"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. Even
so, the compartments -were all
well filled and it cost us an extra

five rupees to get the conductor
to assure us a compartment to
ourselves.
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

Police were stumped on this one
today. 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.

THE
fooling the inspectors who would
be waiting to inspect everyone'!
baggage at the depot.
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.
