the terrible condition of Johnstown's
water. Moonshine Is banned. Sa
loons are jammed, -while soft, drink
parlors did a land office business in
real beer.
Ileal beer, ice cold and frothy, was
sold in the hotels and saloons at ten
cents a glass. Believing the (mayor's
order too kgood to last, hundreds of
happy natives rushed to the bars be
fore breakfast to quench their sud
den thirst. Many workers, having
drunk their breakfast, declared a hol
iday and made the rounds as in the
day of yore. Breweries are working
overtime to supply the ' demand.
. Johnstown's second "flood" makes the
. city proUablsr the wettest town in the
country today. , '

Moonshiner's Still
In Oregon Woods
SALEM, Ore., Aug. 19. (U. P.)
This pre-national prohibition state Is
now conducting tho most successful
moonshine war In Its history, ac
cording to Dr. J. A. Linville, state
prohibition director. United States
army planes flying daily from Eu
geno and patrolling forests of the
state to prevent destruction 6y fire,
are serving a two-fold purpose.
They detect forest fires, and they
locate moonshiners cabins. Smoke
does the trick in both cases.
Moonshiners, who are of a retiring
and modest disposition, cxofficlo, so
to speak, seek tiie most isolated and
inaccessible . spots In the state to
pursue their nefarious and law
breaking work. ' Heretofore' stills so
located have been difficult to locate.
They simmered and smoked, merrily
condensing far from tho maddening
crowd s ignoble strife, and turned
out mule-taming stuff by the hogs
head, i ' .
But with tho planes stuttering
overhead things are not what they
have been. The observer sees smoke.
It may be Just a curling wisp, or It
may be a funnel denoting a fire of
considerable size. The former may be
a still, and the latter is certainly
burning timber. Both are reported,
the location and the size of the fire
estimated by the airman. Officers,
either peace, prohibition,, state, coun
ty, or whatnot, or forest fangers, im
mediately Investigate. If the smoke
comes from a forest blaze it Is put
out; if the smoke comes from a still,
said still is kicked down the moun
tain side and its tendors are put in.
It's a merry game, with tho boot
leggers playing the losing end.

One of the men told them thut they
nt-ru going "hog wild" on provisions,
but some of the others didn't have a
whole lot of confidence in their abil
ity to make any good kills themselves,
so . they Insisted on fortifying them
selves with plenty of good things to
eat before they got away from a handy
j base of supplies, ,
jiere is ine list or tne eats tins

of baconio dozen eurs of corn on the
