JACK JOHNSON GOES TO JAIL.
Judge lands Refused to Accept the
Bond Offereti-One Of Bondsmen
in Jail for Contempt

Chicago, H.. Nov. 8-Shackled to
a United States Deputy Marshal, John
Walter Johnson, heavyweight pugil-
ist, was taken TO the county jail to-
night after a futile all day fight to
have his 100000 bail bond approved
by Federal Judge Lands. Johnson
is under indictment by the Federal
grand jury under four counts charg-
ing violation of the Mann White Slav-
cry Act.
Judge Lands in examining the
bondsmen uncovered a situation that
he denounced from the bench as a
braZen attempt to put over a dirty
deal on the court that would have de-
graded the old police court of Chicago
in their worst days. AS a result of his
discoveries, the judge held Albert
Charles Jones, one of the bondsmen,
on a .charge of contempt of court, and
sent him to jail in default of $4,000
bail. Jones incurred the Indignation
Of the court when he admitted on the
witness stand that $4,000 worth of
real estate scheduled in the bond of
fered by Johnson had been secretly
decided by Jones to his wife.
District Attorney Wilkerson open
ly charged in court that Johnson
planned to leave the country on No
vember Goth if released on bail.

mington, who were fleeced out Of
$4,000 on a New York wire tapping
fake, will have their money returned
to them by prominent North Carolina

to hush the matter up. Thousands
of dollars are said to have been lost
but unpleasant notoriety is less de-
sirable than the conviction of the

err" was arrested to-day in New York,
causing alarm among the f1eeced Tar
Heels. He and pretty woman gain
ed the confidence of people in this
State, and steered them into the swim
die. He showed them a dead sure,
but crooked way, to beat the gang of
crooks in the metropolis by receiving
racing returns first, and placing bets

racy around the State, are said to
have fallen for the game. Sidberry

COL. ROOSEVELT BRINGS SUIT.
Paper That Charges Drunkenness
Cursing Will Have to Explain.

New York, Oct. 25.-Col. Roose-
Welt has instructed his counsel to
bring criminal libel against George
S. Newett, publisher of the Iron Ore,
weekly newspaper printed in
Ispheming, Michigan. The suits are
based upon an article printed in that
paper on October 18th, headed, 1.-THE
Roosevelt Way"
According to a formal statement
made public at National Progressive
Headquarters to-day, this article con-
tanned the following paragraph:
Roosevelt lies and curses in
most disgusting way. He gets
drunk, too, and that not infre-
quently, and all his intimates
know it,"
Judge James H. Pound, of Detroit,
Mich, has been retained by Colonel
Roosevelt as his attorney. The
monetary damages have been fixed
at the nominal sum CT $4,000 be-
cause, as the statement explains, cit
is not a question of recovering mon
ey from Mr. Hewitt that is inducing
Colonel Roosevelt in the least COM
mencing these actions. They are
brought because by the publication of
this libel in his newspaper Mr.. Newett
has furnished the first opportunity
that Colonel Roosevelt or his
friends have been able to find Of the
prompt and authoritative disproof of
the charge that he is drunkard.
Marquette, Mich, Oct. 25.-Geo.
A. Newett, editor of the Ispheming
Iron Ore, who has been sued by Col.
onel Theodore Roosevelt for criminal
libel and damages of $4,000. was ar
rested here this afternoon. His bail
was fixed at $4,000, and he is at
tempting to furnish bond.

return home and face Annie. With a
muttered exclamation of impatience
he spat from his mouth the half-con-
sumed cigarette which was hanging
from his lip, and crossing Broadway,
walked listlessly in the direction Of
Park place.
He had certainly made a mess of
things, yet at one time, not so long
ago, what a brilliant future life
seemed to have in store for him! No
boy had ever been given a better
start. He remembered the day he

his mother had only lived Then,
maybe, everything would have been
different But she died during his
freshman year, carried off suddenly
by heart failure. His father married
again. young woman 20 years his
junior, and that had started every
thing off wrong. The old home life
had gone forever. He had felt like
an intruder the first time he went
home and from that day his fathers
roof had been distasteful to him. Yes,
that was the beginning of his hard
luck. He could trace all his misfor-
tunes back to that. He couldn't stand

ing It.
Then. at college, he had met Robert

man, who had professed to take
great fancy to him. He, timid young
freshman, was naturally f1attered by
the friendship of the dashing, fascinat-
ing sophomore and thus commenced
that unfortunate intimacy which had
brought about the climax to his trou-
bles. The suave, amiable Underwood,
whom he soon discovered to be a gen.
tlemanly scoundrel, borrowed his
money and introduced him into the
sporty" set, an exclusive circle into
which, thanks to his liberal allowance
from home, he was welcomed with
open arms. With a youth of his pro-
clivities and inherent weakness the
outcome was inevitable. At no time
overload of study, he regarded resi-
dence in college as a most desirable
emancipation from the restraint of
