HOW T FEELS TO BE
 HELD UP AT SEA
Associated Press)

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Dec. 29.-How it felt to be an American citizen with a distinctly German name aboard one of the steamers of the Porto Rico line recently searched by the French cruiser DescarteS was de- scribed today by c. L. Schif- ferdecker, one of the passen- gers on the steamer San Juan, from which two German pas sengers were taken prisoners.
 Schifferdecker was born in New York, his father being a German-American citizen and his mother English. He is a dentist and up to a year ago was practicing at 73 Warren St., Boston. For the past year he has been travelling for his health.
 We had heard on the San Juan that wireless message had been re- ceived warning Capt. Evans to get ill close to shore and stay within the three-mile limit in order to avoid be- ing searched by French cruiser" said Schifferdecker. "There were sev- eral of us with German names aboard and the captain laughed when he said that in a few hours we might be pri- soners of war.
 When we heard a cannon shot, shortly before midnight, we knew that he wireless message was not a joke, and when our steamer had stopped and a French officer and escort came aboard and I saw that the sailors were armed, I commenced to think of my name.
 
 ger list, with fourteen letters 1n it, sticking out like lighthouse. Nobody could miss it. Yes, Pm an American all right; but then there's my name.
 thInk they must have a regulation lot of questions they ask everybody, for after I had told the French officer was an American he asked me if I had my naturalization papers. Then he wanted to know if I had my pass 1 orts. 1 asked if he would have a pass port if he were travelling from Paris o another town in France. Then he aid, You're all right and I didn't pay much attention to what happened after that. I do remember though, that one of the Germans taken off left his good | money behind and carri
 with him. And I couldn't help but | think it was funny when the officer | told the two prisoners not to worry | You'll be among friends he said
 Schifferdecker said that he had not seen either William Gutherodt or Fritsch Lothar, the two Germans who | were taken prisoners, at any time dur ing the voyage from New Orleans until | just before they were taken prisoners by the French officer.

ABOLISHED THE JAILER

The three members of the Board of Supervisors are to be congratulated on their unanimous action in abolish ing the office of jailer and in- terpreter at Morenci. This office has been a useless prop osition ever since the state went dry, and the county was throwing away good money in keeping it up.-Clifton Min ing Journal, Dec. 16.
 Well, what do you know about that? No use for a jailer since Arizona declared for prohibition, and right in a strike district, too. Moren- ci used to be a tough place in the good old days when the booze flowed freely, and it furnished a pretty high per centage of criminals.-Cop- per Era.
