Confiscate Liquor

Huntsville, January 2s.-(special.)-- The police department of Huntsville gave practical exhibition of the workings of the prohibition law yes- terday when they destroyed about 200 dollars worth of liquors that had been seized in raids on two soft drink stands. A large crowd gathered and witnessed the performance and the gutters were flooded with beer, brandy. wine and whisky. The contraband goods had been stored in the city hall until after the conviction of the owners and then the mayor gave orders for their de- struction. This is the first time any think like this has ever been seen here before.

 Suddenly he stopped.
 This looks unfamiliar" he said. "Where are we?"
 Commander of the faithful" they an- swered, i've do not know. It is outside of our usual run and we have no idea where we are. You know we have no signs at the street corners.''
 "No signs at the corners?' he scowled. That must be remedied. When strang- CTS come to this town I don't want them to think they are in Chicago"
 Railing a passing taxicab he left his luckless guards to find their way home as best they could.

A quaker Girls eyes.

From the Detroit Times.

ing clothes of our own diplomats. To an American, unaccustomed to the pomp and splendor of court life, the gay as- semblage that weaves and whirls about the east room on diplomatic nights reminds one of the brilliantly dressed chorus of a comic opera.
 "Clothes Make the Man"
 An infallible method of estimating a mans worth at White House diplomatic receptions is by his clothes. Not. how ever, by the splendor of his raiment. but by it's soberness in color and cut If dip lomats represent a first-class country their dress is almost human, but if they hail from some place the topog- rapher almost forgets to put on the map their glory beggars description. The less they amount to the more they wear, is common White House saying.
 The Presidents revival of the old cus- tom of furnishing luncheon serves as a memory refresher to some of the older statesmen who can recall the yarns of their grandfathers regarding the Jackson ian administration. According to them the idea of serving refreshments at the White House receptions not only origi- mated with President Andrew Jackson, but came to be considered in bad ordor by that doughty executive. Somebody, so the story goes, presented Jackson with an enormous cheese, which he placed upon the supper table, together with a great bowl of homemade cherry bounce. Each guest that attended the reception took a bit of cheese and helped himself to glass of cherry bounce and loud was the cry of disappointment when 1t was found upon the festal occasion that the luncheon had been discontinued by order of the President. It subsequently leaked out that the sudden termination of presidential hospitality was due to the fact that the smell of cheese permeated the White House for a month.
 Army and Navy Reception
 Next to the diplomatic reception in point of glitter and pomp comes the army and navy reception, when every officer is in full dress uniform and the gold and blue uniform with their red and white insignia stripes make a gorgeous dis play. This affair Is the social event Of great importance to the officers stationed at the capital, and, in fact, to Washing ton society at large. The judicial recep- ton, another of the winter series oi White House entertainments, is more oi quiet gathering than an official affair The grave groups of eminent jurists that people the halls of the White House savoi of the quiet strength that makes the United States respected and feared among world powers and clearly conveys to ar observer an idea of the men of iron who below the surface glitter of gold lace decorations and foreign orders, work in defatlgably for the welfare of the coun try.
