HIDDEN IN CAVES.
A scheme for Smuggling in Chinese Is
Discovered.

San Pedro, Nov. 1.-THE finding of
a number of pieces of discarded Chi
nese clothing on the beach near Point
Vincent and of a cave recently occu-
pied, has convinced government agents
that contraband Chinese are being
smuggled into the country along the
coast between San Pedro and Redondo
beach and arrangemen were made
today by immigration Inspector Geo
H. sweet for a thorough patrol of this
section.
Inspector Sweets theory is that the
Chinese are brought up from Mexico
in launches and taken to one of the
many hidden caves along the coast
where they await an opportunity to
slip into Los Angeles and from there
scatter to all parts Of the state:

agent and that one look at her would
scare him away without further par
ley, she went to the door, opened it
just wee bit and peeked out. That
agent IS wearing a coat uncommonly
like Billy's, she thought, but opened
the door a little wider to take a better
look. But the visitor had caught sight
of her, and it was too late for her to
retreat. Billy was not expected and
he was not wanted just then but the
same is true of so many visitors that
one gets into the habit of pretending
to be pleased when they arrive. Billy
made another mistake in seating him
self in a position that commanded a
view of the dining table on which were
strewn some unnameabIe articles that
had arrived that morning from the dry
good store, and because of that rip in
the poor girls skirt, she found it i'm

and remove the offending display. But
the girl was a game little stole and
entertained her guest as graciously as
though she hadn't realized that her
collarless neck looked a yard long and
that her naturally curly hair would
be known as a myth. There was just
one grain of consolation in the situa-
ton and that was that if Billy's affec-
tlon survived that visit. nothing could
cripple it, and the girl is now and for
ever sure of him.
