ing Pleasant Grove in the afternoon a
''yeller dog rushed into the street and
ran alongside OF the automobile barking
fierCCly. After the occupants of the car
had heard the animal give his entire rep
ertoire once. Smith decided to put stop
to the concert before the selections were
repeated. He took off the muffler with
such effect that the ripsnorting gaso-
line explosion sent the dog bowling TO tins
house.
But-that wasn't all,
The entire p0Duiacc Of Pleasant Grove
apparently heard the reports and thought
the town was being visited by the James
boys.
The automobile had hardly left the
place. when teams were hUrriedly hitchcd
up, ana posse Of leading citizens was In
hot pursuit. Some rode on horseback. but
for some unknown reason they failed to
overtakc the automobile. One man,
thought to be the village cut-up, tele-
phoned TO the marshal at Provo to stop
the men i'm that automobile. They have

The Provo marshal was on the job.
When Smith and his party came flying
into Provo the first thing they saw was
the officers star glimmering in the sun
shine. The telephone men tried 10 eX-
plain but there was nothing doing.
Smith asserted that his cylinders had
popped at dogs and dog fellers' a whole
lot more valuable than "Caruso. the pet
of Pleasant Grove" but the chauffeur s
eloQuence failed TO have the desired ef-
feet upon the limb of the law. The men
were not allowed 10 proceed in any direc-

officer as a surety that they would ap-
pear in Provo for trial this morning.
