DENOUNCED AS A FRAUD
Mrs. Nichols Makes Another Raid on
the Charitable People of Nevada.

For week past a woman styling
herself as the agent of the Chill
drens Home Finding Society of Cal
ifOrnia," has been soliciting subscrip-
tions in this city. The Appeal yes
terday called attention to her and
suggested that if Nevada people
wanted to help orphans they could
help those of their own state.
The woman called at the Appeal
Office for money the day before and
when asked for her credentials pro-
duced some railroad passes which she
seemed to think was sufficient proof
that she was alright
She turns out to be the same
woman who some years ago collected
a lot of money in Carson and was ex-
posed by the Appeal as a fraud She
was also in court here when trying
to obtain possession of a child. The
court ordered her to relinquish pos
session of it.
The Reno Journal Of today has
the following regarding her:
Mrs. Jennie G. Nichols, self-styled
agent of the "Chilrden's Home Find
ing Society," of Berkley, Cal, is de-
nOunced as an imposter by State Su-
rerintendent II. w. Brayton of that
organization. Mrs. Nichols has been
III Reno during the past seven days,
collecting funds for the society.
Charges Of getting money under
false pretensos have been preferred
against Mrs. Nichols. she was ex-
posed in Carson City January IS. 1901
and dismissed from the children's res
cue board of Oakland. Rev. II. II. Nc
Creery, pastor oil the Presbyterian
church there, wrote a communication
to the newspapers at that time telling
CT the connection Mrs. Nichols had
with fraudulent attempts to collect
funds.
The latest denunciation of Mrs
Nichols is contained in a letter tC
Mrs. F. p. Damn, secretary of the
Reno Branch Of the home finding-so
ciety. Superintendent Brayton says
in the denunciatory article:
Enclosed is clipping from the
Nevada State Journal that tells of tht
remarkable record of this woman wht
the exposure by Rev. H. II. McCreer,
in 1904, and so she is trying again
to procure money for her own use.
Mrs. Damn states that Mrs. NichOl
had no connection with the loca
board. The officers of the organize
ton here are Miss Margaret Nay
, berry, president; Mrs. F. P. Danr
secretary and Mrs. B. c. Shear"'
: treasurer.
, The grand jury is now in ses@....' j
