Minneapolis took in 266 cars and
Chicago 1873 cars for the past

"A WELL CONCEALED STILL.
The Hidden Plant of a North

The Hidden Plant of North
Carolina Moonshiner Discov-
cred.
New Light On. c. Special to New York
Times.
The ingenious contrivances of the
moonshiners of the Southern states to
outwit the revenue officials are many
and of the most unique kind. The lat
est was unearthed near this place last
week.
The officers knew that BLOCKADE"
liquor was being manufactured In this
township, but no one had ever seen the
gathered to show that Dick Ray and
his son Mick" and Junius E. Catlett
had been retailing liquor without
license. but the whereabouts of the still
could not be discovered. On the night
of Dec. Z Deputy Collector P. L. Massey,
Deputy Marshals }. B. Holland and
John r. UpehurSt and F. M. Somrell
and Lem" Massey left Raleigh on
raid through this township. They con-
Guided to give the night to the house of
Dick" Ray, which is on bluff about
fifty yards from the Neuse river. 1t is
a large log house, about forty feet
square, with porch running through
the middle, and chimney at both ends.
About daybreak the two Rays and
Catlett were observed In the yard cut
ting and carrying wood into the house,
but there was no sign of a still anywhere
and neither of the men left the premises.
Search was made up and down the
ravineS and branches, but no sign of a
still could be found.
The following night the officers again
surrounded the house and Upehurst was
on the opposite bank of the river. About
sunrise he noticed in the river what ap-
peared to him as vapOr arising from
the water. This was very unusual and
he called the attention of the party and
they made an examination. They found
a pipe running into the river from the
hill and in the direction of Rays house.
BY digging few feet into the hill they
got at the pipe above the water and
found that it was running Stops made at
a whisky still.
The discovery added mystery to the
situation as there was no sign whatever
of still at Rays house. The officers
then decided to search the house. They
were met at the door by the three men
and the women of the family. Assent
to the search was readily given. Every
nook and corner was pried into and not
a drop of liquor could be found nor any
sign of a still. The officers retired for
consultation and decided that they
would remove the passage floor and see
what was under the house.
When the floor had been taken up
everything under 1t presented the APP
pearance of dry ground where the
chickens had roasted and Wallowed in
the dust. Holland crawled around and
finally thought the earth>gave way un-
der him and he removed the dirt and
found plank about four inches under
ground. AS soon as this was discovered
Mick" Ray and Catlett took to the
woods. The latter was caught, but
.Nick'' made good his escape. His
father had been paralyZed and did not
make any attempt to get away. The
planks were removed, cellar nearly as
large as the house was found, and in it
was complete distillery. The smoke
was conveyed to one OF the chimneys,

bound recklessly down the mountains
to greet his rescuers: but alas, only to
see the dreaded Spanish flag Of blood
and gold unfurl, from which in terror he
would flee again to the mountains or
into the tree tops. there to crouch until
his enemies had departed. For Selkirk
was a Scotchman, a subject OF Great
Britain, which was then at war with
Spain, and he knew that it would go
hard with any stray Briton who fell
into the Spaniards' hands.
The narrow ridge where Selkirk
watched is now called "The Saddle"
because at either end of it big rocky
hummock rises like pommel. On one
of these is now a large tablet, with in
Scriptions concentrating Alexander
Selkirk's long and lonely stay on the
island. 1t was placed there in 1868 by
the officers of the British ship Topaz.
This lookout is not by any means the
highest point on the island, for near by
a great mountain towers up 5000 feet
higher, and ends in an inaccessible peak
of rocks of such shape that the ChlllanS
call it Ell YunQue, or the Anvil.
In the days of the penal settlement
free pardon was offered to any convict
who could climb to the top of Ell YunQue,
and many brave fellows tried the des-
perate chance, only to roll down dead
and mangled from some treacherous
crag.
The panorama from Crusoe's lookout
is grand and beautiful. The north side
of the island is wooded with great
pimento and cottonwood trees and
myrtleS, all garlanded with moss and
vines. The southern slopes are bare OF
trees, but mucn covered with a tall
grass resembling oats, OIL which the
wild goats browse in great t1ocks.
For many years, and especially in Sci
kinks time, the island swarmed with
goats. The buccaneers, preyng upon
Spanish commerce along the coast OF
South America, made it their depot for
fresh meat. Then the Spaniards sent
dogs from Peru and Chill, and lett them
on the island to kill the goats, but the
goats separated into small herds and
lived in the inaccessible mountains, SO
that the dogs turned to the poor, help
less seals for food. So Juan Fernandez
is now full of wild dogs as we'll as goats,
but the seals or sealions are becoming
scarce.
Alexander Selbirk spent four years
upon the island entirely alone.
from Valparaiso to Juan Fernandez
island. The round trip is made in six
days. and three Of these may be spent
on the island in fishing and visiting
those lonely but beautiful spots which,
nearly 200 years ago. were the haunts OF
Robinson Crusoe."

enough to keep the vapor from the still

A Big Hunt in Mysore in Which

London News
The elephant "drive" at the Khedda
camp. Mysore, in the presence OF the
viceroy and Lady Lansdowne, together
with the maharajah and his suite and
numerous guests. appears to have been
remarkably successful, sixteen fine wild
elephants, besides four smaller ones,
having been finally driven into the
stockade, in the presence Of this distin-
guished company.
The party being safely placed on
stands erected near the outer gate
stockade, the drive" began with the
blowing of horns and the firing of shots.
Shouts and cries resounded through the
forest. and after an interval the ele-
plants, with uplifted trunks, came
crashing along, tearing in body
Though the jungle In the direction of
the gate. Then the anwieldy animals
suddenly turned back, apparently not
liking the look Of things.
This performance was repeated two
or three times, the elephants always
passing close to the entrance, then rap.
idly retiring. Eventually huge fe-
male, who seemed to take the lead
throughout, cautiously approached the
gate and passed through, followed by
others. AS the last Of the twenty en-
and the gate dropped amid general
cheering and firing Of shots. The inner
gate having been passed in the same
way the capture was complete.
On finding themselves thus impris-
oned the elephants, wild with fright
and excitement, are described as cling
ing together in compact body, pushing
and writhing and crushing each other
with all the strength Of their powerful
frames. The value Of the capture is
estimated at about $4,000 rupees.
