EVEN SMELL LEADS
TO WHISKEY SEIZURES

Portland Me, Feb. 21-Deputy Sher-
if Doughty's keen sense of smell en-
abled him to ferret out a new travel
ing whiskey hide when he was watch
ing for booze shipments at the Boston
boat. Three trunks were being loaded
on a local transportation company's
jigger. Two of them were tagged to
Waterville and the third, a steamer
trunk, to this city. Deputy Doughty
took a sniff around the edges of the
latter and got a Whit of the old hum
dred proof. Then he opened her up
and found 70 pints of whiskey snugly
slowed inside. The trunk is still at the
freight shed and perhaps, just per-
haps. the owner can have it by prov
ing property after consulting Mr..
Doughty.
Monday afternoon Deputies Paine
and Doughty discovered four half
pints in an old paper bag concealed
beneath the straw in a street scrap
ing machine belonging to a local con-
Germ, and standing in Bradbury court.
1t was probably left there by some
hunters, for it was labeled "Old Buck
Horn"
