C., TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 9. 1926. Federal Investigation of Vio- lations in City and County Offices Continues. By the Associated Prese. CHICAGO, November 9.—Federal inquiry into the sale of liquor in the city and county building. which led Saturday to the arrest of three coun- ty employes in a raid on the tax ex- tension offices of the county clerk, spread yesterday to the city side of the edifice and resulted in arrest of a clerk In the city controller's office. Prohibition agents slipped up to the controller's office and served a war- rant on Austin T. Concannon, clerk in the paymaster's division, which charged that he had worked with Wil- liam Dessow, county employe, arrest- ed Saturday, in purveying drinks to ployes. ‘Agents said they purchas- ed liquor from the palr in a corridor outside the mayor’s office. Concannon’s arrest caused none of |the excitement occasioned by Satur- day’s foray into the crowded tax ex |tension department. The Federal | men went directly to Concannon's desk. spoke to him quietly, and he conferred with his employer, then went calmly to the Federal building, { where he was held under $2,000 bond on charges of selling and possessing liquor. News of his arrest spread rapidly and city hall employers directed their clerks to produce any information they had of prohibition violation in the’ bullding. Later Concannon resigned, stating that while he regretted the incident, he was entirely innocent of the charges.

DYER BROTHERS INCORPORATED Paints for Every Purpose Moroccan Goats Pasture in Tree Tops; Natives Grow Grapes in Pits 6 Feet Deep Goats calmly pasturing in the tree tops and grapevines grown at the bottom of deep holes in the ground were two of the strange sights seen during a botanical tour around the world by Dr. David G. Fairchild of the United States Department of Agriculture, who has just returned to Washington. The ‘“monkey-shining” goats he found in Morocco, not far from the scenes of Abd-el-Krim's recent war, and the entrenched vineyards were on one of the Canary Islands, off the coast of Africa.

The trees are of a gnarled and crabbed growth habit. and their tops,are matted together, The ground undér them is barren, so that the only pasturage for the natives’ goat herds 1s to be found on their branches. The goats, therefore, have learned to climb up into the trees, where they have regular paths and runways among the branches. Here thely thrive on the leaves and the yellow plum-like fruits.

The entrenched vineyards he found growing in exceedingly arid volcanic soil on one of the Canary Islands, where no rain whatever had fallen in two years. There is constant cloudi- ness, however, and every night heavy dews are deposited.
