CAR FOR JOY RIDE
FL PasO Auto Driver Has Car Put Out
OF Commission In JuareZ and
Cannot Make Protest.

To have the gears of his. four pas
senger Cadillac stripped and then to be
threatened with arrest if he made any
strenuous objections, was the exper-
fence of F. F'roW, a public driver, who
made a trip to Juarez Saturday night
to pick up a load"
According to FrOW, about 1880
o'clock Saturday night he stopped his
car in front of the BLACK Cat in
Juarez. A rebel captain with three
or four COMPANIONS, who had been
drinking, emerged from the cafe. The
captain and his companions spied the
car and decided they wanted to take
joy ride. After being driven for
several blocks, the captain, although
he was not acquainted with the work
lngs of an automobile, decided he
wanted to drive the car. Frow said
the captain cuffed him, and then took
the steering wheel FrOW was afraid
to say anything, he said, because he
knew that he would be arrested.
In driving the machine several
blocks, the inexperienced Mexican
made several changes of the gears.
The car was soon out of commission.
A friendly chauffeur brought FrOW
back to Ell Psso. City detective Fred
Delgado made the trip to Juarez in an
automobile Sunday afternoon and
tOwed the damaged car back.
