DRUG CLERK DECEIVED BY
THIRSTY DETECTIVE

Vermillion, S. D., Nov. 3.-WaIter
Johnson, the detective who succeeded
in causing the arrest of Joe Devine at
Wakonda on a charge of illegal liquor
selling, left for parts unknown the
latter part Of last week. He will re-
turn this week to testify in a case
wherein b. +. Waterman, a local drug
gist, is the defendant.
While hanging around town last
week, the detective dropped into the
Waterman drug store and called for a
glass of cocoa cola, and asked the clerk
who served him ii h couldn't out a
stick" in 1t. The clerk refused and
informed the detective that it was
strictly against the orders to sell LIQUOR
to anyone. But the detective was not
to be put off that easy. He engaged
the clerk j N conversation, which finally
dr1fted to places n events in Minne-
apolis. The drug clerk, apparently
laundering for news from dear old
Minneapolis, became quite interested
in n detectives narrative and finally
his new friend behind the pre-
scription counter, where, according TIC
the detectives story. they took a drink.
Later the stranger ordered another, and
then, to get away strong with the
evidence he was after, purchased q
bottle Of whfskey. MI. Waterman was
absent in Sioux City at the time of the
occurrence.
The case will come up In the adj
