TWO 2O-GALLON STILLS
CAPTURED BY POLICE

The old Adams farms, about three
miles northwest of Bogalusa, proved
to be a regular oasis in the midst of
a Sahara, according to the findings
of the local police department Tues
day, when two well ordered and OPP
Grating stills were picked up, togeth-
er with two gallons of whiskey, a
small quantity of wine and about $50
gallons of mash.
Ben Brown is in Jail on the charge
of operating one 2O-gallon still, and
Mrs. Will Johnson is charged jointly
with her husband with operating the
second still Of same capacity.
Will Johnson risked his life to the
speed Of two perfectly good legs and
the craftsmanship Of Percy Lindsey
was not sufficiently accurate to de-
prive him of his liberty. He is still
at large.
A hot tip was handed to w. A..
Breland and w. NJ. Mitchell Of the
Bogalusa police force Tuesday morn
ing, and with Deputy Sheriff Dyson
Booty, George Thomas and Percy
Lindsey a raid was conducted that
resulted in the capture Of all parties
concerned. At exactly the right min-
ute Will johnson voted in favor of
liberty and with "I'se gone" beat it
for the underbrush. Lindsey sent
a fusiIade after the fugitive, but
Johnson, SO far as the police know,
is still running.
All parties connected with the IL
icit stills are coIored and it is al
legged they were peddling their moon
shine in the camps and to limited
extent in Bogalusa. The local de-
partment believes chain Of stills
has been tapped.

is a question of how much timber are
we growing. There is a great deal Of
idle tree-growing land in this coun-
try on both large and small holdings.
The Great Southern Lumber Com
pany is taking the initiative in an
effort at reproduction on their
lands, and in order to be successful
must have the cooperation of all the
landowners. This problem of repro
duction cannot be solved by one con-
Germ alone, or one individual, or set
of individuals alone; but it requires,
and must have the united, hearty, in
telligent and persistent efforts of all.
Neither can it be worked out in one
or two years, but the young tender
growth, going on ali the time when
once started, lends a mighty encour-
agement to continued effort.

Attend
Inter-CIass Banquet


Fifty-three young people attended
the inter-class banquet Of the Be
rean and Fidelis classes Of the First
Baptist Church, held on the lawn Of
the churchyard Thursday night.
The program rendered was unusu-
ally good, but the feast spread to
feed the inner man had the program
beat all hollow. Roast, salads, en-
trees, ice cream, cake, punch, were
but part of the repast. The young
people who failed to eat supper
Thursday night in anticipation Of the
banquet were not disappointed, the
affair being voted the biggest social
success held by a local church in
many a day. Those present were:
Mr.. and Mrs. 4. w. Talkington,

Prices of Pine Lumber
Rallying After Drop,
Say Orleans Dealers

The prices Of pine lumber, which
have shown a downward tendency
because Of the action Of the Federal
Reserve Bank in restricting the
banks, and in turn the building and
loan associations, in lending money
for building operations, are believed
to be rallying, according to opinions
expressed by New Orleans lumber
men,
the market in New Orleans is said
to save declined as much as 20 per

e bort, some sawnlills IN the South

VENEER MILL WINS
FIRSTsGAME SUNDAY

The Veneer Mill in the colored
league reversed the results at the
City Athletic Park and walloped their
visitors from Picayune, Miss, to the
tune of 1912, and then because they
were in mood for such things,
slammed the Bogalusa Ice Company's
500 per cent for a goal and beat
them 60, the first win by the Veneer
mill in the new league.
The games in the colored league
create a great deal Of interest among
the white citizens as well as the coll
ored, and the brand of ball played at
the Colored Athletic Park is usually
snappy.

JOY must have been short lived, fol-
no sooner had his acceptance been an

ranch, was today examined in the pro,

was adjudged insane and will be sent
to the sanitarium at Orofino. Mr..
jackson is bachelor of about 60
years of age and his mental disturb
ance finds expression in love for a
young woman whom he has not met,
but whose fair features have found
formation and are depicted in blood

as his original name is, Jacobson, has
no relatives in this country and as he
has a little property Judge Nelson will
