DEATH OF MRS.AR1 MAN
Concluded from Sixth Page.>


Mayor Brewer said he desired to make
a statement concerning an official act OF
Sergeant Ames. He had been informed
that two men who had a difficulty and
who didn't want to appear in court, had
compromised the matter. and paid the
sergeant fee of fifty cents each. The
Mayor held that there could be no com
promise without his knowledge, and no
fee, except in case of conviction. He
believed the Sergeant had made an er-
ror, but without any impure motive.
Sergeant Ames was granted floor priv
ilege. He affirmed that on last Tuesday
Joe Keller and Tom Norfeet had an
Argument" after which he summoned
both before the Mayors Later in the
day there was mutual agreement be-
tween Keller and Norileet 10 withdraw
charges, and the Sergeant was so in
formed. but claimed the right to collect
his costs-$l, which amount was paid to
him. He had afterwards returned the
money. If he had made an error he did
not intend 1t. He considered he had n
legal and moral right to collect the costs.
The individual opinions of the Coun-
cilmen were asked for. DR.. IIley thought
the act was an indiscreet one on the
SerGeants part. but had been commit
ted without any intent 10 do wong. The
officers explanation was satisfactory
He was advised to be very careful In fu-
ture, lest, on account of the public's lack
OF discrimination is might misconstrue
+he intent. He said Sergeant Ames was
q good officer.
Without amendment or eliminat ton
each OF the other councilmen said he
agreed with DR.. Eley.

NEW YORK, June 29.-John L. Bube,
native Zulu, has just arrived from
Africa. He is the grandson of chief
of his tribe and son of the first ma
tive preacher of Christianity in South
Africa Mr.. Bube has come to this
country to complete his theological
studies, so that he may enter the field
as a missionary to his people.
my grandfather was, he said. zone
of the chiefs of the trihue under Chaka.
the cruel head of the Zulu nation. l
am told that my grandfather was very
popular with his people and that
Chaka, owing to his great cruelty, was
very unpopular. In that way my an
cestor incurred the enmity of his SUI
peripr and the latter plotted to kill
him. He and his men were PREACHER
ously attacked and killed. My grand
mother fed with my father to Natal.
He became Christian and refused the
chiefship of his nation
Of the Matabe1e uprising he said:
."This has been caused by the treat

lish Rhodes and the other officials of
the South African company we have
found by fearful experience are trying

WANT THE FIGHT.
Many Spots Alleged to Be Available
for 1t.


SAN FRANCISCO, June 29-Many peo-
pie interested in the management of
pugilistic contests are sending kilograms
over the country in search of an available
spot for the CoTbett-Sharkey match. Dan
Stuart's Mexican concession is still held in
reserve. Several local and eastern sports
have been canvasSing the possibilities
of securing a location in Nevada In
less something unforeseen happens there
will be concerted effort to have the big
mill take place in Nevada.
The state and federal authorities how
ever, may not relish the idea and may
defeat the aims of the fistic enthusiasts
G.. NJ. Humphrey, United States mar
shall of the district of Nevada, has al
ready expressed himself as being op-
posed to the holding of any contests con-
trary to the federal laws AS yet the
leading states officials have not express
ed themselves.
Governor Budd has placed a quietus on
the Santa Catalina scheme and the only
battle ground that now practically re-
mains omen is the one across the MeM-
can border. There is some talk Of a
stretch of ground in the vicinity of Yuma,
but it's location is thought to be unfavor-
able so far as drawing a crowd is con-
cerned, and it will in all probability be
given d wide berth, as the gate receipts
will be an important factor in the con-
summation of the match.
