The Melting Pot
COMEi TAKE POTIUCK
WITH Us

Since the Indiana prohibition law
became effective last April, making
South Bend technically dry. certain
OF the members of the police depart
ment have been cultivating the sense
OF smell They have become ex-
ceptionally proficient in the use Of
this sense in detecting liquor
one important element Of evil
dence required by Judge Gilmer in
city court in the trlaI OF defendants
charged with intOxication is whether
the smell OF liqsOr was noticed on
the defendants breath.
The other afternoon two well
known detectives from headquarters
were standing in front of the inter
urban station. The car for Elkhart
had just pulled in and was taking
on passengers for that city and in
termediate points. Among the pas
sengers waiting TO get aboard the
car was a man with a hand grip I'M
der his arm.
Now hand grips have become pop
ular with men bringing liquor into
the state. and right away the two
detectives became suspicious. The
fact that the man had his hand grip
under his arm lent a further ele-
ment of his guilt TO the budding
theory of the two detectives that he
was a bootlegger, about 10 take
whisky.
However. the two detectives are
careful officers. They never make
arrests unless they are pretty well
satisfied OF the guilt of the person
upon whom they are about TO lay
the hand Of the law. So. in order
to be sure that the hand grip un-
der the mans arm contained liquor.
they went up behind him and smell
ed Of the hand grip. The odor was
there. II surely smelled like
whisky.
Emboldened by what they believed
TO be prima facia evidence that there
was whisky inside the hand grip
one Of the detectives laid his hand
heavily on the shoulder Of men.
Come with US" he said 10 the
man about 10 board the car.
What's the idea ?" asker the man.
You've got whisky in that grip.
ana YOU are uuutl ar Sotf "'A-N' "a ~
the detective.
Whisky hell" replied the man
with the hand grip. You fellows are
crazy. 7 want to take this car for
Elkhart."
you'll come into the station and
let us examine that grip first de-
clared the detective. firmly convinc-
ed that liquor Of some sort would
be found. His sense Of smell could
not be fooled.
Angrily the man followed them
/ into the baggage room, and submit
ted TO having the grip opened.
The faces Of the two detectives
turned a ROXY red as the cutest little
white fluffy poodle dog imaginable
/ Jumped out OF the grip.
The man was allowed TO proceed
20 Elkhart without further molesta-
ton. But he had missed his car.
