Doyle's serve and his ability to play

AUTO DRIVERS
OBEY THE CALL
How the San Francisco Police
Stop the Time
Killers.

When the police department purchas-
ed motorcycle for use in trailing down
auto scorehers, letters were addressed
| by the department to various police de-
partments on the mainland for informa-
ton as to the manner of securing evil
dence against speeders. Former Chief
Taylor received personal letter yes
terday from Chief Buggy of the San
Francisco police department relative to
the subject, which follows:
:" Under our State law all proprietors
of automobiles must procure State Ii
cense, consisting of plate with large
numbers thereon. In addition to this,
each chauffeur must also procure State
license containing number, both to be
placed IN such position that they may
be seen plainly by people on the street,
The machine license, as you know, is at
tached to the rear of the machine in
plain view.
Our motorcyclists are equipped with
the best machines that can be procured
in the market, and provided with
split-second stop-watch. With this para
phernalia they frequent places where
automobiles are suspected of exceeding
the speed limit, and, being pretty well
versed as to time, have little trouble in
spotting driver violating the law,
take after him, timing him for few
blocks, then hail him to halt which, If
he refuses to do, and they are unable to
overhaul him on the machine, get the
number of the license on the machine,
procure a John Doe warrant, and from
the license book issued by the Secretary
of State, ascertain the residence of the
owner of the machine, and thus appre-
bend the driver.
"By the foregoing method the police
have the subject pretty well under con-
troll. and drivers have come to under
stand that when called on to halt the
best thing to be done is to comply.
If there is any further information
you desire on this subject, suggest it,
and we will be pleased to furnish the
same.''

THIEVES COMMIT ACTS
Of RANK VANDALISM

The men who entered and robbed the
residence of r. /. Lille in Manoa OF
Thursday combined vandalism with
thievery. The house is the one usually
occupied by DR.. Norris and his wife
who, when they left for Europe two
months ago, rented it furnished, to Mr.
Lille. While the latter and his wife
are in Hilo his clerk, Mr.. Burnett has
been sleeping there.
He returned home on the eight
o clock car Thursday night and arriv-
ing at the door found it open. He
attempted to light the hall light but
it failed to light, so he returned to the
veranda and lighted one there. The
open door showed table at the en-
trance with two chairs and four copies
of a New York publication which the
robbers had evidently been reading. He
decided that there had been visitors
during his absence and he mortified
Ralph Lyon, his nearest neighbor. To-
gether they went back to the Lille
house and found everything in dis
order
Trunks had been opened by smash
ing the lids with an axe. a hat had
the crown cut out and leather port
manteaus were slashed with a knife
and the contents scattered around the
house Mr.. Burnett had cigars in a
supposedly safe quarter but the box
was removed with the contents, three
of them being found on the top of a
pile of the Norris clothing.
Nothing that could be damaged was
overlooked; handkerchiefs were used
and thrown aside The silk cover tc
an umbrella was cut into shreds and a
draft for twenty-five dollars and ten
dollar gold piece belonging to Mr.
Burnett were taken, but as payment on
the draft was stopped there was nc
loss there. The police were notified
and Kalakiela and an assistant visited
the scene at 10 clock last night.
This is the third robbery the report
ed recently in this vicinity. the Efin
ger house having been entered twice
and the Blaekman house once. The

berry cannot be estimated until the
Lilies are heard from.

prices and she has set them up about
the house. The Chicago society woman
is one of the best bargainers in London
and dealers have learned to be very
careful in trading with her. She never
purchases an article before first getting
expert opinion as to the real value.
Above all, she refuses to pay Morgan
prices Whenever it comes to her
ears that J. Pierpont Morgan is inter-
ested in an article she drops it like a
hot coal.
This feeling against being Morgan
ized'' by the art dealers is not confined
to Mrs. Potter Palmer, but is now very
general throughout London. The ma
jority of those who attend Christie
auctions are well acquainted with the
dealers who have the purchasing ear
of the American millionaire and do not
waste their time bidding against them
above a reasonable price.
