JnUc U vtldoera?' if Ann imkk MOOXSIIIXKItH When a Shard rock miner turns moonshiner, he's" going to have a pretty elaborate layout for. his distilling apparatus. A pair of copper miners, tired of layoffs and lower wages when the price of. copper w got' down around 12 cents, a pound, decided to get more out of a sheet of cop per, properly shaped, in a month than they could get out of mining it in a year. Sheriff wi' T. "Skeets? Witt of Greenlee county had been pretty hard on the ' white male makers, however, Nq ordinary still would escape his eagle eye for a week. So there was established down on the bank of. the Gila river about twenty miles below Clifton in the most mountainous county In Arizona, probably tbe most el aborate moonshine 'outfit ever constructed, one that did the miner's previous occupation proud. First, they sank a shaft for 32 feet, 'down from a bluff, to a-.few feet .above the river level j fifty feet from its shore. Next tbey led a tunnel out for twenty feet on the 22 foot, level, big enough to hold thirty men. ,-; - Here tbey vet up their distilling apparatus. The still held 80 gal lons at one run. The cooling coil was in. a barrel. A cistern, pump brought water from the "river, which seeped through into a pit on the. 30-foot levels and it was emptied - by ... a pipe - running doned-ranch house nearby, r where he accosted Ben Black; : ' "I've comft tor' that 'i " still. Ben.-Want-ta' take mo over to It, or hav I got. to get out'and hunt! ui tne tracks and follow themX I've - got " some dynamite , and 1 guess 'I ean blow em out.'!,". ' Skeets tan shame &. bloodhound, on tracking a man through. Aft zona terain, where the i layman would' see no indication whatever of anyone's passing, so Ben gave u P. ; ' . ' In the tanne! they found 40 gallons of moonshine, just run off, and confiscated it. , . "You'll, leave tbe boys their tunnel, won't yon 1 sheriff" asked black who had seen the two mint er-moonshiners flee bver the mountains pust as Skeet's'Stude baker began coming up the last narow trail. Msure,' replied keets; "I'll do better than that; I'll make it big ger for-them, and give them some Ventilation too, So he set fifty pounds of dy namite at the s bottom ': of the main shaft, carefully replaced! the cover; aTid' touched : It off . ' Frag ments of the mash' barrels sailed half a mile out of the shaft as though out of a gun, and the tunnel is now a minature canyon. "Air will be better; down there now, and they won't have to" put In ventilating fans," explained B:jRlfedjfalor GenerallRobert C. Davis, adjutant .general io r'mj announced An aeport made pitbllc today, on tno nanunng oi I he-huge clerical job, ".He added IbaiJ under s thel -.aw the door , re mained open for" accepting appli cations up "to January 1. 1928. Skeets, who must have his joke,1 through the. earth into the river. all below the ground. The mouth of the tunnel , was finished with cement, with a board, trap door covered iwth soil and scrub mesquite. Men could work' "down 'there with the door shut for a week at a time. The still was heated , by , a .gasoline pipe coming from a tank sunk in the ground and covered with mes quite; .brush. It '-.was,, completely hidden . ; , t"y But; Skeels Witt lieard of It when the flrst run-off. was made. A light' rain had fallen the night before,' and '.Skeets knew that If any trackfl.'wOuld show plainly fr the sandy arroyas hear the- river.' : He learned generally the loca tion,! and slipped down there be fore the warning' could come that the Studebaker was out. For when Skeets starts' out in that ear, every bad man lies low; no one knows where it' will show up and not evenj the Greenlee's 12, 000 . foot mountains can provide terrain which it won't cover. v.
