100000 Rum Cache
Claimed For Own
Use By Laborer

NEW YORK, Jan. 1I.-Since
the Volstead Act went into
effect many queer situations
have come up in courts of the
country, but seldom has prohibit
ton given a Judge knottier
problem than the case of John
Alois, a laborer whoIis demand
ing the return of his private
stock" valued by Government
experts at 100000.
Judge Humphrey today issued
an order on district attorney
, Wallace of Queens county to
show cause why the liquor
should not be returned to
Alois, although the Judge was
rather skeptical ahont how it
was possible for a man who
calls himself "laborer" to
have such a wonderful cellar.
Alois occupies the old Black
well Mansion. historic struc-
ture in Astoria, and the district
attorney said the large supply
of liquor was cleverly hidden by
a duplication of the walls of
several rooms, leaving space for
concealment between the walls.
Alois contends in his affidavit
that the liquor is for his own
consumption, that he never sold
a drop Of it, and that it came
into his possession legally. The
district attorney admits the case
is clear on every point save one
how a laborer got together
100000 worth of liquor.

From the patronage of czars TO
the rule of the people grand opera
has passed in Chicago. It was the
pet and real child of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harold Mccormick. who up to last
season sponsored its deficits.
Today there is q Chicago Civic
Opera Association.
The plan first was to have 500
citizens of the Windy City who
would give-for actual expenses, for
grand opera is q fine art so vast that
it must be subsidized-who would
give $1,000 each. for five years, to its
suStenance.
Popular Subscriptions.
Three hundred of the five were
forthcoming. No more. So then the
lists were opened to smaller sub
scriptions, some as low as $50 year
still with the pledge for five years.
And this is the first of the five.
Thus it became the peoples
opera" and they love it.
To insure this sumptuous luxury
in music for Washington, forty-two
guarantors-at 81 900 eaoh-were
sought.
"This thing cannot be done,' said
the wiseacres.
Confidence begets confidence. So
behold, list of not forty-two guar
antors, but forty-four, and still the
lists are open.
For this is to be beginning. It
is to mean the insuring of an annual
event of great musical value to the

NO DEAD LEVEL IN NATURE
Gardener Seemingly Made Point in Dis
cussion With the Soap
Box Sage.

The gardener was trimming the
front hedge and the soap box sage
paused to converse with his acquaint-
ance welding the shears. The orator
soon had his favorite theme going.
The gardener was something of phi
losopher himself and ventured to put a
question.
'sThen you think humanity should be
kept trimmed to dead level like this
hedge?"
"Put it that way if you WISH" said
the orator.
The gardener pointed to the side of
the yard.
"Ah, bur I trimmed that hedge only
last week. Now look at it. So far as
we can see every branch had the same
opportunity. Yet some are higher than
the rest. You can't keep 'em down,
friend, you can't keep 'em down.
