ran across case down south last
summer that illustrates the simplest
and crudest way of producing alcohol.
/ had been spending some weeks in
central Tennessee and had run down
the Bill Maverick gang of moonshiners
and landed them all in jail-six of
them. They were very smart lot and
for safekeeping they were put in sep
arate cells. About two weeks after
the arrest, when had to return to tes-

and the sheriff said to. me: Henderson

Like enough told him; they
know how. just shift them into new
quarters at dinner, and see what we
can find in their cells
while my prisoners were kept in
another part of the Jail we examined
their cells thoroughly, but there was
not sign of still, nor of any whisky
stored away. So we had to find a
fresh clew. 1t was well-nanaged

found by making inquiries that the
prisoner who oftenest showed the ef-
fects OF drinking was an intelligent
colored man, who had been put in
charge Of the storeroom. His business
was to serve out the raw food to the
cooks and keep the storeroom in order.
That's my mani l said to myself,
and had him locked in his cell and
went into the storeroom. It was just
as expected. He had a dozen fruit
jars full of corn beer SO strong that
about two glasses of it would go to an
old drinkers head. 1t was very easily
made; he had only to make mixture
OF molasses and water, start it fer
menting by adding a little yeast. and
then throw in few handfuls of corn.
Any Pennsylvania farmer will tell YOU
how to make corn beer. Afte ferment-
ing few days, it contained from twelve
to twenty per cent. of alcohol He had
been doing fine business selling this
to the prisoners and had kept himself
well primed. The remedy here was to
appoint new storekeeper who was not

THE DOG HEARD THE TALK.

1t Was q Sentence of Death and He
Drowned Himself.
Mr.. Altman, a we'll known lawyer in
Philadelphia, and at one time attorney
general of Colorado, had a 1avorite big
dog which was between 10 and IA years
old. and was suffering from the in
firmities of old age. Life had ceased
to be u pleasure to him. and the law
yer and his son one day held a long discus
sion at which it wos agreed, after u good
deal of a gument for and against, and with
much pain to both, to put the animal out
of the way. They drew lots, the son lost,
and it was arranged that he should dispose
of the dog on the following day in what
ever manner he considered the most NOR
ciful.
MIR. Altman left the house early the next
morning and staid away all day, not caring
to be around while his old pet was being
put to death. He spent a very miserable
day. When he returned at night and
walked into the dining loom the fl st thing
he saw was old Fido curled up in his
usual place on the hearth and feebly wag-
ging him a welcome. The son ex-
planned that he Ind been unable to hit
upon an appropriate mode of death and
had been obliged to postponed the execution.
Mr.. Altman thereupon announced that he
would take the matter in charge and would
shoot the dog the next morning and have
the affair over with. The next day the son
found a note at his breakfast plate explain
ing that his father had been called ont of
own suddenly and would not return until
morning. Meanwhile Fido snoozed on the
hearth.
One day, about a week later, the question
OF putting the dog ont of the way came up
again. Fido was suffering more than usual
and was evidently going to decay rapidly.
This fact was discussed by Mr.. Altman and
his son. when suddenly the animal pricked
up his ears and seemed to listen for a mo-
mant. Then he staggered to his feet and
walked deliberately out Of the room. He
did not return, and after severa, hours had
passed a search was made. The dog was
found drowned in a ~neighboring pond.
Mr.. Altman and his son say they will
never forgive themselves for discussing tn,
dogs infirmity in his presence.
