FUGITIVE TAKEN IN CUSTODY AT HOME OF SISTER (COSTfftl’BD FWOM PAGE ONE) from the gun of a Manistee, Michigan, officer, he escaped with hia wife in the auto which he stole at Muncie about four weeks ago. Hunt had been trailed to Bear Lake, Michigan, north of Manistee, where he was taken into custody by a Manistee deputy sheriff. The three were on their way back to Manistee in the stolen car, when Hunt got out of the car under the pretens,. of repairing the motor. As she deputy started to crawl out he was met with a gun which Hunt had concealed under his coat. Hunt ordered the official to stand by and he and his wife drove away to freedom, amid shots from the offlcor’B gun. Predict Early Arrest. The deputy rushed to the nearest farm house and on an open switch board scut warnings to all neighboring towns mid cross roads to watch for the man. Ixocal men, working on the case, who returned last night, feel certain that Hunt is still in Manistee county, probably visiting '■relatives, and that he is so trapped that it will be only a matter of time until he is captured. AH of his belongings and those of his wife have beetTi(-tufn<'d to this city. Hunt has several relatives in Manistee county and If is probable that lie has fled with hl's wife to one of these homes, which tire being guarded by officials. Sheriff John Baker, and J. W. Rice, of this city, returned last night. A. '■C. Krugh and rwo other relatives of Mis. Hunt returned today, but Hie search is being continued by Michigan [officials, who said that they were ’ certain Hunt could not escape. Registers As E. E. Hunt. The local party sot out last Friday and Wont from this city to Niles. 1 Michigan. The first elite was obtained at Hart. Michigan. Where the wantI cd man had registered as E. E. Hunt and wife, the same name used in this ’ city. From Hart, the trail led to Scottville and from Scottville So' ■ Manistee. The local party, which had ' divided at Niles, met again at Mils--1 kegon and phoned ahead to Manistee, I where Hunt was followed to Bear Lalte and captured. ' It is thought that the girl did not ■ know that Hunt was being trailed t until he was captured at Bear Lake, l-afnd was forced to use a gun to t escape. It is known tha the girl is 1 still with Hunt and it ts probable that i she will disclose Tits identity, know- , Ing now that he is Wanted on several ! charges, as soon as they arrive at a ! town. Several of Hunt's relatives in i Michigan told officials working on the r case that they had seen the man and his Wife the last several days, and it , is thought that he will return, finding himself trapped in a radius of about , 25 or 30 miles, witli only one road . passable, and that one guarded by t police. s o > Wealthy Stockman Has Telephone And Electric r ( Lights In His Mausoleum 1 Terre Haute.

Kulm (flitted Press Staff Correspondent) Shanghai, Chimi, Mar. 2. —(United I ress)—Morphine, cocaine, hero! and other cf the more deadly narcotics are . giadually assuming a position which puts them on a par with opium in the [ total with China’s illicit imports. Reports of large importations of druks are circulated here from time to time, and in many instances they seem I to have a substantial foundation. Even ! a cursory investigation by an untrain- ( ed observer shows that narcotics are , on sale quite openly in many sections I of Shanghai, and the number ci purt chasers in recent years shoWs a steady ; growth. t For the most part, those who retail I morphia illegally find their customers r among the lower classes of the city. . One establishment in the northern section of Shanghai is known to addicts as "Tlie Shot-ln-The-Arm.” It lias a boarded-up shop-front like most of the smaller Chinese ret.iil stores, and i while, nominally a cigarette shoj>, it I is open for real business only at night. The addict approaches the shoi>-f:ont ( and taps on one of the blinds. The small square of wood is shaved open

ifront Inside. No words arc spoken. The •ddtet merely sticks bis arm through the opening, drops twenty cents in ailYer tten cents U. S. currency), nnd an unknown hand gives him an Injection of morphine sulphate. The increase in the morprla trade is duo not so much to any falling-off in the demand for opium as to the leas bulky character of the more potent drips, and the greater profits to be reaped by trading In it. Smugglers hiiive been known to muke fortunes '.on a single trip. I Most of China's drug traffic has its source In Europe, although suaplcions have attached to the practice of tranashipping narcotics from Japan and on (Occasions accuastioiis have been made openly in this conneetinn. The general practice followed by the importers is to send some reliable man or woman to Europe, ostensibly as a tourist. At Paris or Geneva, * package is delivered to him. and. after depositing it stmong his personal effects in his trunk he starts back to China. In the case of an indlvlthwl regarding Whom they have no suspicions, the Chinese Cuetoms pay little attention to personal baggage, and in this numner conslderalde qmntities of'drttgs are smuggled Jn. One American woman h reported to .have been rewarded with a “comtnisI sion" of $20,000 by the smuggling ring ■after making a single trip to Europe. ! Rarely, however, will any individual , try It more than once, as there is nl- . ways the chance of having one's bag--1 gage inspected when one arrives at . Shanghai, and, in the event that the smuggler is detected, he is subject to the criminal statutes of his own coun- ■ try.

Heller was re-elected president of 1 both boards. W. Guy Brown was reelected secretary of the board of guardians and Mrs. Fred Linn was re-elected secretary of the board of I charities.
