TRICKS OF SMUGGIERS. ..

" " " " Z"
Because the city OF Paris exacts
duty Of nearly Sc cents quart on
alcohol brought within its limits there
has arisen class OF professional
smugglers who resort to all manner
OF ingenious tricks to get the precious
fluid past the officers at the barriers
without paying duty. For several
months smugglers disgr.:red as stone
masOns carried wooden beams
thorough the gates without attracting
the attention of the officers on guard
One day just as the last man of the
squad passed the barrier with CHEEKY
Bonjour. comrades" he stumbled over
stone and fell headlong. Fear
ing that the man was hurt. an official
darted forward to help him to his
feet. The fallen man jumped up and
made off. leaving the bean behind
him. Moreover, his companions took
to their heels. The reason for their
flight was soon plain. From one end
of the beam there oozed thin stream
of alcohol. The beam was hollow.
successful type of smuggler is a
smartly blessed man of leisure. I'm
der his spotless waistcoat and white
shirt he carries an india rubber plast-
ron brimful of alcohol. Sometimes
the india rubber receptacle is re-
placed by one of tin. Even a tall
silk hat has been used to conceal
the heavily taxed fluid. 4 smuggler of
the same class has been known to
carry an innocent-looking portfolio
which contained not papers but al
cohol. 4 fashionably dressed wo-
man has carried enough alcohol un-
der her skirts to stock small saloon.
This class of smuggler is very difficult
to catch.
Double-bottomed bottles and other
vessels are common contrivances of
smugglers. In order not to awaken
suspicion they are usually filled with
some beverage, beer or wine. and this
is duly declared by the man in charge
of the vehicle in which they are
carried. At the present time. how
ever, the officers are never deceived by
the double-bottomed bottles nor. for
that matter, by the hollow horse COL
lar, which at one time was "a favorite
dodge of the alcohol smuggler.
During a period of over six months
the customs employees at the various
barriers of Paris saw two men pass
before their offices carrying a very
fine funeral wreath. Naturally they
never asked for duty on such an
article as that. The wreath contained
nearly forty quarts of alcohol. The
smugglers took every precaution
against discovery, never passing
through the same barrier twice run
ming, but the trick was discovered at
last by an inquistive officer.

DIR. REA,
Minneapolis.

In Brussels, Malines and other Bel
gian towns novel method of not only
getting rid of smoke but turning it
to good account has recently been en-
ployed. The smoke is driven by a VEN
tilating fan into filter filled with
porous material, over which a con-
tinuous stream of petroleum, benzine,
alcohol or some liquid hydrocarbon
flows. The result is that the smoke
is entirely suppressed. while the filter
yields a gas of great heating power,
which can be used for domestic pur-
poses and for driving gas engines.
The filtering material itself also be-
comes a good combustible during the
process.

The fire marshall endeavors to learn
the real cause of ever yfire. The PC
lice and firemen are called on to assist
in this work. One explanation of the
inability of the authorities to learn the
causes of the great fires is the COM
plete destruction of all evidence within
the burned area. Only in small fires
is it possible to make effective exam
inatiOn of the surroundings of the
blaze. The great fires remain mys-
teries. and as long as they do 1t is
improbable that material reduction
In the fire loss can be brought about.

the early growth and prosperity of
the city. Mrs. Rea's husband, the late
Mr.. Rea, came here with his family
over twenty years ago and was we'll
known throughout the state as "Rea
the tea man." After his death some
years ago the family continued their
residence here until now. The girls
have grown to womanhood here and
have been great favorites socially and
with their estimable mother will be
much missed by a large circle of
friends, who will send with them to

VIII Guthrie be affected with the samo
astonishing demand foe the new prep
amtions extolled by j.. r. Cooper as has
visited st. Louis AM the leading cities
Of the East?
I The question Is brought forth by the
( fact thai a local druggist has secured
I the agency for the much talked OF prep
aratioas that are producing such a fu-
ror. and about which the newspapers Of
the United States have devoted coll
umns
In fact a discussion Of coopers prep
aations and the unheard Of demand for
them wherever introduced has appeared
In greater part OF an the leading dailies
Of the country.
The recently published statement Of
Mr.. VOLT President OF the woln-wil-
, son Drug Co. Of St. Louis. which ap-
peared IN the Post Dispatch and Globe-
Democrat of that city. would seem to in
dicate that with no exception these prep
aratiGns produced the same results in all
sections regardless OF what pressure Is
brought to bear against the medicines
Mr. Wolns statement Is as follows:
This talk about st. Louis going mad
over Mr. Cooper Is absurd. II his prepa-
rtlons did not do all that Is claimed for
them there would be no demand. Mr..
Cooper has nothing whatever 70 do with
IT,
"rhe idea that his personality has
something TO do with the sale OF his
medicines and that the people OF this
city only imagine that they have been
benefited is too far-fetched to be serl-
ously considered.
zone physician says the people have
'Cooper-mania This may be clever,
hut il certainly Is not true.
Il have sold these preparations on
trial ever since Mr.. Cooper made
my store his headquarters. Any one
can receive whatever they pay for the
preparations Instantly " they are not
satisfied If the people are infatuated
with Mr. Cooper as is claimed. and
therefore buy his medicines. why don't
they come and ask for their money ar
ter they have taken them? out of the
thousands Of bottles We have sold al
most none have been returned.
AS a matter Of fact, St Louis Is no
exception In the immense demand for
these preparations. Before Mr.. Cooper
came to this city. : received letters from
leading druggists throughout the East
telling me that wherever he goes his
preparations are sold almost TO the ex-
clusion Of an others.
Every city IN this country where
these medicines have been introddced
has had the same experience as ST..
Louis This ought 10 be proof-positive
that the people know what they are
about"
In the light OF this statement II will
be interesting TO see how these prepar-
ations are received In Guthrie.
