Uncle Sam, being on his toes to stop smuggling, is always ready to pay Uberally for information of that kind. ‘The customs service paid out $250,- { 000 last year to informers who tipped | off its officers about peopic who were | trying to smuggle things into the | e secretive about the whole business | because of its anxiety to guard the | identity of informers.

Paid $40,000 for Revenge Once there was a young man who worked in a Vienna jewelry house. The proprietor fired him. In revenge, the dismissed cmploye told how the merchant had been smuggling jew- elry into the United States. His scheme was to sell jewels to tourists and guarantee their delivery in the United States without payment of duty, saving purchasers the worry and bother of smuggling. As a result of the boy's information, more than 200 Jewel seizures were made in this coun- try and heavy penalties collected. The boy's share was above $40,000. Another time an American followed a celebrated movie star into a Paris store from mere curiosity. He saw her buy some expensive jewelry and re- ported the purchase on an offchance that she might not declare it on her return to New York.

An informer tipped the New York customs people about one of them and she was heav- ily penalized—paying twice the value of the article.

Someone telephoned from the office, and told Molly. ¥ Red lived away from town, and his telephone was out of order. Molly was not sure that he would want her to go to him, so she sent a note by mes- senger, asking if there was anything she could do. When he received her letter, Red telephoned to say that he had to go to the office.

Van Osten, secretary of the Allied Amusement Industries of California, and, like Gallur, a one- time member of Sousa’s band. That is to say, Gallur is free from the prison walls and regulations. But for several months at least he will be confined to hospitals and sanitariums, with even Dr. L. L. Stanley, San Quentin prison physician, assisting in the fight for his recovery from paraly- sis.

But Red was not to be silenced. “That's the egg that had the nerve to ask you to marry him!” he jibed. “I want to do the right thing,” blus- tered Bob defensively. “I want Rita to have a decent home.” “If Molly wants to get married,” announced Red, “she doesn't have to marry a sap like you. She can marry @ regular guy.” “Sh, Red,” besought Molly. “I mean it,” he said. “You can marry me. You don't think Rita's the only cute kid that’s ever going to get born, do you? Shucks! Rita’s a nice little girl, and all that. But you can't tell how she's going to turn out. My God, she might take after her father! Then what would zen do?” * = Molly tried to laugh. “You're acting like a couple of chil- dren,” she scolded. “Stop your non- sense.” “Nonsense nothing!” he exclaimed. “I'm asking you to marry me. I'd do more than that to save you from a chump like Newton. You know how it was, when mother was alive. I couldn't ask you then.” “But, Red, you funny thing...” “Punny! There's nothing funny about a man asking a girl to marry him, is there? Maybe Newton thinks there is. I guess he thinks guys in my league never ask a girl things like that.” “Molly is already considering a pro- from me,” injected Bob stiffly. “Yeah? Well, give him his answer now, Molly.

He has hundreds of musical compositions that were withheld by prison rulc: His friends among musicians and the American Society of Composers may form a company to publish these. If only a small percentage score the same success as many of Gallur’s numbers—used by bands throughouc the nation—he will be financially in- dependent for life; free to devote his time to musical composition as a la- bor of love.” As it is, Gallur has about $93,000 to his credit, through the sale of music while he was in prison. It was a poignant admixture of gladness and sadness at San Quentin prison as the word flitted about that “The ” was leaving. And even after he limped out througi the long-cl ites in the care of Van Osten and Adjutant Stairs of the Sal- vation Army, Gallur was surrounded again by guards and “trusties,” who filled the tonneau of his auto wit flowers and wished “The Professor” good luck. Gallur was serving a 10-year-to-life sentence for the death of a moncy lender in 1915. Previously he had served a term for forgery. The form- er conviction slowed up efforts to get his release. But while in prison, Gallur conducted the prison band and orchestra. This music was one of the bright spots in the lives of the con- victs. So there was gladness and se.i- ness when he felt.
