"PUPS ARE NOT ALLOWED" XXI UOO Borry, Sahib," the holel clerk suld when lie saw Spit fire and Margot puke their heads out of the basket and blink up at him there In the lobby. "Pups are not allowed In the hotel. Govern ment regulations." "These aren't pups," I sold. "They're kittens, and they won't cause nny trouble. We'll keep them right In our room. They're the quietest and cleanest little fellows you ever saw. They'll be all right" "I cannot help It, Sahib. They cannot bo kept in the hotel." Gingiss picked up the basket and said, "Go ahead and sign for a room, Gen. I'll take the cats to a veterinary and board them until we leave." Thut was on easy solution. There was a small veterinary shop r couple of blocks from the hotel, and the old Englishman who op erated it was familiar with baby leopards. He told us about giving them barley water with their milk as a means of helping digestion; he also unve them their first taste of meat. Tony Morcede and Suzy Q ar rived In Karachi n duy ahead of his original schedule, so we im mediately arranged for train transportation to Bombay. The trip to Bombay is about 700 miles through desert country, and the passenger accommodations are more or less an afterthought, con sisting of one or two sleeping cars cusually added onto a slow, noisy line of freight curs.

As we showed our tickets be' fore climbing aboard, the uni formed inspector looked suspl. ciously ut the big basket I was carrying. "What's in there?" he asked snappishly. "No pup al lowed on the truin, you know." "Pups?" I repeated, laughing as If that were : very funny joke. "What would I doing with pups? This is just our laundry soiled cloth you know." I took hold of the shlrltail that 1 nad left showing from under the new ly ucqulred cover for th: basket, "Best not to get the dirty thing mixed up with the clean!" I ex plained airily and hustled on ahead of Gingiss ond Tony. One of the little devils tucked In there under the dirty shirts was start ing to whine. . . . Before we reached Bombay we had refused live limes to allow anyone, even the conductor, to enter our com partment. QNCE during the night the train stopped on .. siding some dis tance out of the next village. Gingiss und I stepped outside for a few minutes, leaving Tony to guard the cats. The heat and the sand blowing Into the compart ment had been bad enough all day. but the increasingly foul smell of the cuts was making the night really wretched. Stnndlng out tlicro breathing in clean air wus a treat. Gingiss thought it would be a good Ideu to bring the cuts out and air them and their basket and as far as we could figure It out Inter, that must have been when the cats were discov ered. In the morning, about an hour before we were due In Bombay, the smell was ulmost as bad as It had been before the airing, and I knew that we had no chance of J. C.

Forrest Bennett, u putrol man, stopped a motorist. "You don't hove either a state or city license," Bennett told Harvey B. Renahan, a painter. "You're supposed to have both." "I'm not getting any gas so I'm not going to buy a license,' Ren ahnn replied. "Well, then," Bennett said, "what are you operating your cur on?" "Turpentine," was the reply. Booked on a charge of driving without a license, Renahan was released under $20 bond. Unusual Nautical Film at Liberty "Nautical But Nice," hilarious new Warner Bros.

Finally we got an idea. We had noticed that the train always slowed down to a bare crawl as it approached a station, so Gingiss was elected to jump off the train with the cats as soon as we got to the outskirts of town. We emptied the clothes out of two canvas duffle bags, cut holes In their sides, and put the cats into them; Spitfire in one and the two females in the other. Then we opened the compartment door and tossed the basket fetid smellt and all out on the, sand. When the train slowed down to about five miles an hour a few minutes after we entered the city, Gingiss said, "If I'm not at the Delamar Hotel in half an hour you'll find mo in the clink." Then he took the two bags in one hand, swung himself to the ground with the other and was gone. The minute the train stopped there was a pounding on our compartment door. Tony turned the handle and two burly Indian! wearing baggage Inspector s uni forms barged fn. "You got some pups in here!" one or them snout ed. "We got a wire, wnere they at?" "I don't know what you're talk ing about," I said. "You can see for yourself that there aren't any pups in here." 'You got them in a basket." the man said angrily, his flinty brown eyes scanning the little room. Tony growled and his big ham of a hand pushed me to one side as he moved forward, shoulders hunched meriaelngly. "Get out of here, you fools," he said. "The wire was mistaken. You can see that for yourself. Now beat it." The two men looked at each other in bewilderment. They glanced around the compartment again, but there was no sign of pups or basket. At last they shrugged, mumbled their apolo gies, and withdrew. Tony and I, with a show of great Indignation, summoned a porter to handle our bags and stalked from the train.
