arriving at the end OF his tourney.
Lee hunted up an officer and told him
OF his wrongs. Henry Reed and Hugh
Stafford were soon on the case and in
a short time captured Louyiere and
Lognlon in nearby restaurant. At
first tie boys denied any knowledge
OF the case, but after telling several
conflicting stories, they at length ad-
mitted all the charge except that of
taking the money. They were placed

which, fortunately J, was then in ses-
sion. Their case was called Tuesday,
and the grand jury brought in d true
bill, charging them with highway
robbery.

THE ugliest proposition is the big
wagons of the express companies. They
are worse than streetcars, or anything
else that moves. The man who drives
one of these express wagons seems to
take special delight In blocking the

There you arei There's quick proof
of what I've been Keeling of to you
about those express company drivers.
Have you noticed what a different
class of men there are at this time who
are driving the autos In this burg?
Better in appearance and more intel
ligent lot than you saw here a few
years ago. OF course, you have noticed
Why the change? Because the cheap
bunch has been largely thinned out.
What you wise guys are in the habit
of calling the process OF elimination is
what has caused 1t. And we don't want
cheap men to run the autos. They're
no credit to the business and they are
careless and destructive.

After that he hasn't the courag e to

Il am glad to say, on behalf of the
decent element among the men, that
this scandalous business is getting
the cold frown, and it's only a matter
of a short time when 1t will be played
out altogether. It's only the unreli-
able and poorly paid men who indulge
in that sort Of thing now. The road

Gentlemen? OF course we're gen.

as such.
Trouble with policemen? Don't you
believe it.
Not a bit of IT, not any more-that
is, the better element among the
chauffeur fraternity doesn't bump UP
against 1T. There was a time, though,
when the chauffeur considered the po-
liceman his deadly enemy. The gent

lordly air, the six footer who looked
upon himself as the only pebble on

it's prestoi change, and the policeman
and the chauffeur wonder why 1t was
that they lived in open hostility so
long. And they are getting closer to-
gether all the time.
IF the policeman wants anything
he calls upon the chauffeur, and if the
chauffeur wants anything he calls upon
the policeman. ] mean by that that If
the chauffeur needs protection he can
get it at once from the officers of the
law. and the policeman knows that he
can call upon the chauffeur to help
him out in all cases of emergency.
The policeman now looks upon the
chauffeur as a necessity and doesn't

would be unheard of if the machine

by the way, you may not know it.
but we've got an association now COM
posed of chauffeurs and owners and
others In the business. The chauffeur
is required to pass an examination for
efficiency. just like a locomotive en-
gineer does, before he can get into the
association. He must know every part
of machine. how to take it down and
put 1T together again, what strain he
can put the machine to. and he must be
familiar not only with one make of
auto, but with all varieties It's
pretty safe guess that when 1t is gem
orally known that suen an organization
exists here it will create lot or salts
faction among the auto riding folks.
"A first class chauffeur nowadays can
