BOOZE SLEUTHS USING
LODGE SIGNS, is REPORT

ATLANTA, May 26.-Use Of Sc
cret fraternal grips and passwords to
obtain the confidence of persons who
could supply them with alcoholic re-
freshments is the latest accusation
to be brought against federal pro-
hibition enforcement officers in this
city.
C. H. Parks, operating under the
federal enforcement director here,
was yesterday accused before U. s..
Commissioner Carter of having re-
sorted to these despicable methods"
to inveigle into his confidence the
men he was seeking to put behind
the bars.
w. Paul Carpenter, formerly
United States district attorney, who
made the charges, vehemently de-
manded that Parks commission be
revoked and that he be prosecuted
under the criminal statutes for con-
duct unbecoming an officer of the
law. Commissioner Carter took the
case under advisement.

knelt and wondered why she was
ION the wrong side" of the great
vault and where Alec d'Urberville
kicked the stones and remarked, "a
family gathering, is it not, with these
old fellows under here?" there was
an ancient family of the name Of
Turberville. In the south wall OF
the church a doorway long ago filed

legend, one of the Turbervilles quar-
relied with the vicar and vowed he
never would enter the old church
door again. He later became friends
with the vicar but chung to his VOW.
So the vicar had another door cut in
the church and Turberville wor-

passes a night in a wood. She is
disturbed by strange noises. When
the sun rises she finds wounded
pheasants lying all about her. others
dropping one by one from their
perches and slowly dying from gun
shot. In the face of such a horror
Tess feels ashamed of her self-pity.
In another story an innocent victim
