due, in a recent interview gave
some very interesting information
concerning the approaching I cere-

affectionately known among the
Shriners and many Of his more in

the yearning for the f1eshpots of the

grated to the North, Greenwood ne.
,groes are sending home-caught rab-

of negro accumulation. In return,
they are receiving castoff clothing.
One Greenwood negro attempted
to send dressed rabbit through the
mails to a negro in Chicago last
week. When told that the rabbit could
not be sent through the mail with
out difficulty in packing and the sign
ing of several blanks, he decided to
send live rabbit by express. The
recipient of the rabbit did not be-
lieve an Illinois rabbit tasted like a
rabbit from home, he said.

Plan to Balk .
Delivery of Booze
Along jersey Coast

New York, Nov. 3-CuStom officials
are planning to ask the governors of
New York and New Jersey to enlist
the services of sheriffs in coastal
counties in checking the wave of
liquor which is expected to break on
these shores with the arrival of a
fleet of British schooners from the
bahamas within the next few days.
The New York harbor police already
have been asked to keep a sharp
lookout for rum runners.
Cable advices from Nassau received
today at the custom house stated that
six schooners with about 100000
cases of liquor, had cleared during
the week ending Oct. 81. This was
said to be record number in one

Gals believed that if they were ap-
preached by small craft outside the
three mile limit, they might be in
duced to rid themselves of some of
their cargo en- route.
The recent decision that foreign
vessels could not be touched outside
the three mile limit unless it could
be proved they were getting in touch
with shore and violating American
laws trough the use Of their own
small boats, was held responsible by
custom officials for the departure Of
the fleet.
Conviction that extensive rum
running enterprise are being backed
BY wealthy interests was reiterated
by the authorities.
