FARMER RELIEVED
 OF A FAT ROLL
Florence Thurman, Negress. We'll known to the Police, Does Some Light Fingered Work and Gets in The County Jail.

FIorence Thurman, a negresS well known to the police, was yesterday bound over by Justice J. P. Knox to await the action of the Jefferson county grand jury on a charge of grand larceny. She was transferred to that court from the City Police Court, having been arrested Thurs day night at 10 o'clock, following an exciting scene which was enacted near Union Station and in which R. R. Boyd, a young farmer from Cleve- land county, figured rather promin- ently.. In the mixup Boyd lost a purse containing $1S5 and the money has never been recovered by the po- lice. < ,...
 Boyd met the negro woman near Union Station and she engaged in a pleasant conversation with him. They talked for several minutes and 1, sud- denly Boyd realized that something had happened. The woman picked his pocket, he said,. and removed h:s purse, containing the fat roll uf greenbacks. He grabbed her. She screamed as loud as she could, ''Mur- der!" Police" Help" Boyd held onto the fighting negress, however, until Patrolman John Minor reached them. She got away from the young farmer for a minute and in the ex- citement was seen to throw the purse away. The woman was arrested and taken to police headquarters, but a search in the darkness failed to re- cover the missing purse. Morris Coleman. q young negro, son of George Coleman, local saloonist who was recently convicted in the circuit court for obtaining money by false pretenses, was also arrested. The police believed that the woman gave the young negro the purse to keep for her. The woman and the boy denied the grand larceny charge They were defended by Attorney Tay- Tor. The boy was discharged but the negress was held for the grand jury. She was placed in the county jail. Boyd left the city wiser man.

SOMETHING
 WORTH KNOWING
And Knowing Is Belleving-You Can't Have Dyspepsia and Take Kodol, Because 1t Digests all the Food You Eat.

Chronic dyspepsia is very hard to cure. Kodol will effectually assist in curing, and it is far more satisfactory to prevent this disease. KOdOl pre- vents dyspepsia by making the di- gestion good, and keeping 1t good. It is worth something to know this, if you have indigestion, and likely to have dyspepsia. Kodol prevents dys- pepsia and makes the digestion good, by digesting all the food you eat. A tablespoonful of Kodol will digest 2 IA pounds of food. That is, a tablespoonful of Kodol will digest that quantity of any kind of food you may eat. Not only single class of food-but all kinds of food, in any combination. You cant have dys- pepsia, if you take Kodol now and then-because it is not possible for you to have dyspepsia, as long as your food digests properly, ,--and Ko- dol digests the food you eat. Our guarantee--Get dollar bottle of Ko- dol. If you are not benefittei-the druggist will at once return your money. Don't hesitate; any druggist will sell you Kodool on these terms. The dollar bottle contains 2 1-2 times as much as the 50c bottle Kodol is prepared in the laboratories of E. c. Dewitt & Co.,, Chicago.

CREDITORS ASK FOR
 :" ANOTHER RECEIVER
Stockholders and Creditors of the Bank of Dumas Hold Meeting at Dumas to Protect Their Deposits i'm Defunt Institution.

Judge M. X. Austin has returned from Dumas where he appeared as counsel for a number of creditors of the defunt Bank of Dumas, which went into the hands of a receiver at that place several days ago. At a meeting held by the stockholders and creditors of the institution Thurs day night, it was agreed upon the appointment of another receiver to take the place of G. "A. Werner, who was named by Judge Wood when the bank was closed. The stockholders and creditors say that they do not object personally to Mr. Werner, but do not believe that the cashier of the institution should administer the affairs of the Bank. The special com mittee is composed of A. E. Smith, c. w. McCullom and William Pur- year. Judge Wood will be asked 70 name another receiver at once.
 The new bank organized there re- gently refused to assume the liabili- ties of the defunct institution, thus leaving the depositors of the Bank of Dumas at the mercy of the usual court procedure in such cases Many persons are said to have lost heavily in the Dumas bank failure. One de- positor is reported to have made a deposit of $500 in the Bank, three days before it was closed.

"a defunct railroad and therefore had
made good in that connection. He pointed
out that the state loaned S60O0o0 at six
per cent. 10 the D., NJ and v, and the
Breakwater and Frankfort Railroad. In
1851 the bonded debt to the state was
reduced to $4,000 and the interest rate TO
four per cent. In 1891 the debt 10 the state
was reduced TO $4,000 and the interest

JAPS PRACTIClNG
FOR OCCIDENTALS
Brown Men Confident of Winning
When Bats Are Crossed with
Negroes Sunday Afternoon
at Chutes

Much interest is being displayed IN
the Japanese Occidental baseball game
scheduled for Chutes park Sunday
afternoon. Both mines have been prac-
ticing daily for the contest and a
question Of racial supremacy will be
decided when the two clubs cross bats.
The Japs are more than confident, as
they have imported a really trst-class
pitcher, who, it is said, will have
Blacks colored team completely at his
mercy. Careful inquiry, however, re-
veals the fact that the Japs will use
Tozer of the Los Angeles team in the
box, while Orendorff, the promoter and
star catcher. will receive his delivery.
Just whether the Occidentals will be
able to do anything with Captain
Norris fast Japs no one has been able
to decide The brown men are an un-
known quantity and while said to be
a little weak with the stick, fully make
this up by their wonderful Unfolding.
Batting practice for the past week
also has done wonders for them.
Although the colored team has easily
conquered the Los Angeles Giants and
several other fast amateur mines, it
is an even money bet that they will
have met their match among the semi
professional teams when they cross
bats with Norris aggregation. One of
the largest crowds of the season is eX-
pected to fill the Chutes park bleach
ers when the teams clash. 1t is ru-
mored that the winners will be chal-
lenged by the fast Los Angeles ALI

All members of the Southern Cali

necessary" as the clubs invitations

After numerous jokes and fishing

First, distance in fly casting; sec
ond, accuracy in fly casting; third,
distance in casting half ounce weight;
fourth, accuracy in casting half ounce
weight; fifth, distance in casting pa
ounce weight. No. z will be an old
timers event arranged especially for
the members of the club who are in
experienced in casting tournaments.
A motion to admit catches of two,
three, four and five tackles was passed,
and it was also decided to admit
catches for button prizes in three, six,
and nine; nine divisions of tackle.
1t was reported at the meeting that
professional fishermen picked up a 112

FlKUTA AND JOHNSON
SIGN FOR MAT BOUT
Jiu Jtsu Exponents Anxious for Trials
of Skll-Card Will Be Staged
at Mccareys Pavilion

Ryo Fikuta and Fred Johnson yes
terday afternoon at The Herald office
signed articles for a jiG jitsu wrestling
match to be held on or about January
6 and which Promoter Orendorff will
stage at McCareys pavilion.
Fikuta is held in great esteem among
the japanese residents Of Los Angeles,
as he is a third degree mat artist. AL
though there are five degrees con-
ferred, four of these are rewards Of
merit as a wrestler, the fifth only
being given for some especial mark Of
bravery.
As there are but three or four jiu
jitsu artists who have ever attained
to either fourth or fifth degrees, FL
kuta is the best wrestler Of this kind
now in the United States.
The Fikuta-Johnson affair probably
will be staged as the final event of an
all-star card. Already much interest
has been aroused in the Jul jitsu
match. as this will be the first oppor-
tunity ever afforded Angel city fans
OF witnessing a really first-class eX-
ponent of the art. Johnson also pos
sesses considerable knowledge of the
Japanese style OF wrestling and is one
Of the strongest boys among the rank
and file Of the coast.
