SAN BERNARDINO, Nov. 22.-(Reg
ular Correspondence.) The officers of
San Bernardino may occasionally make
faux pas in the matter of a criminal,
but they usually get there again and
make amends for it. Some weeks since
a train robber from Texas. engaged in
the hold-up away back in '33. was
traced to this city. where he has been al
honored citizen for years, but Nemesis
was on his trail. He was located. and
an officer came after him. but. ignoring
that San Bernardino was a county seat
of considerable Importance. the fresh
official went through to Los Angeles and
worked the case from there. On nOtifi
cation Of what was wanted. the San Ber-
nardino officer rounded up the man
wanted, Noah Lee. and held him for the
tenderfoot official, who was having
good time where he was. and as he held
Nthe warrant in his pocket there was no
authority to place Lee in Jail, and an Of
Ger was detailed to hold him under sur
veillance until the warrant came. This
watchful care was little slack at times.
as the suspect showed no inclination to
avert his fate, and when the officer went
into a barber shop for a shave, and his
prisoner said he would walk around on
the outside, nothing was thought OF it
until. on coming out, the bird had flown.
Officers have been on his trail, however.
and he was brought In yesterday and
sent on to Los Angeles, from whence he
will probably be taken to Texas for trial.
He was brought before United States
Commissioner Cole while here, and bail
at 10000 was fixed. Y-
