TAKE NO MANS WORD

Your lawyer merely saying
given title is good will not make
it so. In fact, he won't say it
unless he has investigated.
And there's only one method
that has ever been devised for
making such inyestigation-by
means of an abstract.
If the President Of the United
States, or the highest judge in
the land should tell you off
hand the title is all right, it
could not bestow title.

RETIRED OFFICERS

Army and Navy Men Believe Death

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.-Army and

would not be surprising should an agi-

Since January five rear admirals on

In the navy officers are retired at g.

After service of forty or more years in
either army or navy, employment in
other lines after retirement is virtually
impossible, and these men, in the full
vigor of their mentality and in sound
physical condition, find themselves
without an adequate occupation to en-

It is said this accounts for SO many

SHOES WORNO
IN DEADLY CHASE
POSSE STILL HOT ON TRAIL OF
INDIAN MURDERER
Sheriff and Men Searching for Willy
Boy Thought to Be in Haz-
ardous Position in
Mountains
Especial to The Herald,l

RIVERSIDE, Sept. 30.-No direct
information as to the whereabouts OF
Willy Boy, the Indian murderer; his
girl captive or Sheriff Wilson and his
posse has reached here since Tuesday
night. Constable De Crevecouer got
to Banning from the mountains late at
night Tuesday and left again this
morning with a wagonload of provi-
sions for the sheriff's party. He was
in bad shape and Joe Toutaine, ar
other member of the trailing party, has
arrived in Banning with shoes worn
to shreds and feet cut and bleeding
from contact with the sharp rocks OIL
lie desert mountains.
The position of the sheriff's posse is
believed to be hazardous in the eX-
treme. The seven men now compos-
ing the party have abandoned their
wagon in the foothills and are dos
gedly following the murderer through
canyons, up steep mountain sides ana
through dense underbrush.
Four members of the party have
been sent ahead to try to cut off the
Indian before he reaches his home at
Twenty-Five Palms and the other
three are sticking to the trail. Two
of these, Segundo Chino and Henry
Pablo, are experienced lnQlan trdHeIS
and will kill the murderer on sight,
as the aged chieftain whom Willy Boy
killed was the head of their tribe and
was greatly respected.
The couple have cross-tracked their
pursuers in two instances, indicating
that they have seen them pass while
they have been in hiding. They walked
rails for long distances to throw their
pursuers off the scent, and the second
night out climbed the face of land
slide 120 feet high. They then rolled
rocks down the face of the mountains
to hide their tracks and the trail was
lost for some time as a result. When
the pair left they had bottle of
whisky and two bottles of beer that
the Indian had stolen from white
man. One of the bottles was picked
up on the trail. Cabazon station was
passed in the night, the Indian and
girl making a wide detour about it to
avoid discovery.
Members of the trailing party are
Sheriff Wilson, Constable Ben De
Crevercoeur, Wall De Crevecoeur.

Ritchie Segunda Chino and Henry

the Hop Sing and the Bing On tongs

Wah Sing, who is member OF an

Bing On tongs has driven thousands OF
Chinese out of Los Angeles.
lone years ago." said Wah Sing,
"there were 5000 Chinese in Chinatown,
and today there are net more than SOO;
vet today there are ten plainclothes
mn and a sergeant in addition to the
regular patrolmen who preside over
the destinies of Chinatown, While when
the bigger number of Chinese were in
the district two plainclothes men were
considered sufficient
"These extra police, in addition to
the regular officers who patrol their
regular beats, cost the taxpayers about
$1,000 a month, and the police records
will show that but few arrests are
made in Chinatown.
1.-TWO years ago there were arrests
made every month by the two men in
our district. and fines aggregating $3.50
to $500 a month were paid to the city,
while in the last year $50 has not been
received on an average a month.
I'VE who help pay the taxes feel we
are being prosecuted, and while we try
to live in accordance with the laws,
we know others in our district are not.
"While one year ago there were but
five or six fantan games in Chinatown,
there are at least fifty fantan games
within the district. Chinese are the
only ones who can find the games, as
no white men are allowed to play
"As a rule, the Chinese are law
abiding and wish to abide by the law,
and all have great respect for the
mayor They pay their taxes and cid
in support of the government, and
when there is so little disturbances in
Chinatown, we all feel there is too
much discrimination and too much ex-
pense o+tached to keeping such a large
number of officers in our district when
other districts only have one or two
men in addition to the regular officers
on the beats in their section"

nothing in violation of law was de-
