Capitol Heights Bovine, Said to
Have Died in Tremens, Re-
sponsibIe for Tip.

The thirsty folk of Capitol
Heights, Md, ncIr-neighbor of the
District. had their supplies dealt n
death blow yesterday when two
revenue agents, Linton S. Evans
and j.. Fl. Estes. raided five places,
arrested three persons, found one
200-gallon still. one fifty-gallon still
"a large quantity of mash, thirty
gallons Of corn liquor, and barrel
of wne
The three men arrested and the
charges against them are Frank
Huber. manufacturing Philip
Rrainin. Illegal possession and sell
ing, and George Proctor, manufac-
turing and illegal possession. They
will be taken to Baltimore for ar
raignment today.
One of the stories emanating from
the Heights Is that the agents re-
ceived their first tip that liquor
was being manufactured there when
a COW staggered about town, plainly
under the influence of Bacchnalian
spirits. It is said that the COW dc
veloped thirst for liquor and lost
all liking for aqua pura. Under the
stigma Of having drunken COW in
town, the Capitol Heights residents
grew indignant and the agents were
tipped off The COW died an un.
timely death last week from what
was declared to have been deliriuE1
tremens.
According to George Finger,
mayor of tho town, bootlegging has
been prevalent there for some time.
Cases of drunkenness are not infre.
quent and numerous complaints
have been made to the prohibition
unit for better enforcement of the
Volstead law. Mayor Finger ex.
pressed the hope that the raids
would mop up tile wet spots in the
town.
