BACKS FITz TO MEET o'BRIEN
Millionaire Changes Odds Of 10 to z
Against Ruby Robert to 10 to 9
in His Favor
Special to The Herald

Special to The Herald.
SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 1S.-A most
pronounced switch occurred in regard
to the O'Brien-F -Fitzsimmons match last
night.
Early in the evening O'Brien was
favorite at 10 to z. Then money started
to come in. There was apparently lots
of O'Brien money to cover that which
appeared on Fitzsimmons.
Then Fulton G. Berry, a millionaire
from the raisin belt, happended along
with $4,000. He got $4,000 to $500.
This betting established Fitzsimmons,
the aged gladiator, as favorite. The
fact that $4,000 was sufficient to so rad
ically change the complexion of the
betting shows that fight fans do not
appreciate the work that OBrien has
done here.
A week ago it was argued that Fitz-
simmons would go into the ring favor
lite because of his old-time punch. He
would not have been so had not Berry
come through with money to over
balance the gambling.
FitZsimmonS and O'Brien were both
around town tonight and each has
abundant confidence. I'VE will win
and win easily" was the statement
made by Manager Friedman on behalf
of Fitz. There is no chance in the
world that L will lose" said Jack

fourth jump yesterday he bolted and

Jockey Monahan, who was thrown

One court that holds a session IN
Umatilla county every Monday morn
ing, but that gets little publicity Is
the Umatilla Indian court which cou-
venes at the agency each Monday,
for the purpose of settling the petty
differences between the tribesmen.
Two judges. who are regularly
elected by the tribe, preside and hear
witnesses, and after a case is closed,
decide the merits of each side and
award accordingly. George Bomson
and Longhair are the present judges
and will hold until October. when
council of the tribe will be held and
other judges elected, or these will be
reelected.
There are many veteran judges on
the reservation. Louie Sampson, an
aged Umatilla living on the Tutuilla,
held the position for 10 years, and
finally retired because the Indians, in
wrangling over their petty troubles,
often kept him at the session from 10
o'clock in the morning until 2 p. M,
causing him to miss his dinner nearly
every Monday. He declared he was
100 Olu 10 30 NllllOul anu
tired from the bench u year ago.
Court is held by the Indian judges
every Monday morning, because Sat-
urday is the Indians great day in
town, when many of them get drunk,
and either ride some other mans
horse out of town, or run away with
his squaw, and so in order to try
the cases while fresh in the memory
of the litigants, each Monday is fixed
as Indian court day.
An Indian court room is provided
at the agency and the Indian police
where a family row is precipitated by
in witnesses or litigants when needed.
The judges sit in silence and listen
to the different sides of the cases, and
then decide as to who is entitled to a
verdict. The Indians respect the
awards and decisions of this court,
and consider its DEGREES binding in
minor matters, it, of course, having
no jurisdiction in matters that would
properly come before the agent or the
courts of the state.
Where one Indian rides another's
horse out of town by mistake. or
WneTe IdIllly TO WIS piSClPltoNSu W
some drunken member, or a breach
of tribal etiquette is perpetrated, the
Indian court has jurisdiction.
A case decided a short time ago
was between two squaws who had
traded horses, one giving the other
a dozen hens "to boot" After the
trade had been made and the horses
exchanged the squaw who had prom
ised to give the hens ''to boot" was
found to have only eight hens, and
the other squaw brought the matter
before the judges, to recover her fu'l
dozen.
The judge decided that the dozan
hens must be produced or else the
trade called off, and the eight h1n'
forfeited by the squaw who had given
them in trade, as penalty for lying
to her neighbor, as to the number
she would give.
