But immigration authorities went one better, all because Parra made the mis take o entering Mexico. He was stop ped at the border, ana Tuesday was formally deported as an alien. On en tering the United States from Mexico he lost the legal protection, which would hold in his being deported from the United States. MAX TO BE TORXED OVER TO .TBVADA OFFICERS.
