Somewhat of a sensation was caused in
Ellsworth Thursday by the finding of a
human skull rear the residence of j.

found by Alfred Starkey in clump of
bushes few rods from South street.
The officers were notified, and after an
examination Of the skull and place where
it was found, Coroner Simonton ordered
the interment of the skull in Woodbine
cemetery, properly marked.
The skull had evidently been lying
where it was found long time. There
were no other bones in the vicinity.
Is it the skull of Sarah Ware, the victim
OF the Bucksport murder mystery of few
years ago? The skull was brought to
Ellsworth for use at the trial, and it is un-

Another Analysis by Director of State

Another analysis has been made Of the
Ellsworth water by Fl. d. Evans, director
OF the Maine laboratory of hygiene at
Augusta. The analysis, the figures of
which are for parts in 100000, is as fol-
lows;
Date of collection, April 10, 1909; examina-
tion April 2l,
Appearance-Turbidity, 0; sediment o.;
color, 3.4
Odor-Cold, none; hot vegetable.
Residue on evaporation-Total, 3.4; loss on
ignition, I'll; fixed residue, 1.3.
Ammonia-Free, .oo12; in solution, .o1o2
Chlorine--0.25.
Nitrogen-Nitrates, none; nitrites, none.
Oxygen consumed-.56.
Hardness-l9.
Iron-.02s.
Lead-None.
Colon bacillus-None.
In letter accompanying the analysis,
Director Evans says:
The analysis of the sample of water from
your public supply, sent to me on the 18th
instant, shows it to be free from all evidence
OF sewage pollution. This is true of both the
chemical and bacterial examinations. OF
course at this time of year there is evidence
Of considerable surface wash entering
the water. AS this is vegetable in
its origin it will be without effect on
the drinking qualities of the water.
In its present condition the water is in both
good and safe condition to use for drinking
or for any domestic purpose.
