It's all because a couple of linemen, employed by th* Hell Telephone Com pany. yesterday unearthed a great big blind tiger, a healthy one with both eyes abut, beneath that pile of Inno- cent-looking but rotting telegraph poles. iHeneath the poles there waa someone's cache containing sixteen ftilv quarts of ’'case goods'' whisky. The stuff waa very cleverly hidden, being entirely concealed from observation. Thn •'tlgei*' waa also well protected from the elements for besides the over, head covering of heavy poles. It lay beneath a piece of tin. The telephone linemen consider themselves lucky.
