From Xazareth the crew pro¬ ceeded to Bangor, where they made short work of "drying" the Bangor I'censed places. For several months complaints have been reaching headquarters In Philadelphia that the county was "wide open." Two weeks ago Direc¬ tor Davis Bent Edgar Davis and Frank Huber, dry agents, to make a survey, aiid as a result search warrants were obtained tor forty establishments Some ot the hotels are considered ot the best and their owners were in¬ dignant when the prohibition agents appeared, but held their tongues when the agents started carrying dust-covered bottles ot liquors from the cellars and loading them in trucks. While In Nazareth, the American hotel, Edward Fehr, proprietor, the Baronial, Palmer Cole, proprietor, the Xazareth Inn, Archibald Kresge, proprietor, the Commercial House, U, F, Moser, proprietor, and Shep¬ ard's hotel, Edward .Shepard, man- I ager, were all visited. It Is reported I that the largest stock was secured at Moser's place. The liquor there was in five barrels, twenty cases and two lings. At the Nazareth Inn, the pro- I loietor was not on hand to welcome tlio guests, being at Scranton, but the agents Inspected^he place and con¬ fiscated four cases of gin, five gal¬ lons of alcohol and three cases of whisky. At tho American hotel, about $200 worth of liquor contained iu about six cases and a jug, were taken. At Shepard's hotel, the haul was very meager, for only three bot¬ tles of what is said to be creme de menthe, was found. At the Baronial hotel, the search, which was thor¬ ough, failed to reveal any liquor of any kind about the place. It was while seizing the liquor at the Colonial hotel in Bangor that the only actual physical violence oc¬ curred. Here a great crowd gath¬ ered outside the hotel, and as the agents hauled one container after an¬ other up the steps trom the base¬ ment, leading to the sidewalk, they were Jostled and pushed by the crowd, and when they drove off In the truck with the liquor, stones were hurled at the truck, but as far as can be learned, none of the occu¬ pants was struck. Two large stocks were confiscated during the session, one being the pri¬ vate stock ot George Rodenbough, formerly proprietor ot the Colonial hotel, Bangor, and who now resides at that hotel, which Is managed by two ot his former clerks. Harry Pritchard and David Simons, and the other large confiscation was made at the Commercial House. Nazareth, conducted by Henry F. Moser. where lie,uors valued at about $1(1,000 were confiscated. The liquor seized here was taken to Easton, where it was transferred lo a larger truck and was then trans¬ ported to Philadelphia, RALLY DAY SERVICES AT EVANG.

Brong, ot Pen Aigyl, paator ot the Retormed con¬ gregation ot St. Peter's church, read a most fascinating and thrilling story of the captivity of the Keller family by the Indians. In his story he related how Mrs. Keller and her two sons, a family in Plainfield town¬ ship, were taken captive by the In¬ dians while her husband was work¬ ing In the fields. The two sons were killed and Mrs. Keller was carried to Canada. She escaped after three years captivity and made her way back home.

All were made of large tree trunks, tied together to form block houses. At the conclu¬ sion ot his address and the afternoon session, the party, led by Prof. Rich¬ ards, went in automobiles to the site,j ot the old forts. Miss Kemmerer, ot Nazareth, sang a solo at the afternoon session. The members of ithe society and their guests had picnic lunches at the noon recess, a number of the members spreading their repasts under the trees near the church. The ladies ot tte church served coffee to their guests. The next meeting of the society will be held late in October at Arndt's church, when Noah Dietrich, com¬ mander ot Lafayette Post, No. 217, G.

The clean-up evidently was a thor¬ ough one being a continuation of their work after "mopping up" Eas¬ ton. From Xazareth the crew pro¬ ceeded to Bangor, where they made short work of "drying" the Bangor I'censed places.
For several months complaints have been reaching headquarters In Philadelphia that the county was "wide open." Two weeks ago Direc¬ tor Davis Bent Edgar Davis and Frank Huber, dry agents, to make a survey, aiid as a result search warrants were obtained tor forty establishments Some ot the hotels are considered ot the best and their owners were in¬ dignant when the prohibition agents appeared, but held their tongues when the agents started carrying dust-covered bottles ot liquors from the cellars and loading them in trucks.
While In Nazareth, the American hotel, Edward Fehr, proprietor, the Baronial, Palmer Cole, proprietor, the Xazareth Inn, Archibald Kresge, proprietor, the Commercial House, U, F, Moser, proprietor, and Shep¬ ard's hotel, Edward .Shepard, man- I ager, were all visited. It Is reported I that the largest stock was secured at Moser's place. The liquor there was in five barrels, twenty cases and two lings. At the Nazareth Inn, the pro- I loietor was not on hand to welcome
tlio guests, being at Scranton, but the
agents Inspected^he place and con¬ fiscated four cases of gin, five gal¬ lons of alcohol and three cases of whisky. At tho American hotel, about $200 worth of liquor contained iu about six cases and a jug, were taken. At Shepard's hotel, the haul was very meager, for only three bot¬ tles of what is said to be creme de menthe, was found. At the Baronial hotel, the search, which was thor¬ ough, failed to reveal any liquor of any kind about the place.
It was while seizing the liquor at the Colonial hotel in Bangor that the only actual physical violence oc¬ curred. Here a great crowd gath¬ ered outside the hotel, and as the agents hauled one container after an¬ other up the steps trom the base¬ ment, leading to the sidewalk, they were Jostled and pushed by the crowd, and when they drove off In the truck with the liquor, stones were hurled at the truck, but as far as can be learned, none of the occu¬ pants was struck.
Two large stocks were confiscated during the session, one being the pri¬ vate stock ot George Rodenbough, formerly proprietor ot the Colonial hotel, Bangor, and who now resides at that hotel, which Is managed by two ot his former clerks. Harry Pritchard and David Simons, and the other large confiscation was made at the Commercial House. Nazareth, conducted by Henry F. Moser. where lie,uors valued at about $1(1,000 were confiscated.
The liquor seized here was taken to Easton, where it was transferred lo a larger truck and was then trans¬ ported to Philadelphia,
