"JUMPSTEADY" CAMPERS
TAKE COUNT ON DEATH

WILMINGTON, Del, March 49,
Following the finding of the bodies
Of Hugh Fox and John Curtin in the
marshes in South Wilmington the
police are planning a drive to rid
the section of the "jumpsteady'
camps, whose freQuenters burn the
poison from denatured alcohol and
drink it.
1t is cOntended by the police that
the men died from the effects of
wood alcohol poisoning, although the
coroner's deputy believes that ex-
posture was a contributing cause, as
the two men were out in the storm
during Monday night. The Jump
steady" camps are described as
places where the frequenters repair
to blue flame" wood and denatured
alcohol.
The process is said to be to place
the liquor in a can, set 1t afire and
after counting sixty blow out the
flame and drink the liquor. Var
nish and shellac, it is said, call for
a longer period of burning, possibly
two minutes, before the poisonous
concoction can be drunk.
