Satu Retail Dept., Corner Sixth & Spr OFFICERS STOP SMUGGLERS Big Touring Car Captured by Immigration Inspectors in Orange County Traveling at desperate speed along the coast from San Diego toward this city, a forty-horse power touring car driven by L. W. Noel, a well known San Diego man, was halted at pistol's point by Motorcycle Immigration Officers Gustav C. Jones and Robert C. Allison at San Juan Capistrano at 1 o'clock Wednesday morning and 'ts occupants placed under arrest on a charge of smuggling. In the machine was found contra-band opium valued at $4000, a smuggled Chinese named Chin Sing from Tia Juana, and Martin Mendoza, who claims to be an employee of the Mexican government. He was arrested with Noel as a party to the alleged smuggling only after a savage struggle with the officers who overpowered him barely in time to save themselves from a weapon in his hands. The capture was effected as the climax to a wild night's ride across country from Elsinore, at which point the immigration officers are stationed. They are attached to the Los Angeles Immigration Inspector's office and the prisoners will ultimately come under the jurisdiction of Capt. Charles T. Connell, to whom his subordinates wired a meager account of their nocturnal exploit Wednesday. It constitutes a worthy chapter in the story of the fight of the government against the illicit traffic in dope and coolies and its further investigation may reveal a closer connection with the recent sensational developments in coast smuggling than now appears. It appears that the alleged smuggling party left Tia Juana with their illicit freight about daybreak Tuesday. There was a brief stop in San Diego, possibly for the purpose of taking on fuel for the long run to this city, which Noel had planned to make at top speed and without stops. An inkling of what was going n had already reached the watchful border patrol, however, and the departure of the swift car from San Diego was known to the immigration officers almost before its dust had settled. Some time was lost in an investigation to ascertain the real mission of the big car and by the time the government men were satisfied that the circumstances warranted instant arrests the autoload of contrabands was many miles away. It was decided that, with such a lead to overcome, pursuit from San Diego would be useless. Instructions were immediately wired the station at Elsinore that the machine was to be intercepted and its occupants placed under arrest at all costs. Heavily armed, Motorcycle Officers Jones and Allison were promptly dispatched from Elsinore Junction on the long and hilly roundabout road to San Juan-by-the-Sea.

Remark of Dr. Baldwin's concerning upstarts: We don't care to eat toadstools that think they are truffles. Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the under-taker will be sorry. The universal brotherhood of man is our precious possession, what there is of it. Be careless in your dress if you must, but keep a tidy soul. If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man. It is more trouble to make a maxim than it is to do right. Pity is for the living, envy is for the dead. A PROPHECY "The bill met with an ominous reception," said Mayor Baehr of Cleveland, discussing a measure that had failed. "Its reception was, in fact, as ominous as that accorded to the Christmas melodrama in the two-night stand. "A melodrama—'Murdered at Christmastide'—was to be given for two nights in a small town.

The officers opened up their machines to the limit and by desperate riding managed to reach the coast well in advance of their prey. It was decided, rather than to take any chances of possible escape by side roads, to proceed farther north before attempting the capture. A point a short distance outside San Juan was selected for its strategic advantages and there the officers hid their machines and squatted in the darkness to await the coming of Noel and his companions. The pounding engines and glaring searchlights of the big car, driven to the limit of its capacity, gave ample warning of the approach of the party. Making every preparation to meet armed resistance, Jones and Allison took up positions in the middle of the road and, as soon as their voices could be heard above the roar of the automobile, shouted to its driver to halt. Noel, crouched over the wheel of the racing car, apparently appreciated that the game was up. He instantly cut off the power and the big auto panted to a reluctant halt almost upon the waiting officers. Not so Mendoza. The Mexican did not appear to realize what had happened until the machine stopped and the government men stepped to its side. Then he whipped out a revolver, yelling in Spanish to his companion to go ahead. The flash of the weapon as it swept in a half-circle through the darkness warned Jones and Allison of their danged. Together they leaped upon the running-board and before Mendoza could pull the trigger they had dragged him from the machine, overpowered and disarmed him in the road. In their own auto the captives were made to turn and retrace their path to San Diego. PUDD'NHEAD MAXIMS We ought never to do wrong when people are looking. Let us be thankful for the fools. But for them the rest of us could not succeed. Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example. When in doubt, tell the truth. There are two times in a man's life when he should not speculate. When he can't afford to and when he can. Hunger is the handmaid of genius. Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond, cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education. Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been. It is easier to stay out than to get out.
