IMBIBERS BLAME FORCE IF HABIT
Insist On Displaying Char acteriStiCS Of Drunken
 MortaIS In Arid Mobile

MOBILE, Ala, Nov. 25.-(Special Leased Wire. )-while federal agents stationed in the downtown district kept a close vigil over seized liquors worth a small fortune and the ex- ternal aspects of the city had an arid resemblance of How dry I am," the imbibers in that which the Volstead act branded an outlaw few years, and which had already been cast out of legitimate channels in Mobile by Alabama's bone-dry law, insisted upon displaying characteristics of drunken mortals during the week end.
 And in consequence thereof, a mot ley regiment will march before the bar of justice tomorrow to explain. to the best of their knowledge and belief, how come such singular con- duct.
 If perchance they are sober enough to remember that ostensibly all the contraband whisky in town is stored under an improvised shed in an alley facting Royal street, force of habit" will be blamed for the staggering and reeling that brought about their predicament.
 From late Saturday night until Sunday afternoon, nearly a dozan in- dividuals had been enrolled at police headquarters under "276," which is tantamount in Mobile to the allega- tion that the defendants in question were inebriated, intoxicated, or drunk.
