BRANDY STILL CAPTURED.
Irregularities at Sid Horizons Juicery
Near Wakefield

Deputy Collector j =. III. Adams yes
terday captured 125-gallon registered
brandy still and the owner thereof near
Wakefield.
Irregularities We're the cause of Sidney
L. Horizons trouble. He made much
apple brandy last fall, it was supposed,
but when he made returns he reported
only twenty-six gallons
This the revenue men thought rather
funny. so they sent Mr.. Adams down to
investigate. Mr.. Horton stuck to his
story. Adams questioned him closely,
then he admitted having another twenty
eight gallon cask.
OF course after that nothing would do
hut search. Horton protested his in
nocence and the uselessness of the trou-
BILE taken in the search. Adams went
into the barn and there saw lot of
goods boxes piled around.
3 You've ruined me-" exclaimed HoT-
ton. as Adams lifted one up, for under
it was another cask of brandy. Others
were found until the find amounted TO
10 gallons.
Horton and his still were brought TO
Raleigh last night and he will have a
hearing this morning before Commits
sioner Nichols.

SUNDAY MORNING FIRE.

The alarm at 220 O'Clock Sunday
morning from box 36 was for "a fire in u
back room op the second floor Of wood
en- house at l06 Prebls street, owned by
Mrs Corrin. OF Deer Isle, Me. and oc-
cupied by Edward Nixon and Mrs. f. e.
Colwell The house is used as lodging
house with restaurant down stairs The
room in which the iire occurred was occu-
pied last night by man whose name
MIR. Nixon did not know. He awoke TO
find the room in flames, and his cries
alarmed Mr.. Nixon who ct once ran to
Monument square and got Policemen
Pillsbury to telephone for the chemical
engine. Patrulmau Ed Smith saw that
the house was threatened and pulled the
alarm in when he reached the scene of
the fire The firemen made quick work
of the blaze. The loss to the building
will be slight. 1t is fully covered by in
surance, so 1t was said. Very little wat
er was used 50 that the loss TO the ocou-
pants of the house will be small. The
lire is supposed to have caught from
the caIelessness of the man who occupied
the room and who could not be found
after theytlIe was discovered.
