Ain't It pretty late for a nifty dame like you to be out alone?" Policewoman Theresa Johnson, heard an expression that sounded very much like the above when she passed Halsted street on North avenue. She turned and looked into the smil ing face of Joseph T. Tragseiler. "As I lire and breathe,' if it's not my friend that I met at" , At this instant Traveller's discourse was Interrupted by a staggering blow in the mouth. As the policewoman fol lowed the first wallop with another U the Jaw, her partner, Agnes Walsh, came toiler assistance, and the two led the mystified masher to a patrol box. While one of the women was calling for the wagon, John Madle, 1624 Cly bourn avenue, attempted to assist Trag seiler to escape. A struggle ensued, but the police women held both men until two police men arrived. . The pair of alleged flirts will appear before Judge Sullivan in the East Chi cago avenue court.

Arkansas has brought action against Mississippi for a great island in the Mississippi in 1848. Aged trees on the Arkansas side proved that part of the island to be the oldest. The trees on the Mississippi side were all young, indicating it to be 'made land.'" Tim ber experts estimated some of the trees are from 100 te ITS years old. Before-, the-war steamboat pilots were among the witnesses. If the supreme court decides the case in favor of Arkansas a big lumber company will have possession of, 1600 acres of valuable timber. If the court decides in favor of Mississippi, numer ous persons, : mostly negroes, will gala possession of the land and timber. El Paso, Mar 20. (X N. S. Pablo Lopes Is paying for some of the hor rors he brought to Santa Tsabel and Columbus. Down In Chihuahua City they are trying to get some information from Villa's chief executioner before he faces the firing squad. Lopes with' out doubt wishes that he had been killed or that he had died in the cave where he dragged . himself shot through both legs. Por Pablo Lopez has information that his captors want, The Information about the location and strength of his chieftain, Pancho Villa, of course. But that is only incidental. Most of all they want the secret of where Pablo Lopee hid the loot he has acquired In his bandit years. Consul Garcia in El Paso says that in one cache alone Lopes has secreted 30 bags of gold dust worth $100,000. They have ways of getting infor mation of that sort in Mexico. The Spaniards years ngo brought the les son of the rack, the white hot brand and other niceties of the Inquisition Have Own XJttle Tortures. To this the Indians added their lit tle torture schemes. Blazing chips Jabbed into superficial, knife stabs is one. Flaying the soles of the feet and splitting finger nails another. But most efficacious is the ant heap. This plan is credited to the Taqui Indiana. It has been used with great success. The legendary industry of the ant has not been dulled In his Mexican relations. So, when information real ly is wanted, the subject is taken to the nearest ant heap. There he is stripped and "staked out." "Staking out" is a process in which the victim is laid flat on his back with his hands and feet stretched out at full ngth and held there with ropes and pegs. The ants are indignant at this dis turbance. Also they are hungry. Usu ally the victim decides to speak with in five minutes. He can be left on the heap 10 minutes with compara tive safety. Twenty minutes will make the torture acute.' Usually half an hour is fatal. The ants work their way into the ears or nostrils and penetrate the brain. In, 24 hours only the skeleton would remain. Ijopes Slaughtered Americans. A friendly trainman brought the news to El Paso of arrival of Pablo Lopez, wounded and weak in Chihua hua. The trainman, who knew him, spoke to Lopez. "I do not fear their firing squad," said Lopes, wearily. "I have been ex pecting to die, anyway. But they think I have gold hidden away. And they will try to find out where it is. I do not care to tell them anything." Half an hour later he was taken into the big penitentiary on outskirts of Chihuahua City. There are cellars and sub-cellars in Chihuahua peniten tiary, and there are ant-heaps every where in Mexico. Pablo Lopes eerrled out Pancho Vil la's orders when he stopped the train at Santa Tsabel and slaughtered Wat son and 17 other Americans. Pablo Lopes also rode in the massacre at Columbus. 11 Boy Dodges Pair of Footpads . at , r at it it at K it ft Saves His First Real Coin TVnt1,1 nntiU 11 vfr nf are of KKA TEflKt Airier nt refit son of A.

Three sixes. 35o, 60c and $1.00. - - of his parents for the first time in his life, to ride home from downtown instead of walking after it was dark, the affair would not have happened. Donald is a good deal of a hustler and a busy young man. As soon as school was out he delivered at a resi dence in St. Johns a bicycle,"" and re ceived $12 in payment for it. On his return from this trip he had to de liver a Journal route. Following this he had to take part in his gymna sium exercises of the Junior members of the T. M. a, A. and to play In a match game of basketball in the eve ning. It was 9 o'clock before he was able to start home. ' Instead of riding he, with his boy companion, Donald Hood, of Fourteenth and Yamhill streets, decided to walk and save carfare. As they were passing the East Mor rison street depot, Donald noticed two men coming toward him. One made a grab for him. He took him roughly by the shoulder and tried to get at his pockets. ' The second man did not Interfere. JDue to his agility and suppleness, . Donald managed to make a twist and get away from the holdup man, and his ability to run faster and toward a number of people who wero coming west on Morrison street saved him the money he had in bis pocket and further harm. Donald Hood- made his escape. The next afternoon his experience came In the form of seeing a man attempt to rob an apartment at Bast Fourteenth and Yamhill streets, going to the po lice and . securing the arrest of the robber. - . , . - This Six-40 Seven-Passenger Chalmers $1450 Detroit7 Quality Tint V - -1 $9,000,000 of these Six-40 Chalmers have been "bought by persons who had intended paying $2,000 for a car They took one look; were surprised a car of such size could be obtained for the money; drove around 10 miles in her and bought. They laid down the astonishingly small sum of $1450 plus the freight, and mentally noted a saying of $550. " For the men who are driving the Six-40 Chalmers today are the kind who have been thinking motor cars in terms of $2,000. They have had more surprises than the price, too. They have found the Six-40 Chalmers to possess more room than any seven passenger car of the day under $2500. v Most persons axe pretty particular about room. I do not know just how to express the ROOM in this car. Dimensions in inches do not tell the story. 1 simply spell the word in capital letters. Then you find later I hare understated the case. Surprise No. 8 that wul stir your emotions is the great big subject of color options. " Now in these days when most cars resemble hearses in their soberness, or the ''back drop" in a new musical comedy in their color excitement, here comes something refreshing. You can get a Six-40 Chalmers in any of these colors : Oriford maroon or Valentine green with hoods to match. Meteor blue with black hood. " Just think that oyer. -And remember this is the only car under $2,000, so far as I have ever learned, that provides for you a color range like this. Colors are getting just. a little more important every day. I ind most men, and particularly most women, have their own ideas about color just like the decorations in a library or a living room. Now there's one more big item about the Six-40 Chalmers. It's too bad I cah't set that down as Surprise No. 4. Some secrets cannot be kept. Nearly everyone knows what a fine beast she is on the road. She certainly can perform. They know that her real name is Six-40 Performance Chalmers. She has a reputation on a hill like Caesar had with his armies. She has a reputation for responsiveness that every traffic cop in America is well aware ot She has, like a great baseball pitcher, "everything on the ball. " She is good at low speeds, good at high speeds, good on the hill, good .on the long march, good on the short hauL She's a fine animal. As fine as any you'll ever run across in 10 parasangs. s I drive her myself. She's my preference. But the big thing, of course, is that men with clear minds and rare judgment have laid down $9,000,000 on her. If you are wise you'll never question success -a success like the Six-40 Chalmers. Ask me .about Chalmers service inspection coupons, negotiable at all Chalmers dealers everywhere. This system is a most impor tant consideration in buying your car. "vT':-'-.
