BOOZE CHECKED IN
 FROM L. A. ON TICKET
(From Sundays Daily

When Mike Marchella started to load trunk onto his express wagon yesterday, he prccipitated an inquiry into the origin and ownership of the contents of said trunk, that lead him right into the sheriff's office, where he got lesson in sleuthing. Marchella was approached by a deputy, who de- manded permission to put the trunk through the usual official process of diagnosing its contents.
 The result of the preliminary or re- .connaissance work was such as to lead the officer to desire the presence of the trunk at the carcel So, it was taken there and its contents subjected to a more exacting scrutiny. This revealed 19 quarts and some odd pints of sort of dark mahogany colored liquor, bearing labels, which if they do not lie, indicate the presence of headaches.
 The result of the find was that Mar chella was marched over to Justice of the Peace McLane's office and arrang- ed into a sub-vice-deputy deputy sheriff. He was then informed that his duty under his new commission was to assist the peace officers in To- eating the owner-or at least the claimant of the trunk, which was shipped from Los Angeles on a through ticket At late hour last night, Marchclla and his official guide had failed to locate the owner of the ticket.
