Observation-Disclosures
GAYS MILLS PAIR CAUGHT IN
ACT BY CRAWFORD COUNTY
SHERIFF. GOOD STILL.

jeff and Nell Copas, father and son
residing in Gays Mills, were arrest
ed by Sheriff Dilley of Crawford
county last Monday and taken to Pra.
du Chen. Dilley was assisted by
Messrs. Ho1len and Twining who are
candidates for Office and went along
for practice
Sheriff Dilley threw out a skir-
mlsh line his assistants covering the
TANKS. Messrs. Copas seeing that re-
slstance was futile flew a white flag
and surrendered. On their premises
was found complete outfit for dis
tilling and Sheriff Dilley who recent
ly went to Superior as witness and
saw fifty different types of stills says
that Jeff's and Mells was the best
he had ever seen.
The still was located in bean
patch near the Copus residence. 1t
was made by properly combining a
common wash boiler, syrup pail, fun
mel, piece of hose and a wooden key.
Those who know how to properly
connect these elements can make a
little, small still of their own.
1t is said that the product was dis
tinctly potent to Judge from the num-
Der of luminous jags drifting around
the Saturday and Sunday preceding
the arrest. The stuff had a kick like
an Arkansas mule.
jeff and Nell got off easy by pay
ing fine of 500 and costs each af-
ter pleading guilty to operating a
still. They took the fine in prefer
ence to 80 days in the Crawford coun-
ty hoosegow which from all accounts
is no place for minister's son.
