Other shots followed rapidly, one after another, and I felt a sharp pain low down tho back of my neck. The pain was so Intense that I could not help crying out. I rea lized perfectly that I had been hit." "What follows," continued the Prem ier, "passed with lightning-like rapidity. The orderly, seated beside the chauffeur on the front of the automobile, had, at the first shot, pulled his revolver out of his pocket. The chauffeur at the samo time put on speed and got us out of range. Then he turned and brought me back home. Now I feci absolutely nothing." Tho Premier paused here, and then added, sarcastically.
