RICHARD JUST
AVOIDS ARREST
The Fight Promoter Offends By
Plucking Oranges in
OrOvilIe

The San Francisco Chronicle gets
from Oroville, Cal, the following
story of one of G. L. Richards recent
adventures:
Tex Rickard, the Nevada mining
and prize fight promoter, came with
in an ace of benig arrested in Oro-
vile today on charge of petty lar
ceny, and it was only after the ut
most exertions of his friends that the
officers We're finally induced to be-
lieye that their prisoner was Tex
Rickard. promoter of the Gans-Nel-
son fight.
Tex was in Oroville to view the
Oroville diamond mine, in which he
is interested He had occasion to
pass through an orange grove and for
the first time in his life saw oranges
growing on trees. He started to pick
few oranges, but not content with
picking a few he filled box and
called an expressman to take 1t away
The officers were apprised of the fact
pA ooHlt VI IblChdIu 5 IIleHuS, VINO
hurried to them with the story of the
theft but failed to state his identity.
Those officers promptly proceeded
to place their man under surveillance
pending further investigation. Tex
and those friends who were with him
tried in vain to shake them off. FL
nally they turned to the officers and
asked what was the trouble They
were told that Tex would probably be
arrested for orange stealing Then
they revealed the identity of the sus-
pect, but the officers were from Mis-
souri,. Finally by letters, affldavits
and personal statements they per-
suaded the police of Richards iden-
tity. When they told the men that
he was the man who put on the great
Gans-Nelson fight, that finished the
business and the officers withdrew.
Richards friends in Nevada need not
expect any more oranges.
