Portland-A colossal liquor snug
ling scheme, involving a prominent
Boston liquor firm, was revealed here
when search of a big steel power
boat, driven TO port by heavy seas,
resulted in the seizure OF 756 gallons
of liquor, the largest ever made IN
the state. Two of the five members
of the unnamed crafts crew were
arrested by Sheriff Everett &. Scully,
who led the raid. The arrested men
gave their names as Michael r..
O'Shea of Hyde Park, Mass. and
Charles NJ. Capillo Of East Boston,
Mass. Both claimed to be employed
by Thompson & Co. OF 62 Broad
street, Boston, whose trade stamp
was marked on all the liquor contain
ers found on the boat.
Howard s. Thompson or Hyde
Park, is said by Sheriff Scully TO be
the leader OF the smuggling outflt.
Flying signals of distress, the big
power boat was first seen anchored
off Maiden Cove, just inside Portland
Head. Fishermen reported her plight
and the tug Wawenoc was sent out
by the harbor police to assist the pow
er boat. Fifteen foot seas were
breaking over the boat as the tug
reached It and it was with difficulty
that the boat was towed to the inner
harbor.
Reaching the smooth waters OF the
inner harbor, the five members or the
crew went ashore. To their rescuers
they told a tale OF exhausted food
supply and lack OF gasoline. They said
they were famished and announced
their intention to return later.
Unsuspecting her contraband cargo
the harbcr police visited the power
boat during the crews absence. Litt-
ing the canvas covering they were
startled to find kegs, barrels, and
cases Of liquor stored on the forward
deck. Sheriff Scully was notified, and
a search by him and his deputies re-
vealed the full extent OF the contra
band cargo.

Barber Has Close Shave.

Middleboro-Andrew Nalois, after
a close shave, has gone back to bar
bering. His experience as an anna
teur Houdini was too hair-raising-
When the local Elks sought fea-
ture act for their midway, Nalois OF
fered his services. He obtained two
galvanized cans, filled one with water
and got inside, and then had the sec
ond one closed over him. He said he
would be out in thirty seconds. Then
the committee sent for a plumoer TO
rim the cans apart. Valois revived
lust as someone was psoning for a
pulmotor.
