that belonged to the buggy stolen
from Jacob Hilgers couple of weeks
ago. 1t was brought to the city this

1t appears that instead of driving
to Cleveland and defrauding livery

feeding the team, the robber drove
southwesterly and probably headed for
Iowa. He disguised the appearance OF

proper place as great artery OF com.

HUNTING CAMP READY.
Every Preparation Made to Add to
RooseveIt's Comfort.

Lake Providence, La, Oct. T.
President Roosevelt's hunting camp
in East Carroll parish is all in readi-
ness for the arrival of the president
and his party. Every preparation has
been made to add to the comfort of
the party and all day yesterday men
were at work building drains and ar
ranging tents.
Eleven tents. have been pitched
within stones throw of the Tensas
river and the location is a good one.
Five of the tents are for members of
the party, while two will be turned
over to the negro guides and servants.
The remaining tents form kitchen,
dining room tent and a canvas tent
for the dogs.
Squirrels are numerous about the
camp and plenty of trout can be
caught in the Tensas. The servants
left at the samp will hunt for small
game during the day and will aid in
providing for the larder of the presi-
dents party.
The party will not be disturbed by
visitors, as the camp is situated ten
miles from q railroad and in a sec
ton of the country that has never
hear woodman's ak before men be-
gan work on the camp.
The camp is on the bank of the
Tensas river, about ten miles from
railroad or wire connection. The din
ing tent is sheltered by trees and is
between the presidents tent and the
river. The presidents quarters are
the fathrest from the river, with
the entire camp in front of him. On
the river bank are the servants and
the guides quarters and the kitchen.
A big tent apart from the main
group has been pitched for use of the
numerous horses.
Hanging vines from the trees about
the camp enclosure make a thick
screen which shuts in the small white
canvas village.
River reeds grow thickly in the
foreground. The Tensas is little
more than a good sized creek at this
point.

END JAP INVASION
STRAUS WILL PREVENT SNEAK
ING OVER BORDER.
INCREASE HAS BEEN NOTED
Japanese Who Sail for Mexico and
Canada Are Bound in every
Case for United States

Washington, d. c.. Oct. 7.--No more
suave Japanese are going to sneak
tower the borders OF Canada and
Mexico. The whole strength of the
department Of commerce and labor is
to be devoted to put an end to the
practice. For immigration of Japanese
into America is increasing at such an
alarming rate that it has been deter
mined to adopt extraordinary measures
to prevent the introduction, not only
to Japanese but of other Asiatic coolie
laborers. One result of the trip OF
Secretary Straus along the Canadian
border and the Pacific coast has been
an increasing of the force of immi-
border with view to controlling the
flood of Asiatics.
O.hcial figures of the immigrant On
Of Japanese are not available because
Secretary Straus declines to make
them public, but it is known that
more than double the number of Jap
anese have come into the United
States thus far this year as compared
with last year. Naturally the figures
of the government do not include the
hundreds of Japanese who have come
in surreptitiously. They have come
across the Canadian and Mexican
borders, practically without hindrance,
despite government regulations.
The government of Japan does not
issue passports for laborers to the
American continent. 1t does. how
ever,> issue passes for Hawaiian is
lands and Canadian countries. They
take passage either to Mexico or Ca
NADIA and there the way across the
border is easy. They take train, for
instance, from Mexico or Canada,
through the United States. The rail-
roads are not bonded as in the case OF
Chinese passengers, to deliver them at
specific destination. The result is
that the Japanese leave the train at
any point they may choose. They dis
appear and it practically is impossible
to find them.
For many months immigration in
spectors have been making investiga-
tions. /, In practically every instance
they have reported that the Japanese
who reach Mexico or Canada are
bound for the United States. In.
quiries in the Hawaiian islands have
revealed organizations whose business
it is to send japanese laborers to the
United States. They not only provide
tne means but have paved the way for
the coolies.
1t is this sort of work that the
government proposes to combat. In
the appointment of what practically
constitutes a patrol guard of the
northern and southern borders of the
country, Secretary Straus hopes to re.
duce the number of Asiatics, Japanese
Chinese and Hindoos who daily are
coming across the borders.
