SENATOR BORAH F0ILS
TWO YOUNG STICK UP
GALS; SAVES WALLET
(Continued from paga one)

Borah looked about him. The
gals were dressed in mems clothes.
In the distance, the senator saw
another nature lover or perhaps
some man taking ashort cut home.
His reasons for being there, how
ever, weren't important to Borah
who pursed his lips.
Out came a whiStle-not just
an ordinary whistle, but a real
two-tonsilled whistle. All this
time, it seems, senator's unwel-
come friends were unbuttoning
his overcoat, his coat, fumbling
with sweaters and other wraps.
The cry of one man in distress
to another frightened the women.
They scampered away before aid
came. Borah buttoned his over
coat, his coat, rearranged his
sweater and went on his way.
The senator isn't accumstomed
to being held up in public parks
or anywhere else for that matter
but he didn't seem worried, ac-
cording to the newspaper account.
He finished his walk, returned
home and said nothing about the
incident. The next day at the
breakfast table he said to Mrs.
Borah:
81 was held up last night by two
women. They didn't get any
thing"
"Oh, Bill" exclaimed, Mrs.
Rorah.

Because her husband, William D.

confined to sanitarium for five
weeks and had her in court as men,

valued at $4,000, cafe valued at
$4,000, bank balance of $4,000
and an undetermined interest in
various produce ventures. She also
asked for the custody of a minor
daughter.

the poor Cinnamon were just VIC
Tins of some white man who had
made them pay through the nose for
this chance and, now that it had
failed, they didn't have chance to
get their money back. They would
simply be bundled on the first ship
leaving for China - and that was
that.
Illegal entry cases are decided
swiftly The Chinese had no defense.
Through an interpreter they jabbered
the usual story. A white man had
promised to get them into the country
for two hundred dollars. They had
come all the way in the stuffy packing
case, were broke and hungry.
Jimmy bought them a meal of rice
and tea out of his own pocket; the
steamship company furnished them
with three return passages in the
steerage of the boat on which the
packing boxes had arrived and Jim
took them out to the ship. He wasn't
taking any chances on their getting
off The last he saw of them, as the
ship steamed out in the Bay, was a
glimpse of three smiling yellow faces
framed in a port-hole near the water
line.

On the way back to the dock,
Jimmy congratulated himself. That
phone call was on the square after
all. A Chinese voice had 'phoned him
the night before tipping him off to the
attempt. A lot of fellows, Jimmy
reasoned, wouldn't have paid any
attention to an anonymous Chinese
tipster. The Chinese were notably
close-mouthed about their own race
but Jimmy was glad he had listened.
True, he had lost some sleep, but it
had been worth it.
On the way home. he stopped at
All Woon's for his laundry. The place
was closed but sign directed Gus
toners to call at Wah Sings next
door. Jimmy went in to the tiny
restaurant Wah Sing greeted him
with a smile and gave him his
laundry.
What happened to WoOn" Jimmy
asked the Oriental.

so much money. Wah Sing seen
unusually talkative.

unconcerned but a horrible suspici
had crept up on him.
Where did he get the money

Wah Sing looked up from his cou
ing board.
"Oh. no." he purred. He say

Inspector Murphy cracked licl

cargo he was after. Those cases, he
knew, had been unloaded the day be-
fore from the Japanese freighter that
lay out there somewhere in the Bay
waiting to clear for the Orient.
But an early morning visitor to the
docks would have been puzzled at the
inspectors strange actions. Instead of
examining the cases with his keen eyes,
Jimmy was walking from box to box
on tiptoe, like boy playing hide
and-seek, and pressing the side of his
face to the rough wet boards. His
features were tense as though he we're
listening.
Suddenly the Inspector Strengthened
up before a piano case 1t was marked
as the rest. but apparently didn't
sound the same. A smile came over
his strained face. His eyes twinkled.
Clever, these Chinese" he mumbled
and, drawing whistle from his pocket,
blew three shrill blasts.
The effect of the whistle was
magical. Two shadowy figures loomed
up out of the fog like ghosts. They
were armed with hammers and crow
bars.
open her up, boys" Jimmy
ordered.
The men went to work and in a
few moments an opening like door
was made in the packing case. The
inspector shot a beam from a pocket
flashlight into the opening and
whistled softly.
There on the blanket-padded floor
of the piano case, huddled together
like sheep and blinking in the light
like cornered animals, lay three
Chinese.
Sorry, boys" Jimmy grinned as he
pulled the frightened Orientals out of
their burrow, but, you see, that's
not the way to enter these United
States"
On the way to the administrative
building, Jimmy hummed a little
song. He didn't feel the slightest
rancor toward his prisoners. On the
contrary; he felt sorry for them. Be-
sides, catching aliens trying to
smuggle their way into the country
was his job And this was another
feather in his official cap. He knew
