THINK CAPTURE
IS IMPORTANT
MONTERREY OFFICIALS ARREST GER
MAN 9F SEVERAL NAMES-HlS
PAS8foRTS ARE SUSPICIOUS.

A stxea{er headline in "El Dia". a
Monterrey Newspaper, reaching Brownsville
last night ynnopnced the capture of sus-
piciousrappearing German in Monterrey
Thursday morning. The identity of the
man weuld seem to make the fact of his
capture important, for some reason known
to the Mexican officers, but not divulgcd
in the article in "El Dia.n
According to aEl Dia" the man came in
to the Hotel del Golfo at half past two
Thursday morning, dusty and travel stain
ed, and carrying valises heavily coated
with road dust. Jorge Constandi. an Ital-
ian merchant of Torreon, saw him enter the
hotel and recognized him. He Immediately
denounced the man TO the police.
Taken to headquarters, the man said he
was German doctor named Leon =. Goit
lieb. He was searched and contradictory
passports were found on him. One was is
sued BY German consul, and said Gott-
lieb was a German. A second was from
an Austrian consul and said he was an
Austrian subject. A letter of recommenda-
ton found with the passports gave the
Uldu name OtHeT tHun nOttHtb, anu Ills
visiting cards gave still third name.
Gottlieb is known TO have been with the
Villistas in Torreon in November 1916, ac-
cording to the Monterrey newspaper, and
is alleged to have forged checks and pass
ed them on Monterrey merchants. lie went
next to San Pedros de las Colonas, and
then disappeared. He is thought to have
gone to the United States for time
Thursday morning he turned up in Mon
terrey, having come from no one knows
where.
Judging by the tone of the newspaper
article the Monterrey police believe that in
Gottlieb they have made a capture of some
importance. Conjecture j. heard in Mat
amoros concerning the possibility of Gott-
lieb's being the same German as the man
who, in the guise Of priest, took the train
west from Reynosa last Sunday and alieht-
ed at Camargo. The description of the two
men tally almost exactly.

Jane had no intention Of confin

associated with him too long to ex.

and persuade him by her. skill in
preparing them that he liked them

Not until she tried to carry out
this scheme did she guess what diff

OF costliness. The knowledg. that
there is as much nutriment in the

and laid it in the casserole with a
sliced onion, turnip and carrot and
stalk Of celery she poured in two
cupfuls Of cold water, covered the
casserole closely and baked the
meat steadily for three hours. Then
she took it out, seasoned and thick
ened the gravy and served the dish
to her family who ate it with gus
to and enthusiasm that made her al
most regretful Of the excellence Of
the product.
"If it hadn't been 80 good it
would have lasted longer" she re-
Elected q she gathered up the
sparse remnants to convert into a

But the enjoyment Of the dish had
been sufficient to encourage her
to subject an old and tough fowl

were gratifying to the cook, al
though painful 70 the economist.

In pursuit Of this commendabie
