Show OH WAUGH TAKEN ' OH VAGRANCY CHARGE Oh Waugh, alias So Long, a Chinaman, China-man, was arrested Tuesday morning on a charge of vagrancy. The arrest was brought about by Waugh's refusal to pay poll tax. He admitted to the tax collector that he had been in the city for fifteen years, but said that he had not worked for six months and had no money with which to pay the tax. Patrolman Selgfus, who had seen the Chinaman gambling in the Chinese joints in Plum and Commercial alleys, arrested him on a vagrancy charge. |
