MOONSHINE RAIDS
CONTINUED

In the light Of recent raids di-
rected against the illicit whis,ley MAX

closed by the good work which
has been accomplished by the reve-
nue. officers it would appear that GER

section and is now far from being a
novelty. The large number of stills
which have been captured during the
past few days, together with the ar
rest of parties for their operation, is
certain to go a long way toward the

Willie Huff Of Sumter. The Maxwell
automobile III which these three men
were riding was seized and found TO
contain gallons OF whiskey, a Win
chester rifle and two Smith e. Wes-
son pistols. These three men con-
Iessed that they owned and operated
a still and took the officers to its To-
cation deep in the swamp about seven
miles from the place at which they
were arrested. The still was found in
tact and complete and in gOOd con-
dltlon. Its capacity was about so gal

were destroyed. Two quarts of whis-
key was found in a small clubhouse at

THIEF PROVES
DESPERATE
Negro Makes Escape
After Firing Upon
Police Officers

After shooting at Officers J. NJ.
Lawrence and w. III. Johnson an un-
identified negro thief made good his
escape. The affair had all the pos
sibilities Of having a far more serious
termination but for the fact that all
shorts fired were from long range.
The occurrence took place at about
$50 on Sunday morning. Officer
Lawrence, stationed at the corner of
Main and Hampton avenue, saw q ne
gro dart out of the alley at the side
of the Planters Mule company and
then very quickly dart back again.
Officer Lawrence states that he had
barely started in the direction of the
man when the negro took a shot at
him. Officer Johnson, on the Liberty
street beat, heard the shot and ran
through Liberty Court in the direc-
ton Of the shot. He arrived lust in
time to see the negro getting over the
fence Of the Planters Mule company
back lot. He then started out after
the negro but circled around so that
he could beat him to Sumter street
Just behind the Y. NJ. G. A. building
the negro and Johnson caught sight
of each other and the negro fired at
johnson, who returned his fire shot
for shot. Johnson fired five times at
the negro and the negro a. like num-
Der of times at Johnson but none Of
the shots Of either hit their mark. The
negro was all the while making good
his retreat and gradually working his
way through the back lots in the block
between Sumter and Washington
streets. Officer Johnson lost sight Of
the negro as he ducked behind the
Jennings-Burkett Motor company
johnson made his way rapidly over 20
Washington street in hopes Of cutting
off the negro's retreat but he never
again saw the negro.
A bundle of silk goods valued at
about $500, the property of Schwartz
Brothers store was found by Officer
Lawrence in the alley just at the
Planters Mule company.
