He had many serious difficulties In

But all at once his fantasies were
suddenly and rudely dispelled by the
intrusion of realities. Dan had been
walking silently himself in the pine
needles. AS Lennox had wondered at
long ago, he knew how by instinct
and instinctively he practiced this at
tainment as soon as he got out into
the wild. The creature he had heard
was fully one hundred yards distant

But it was rather hard to imagine

far land. The football was much tot

break up a little indoor sport at the
home of Martin Taylor, an aged ne

The fact that Martin had been dis
pensing white lightning" had been
brought to the ears of the officers,
and they set out to break up the busi-
ness. As the three gentlemen ap-
preached the negro's cabin, they saw
4 young negro stationed at the front
gate. He must have given some kind
IF a signal, for as the officers came
up to the house, three negro men
ran out the back door. The officers
entered the cabin and found a quart
bottle on table with about half
pint of whiskey in it. They then in
ICuted a search and discovered a
loose plank on the wall back of Mar
tin's stove. When the plank had
been removed, eight quart bottles of
white lightning" were revealed.
Martin Taylor is an old offender
in more ways than one. He is eighty
rears Of age and has been in police
court several times before. He was
brought before Mayor Glover, Monday
and was fined one hundred
dollars and costs. The mayor stated
