"have been "killed" by certain men

WalhaLIa, May S.? Sheriff John W.
Davis and hie deputy, J. A. Keaton,
created no little excitement late yesterday
afternoon in Westminster when
they captured a blockade distillery In
the heart cf the tGwn. The still was
legs than 100 yards from the Presbyterian
church and near the freight
depot. It was operated, it is alleged,
by George Love in his residence. The
plant wag in the cellar, the smoke be- |
ing carried in a pipe to the residence
chimney. . While moonshiners nse
i running water for condensing the
| spirits, the operator of this plant nsed
a barrel which he had filled with '
cracked ice. A run had just beentaken
off and the plant was hot and
ready for a night ran. The outfit
was a 20-gallon plant.
The still* with several ^aiioES of
( brandy,, was seined and brought to jail.
I Before the removal of the plant the 1
city authorities and others were noti[
fled and a crowd visited the premises
and seemed to enjoy the novel scene.
1 Later in the evening the sheriff went

jail.
j' Holes for Correspondents, j
Here are ten rules for country cor- i
respondents. They were prepared by !
an experienced newspaper man. Cut |
them out and keep tiers. Then try to
make your nest letter to the Dispatch
cc-nform with all ofi'the rules:
1. Bo not abbreviate. Do cot write
Mr. & Mrs., but Mr. and Mrs.; not
Men. or Sat. but Monday or Saturday.
2. Leave space between items for
jt jr j-.'.
j correction or aacuwons.
3. Give both initials. Write C- H.
; Brcwn instead or Mr. Brown or Mr. C.
Brown.
4. Write important subjects faliv.
Bo not dismiss the death of a well
known pioneeir in Laif a dozen words,
.but write something of interest connrcensing
him. If suicide or murder'
. "'give all the details you can get.
:J 5. Have verbs agree with subjects.
. "Don't say Mr. and Mrs- B. was, but
t Mr, and-Mrs. B. were. Mr. and Mrs.
B. may be one acripturally, Bat they
are two grammatically.
6, Don't use nicknames. Use James
Brown instead of Jim Brown, Edward
* instead of Ed .
7.. Give the time in an item. Mr.
< Brown was in Lansing, the house
i horned down, are incomplete. Tell
k when things happened.
[ Divide words correctly. Don't
I'J diyide such words aa enough, e-nough.
' ^on,fc aend articles reflecting,
h npcn the character of: individuals or
^ firms. The newspaper is not looking
i !for libel suits; neither does it care to
\ right yotir personal wrongs.
J. 10. Write yonr name and town at
r top of page. Last but most important
[ . rate of all. It is most essential that
[ the newspaper know from whom the
i news is received and from what place.
\ . Important suggestion, though not a
f rale: Carefally look oyer your news
[ after it is published and note what
\ changes had to be made.
While the ten rales given above are
\ important as relating to written news.
[ yet there is one rule supercedes them
all?Telephone really important news
at once.
