neafly as practicable. At times it is almost impossible to get people out of saloons promptly at twelve o’clock without calling an officer.” Mr. Rich—-“It is as easy to. get them out at twelve as later.” Mr. Jackson—“I think we should put a notice in the papers before having any arrests for violation made, espec-. ially as our night watchman has. been so lax of late.” Mr, Carr—“The offender@: would perhaps be more careful if they understood that in case they are once arrested and convicted for violating this ordinance they cannot get another license.” A general discussion followed as to various saloons that it was claimed were not observing the law, and the statement was made that in one of them there had recently been dancing Land singing going on as late as 2 and 3 o’clock in the morning. : . Mr. Rich—“We should notify the night watchman to enforce this law or quit.” : Mr. Gault—“I think we should summarily enforce the law to the letter. If he will not do it we can find plenty of good men who will.” : « Mr. Jackson—“And we should see tbat he has no favorites.
