opinion regarding the fight pictures was

Il do not think there is any reason
for opposing them. | think the Objec-

removed, as they generally are"
You see," said DR.. Moore, when the
interview was quoted to him, Mrs

of this statement, and | think she is

NORTH GOES TO SACRAMENTO

NORTH GOES TO SACRAMENTO

Fred Horning. companion of Carl
Sutherland, murderer of Captain of
Police Auble, who was released from
Folsom penitentiary several weeks ago
on habeas corpus proceedings, after
serving two years on murder charge,
was arrested in San Francisco yes
terday, according to a communication
received by Captain of Detectives
Flammer last night.
Just what charge will be filed against
him is doubtful. According to the au-
thorities. there are several lines along
which they can proceed 1t is alleged
there are old charges against him
which have not been OutlaWed. The
officials also have the opportunity of
asking the higher courts to review the
action of the Sacramento magistrate in
releasing him.
Horning's arrest was due to a tech
nicality in the complaint filed against
him. The complaint charged that the
assault had been committed with a
"deadly weapon" but not one word
was there to show the nature or kind
of weapon used. According to District
Attorney Fredericks, who filed the
complaint against him, his release from
prison was done without consulting
him.
John North, deputy district attorney
left Los Angeles for Sacramento last
night to hold a consultation with dis
trict Attorney f. B. Wachhorst of that
place regarding Horning's release.
1t is likely that Horning will be de-
tained in the San Francisco city jail
until some definite action is decided
upon by the local authorities. He was
arrested upon advices of Captain of
Detectives .FlammeT and District At
torney Fredericks.

the woman hauled from her hiding
place. She was sCantily dressed and
apparently had flown to her place of

officers.
The chiffonier stands about five feet
high and from all outward appearances
looks like a useful bit of furniture.
The locks on the drawers and the
handles and the mirror above adds to
its apparent genuineness. An air hole

the back of the chiffonier. The furni

this been received that it is being tried

Perhaps the first use of some strip
of silk or embroidered materials as yet
uncOiupleted-nnt made into a finished
article was the giving OF a length OF

those returning from distant port or

Real faces next came into play. more
frequently when some rare piece was
obtainable. but now the habit is in

Christmas gift between women friends
or from one who feels herself incapa-

All sorts of short lengths of good
lace are now found acceptable and
need only the added touch OF the cot
ored ribbon tied about them to make
