That is the .story the victim told police of the eighth precinct last night. She said a’woman about 25 years old, sedately dressed, came to her home and announced her supernatural 'powers. She requested to see the colored wom- an's Bible and all the money in the house. & The cash and Bible were brought out and the “doctor” said that as a special favor to the owner she would take both to her church and bless them. Then they would be lucky and bring good fortune to the one who possessed them. The statement apparently was true, since the “doctor” still possesses them and is still at large, although police +are searching for her, o PEES e gstl sist of both men and women, the ma- | EASTERN HIGH PLAY.
