Deputies Homer Adrean.
Claude Tyler and Ben Moore
slipped up the deep draw Satur-
day at midnight, grabbed Hen-
ry McKee, a negro named Vick-
ers, five gallons of what is alleg-
ed to be the best “hootch” ever
distilled in Oklahoma county,
and turned 600 gallons of mash
that soon would have been at
least 400 gallons of corn.
"Stick ’em up,” called Tyler,
as the three deputies closed in
from three sides on the nifty
camp that McKee had built.
One man ran and Tyler’s Win-
chester is believed to have
wounded him in the leg.
McKee, according to the de-
puty sheriffs, is an oldtime
Georgia moonshiner and had a
double-distilling process that
was a “bear.” Only the escape
of one of the gang prevented
the deputies holding the crowd
there until all the 600 gallons of
mash had been distilled. Mc-
Kee had provisions , enough
there to last three weeks, Ad-
rean said.
It was the first still captured
by the county in actual work of
turning out the hootch.

PREDICT $20 SUGAR
There was more sugar in Ok-

jobbers here announced.
The big supply was being
quoted Monday at $22.50 per
100 pounds wholesale, a slight
rise from Saturday, but jobbers

Belief is that forcing the price
up to 30 cents a pound cut
down the demand for sugar, .....
