is tucked away up a narrow old-faBh-loned

called Wine Office Court off Fleet
street.
It Is Tondon's oldest Inn It was re
built and renovated In 1667, a Jittle over
"250 years ago and It has never been
altered since that time. It is famous
for its historic associations, but the
thing that brings Its guests back Is
its cooking. They make a pudding
which for two centuries or more has
been famous. It is a huge affair in

Woman Employe of
Governor's Office
Confiscates Liquor
A suitcase, containing 48 pints of
whiskey was turned over to the police
Thursday morning by Mrs. H. S. Upton
of 401 Syracuse street, an employe of
the governor's office. According to
Mrs. Upton, an unknown bootlegger
placed the suitcase beneath her berth
on train 16, which arrives in Portland
at 9 :20 a nw
Awakening Thursday morning, she dis
covered the extra suitcase and, on at
tempting to move it, found that it was'!
very heavy. A few minutes later, the
owner, "who called himself John Brown,
claimed it, but Mrs. Upton, suspicious
of his actions, refused to give it up un
til she arrived in Portland. At the
Union station the owner failed to make

Old Furniture Remains
Tts quaint old benches. Its blackened
tables, Its sanded floods, its tiny dia
mond window ' paries in their .leaded
frames all give added zest and charm
to the old Inn. It is interesting to
look over their old leather bound guest
books. You will find the signature of
Asqulth and Carson, Holdane and Hose-

' well known statesmen you will see the
i familiar signature of Sir Arthur Conan

In an earlier day In the original
' Cheshire Cheese, Shakespeare and Ben
Johnson and many another of their
' day met but that was before the Che-
shire Cheese was rebuilt in 1667. The
I Cheshire Cheese that you now visit is
, unchanged from the days when Dr.
Johnson Herrlok and Oliver Goldsmith
and their cronies used to meet here.
Just across the narrow court and 35
or 40 feet further alonj;, Oliver Gold
smith had his lodgings and there he
wrote "The Vicar of Wakefield." They
preserve many old Johnsonian relics
here. The doctor's favorite chair, the
huge, old, blue punch howls, (he old
punch glasses, the badgeplate and the
blue willow pattern platters and dishes
and the long-stemmed church warden
clay pipes.
Jobnaon of Dictionary Fame
Dr. Johnson, the former lexicographer,
lived at first at No. 1 Inner Temple
Iane. "From 1765 to 1776 he lived n
Johnson's court at No. 7. In 1776 he
moved to No. 8 Bolt .court. The old
house at No. 17 Gouich square where his
wife died in 1752 and when in 1755 he
finished the dictionary, still stands much
as it was when the learned doctor was
its tenant.
