DRY SQUAD OFFICER IN
 -''' BOX OF GOODS DELIVERED

SEATTLE, Jan. 1-Pandora's box had nothing "on' the one which was delivered to L. c. Lahman, 223 Spring street, late Monday after noon. The famed box is given credit for unloosening all the ills of the world when it was opened but this one had a brand of ill., luck quite all it's own in the form of one K. l.. Webb, police officer detailed to the dry squad.
 Members of the squad found box labeled household goods on pier D. Saturday and took it to the central station, where it was found to con- tain a case of whiskey. Monday af- ternoon the congressman in whose care it was shipped was called to the station and told to take the box to its proper destination.
 Lahman was called to the side walk in front of his real estate of flee on Spring street on the arrival of the case.
 ''Is this your easel" he was asked by the expressman.
 Yes" was the unsuspecting re- ply.
 "That your name on the case?'
 "Yes."
 "All right, you owe me $2.96.'
 The money was paid, and while the silvery jingle was still echoing around the edges of the box the lid suddenly opened, disclosing the presence of said K. l.. Webb, who immediately arrested Lahman and booked him at the station for vio- lation of the state dry laws.
