very bones. The marks of the sharp knife
were plainly visible. The eyes were de-
cayed, the face covered with shaggy red
whiskers and the head with darkish red
hair. Over the skull was a close fitting
cap apparently made of knit undershirt,
over which was a seal skin cap with
ears and tied under the chin. There were
wooden bandages about the wrists and
ankles, and considerable gravel upon the
chest The feet and hands seemed white
and swollen. The remains were fully
identified by relatives from the teeth.

Tuesday the large brewery of C. Magnus
was closed by the authorities and the prem
Uses searched. There were found in the
building seven hundred barrels of beer;

element of any account The liquors
seized are being tested. Magnus says he
will abide by the law, and if the authorities
decide there is alcohol in the drinks he has
been making since the 4th, and that they
are intoxicating, he will cease making them
and close his brewery.
