the officer taking the same shall post in a conspicuous place
on said premises or at or near the location of the place or
thing searched a copy of his warrant, and take possession
of such liquor and means used for the sale of the same,
and hold them subject to the order of the court or Justice
of the Peace, and make return of his doing thereto. Where-

Justice of the Peace or Court shall order the same
destroyed or disposed of.

accepted as such, unless it or some part of it is used as a

secreting or furnishing or handling any intoxicating liquor,
in any quantity, intended or for the purpose of sale or dis-

law; provided, nevertheless, if the Justice of the Peace
shall, after an examination of the party making the oath or
after taking such other proof as may be produced, deem
it proper to issue such warrant, then the said Justice of
the Peace, may, in his discretion, issue the warrant as
hereinbefore provided, for the searching of such a resi-
dence.

serves the warrant and point out and enter the place or
thing with such officer and give information and assist-
ance to such officer in searching such place, house or thing
for such intoxicating liquor.

116. Liquor seized as hereinbefore provided, and the
means used for the sale of the same, shall not be taken from
the custody of the officer by a writ of replevin or other
process while the proceedings herein provided are pending;
and final judgment of conviction in such proceedings shall
be in all cases a bar to all suits for the recovery of any
