that under Thompson's instructions he

Samples Below Grade" IT,.
Food Commissioner Hansen testified
to taking SAMPLES of booze from the

shown the possibility of adulteration,
and making further tests in his labor
atory. He said three possibilities pre-
scented themselves: That the liquor
had come from the wholesaler or. job
Der in an adulIerated form; second,
that water had been added to it; third.
that liquor OF a lower proof or an
inferior qualify haG ~seen added.
Breckons cross-eXamined him at some
length IN an attempt to prove that the
few samples which had been found
below grade" were negligible in com
parison with the large number of bot
ties which were all right; and. also
that even if the goods had been adul-
terated, the proprietor stood to make
only few cents mcnth and hence
would not possibly risk a valuable Ii
zcense for such small profit. The food
commissioner was not to be drawn in
to any theorizing on this point. He
stuck to the business he had in hand

DR.. l.. l.. Patterson Of the board of
health gave some details of the dan

system which made a few of the spec

said that tuberculosis or worse dis
ease might be contracted from the
transfer of bacilli from one customer
TO another. -.
In general the course of Deputy
Heen was to prove that at Thompsons
bar there were violations of the law
and dangerous practises, and the
course of the defense was to show
that the violations, if any, were so
few that they COLD not be called sys-
tematic; that generally the bar is we'll

were making out bases against their

If there is one thing that Mr..

Mr.. Young will stay in Buffalo for
some time yet: As he is the only
Hawaiian flier he expects that ne will

buy a Curtis machine, pack it up and
go back those 5000 miles to the land
