A GREAT FIND.
AshevIlle Scheme for Selling
Liquor OH The Sly.


Several days ago United States Deputy
Marshal J. II. Hampton discovered evil
dencc of blind tiger" in operation at
the joint of dumps" Lane, colorcd, on
Sycamore street. Hampton worked on
the case until yesterday afternoon about
3 o'clock, when search warrant was
sworn out before United States Com
missioner Summcy.
Accompanied BY Deputy Collectors L.
A. Aiken and A. {. Patterson, and Dep
uty Sheriff II. c. Jones, Hampton went
at once to Lanes place and demanded
admission. This was refused, and the
officers proceeded to force the door.
There were two colored men, Dock
McBrayer and Admore Burton, on the
inside. They were arrested and placed
in jail. Lane was arrested this morn
ing, and the trio were taken before
Commissioner Summey. They waived
examination and gave bond in the sum
OF 5000 each to appear at next court.
The mode of operating the business
was unique. A long closed trough con.
nccted two of the rooms of the building.
In this trough was a drawer, which
could be drawn from one room to the
other by means of strings. The man who
thirsted for a drink had only to drop his
money in the drawer, and whistle to the
chemist" in the inner room, when the
money was drawn through, a bottle Of
! liquor exchanged tor the money, and the
/ drawer then sent back to the man in the
outer room.
The plant was fixed for a rushing busi
ness. as the officers captured about three
and halt gallons of whiskev, put up il
pint and halfpint bottles.
