RUM VILLAGE IS GOING BACK TO SLEEP; RAIDED State Troopers to Go On Trial for Alleged Acceptance of Bribes. Bu I'nitcd Prctt NEW YORK, April 18.—The little village of Fort Pond on the easternmost tip of Long Island, basking In the spring sunshine, has returned to its former monotonous routine of indolence between visits of the fishing smacks and the two trains a jay. This was the gateway of smuggled liquor, the rendezvous of the guerrillas, the haunt of men who served the bootleg ring. Between the village and the famous Montauk light is the burial ground of the latest ambitious scheme to flood New York city with liquor. Casks and bottles that held half a million dollars worth of smuggled wine and whisky lie broken beneath the gun butts and heels of State troopers—one of whose number exposed the cache when he received a charge of buckshot in ills body while fleeing after an attempted holdup. Half way between Ft. Pond and Montauk Light was the main cache of the booze ring—here a man could store his smuggled liquor in the care of a watchman and none would interfere with it. There, was honor among the bootleggers at the Benson place. The watchman, with the guerrillas at his beck and call, saw that each client received his own liquor, when he called for it to make the more dangerous run to New York. How this state of affairs was possible is explained in part by the inaccessibility of the cache and. perhaps, by the fact that an investigation begins Monday into charges that state troopers received S4OO weekly to keep a blind eye upon the blind p,R *' A woman, who drove a closed sedan from the cache to nearby towns along the south shore, bundled in a fur coat, a smart police dog by her side, played a prominent part In the denoumenf. It was this woman's brothers that accompanied William Delmadge, a state trooper and attempted to rob the cache on the Benson place of TOO cases of liquor and' it was his attempt which brought the W’hole structure tumbling about the bootleggers’ ears. SURVEY IS ORDERED State Sanitarians to Visit Storm Area. Complete sanitary survey of the devastated regions of the Indiana storm area has been ordered by Dr. Wiliam F.

BONO WARNING GIVEN Board of Accounts Head Writes County Officials. Warning to county officials throughout the State against wholesale issuance of surety bonds to deputy officials and disclosure of an attempt by surety companies to make capital of existing laws is contained in letters being sent out by l*twrence F. Orr, chief examiner of the State board of accounts. Orr's letters cite an opinion by Attorney General Arthur Lt Gilliom, holding bonds payable out of public funds only In offices specifically requirt'd by law to do so. Apparently misunderstanding the law, severla bond companies have van -assed the State recently and have carried their solicitations to deputy State officials.

INGROWN NAIL Turns Right Out Itself

A few drops of “Outgo’’ in tho crevice of the ingrowing nail reduces inflammation -nd pain and so toughens the tender, sensitive skin underneath the toe nail, that it can not penetrate the flesh, and the nail turns naturally outward almost over night. “Outgro’’ is a harmless antiseptic manufactured for chiropidists.
