HUGE LIQUOR CACHE
UNDER BAl RAIDED
"
Four hundred and forty-six gallons
of raisin moonshine whisky, valued
between J17.000 and J20.000, were un
covered by deputies from the office
of Sheriff Hurlburt yesterday after
noon in a cache dug- beneath a barn
west of Linnton the richest haul,
cay the officers, of home-manufactured
contraband made locally- since
the advent of prohibition. . Robert
Beovich and Joseph Beovich, whose
ostensible occupation was the raising
of hogs, were the owners of this
mammoth blind pig, according to the
arresting- deputies, who also took into
custody Sis Burger, a farmer under
whose barn the storeroom was found.
The ranch where the liquor was un
earthed is about a mile and a half
from tho Germantown - Springfield
road crossing on the Springfield road,
deputies participating in the raid
from Sheriff Hurlburt's- office were
Christofferson. Schirmer, Flaherty
and Kendall. They were assisted by
IVputy Sheriff William McQuillan of
Hillsboro, "Washington county. The
booze was within the limits of Mult
nomah county.
Stock Stored I. nut Summer.
All of the. stock found has been
stored away since last summer and
a large amount has been disposed of
eince October, according to Deputy
Sheriff Christofferson, leader of the
raid. At that time an investigation
led close to the Beovich place, but
without results. Information now tn
the hands of the sheriff's office is that
the still was operated throughout the
summer but destroyed about October
1. when the revenue officers and
deputy sheriffs began to get "warm."
The Beovich brothers, who are 27
and 28 years of age and natives of
Austria, rented five acres of land from
Burger, a Hungarian farmer of 54
years, and are said to have arranged
for the excavation of a storeroom
under his barn. The younger men
live nearby on a small hog ranch.
Men Face Federal Charges.
The haul consisted of six 54-gallon
barrels of whisky, one 32-gallon bar
rel and 30 cases having 12 quart bot
tles in a case. The six largest bar
rels were destroyed on the premises
because of lack of transportation, but
the remainder of tho stock was
brought to the county jail as evidence
The bottled goods were chiefly
labeled "California Brandy' and. thi
corks were sealed with a green Imi
tution of the revenue seal, bearing
the words, reminiscent of the Baker
brothers, '"aged in the wood," and the
announcement "100 proof."
Federal as well as state charges
will be filedi against the three men
who have been doing, according to
the officers, a flourishing business in
wet goods and had a stock on hand
guaranteed to last out the winter,
barring official interruption of trade.

"T was in bad shape when my wife
ordered the first bottle of Tanlac
from El Paso, Tex.," writes Harry E.
SScott of Dragoon. Ariz., in telling of
his remarkable recovery.
Mr. Scott's voluntary statement has
tSe true ring of sincerity and grati
tude, and is unquestionably one of
the most remarkable ever given in
connection with a proprietary med
icine. Mr. Scott's letter was addressed to
C F. Moss, a well-known druggist of
Hanson, Ariz., who has the Tanlac
agency for that town, and was for
warded by Mr. Moss to the Tanlac
offices at Atlanta. His letter follows:
Dragoon, Ariz.
Mr. C. F. Moss, Benson, Ariz.
Dear Sir As you expressed a desire
to hear more about my case, I will try
and tell' you part of it. I was down
and out nearly all the time for two
years with rheumatism and stomach
trouble. I guess I have taken a barrel
of medicines, internally and exter
nally. I also went to Hot Springs,
and out of all that was ever done, I
never got over one week's relief at
time.
After going down to 116 pound
which' is very light for a six-footer I
kept getting worse until I had no de
sire to eat and couldn t sleep more
than two hours at night.
At last my wife ordered a bottle of
Tanlac from the druggist at El Paso,
Tex., which was the nearest place we
could get it at that time. One even
ing about four days after I began tak
ing Tanlac, I ate a fair meal and en
Joyed it, the first in many months.
Ey tho time I had taken half of the
first bottle I thought I had a good
appetite. Put when 1 finished the sec
ond bottle I could hardly eat enough
to satisfy me. Well, I have finished
my ninth bottle, have gained eighteen
pounds and am back on the job every
day.
Mrs. Scott and myself are willing
to go before a notary and make affl
davit as to the truth of every state
Eicnt in this letter, which you are at
liberty to publish and use for the ben
fit of others. Yours ver v trulv,
(Signed) . HARRY B. SCOTT.
Accompanying the above was a let
trr addressed to the Tanlac offices,
Atlanta, Ga., referring in the highes
terms to Mr. Scott and his wife, and
Faying- they were ready at any time to
go before a notary public and swear
that laniac is the. only medicine h
bad ever taken that had any effect
on his rheumatism and stomach trou
ble.

SPECTACULAR even In these days
of the ultra unusual, permeated
with wit and humor which is at
once spontaneous and effective, and
enacted by a group of artists remark
ably adapted to the portrayal of the
characters in "The Admirable Crich
ton," it is no wonder that the screen
version, "Male and Female," is at
tracting such attention at the Colum
bia theater.
Since its opening at the Columbia
last Saturday there has been scarcely
a time during the hours in which
the theater is open to the public that
lines of waiting persons, eager to
stand in line an hour if necessary,
have not been waiting outside the
door. At times these lines have been
two and three deep and have reached
for more than a block. No other pic
ture during the year 1919 is said to
have had a "popularity" equal to the
record which "Male and Female" has
already established.
It is a vastly different Thomas
Meighan that plays in "Male and Fe
male." His work does not predominate
to the same extent as in "The Miracle
Man," but it is as complete, as sin
cere and as likeable. Gloria Swanson
Is surprisingly good.

Disparaging Them the While,
Tlptoea Quietly By.
EVERT good story has a sequel.
Likewise, it's the man who waits
to register the last laugh who geta
the big applause.
On Saturday last Captain John T.
Moore, commanding the day relief of
the police bureau, telephoned his son,
Raymond G. Moore, who owns an
apple ranch at Underwood, Wash.:.
"Can you spare a box of apples for
my boys?"
"Sure! Can yob send a car out for
them? All right. They can take 'em
off the back porch." It was all right
with Raymond.
Captain Moore turned to his desk
sergeant.
"Tell some of the boy. they can get
a box of apples at 799 Cleveland ave
nue." he directed. ''They'll find 'em
on the back porch."
The desk sergeant beckoned to a
department driver.
"Take a run out to 799 Cleveland
avenue and get a box of apples off
the back porch."
Puszled were the police officers as
the police car ran out to Cleveland
avenue. Was the desk sergeant aid
ing and abetting apple thieves Oh,
well, all right, so long as they1 got In
on the apples. And the apples were
there.
A whisper and stir followed the ar
rival of the apples at the police sta
tion. Finally a wag, apple in hand,
was inspired to comment on the qual
ity of the fruit to Captain Moore.
"Bet these beat the apples on that
wonderful Moore ranch up the Colum
bia," suggested the bluecoat. Thus
the captain found that the identity of
the donor was a secret. But he spake
not. for the captain is a canny man and
modest withal. It was not till Ray
mond G. Moore dropped an illuminat
ing remark yesterday that the relief
earned that the apples were the gift
the captain s son.
