NEGRESS WHIPS JIU JITSU
EXPERT WHO ATTACKED HER
EASILY BATTLES DEATH STRAIN
GLE HOLD
Oriental Cook Attempts to Eject Her
From House-She Knocks Him
Down When He Bites Her and
PummeIs Him to a Finish

Sarah Henderson, negress, exploded
the science of jiu jitsu yesterday by
whipping a Japanese cook to a stand
still. The Japanese attempted TO en-
tangle her in the meshes of the dreaded
death lock, but Sarah told Prosecuting
Attorney Frederickson that she was
entirely too foxy to be caught by the
trick, and before the Japanese could
count ten in English Sarah ho3 him
PROSTATE upon the floor and was lis
tening to his pleas for mercy, COM
mingled with promises to be good.
Sarah says she went to house on
Budlong avenue to consult the woman
who lived there about getting her
washing" She asked the Japanese
cook for his mistress and was told that
she was not at home. The cook became
impressed with the idea that Sarah
wanted his job and ordered her to de-
part hence without unnecessary delay.
Sarah stopped long enough to attempt
an explanation that she despised the
calling of cook and wouldn't have his
old job at any old price. The cook
didn't believe her story, and when Sarah
fingered too long for his excitable
nerves he attacked her.
Sarah couldn't bring herself to a
proper appreciation of this strange con-
duct and unseemly familiarity, and she
says she soaked" the cook an uppercut
on the solar plexus and put him down
for the count.
Sat Upon Him
The cook was up and ready to cor-
tinue the fight for championship honors
in nine seconds and brought his beloved
jiu jtsu into play. He attempted to
get hammer and lock death hold on
her neck, but Sarah was the more scien-
tific and with we'll directed leads for
his wind she had the satisfaction Of
noting his prostrate condition at her
feet. With her ponderous weight she
sat upon him.
There were lively doings for a few
his lost consciousness he noted that the
tide of battle had flown to his adver-
sary and the proper and discreet thing
to do under the circumstances was TO
beg her pardon.
Hit am too late fo' you to be akin
my pahdon, you no count trash," ex-
claimed the irate Sarah, and she added
few more we'll directed blows on his
proboscis. This satisfied her greed for
gore, and with the laurels of victory
surely hers, Sarah proudly left the
house with her head in the air and her
chin pointing toward the summit of
Mount Lowe, vowing her contempt for
all jiu jitsu artists.
She was so angry at what she termed
the Japanese's impudence in attacking
a "cullud lady" that she sought war
rant for his arrest, but after Prosecut-
ing Attorney Frederickson caught his
breath and wiped the tears from his
bedimmed eyes, he informed her that
the exigencies of the occasion had been
fully met by her and the law could offer
no further solace to her fractured
nerves.

Liberal Leaders Declare
Army Is Ripe for Revolt

ST. PETERSBURG, July From
Moscow comes a story that the 200, 600
reserves recently called to the colors are
only awaiting their arms to make a de-
mand on the Czar for a constitutional
government with the threat If the de-
mand is not complied with they will
join the revolutionary movement. Lit
tie Importance is attached to the story
in official circles.
1t is declared that there has been
nothing to indicate serious disaffection
anywhere in the army. These claims,
however. do not agree with the reports
received by the liberal leaders. They
declare they have sure information that
the army outside the Cossacks Is al
most ripe for revolt.
Thousands of pronounced revolution
aries are In the ranks, including hum
dreds of officers. They are in touch
with each other and only await the
psychological moment to declare them
selves. 1t is pointed out that few of the
troops outside the Cossacks and Asiatie
regiments have been called upon for
actual work in putting down rioutous
demonstrations.
