DADDY STILL IS CAPTURED Florence Officials Think They Have Done Well to Find This One WHISKEY TRAFFIC INJURED Larger Than the One Recently Destroyed in Marion County I-ate Wednesday afternoon deputy Ham, of the sheriff's otlice, Magistrate's Constable Belk, of Lake City, and Federal Officers Younians and StaCV. of FloriMirP. hntMrpfl wlmt iv Relieved to he the largest capacity whiskey still so far captured by Florence officials. The capture and deduction of the still was the culmi-! nation of several weeks search and i the second hip drive that was made for it by the officers, says The Times. Along: with the still, twelve 60-galIon barrels of beer were captured :ir^ there was 300 gallons in the stil' ready to be run olf. The barrels of beer and the immense still were destroyed. It was made of wood am' lined with copper and the officers stated that it bulked large against th< surrounding background of swamp verdue. The still was located in the . Pee Dee river swamp between Crawford end Harrican landings and was well bidden. The sheriff's office reported that they learned the big still was somewhere in the swamp some weeks ago and made one drive for it before the on on which it was discovered. The former drive was on the Marion side of the river with the result that it was missed. After several hours beating the swamp on the last drive on the Florence side the still was located, it being well hidden far in the swamp. No one was arrested at the time, the operators having made good their escape before the officers arrived on the scene. The operators arc known to the officers, but "proving it is another thing," stated the sher ifT this morning. A more comnlete outfit for manufacturing illicit ^ whiskey on a large scale has not been in this section i> a long time, stated the officers, and ?ic4'i viic> i/cr*:u n-i ilium" muni the operators would certainly havr become young millionaires at the pre;ent price of "moonshine." A depart ure from the usual still was that tlv outfit did not have the usual coil ftv condensing: the vapor, but used an air tight keg and a long copper pipe sub merged in a trough of running water The officers are well pleased ove their capture and believe they have broken the backbone of the illic* manufacture of whiskey in this neigh borhood.

La ' The Sanitary Grocery" SUIT BROUGHT AGAINST RAILROAD The suit for making: the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad remove its tracks from Main Street of Conway has been filed, according to reports recently made. This subject has been taken up with the railroad company many, many times, various town administrations undertaking to get the railroad company to agree to remove its tracks and locate them elsewhere than ..l~ : : i .A ? it - iiiuiiK uiu prmripai sueei or me town. Several surveys have been made in the past, and several prooositions have been made and considered, hut none of these ever amounted to anything1 so far as moving: the tracks were concerned. In the meantime tne annoyance of having the smoke and cinders, the vibration, and the racket along- a busy thoroughfare has been kept up. So far as appears there has never beer any satisfactory answer made by the railroa to any proposition looking to the taking away of these tracks. They have made some surveys with a view to that or something else, they did not say. At last the town council appropriated money to defray the expense or' a suit to have the matter tried out in the courts. This is the suit that has just been brought. The complaint alleges in substance that the railroad company has used the streets without right and without the consent of the municipal corporation, and they continue to do this, etc. The Herald has not learned the date on which this suit will be brought up and tried.
