Show ARRESTED FOR ROBBERY. The night before last a fifty-dollar check, drawn on McCormick's bank, and about seven dollars in silver were stolen from Mr. Scott Colin, at his room, in the Wasatch building. Payment of the check was stopped, and a Chinaman named Wong Ling was found yesterday offering it for sale. As a consequence the man from the Flowery Kingdom is languishing in prison, awaiting examination on a charge of committing the theft. When Wong Ling was arrested he had on his person a lady's valuable watch and chain. Perhaps somebody has lost these articles, as this Chinamen is evidently given to "ways that are dark and tricks that are vain."-News. |
