A man at one of the hotels the other
night told an interesting story of how
the freighter« of the far west used to
supply tlit niselves with whisky, says
the Louisville Courier-Journal. He
said that some yenrs ago when till
freight was hauled in wagons, lie hap
pened to make a trip of several hun
dred mile« with a train of wagons car
rying merchandise to remote stations.
Nearly every wagon contained one or
more barrels of w hisky.
“The fit st night out 1 noticed," said
he, “great activity around the whisky
barrels. The wagons each had a
hatchet mid a gimlet. They would
knock up a hoop, bore a hole, draw all
the whisky they wanted, then put
aliout us much fine gravel in the bat re'
as they hnd draw n out whisky, drive a
plug in the hole and put the hoop back
in place.
“I lettered afterward that the bar
rels were weighed and the whisky
tested Isefore it vva» turned over to the
freighters, and that when it arrived ut
its destination it was again weighed
and tested. Tbe gravel supplied the
weight end bulk and the quantity re
mained the same, and this is why it
was used instead of water to supply the
of what nad been taken out.”
