L. Livingston and his assistant, L. J. Tutt, yesterday afternoon. The boiler—a huge affair—was steamed by ol burners, fed from large metai barrels of fuel oil. The mash- feeder above the still was a 1,000-gal- lon bin. But the neatest bit of still engineering was disclosed in the con- densing and cooling system, which stretched in underground copper pipes from beneath the still to a 300-foot series of coils beneath the surface of a shallow pond formed by damming up a spring stream.

Lord Edward is the son of the Duke and the Duchess of Man- chester, who was before her marriage Miss Helen Zimmerman of Cincinnati. He recently decided to return to the mother country and reached Winnipeg from the west yesterday. After a year's “training” farm of Lord Rodney, near Edmon- ton, Alberta, theyoung nobleman became tired of paying to learn farm- ing and at having “to work like a laborer,” he told Winnipeg news. paper men, but last night a wire from his mother changed his mind. Today he was en route west once again to finish his course in the art of cul- tivating the sofl. on the |Destroyed by U. S. Agents Near Ashton all filled with rye mash. Twenty-one thousand gal- lons of mash were made unfit by pour- ing the contents of the seven large barrels of fuel oil into them. Two tons of sugar, a large quantity of rye grist and dry mash and the still and equipment took more than two hours to wreck. The dam resisted efforts at destruction until blown up with dyna- mite. The still, according to the prohibi- tion men, was the most modernly equipped ever destroyed by them. The contents—some 500 gallons of which were destroyed—produced 180-proof spirits in second-run liquor. Eight attendants at the still were warned of the approach of the raiders by a lookout, and the steaming still was void of human attendants when the agents arrived. Phose participat- ing in the raid included Agents Tutt, Hodge, Carter, Brown, Fitzpatrick, Quinn, Stott and Lewl: Young Lord Cites Lack of Polo Ponies “Go west, young man,” was what the duchess advised her son. Arriv- ing at Winnipeg Lord Edward told of his hard farm life, of paying $500 a year and $5 a day for the privilege of jearning how to run a farm, and of the lack of riding horses and ‘‘other necessaries.” Another reason for his breaking his journey at Winnipeg, so he sald, was the boresome passengers on his train. especially one young woman, who greatly exasperated him.

The District Commissioners, for the first time, today ran into conflict with the new provision in the appropriation bill for the next fiscal year preventing them from purchasing property for municipal purposes at a price 25 per cent above the assessed valuation. The property which the Commis- sioners wanted to acquire is in the vicinity of Sixteenth street and Piney Branch road and would be used as a site for the proposed new fire engine company, No. 30. None of the avail- able land in that section, the District officials decided after thorough investi gation, can be purchased within the limitation of the appropriations act. As a result, Commissioner Fenning instructed Fire Chief George S. Wat- son to appeai to the civic organiza- tions in the section of the proposed | new fire house to perform a real pub- | lie spirited service and find, if possibl jan available lot which can be pur- chased within the appropriation limitations.
