THINNER TO GO
TO FIND BROWN
CONFIDENTIAL CLERK SAYS
HE WILL START MONDAY
w. H. Ramsey, Alleged Victim Also
of Missing Broker, Is Out of Town
in Quest of 1900 Per Cent"
Fugitive

"If Harry D. Brown Is not brought
back to Los Angeles by Tuesday
night 1 will start for him myself
Wednesday," said H. r. thinner yes
terday afternoon.
thinner, who was Buster Browns
confidential clerk and cashier, and who
claims to have lost $4,000 through his
misplaced confidence in Brown, stated
the work of the police in the Brown
case was not to his liking and that he
intended to take a hand in the game
himself He expressed himself as con-
fident that if he saw the missing
broker he could induce him to return
to Los Angeles and face his creditors.
81 would have started after him be-
fore this, but L desired to straighten
out his affairs, and then l did not
want to give persons the impression
that 1 also was running away, which
doubtless would have been said had
followed Immediately. If Brown is
across the line in Tia Juana, as has
been stated, then 1 will have him back
in Los Angeles by next Friday at the
latest if he does not return volunta-
rily before that time.
GAS Brown left me practically PEN
niless when he skipped out, will have
to raise the money necessary for the
trip in some manner. Brown has rela-
tives who are wealthy, and l think il
he was made to return these relatives
would square his Indebtedness rather
than to see him sent to jail"
thinner is still living in room 613
in the Union Trust building, but will
not stay there after Tuesday unless
Brown is brought back.
w. H. Ramsey, one of Browns vic
Tins and a member of the firm of
Ramsey e Pollard, proprietors of the
Arizona bar, who stated to Herald
reporter that he was going to Tia
Juana Friday night and who has been
out of Los Angeles since that time,
has not been heard from.
Ramsey went for the express pur-
pose of having a heart-to-heart talk
with 1900 per cent" Brown, but did not
intend to remain away from Los An
geles long. He told thinner before he
left he would telegraph him if he met
Brown or if there were any develop
ments in the case, but thinner yester-
day stated that he had not heard from
Ramsey.

AT HARVARD ACADEMY
AIDS STUDENTS TO ATTAIN Ex-
cELLENT STANDING
Director of Sports Is Athlete of Note
and Was Identified as Leader

One of the best we'll known physical
culture directors in Southern Califor-
MIA is f. &c. Spence of Harvard Military
academy, who for the last three years
has been in charge of the gymnasium
and basketball work for the crimson
and black institution. In the basket
ball tournament of the Interscholast1c

with Los Angeles high school for thlrd
place, through the able coaching OF

Spencer is an athlete himself, having
graduated from Northwestern uniVer

sity track squad four years, competing
in the quarter mile and mile events,
and also the two-mile run.

an infringement of the rules, and IN

guard duty, he gave them fatherly adj
vice, and in return the boys thanked
him for his kindness.

MISS HERALD GIVES
PRINCE THE MlTTEN
She Tells Her Parents That She Is
Not Going to Wed His Royal
Highness After All

NEW YORK, March 21.-Miss Wini-
fred Herald, the daughter of Rev.
Charles Herald of 1892 cambridge
Street, Brooklyn, is not going to marry
the so-called Indian prince who pub
licly declared his love for her last
week, after all.
There never was any engagement,
and Winifred has told us that she does
not intend to marry the man." said
Mrs. Herald yesterday. 1--WE are very
sorry that anything has appeared in
the papers about the matter"
DIR. Herald is i'll in bed, partly as a
result of the annoyance his daughter S
reported engagement has caused.
Friends of the family tell some re-
markable stories about the prince.
TIshi Bhutia Kyawgh Hia, or more
frequently TIshi for short, was the
cognomen under which the prince
passed in Brooklyn, and his usual
method of making friends, so those
who have been looking up his record
say, was to join some church mission,
suddenly become a convert to Chris
tianity and be taken into the fold. How
he lived was somewhat of a mystery,
although he claimed to nave tea plan
tations in India.
Recently DR.. Herald received replies
to letters he had sent to the United
States consul general at Calcutta ask
ing for the record of the man. These
letters intimated that his name might
be Dewa Tendoop, and that he came of
a family in very moderate circum-
stances in the Dargeeling district.
They pointed out that T'Ishi, etc., was
the name of mountain and not of a
man.
Friends of the Heralds asserted that
when the letters giving the history of
Dewa were received by DR.. Herald
they were shown to Miss Winifred and
that she told T'Ishi about them. The
same night so the story runs burglar
got into the Herald home and stole
some of the letters, but didn't get the
important ones.
The prince is "a and Miss Herald
is 80

SIMPLE HONE RECIPE
SAYS MANY WAIT TOO LONG
DruqeIsts Here In Town Say They Can Supply
the Ingredients or MAIZE up the MIXTURE.

Get from any prescription pharmacist
the following:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-ha.f
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Shake well in bottle and take tea
spoonful dose after each meal and at
bedtime.
The above is considered as the most
certain prescription ever written to
relieve Backache, Kidney Trouble,
Weak Bladder and all forms of Urinary
difficulties. This mixture acts promptly
on the eliminative tissues Of the Kidneys,
enabling them to filter and strain the
uric acid and other waste matter from
the blood which causes RheuIna-
tisn.
Some persons who snffer with the
ffiictions may not feel inclined to place
much confidence in this simple mixture,
yet those who have tried it say the re-
suits are simply surprising, the relief
being effected without the slightest in
