] As part of the program by which sew
eral places in Windsor county were raided

search OF the premises revealed the pres
ence Of about Is gallons of various kinds
/ Of intoxicants II was seized and Z. j..
| Pippin and Guy Cole were arrested, charged

Judge Watson handed down an interest
I ing decision al Burlington last week in a
chancery case in which the state sought to
convict certain hotel keepers i'm Milton Of
violatingan Injunction by selling Uno beer.
This brand Is made by the Suffolk Brewing
Z Co. OF Boston. Fred j. Iaber, manager Of
/ the company, was one OF the witnesses. lie
said he originated the formula for Uno
/ beer and had manufactured it for fifteen
years; that Uno is a compound of hop eX-
/ tract, albumen, syrup, yeast and tlavoring
extracts. Ii is mixed together to give the
flavor, sterilized TO prevent fermentation
and charged with carbonic acid gas. lie
said it took many days to manufacture
lager beer, but only 26 hours to make Uno
and that it was made expressly to meet the
requirements of the prohibition laws. An
expert in chemistry also testified, saying
he had made examinations of samples of
Uno beer and found that they contained
only 2.15 "a alchohol. The case against the
respondents was dismissed by Judge Wat
SON John Keeher AZ this town has sold
this beer for many years.
Circumstances developed Tuesday show
! ing that the lookup in the town hall is not
so impenetraDle as had been supposed.
| This news may come as a shock to some of
the tax payers, for the people of Bethel
had supposed when they paid out several
| hundred dollars for a lookup several years
ago that they had bought cage that
would hold all criminals that might be
put therein. Ii seems that in the liquor
raid Saturday evening probable case was
| found against one Five Gallon Keg de
Whiskey on a charge Of being found with
intent Of being sold contrary to statute.
| For safe keeping until the hearing, Mr.. de
Whiskey was locked up in the town cage
in the basement OF the town hall. Tues
day morning when Sheriff Tinkham came
TO remove the culprit for the hearing, it
was found that some person, evidently
partial to Mr.. de Whiskey, had inserted
J an augur between the bars of the cage,
/ bored a hole and siphoned out about three
fourths OF the culprit. Although the fin
ger Of suspicion is pointed strongly
| towards several of Mr.. de Whiskey's
friends who were seen lettering in the vi
cinity, yet there is no direct evidence.
