NO MORE CORDIALS
Chief Finley Finds Brandy Drops Be-
ing Sold, Clamps on Lid

Chief Finley stumbled on the fact,
Or rather bit onto the fact that bran
dy drops or cordials as they are vari-
ously known, and which are under the
ban in Vermont, are being sold in
this city by some dealers in confcc-
tiOnary.
Monday, the chief was in d certain
store in town and in conversing with
a man who had just made a purchase
Of CONNECTIONS. AS a matter of course
the purchaser presented the bag to
Mr.. Finley, who helped himself to the
contents.
Placing the chocolate coated candy
in his mouth, the chief shut his treeth,
the chief smiled, but whether at the
flavor of the cordial or over the
thought that he had discovered an in
fringem cnt on the law, is not known
OF being quite sure of his ground the
chief refraincd from clamping on the
lid there, but only Il short time elapsed
before he found that brandy filed
CONNECTIONS could be bought elsewhere,
and imm ediately the lid was clampcd
and locked.
1t is doubtful if the party who first
treated Mr. Finley is aware that hc
had cut off his own supply of favoritc
candy. Further more no one has APP
peared that knows how the chief knew
that it was brandy on the interior.
