JAIL Jose Ramos, 24, whose amputated ears were said to have adorned the late Pancho Villa’s private collection of curios, was in the county jail today serving out a fine of $300 at the rate of one day for each dollar. Ramos pleaded guilty late yesterday in Justices J. B. Cox’s court to a charge of having liquor in his possession. His punishment had been long deferred, as he escaped at the time officers raided his premises in the Anaheim Mexican settlement several months ago, and apprehended several sugar factory workmen, just starting to work with dinner pails that were loaded with liquor instead of lunch. Standing in a crowd that was watching another raid in the Mexican quarter Saturday afternoon, Ramos was observed by Deputy Sheriff Ed McClellan, who recognized him by his “earmarks.” Ramos claims that Villa, the now dead bandit chief, became angered at him and clipped off both his ears. LOSES $10,275 SUIT Wallace C.

The jury heard Miller’s story in Superior Judge Z. B. West’s court yesterday, but was not allowed to pass upon it. Judge West granted a defense motion for non-suit. Miller had been sent to find a new plug for the radio set. Rummaging through a drawer, he came upon the innocent-looking fuse, which he thought was a wave plug, he said. When he attempted to grind it down on an emery wheel, the resulting explosion destroyed one of his eyes and inflicted other injuries, he claimed.

Moreno failed to appear at a coroner’s inquest, yesterday to give expected testimony, and the coroner’s jury returned a finding that Pietro had come to his death through pneumonia, resulting from gunshot wounds.
