SeviTnl men sighed sadly this
morning when they watched
with hated breath the disappear
a nee of about five gallons of
moonshine whiskey :n front of

No, this particular batch, of
moonshine did not burn anyone's
throat. That may be an expla
nation for the sighs. It was the
stuff that was secured by Deputy
Sheriff Kidgwny last night when
he raided the house of Ed Baker
where J, K. "lllackie" Allen was
placed under arrest.
This. morning Allen was taken
before Judge 1. M. Schsnnep
where he was fined $',o. Fol
lowing his trial, the contiahrand
li'inor was taken out on the
streetand In the presence of (he
members of the court, the slier
Iff's force and others who hid
heard of the procedlnns. the
moonshine was poured into
the i-ewer.
Just lo satisfy himself that
there was-alcohol in the hioon
shine, Deputy District Attorney
C. Z. itnndull touched a match to
it and It burned fiercely.
