Heads off Fakirs.
Greensboro Record.

Greensboro Record
Acknowledgement Beckett, of
this State, has done one thing
that will forever commend him
to the people. It is likewise the
best kind of sense. For years all
kinds of fakirs have been peram-
bulating over the country giving
exhibitions alleged to be for the
benefit of various home organiza-
tions, fremen included. The game
is to elude taxes, when very
often the home industry" is
left in the lurch. Mr.. Beckett
decides that all such arrange
ments are a fake and that the
tax must be paid, no matter in
whose behalf the show is pulled
off. But the firemen are not
alone in this skin game. Y. M. C.
Associations and others have
been swindled world without end.

Serious Symptoms.

Mrs. Annie Hamilton, Stetsonville,
Wis, developed serious symptoms, as a
result of some form of female trouble
from which she suffered
A letter, in which she describes these
symptoms and tells how, by the Cardui
System Of Home Treatment, she finally
managed to cure herself, may prove of
value to you,if you are suffering, as she
did, from ailments peculiar to women.
She says: ''When | was suffering
from female trouble, | could not sleep,
eat, or stand on my feet without pain.
l could not work, and could not stoop
en- account of pain in my side. l took
medicine from three doctors without
benefit, and the last one said was in a
critical condition, and going down hill.
At last I took Cardui and in two days

BEATS HIS WIFE BECAUSE
DINNER Is NOT SUITABLE
Woman Declares HusbandsMakes Her
Work to Earn Money for House,
hold Expenses

Deputy District Attorney Arthur
Keetch yesterday issued a complaint
against Jose Ramerez charging him
with battery on his wife, Isabel
Ramerez, who appeared at the central
police station with both eyes dis
colored and her face greatly swollen.
According to the story of the woman,
her husband earns enough to- support
the family in comfort, but instead of
contributing toward the household ex-
penses he spends all the money on him
self for good clothes and for Injuries
for his own use, forcing her to work
in order to earn enough to defray the
household expenses and buy clothes for
their small child.
Several days ago, according to Mrs.
Ramerez, she was compelled to spend
all of her earnings for the week to buy
clothes for the child. Her husband be-
came angered because she prepared a
meager dinner and upbraided her for
not having more to eat. she asked him
to give her some money from his sal
airy. and he sprang from his chair and
beat her brutally.
Ramerez comes from well known
Spanish family that has lived in Cali
fornia since the early days.

Savings bank dated March was given

Brown on this charge owens is alleged
to have told the detectives that the
check was dated the same day he re-
ceived it, and when he took 1t to the
bank he found Brown had no funds on
deposit.
When Owens testified that the check
was post-dated and was in effect moth
ing more than promissory note, Dep
uty District Attorney Keetch asked that
the case be dismissed, as there is no
law to cover such cases.
After the case was dismissed A. A.
Sturges, an attorney who represented
Brown, demanded that Keetch give
him the check. Keetch> replied that
the detectives were in possession of
the paper. Sturges then turned to De-
tectives Jones and Boyd and demanded
the check, threatening to bring pro-
ceedings in the event it was not forth
coming.
1.-THE check is not yours and 1 refuse
to give it to you. 1t belongs to
owens" Jones is said to have replied.
''Well. / represent Mr.. Owens, an

some heat.
"Did you represent him when he was
testifying for the prosecution?" in
quired Keetch.

past" Sturges is alleged to have re-
marked 81 represent him now and

| Hoover street, yesterday afternoon
| The blaze, which is believed to have
| been caused by crossed wires in the
attic of the two and one-half story
| house. gained such Roadway that
flames were bursting from almost
every window when the fire depart
ment arrived. Mr.. Drake estimates
| the loss at $4,000.
Mrs. Drake and her children were in
the house when the fire started. They
were unaware of their danger and
were on the first floor The first
| knowledge they had of the blaze was
when a passerby ran in and informed
Mrs. Drake that flames were bursting
from the roof.
Valuable Property Saved
Mrs. Drake and the other occupants
of the house gathered up a few per-
sonal belongings on the first floor and
rushed into the street. An alarm was
turned in. Before the arrival of the
fire department Patrolmen Bean and
Hickok, noticing the dense clouds of
smoke, hurried to the scene and at once
turned their efforts to saving some of the
valuable pictures and gold-encased cut
glassware.
They had made several successful
trips when Mrs. Drake informed Bean
that a sack containing a large amount
of money and valuable jewels. most of
which are set with diamonds, was
locked in a desk on the top floor. She
hurriedly explained the position of the
desk and stated she had got the arti-
cles in readiness to take to safety de-
post vault.
Bean and Hickok braved the dense
clouds of smokes and the flames
which by that time had enveloped all
most the entire second floor, and after
cropping about located the desk and
obtained the sack with its valuable
contents.
Girls Rush to Rescue
They reached the street safely. turned
the sack over to Mrs Drake and were
about to enter the house again when
a number of students from the Girls
Collegiate school appeared and rushed
into the building and returned with
articles of cut glass and silverware.
BY this time the fremen arrived and
soon number of streams of water
were being directed on the burning
house. Some of the firemen turned their
efforts to saving the valuable fuTni-
ture, and before the flames became so
hot as to prevent their entering the
building nearly all the most valuable
furnishings. including a massive side
board, were saved.
Two firemen from Engine company
No had a narrow escape from death
when a burning gable at the front of
the house became detached and fell
with crash barely missing them.

He stood before mirror, placed the
revolver to his right temple and fired,
The bullet entered the right side of
the head to the front of the temple
and emerged from the left cheek.
o. T.. Jensen, a cook employed at
the Jonathan club, was passing at the
time and heard the shot. He rushed
upstairs and grasped the revolver just
as the unfortunate man was about to
make another attempt at self-destruc-
ton. A struggle ensued and despite
the fact that Oberlander was bleeding
freely from the wound in his head and
that the floor was slippery with blood,
Jensen had great difficulty in overpow-
ering the wounded man.
The police ambulance responded and
Jensen walked downstairs and entered
the wagon apparently without great
effort. He conversed with the officers
and declared he was tired of this life
and wished he had made a success OF
his attempt at suicide.
Late yesterday afternoon Oberlander
was resting comfortably at the receive
ing hospital and the police surgeons
say he will recover.
