ENTERTAINMENT OF
 S25,OOO CHARGED
Bank Clerk Arrested in H0uS- ton and Held Under
 S2,50O Bond

Gadsden August 22-The reported arrest at Dallas. Texas, of W. B. Heidt, S4 former teller of the First National bank of Gadsden, on the charge of the embezzlement ot something over S25.O0O, was a great surprise to his friends here. The facts in the case as obtained from J. Henry Lester, president of the First National bank, are as follows:
 MT. Heidt resigned his position as teller in December, 1921, and one week later returned to the bank and confessed to President Lester that he had embedded a sum of money and gave the amount. An examination of his books proved the correctness of his statement. Two weeks later the American Surety company reimbursed the bank for their loss and the surety company went onto Heidt and his relatives made good the shortage, and both the bank and the surety company dropped the matter as they had been reimbursed.
 Several months later federal agent came along and found the de- falcation when he went over the hooks and he secured an indictment against Heidt at the recent term of
