Coblenz, aided by the German govern
ment, were opened recently for &C

Der compared with 430001 in the pre-
yious fiscal year and is more than
twice the estimate of 100000 which
Mr. Davis makes for this fiscal year
under the operation of the restriction
act
More than one-fourth of the aliens
admitted last year were Italians, the
number being 222,260 as compared
with 95,145 in the fiscal year of 1920.

ing numbered 119,036.

increase over the preceding year, hut

from 1858 in 1920 to 1855 in 1921.
In Hawaii Japanese arrivals showed a
slight increase, with a total of 1889.
The number of aliens in general de-
ported, the report shows, showed a
considerable increase, with a total OF

smuggling and surreptitous entry of
aliens. The seaman route is a favor

sailors and manage to disappear in the
depths of the country. Many others
arrive at Mexican ports and sneak
across the border. Several hundreds

thought the only effective means OF
breaking this practice

Fort Chester, N. Y.-Convicted of
the theft of yelIow-and-white kitten
from the doorstep of Charles A.
Thompson's cafe at King and Adee
streets, Joseph Figan, twenty-six years
or age, assistant chef at the Palace
restaurant, was fined $40 in the police
court by Magistrate John l.. Coward.
Although Mr.. Thompson said it was
the principle Of the thing and not the
value of the cat that counted, the cats
valuation was fixed at $40 for the pur-
pose of prosecuting the case against
the cook.
Mr.. Thompson testified that about
$3.50 O'Clock Sunday morning he saw
Ffgan walking toward the Palace res
taurant with the kitten in his hand.
When he demanded that he return it,
tigan said that he had dropped it ''in
the alley and did not know what had
become of it. When he made a sub
seQuent visit to the kitchen of the res
taurant he found Figan turning tur-
key and rib roast over in a big
pan with the aid of a long tined fork.
Mr.. Thompson said that the chef
threatened to jab the utensil into him
if he did not go away and stop both

A pretty young Swede and an Ameri.
can girl were crossing the Ellipse, re-
gardless of a lettered warning to keep
off the grass. A bicycle policeman
wheeled up TO ask If they couldn't see
the sign, whereupon the American
whispered to the other to answer him
in Swedish. The little foreigner burst
forth in excited mystifying language
and the other girl Clipped in with the
few words of her own acquired stock.
Realizing the impossibility Of enforc-
ing the law on two young and attrac-
tive aliens, the officer not only per-
mitted them the right of way but
took the trouble to point out the monu-
ment government buildings and like
public views.
When she got the chance the Ameri-
can girl asked her friend what she had
said to the policeman-and that up
