PASSENGERS BOUND FOR
CANADA Will BE WISE
TO GET IDENTIFICATION

While it is not necessary that
Americans travelling from Hawaii to
the mainland by way of Canada Sc
cure passports, it is advisable. how.
ever, that they carry with them a
letter of identification establishing
the fSct that they are citiaens of the
United States, says Albert e. Harris,
federal court clerk.
Clerk Harris says, however. that
he is not in a position to furnish such
letters, and explains that they may
be best secured from the office of the
city and county clerk, or possibly
from the governors office. He adds
that steamship companies have been
sending persons to him for these let
tiers, in spite of the fact that he has
no way of knowing that they are
American citizens.

NOTED MISSOURI
ATTORNEY COMES
FOR VISIT HERE
Judge J. l. Minis of st. Louis
Throws Light on Main
land Conditions

Coming here for a visit OF a month
to the islands-if he likes them
Judge j. l.. Minnis. counsel for the
Wabash railroad, whose home is In St
Louis, Mo, but who is frequently
called to New York City. was an ar
rival by the Matsonia this morning
He is accompanied by Mrs. MINIS. ]
l. MINIS, Jr., and Miss Louise Min
MS, his wife, son and daughter. His
visit is purely for pleasure, he eX
plains.
Questioned regarding affairs on the
mainland, he declared that the rail
reads are utilizing every available
freight car TO meet the immense de-
mand upon them for freight carriers
brought about by the war. The whole
country is prosperous" he adds.
Judge MINIS was at his home in
ST. Louis during the recent race riot
in East St Louis, when many colored
persons were shit down. He Is
averse to discussing the riots Or the
investigation of the charges of COW
ardice of the National Guard lodged
since, but he leaves it plainly to in
terence that the race war receives
his severest censure. Like a loyal
Missourian, he insisted upon explain
ing to his interviewer that East St
Louis is across the river from St
Louis in Illinois, and not in Missouri.
Asked if there was still any feel
ing In Missouri against Senator Bill
Stone for aiding in the filibuster
against the army bill In the closing
days of the last session OF congress,
Judge MINIS answered, with an air
of surprise: You know about that
and Bill out here?" His reply to the
direct question was given with
laugh, when he said: 1t has always
been declared that Bill would be de-
feated every time he has run for Of
flee during the last 20 years-but he
never has"
The Germans are giving US no
trouble in St Louis, although there is
a large Teutonic population. They
may not be very loyal, but they are
keeping num-" he says.
Judge Minnis declared that he be-
neves If the United States had gone
TO war alone with Germany the Ger
mans in the United States would have
been loyal to America, but that their
sympathies had naturally been with
the fatherland during the two and
one-half years when Germany was at
war with European enemies.
Since we had entered the war as
Germany's enemy it was hard for
them to forget the feeling which had
been fostered before" he comments

The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or if the

BY sensation of scalding. stop eating
meat and get about four ounces of Jad

ages at his position, Napoleon Lajoie
finally has landed with a pennant win
ner. And he put it over himself.
Lajoie celebrated his first year as a
minor league manager by winning the
International league pennant for Tor
onto in one of the toughests seasons the
old league ever had known. The going
was so tough the battle was not settled
until two days before the season closed.
Three clubs were in the fight right to
the finish and they all finished with an
average better than $50.
1t is told wherever the baseball lang
uage is spoken that Lajoie came into
the baseball business quite by accident.
and it is declared wherever baseball is
known that Lajoie embodied the super
lative of grace in fielding and hitting
skill. 1t is declared-the master second
baseman was a cab driver when some
one found out that he could bust base
balls with a bat-and put him to work.
AS a second baseman with the old
Cleveland Blues Lajoie's fame mounted
high Originally with Philadelphia in
the National league. he was one of the
players turned over to Cleveland when
the American and National leagues set
tied their differences. He was a ire

a playing record as a big Lacquer that

career back with Philadelphia. but was
in harness only part of the time.

ANNIE WAS QUICK
TO TAKE CHANCE

Annie simply saw her chance and
took It,
She reasoned that not every day in
the year can one pick up three or
four hundred dollars so easily. At
least. so goes the report.
1t seems that she was at 1923 Beach
street Indiana Harbor. INDUCING in a
few delectable rotations with two ad-
gnirers. Marko Vidovich and Robert
Sarcotich.
After a time the supply of beer ran
out Both men insisted on replenish-
ing the stock They went out together
headed for the nearest saloon. Mean
while. it is alleged. Annie casually
peeped into some bureau drawers and
there espied two rolls of money-one
of 1920 belonging to Mako and one
of $3.50 belonging to Robert The in
evitable happened.
Annie. who lives at 1904 Butternut
street, was later searched. Her apart

was searched. Everything possible
was done to find the three hundred and
seventy. but thus far magic has pre-
vailed over science and nothing has
been recovered.
