That Winston Railroad
Springs up Again
The story comes from Win
ston to the effect that a rail
j road proposition is peing con
sidered, which is to run from
! Winston-Salem to Elkin via j
i Yadkinville. A committee has
been appointed to in investig
I ate the matter.
It is their plan to connect
said road with the Elkin and
i
I Allegany road at Elkin. No
j definate plans have yet been
mapped out although the com
mittee went so far as to sugg
est a name for the proposed
j road.
A road of this kind would
not only give Yadkin County
great advantage but would
put Winston-Salem in a super
ior position as for railroad
j facilities are concerned. How
ever the advantages will be
worked out later, probably
when the road is nearer com
! pletion.

Four Still* Captured
But Only One Man
Last Wednesday night De
puty Sheriff J. E. Shugart,
with some men deputised by
him, captured a still near Sha
cktown, 5 miles East of Yad
kinville. One man Sandy
Hutchens, was arrested, later
turned a loose as he had only
went to get a drink of beer.
One man, thought to be the
owner, got away. The copper
still was of about ioo gallon
capacity, 400 gallons of bear
was destrayed, and 6 gallons
of whiskey was brought to
town.
The second still was captu
tured Thursday P. M. just a
little ways from where the fir
st was found, this outfit was of
small capacity, two caps being
used for the still and cap.
One man was caught at this
place, Tom Willard and he
was filling up the still when
found. He was borught before
U. S. Commissioner, J. H.
James, where he submitted
and was bound over to Feder
al court. This is the first time
Willard was ever caught at
anything like this and’conseq
uently his bond was fixed at
$100. This still wTas taken by
Deputy Sheriff J. E. Shugart
alone, which is something out
of ordinary for one man to do
but Mr. Shugart is well kno
wn for daring attempts. Thjs
is said to be the first outfit
ever captured by a single offi
cer in Yadkin, Co.
But Friday was when the
‘big dog” was bought in. It
was found by Mr. Shugart
and Sheriff Fletcher, down on
Harmon Creek, near the home
of Mr. Sid Shore, no one was
found at this place but evertli
ing was in full blast and they
evidently had not been
gone very long. The still was
the largest brought here in a
long time, it’s capacity is abo
ut 130 gallons, about 2000
gallons of beer was destroyed
by the officers, the still and a
keg of low wines were locked
up in the jail. There is said
to be an immense amount of
blocking going on down in
this corner which the officers
are determined to stop.
A Louisiana judge has just
ruled that the kiss of a young
widow is worth five hundred
dollars. That may be just rul
ing, but hanged if we ain’t get
ting some “just as good” for
a good deal less money.
