GIRL is WRESTLER.
Throws Grown We
men Just as Easy.

LONDON, Sept. 14.-Miss Lauder
Brunton, the daughter of Sir Lauder
Brunton, who is the president of the
international congress on school hy-
giene, made her debut the other day
as jiu-jitsu wrestler before an assem-
bly, of grave and serious professors
and educational authorities from all
parts of the world. The display was
organized by Mrs Roger-Watts, who
is advocating jiu-jitsu for the school
curriculum. If rightly taught and
practised, she maintains, 1t is of the
greatest moral and physical benefit,
whether it is adopted in youth or old
age. The greatest interest was shown
I'm the display. which came as a well
come turn" amid the solid discus
siOns of the day. Mats were spread
in the great hall OF the Imperial insti-
tute in the most approved music hail
style, and the learned professors
crowded around and made the ring.
First of all three pretty little girls
entered, dressed in black silk knick-
ers and the white kimono-like jacket
of the iiu-jitsu wrestler. Mrs. Roger
Watts, in similar costume, drilled
them in the gestures and the move
ments of the wrestler, and the child
rem went through their PAGES vigor-
ously, throwing imaginary foes. The
professors nodded approvingly. The
sturdy little limbs and the strong
arms of the children, and their
healthy shining faces were sufficient
testimonials to the world of Mrs.
Roger-Watts' ideas.

GOLDFIELD BROKER
CASHIER SLUGGED

GOLDFIELD, Sept. 14.-After
checking over the accounts this morn
ing over the accounts this morning,
ii was found that the firm of e. II.
Holland, 413 Columbia street, had
suffered loss of $3.50 in gold as a
result of the attack upon Herbert E.
Riggs, the bookkeeper of the COM
pany, and the robbery of the wide
open safe between 1915 and 1890
o'clock last night. The sheriff's Of
fee has so far failed to apprehend
anyone, and no clew has been found
as to the robber.
Riggs had come back to the Office
to check up his accounts, and, ac-
cording to his statement. had drawn
about 1915 in gold with which to pay
a customer. He had $50 in gold on
the desk beside him, checking an ac-
count, when, as he tells the story,
a blaek-haired man with a black hat
and growth of beard, appeared at
the window and begged him for some
money.
He told him he had none, and
glanced down at his books. AS he
turned to see if the beggar had gone,
he was evidently struck a glancing
blow with billy. 1t was at first
thought to be the hammer which lay
beside him when found with which
he had been struck. but this would
have cut the scalp, and Riggs is Of
the opinion it must have been billy.
