the year 1903, was filed with the Governor
ana Council, yesterday. 1t shows that
during the past year. he has analysed 10
samples of liquor sent him by State liauo,
agents. for which he has visited various
agencies as occasion required. ThC
liquors analyZed are not specified in tn.

with Il loss of over 800 lives. and that he
had fortunately escaped without The

yesterday morning: "Will and | were il

Capcd without bruisc or burn. Annie

seems that Mr.. Peaks and his son
in-law attended the theatre, leaving Mrs.
