CAPTURED NITRO:
THOUGHT IT 'SKEY
OIL WE'LL SHOOTER, CAR DEAD.
BURIED NITRO TO MAKE
1T FOOL PROOF
Rockbound Prohibitionist, Watching
Operation from Vantage Place.
When Shooter Departed, Dug it
Up and Took it to Shelby Jail.

Tnree lO-quart cans of nitroglycer
inc, sufficient to blow the entire towr
OF SWeetgrass across the Canadian
line, occupied the place of honor IL
the border town %hoosegow one da,
last week. 1t was taken there by
a anche who thought it was SNUG
gled whisky.
The trouble all arose from the
c~arefulness of Dana Walters, shooter
for the Independent Torpedo com.
pany.
called to shoot the well of the
Southern Alberta Oils, Ltd, Walters
packed the cans of high explosive into
his car and started. When but a few
miles cross the line the car stripped
a gear.
Walters, for safety's sake, decided
to bury the cans in a nearby field
until he could return with the re-
paired car This he did, in the mean
time being watched in the distance
by a stern and rockbound prohibition
advocate, a farmer of the vicinity.
Walters hailed a passing car and
got a tow, and the 18th amendment
advocate thereupon promptly called
a deputy sheriff at Sweetgrass, tell
ing him with great unctiH- that there
was at hand the COMPLEX cache of
a bootlegger, ready to be picked.
The deputy responded at once and
with the aid of the rancher joyously
heaved the gurgling "soup" into the
back of a f~livver, which then banged
merrily over the rocky road to Sweet
grass, protected by the same hunch
of angels as are present when a
drunken man leans out of a third
story window.
Sheriff BENJAMIN at Shelby was
called on the long-distance phone,
and informed of the haul" Recog-
MIXING from the description of the
cans that there was then reposihg in
Sweetgrass enough explosive to blow
the town off the map, he advised the
of what his prize consisted,
and admonished him to get out of
town with it..
The cans, which had been handled
so unceremoniously a few minutes
before, now were the object of much
respect-so much respect that every
one declined to take them out on the
h superintendent of the Alberta
company was called, and he replaced
a n in their cache in the field,
from which they were later taken by
Walters.

Sun and Wind Bring Out Ugly Spots;
How to Remove Easily

Here's a chance, Miss Freckle-face,
to try a remedy for freckles with the
guarantee of a reliable concern that
1t will not cost you a penny unless it
removes the freckles; while If it does
give you a clear complexion the ex-
pense is trifling.
Simply get an ounce of Othine-
double strength-from any druggist
and q few applications should show
you how easy it is to rid yourself OF
the homely freckles and get a beau
tiful complexion. Rarely is more than
n ounce needed for the worst case.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength Othine as this
strength is sold under guarantee Of
money back If it fails to remove
freckles.

The aggregates should be separ

Whatever the proportions decided

TAX ON GASOLINE
MEETS APPROVAL
Vermont Survey Recommends
TWo-Cent Levy.

The tax on gasoline for highway
purposes has been approved generally
in States where it is in operation, &C
cording to a survey completed by the
Vermont State Chamber of Commerce.
Governor McCray, who has received
a copy of the survey, has asked the
Vermont organization to send him suf-
fioient for distribution in the Legisla-
ture.
The survey shows that in places
where a 1-cent tax is charged 1t
should be increased to 2 cents. The
Indiana proposal is for a 2-cent tax.
Oregon, South Carolina and Mary
land already have a 2-cent tax. In
twelve States where the 1-cent tax
was in effect. it was reported lust"
approved" and working without
complaint"
Arguments most striking in favor
of the tax were that it is equitable,
necessary for road maintenance,
general. and in proportion to the use
Of the roads.
Some Of the States provide that all
the money shall go to the State high
way commission, while others have
laws that the county obtains half.
States differ on where the tax is col
lected. Arkansas, New Mexico and
South Carolina collect from the re-
taller Kentucky. Maryland and
Colorado collect from the whole
salers. Other States collect from the
refiners.
Estimates of amount Of tax collected
vary greatly with different States.
Pennsylvania reaps $2.369,000 year,
Maryland averages $750,000 annual
ly and South Carolina with a 2-cent
tax obtained $500, 600 last year.

CITY PLANS WARD
FOR MENTAL ILLS
Move Would Take Insane From
County Jail.

Plans for a psycopathic ward for
the care Of the suspected and adj
judged insane We're announced today
by Dr.. Herman q. Morgan, city
sanitarian.
About two years ago the need foe
the ward was shown and the plans
taken up with the county commits
sioners. the proposal being that the
city furnish a room at the city hos
pital and that the county carry the
payroll Of the doctor and staff in
charge.
At that time no action was taken
and the question was brought up re-
Gently in a letter from Judge Delbert
O. Wilmeth Of the city court and
addressed to Mayor Shank reporting
on the conditions at the county jail,
where the insane are now kept until
they can be sent 10 permanent iusti-
tutions.
In his letter Judge Wllmeth said
persons adjudged insane were held
at the county jail on technical charges
of vagrancy.
DR.. Morgan's plan provides for a
ward at the city hospital with an ex-
pert psychiatrist in charge, assisted by
q staff of trained nurses. The prob
able cost would be $4,000 annually
Indiana IS one OF the few States
that does not have the proper facilities
for the insane previous to commit
ment,' Dr. Morgan said. to house
such a person in Jail is depriving him
of his rights Of citizenship and Is in
human.
My opinion is that the situation in
Marion County and Indianapolis is
serious and that it Is absolutely neces-
sary for the city and county to get
together and make provisions for a
psychopathic ward"
