FATS AND FRAUD.
The Bogus-Butter business Viewed From
An Impartial Standpoint.


Some persons have assumed that be-
cause butter-substitute have been pre-
pared so skillfully that persons could
not tell the real from the false butter
when placed side by side, therefore tho
false is as wholesome as the true. Tho
real point is the question of relative di-
gestibility of the animal-fats, tallow and
lard, as compared with milk-fats, or but
ter. The digestibility is to be consider
cd not from the standpoint of robust
and vigorous men like miners and lum-
bcrmcn, but from the standpoint of
those who consume but little fat except
butter, namely, women and children.
A Russian may make light supper
of half-a-dozen tallow candles and an
Esquimau may swallow pound after
pound of train blubber, but these facts
would give little assistance in arranging
a dietary for the refined and delicate.
Milk-fats are the most easily digested of
all known fatty bodies, with the posi-
bic exception Of fresh olive oil.
Ii tallow and lard separately are diff
cult of digestion by delicate persons,
will mixture of these, to constitute
sixty to seventy-iive per cent. OF a COM
pound, no matter how thoroughly dis
guised, acquire such an increase of
digestibility as to place them on a par
with the milk-fatsP If not, then their
sale as butter is q fraud, and damage
to the public health. The question does
not lie between clean animal-fats and
rotten butter, No one advocates the
use of the latter; the point is between
good butter and good butterine. II the
latter is as good as butter, why is it
palmed of on an unsuspecting public as
''choice creamery?' At high prices,
and selling under fraud, the bogus but
ter butchers can afford to use clean tall
low and lard tor this manufacture. But
when competition has brought down tho
price of these substitutes, how are the
public to know how much cholera-hog
and diseased steer may enter into this
"choice creamery" process?-Dr. r. c.

A STUDY OF THE CYCLONE.

Its gaits II ninety miles an hour
Whence or 1t docs Its best.
Its home is In tho Sunny South.
'Tls there its reared and fed;
II scoops its victims in It's mouth
And travels on Its head.
The lightning flashes from its eyes,
while loud its voice doth roar;
II body reaches to the skies,

Which man can not control,
The fellow that would not be missed
Must crawl down In some hole.

Fully seventy-five people were present and the meeting was an interesting one. It was finally decided that the directors reopen the gate as soon as con- venient. The gate is to be provided with strong spring hinges and spring lock SO that it will not only be self closing, but self locking as well.

Court Notes.

William J. Kerwin and Michael Connolly, who were arrested for bathing in Mill river on Sunday, and who were charged with breach of the peace and drunkenness, had their cases continued until July 15 in the City court yesterday morning.
 Benj jamin Hitchcock, of Southington, want ed to come in as overseer and defend in the four cases that were recently brought before Justice Ullman sainst Carrie Bailey. The justice took the ground that he could not de- fend as her overseer. Counsel for defendant thought he could and appealed to the Com mon Pleas court to order Justice UIlman to admit Hitchcock. The case was heard by Judge Deming on Friday and he has decided that Justice Ullman was wrong and issues a peremptory mandamus compelling him to al- low Mr. Hitchcock to defend in each of the cases.
 The Superior court, Judge Stoddard, will come in this morning, when his honor will give his decision on the demurrer in the con- spiracy cases. If the demurrer is overruled the cases will probably go to trial on their merits at once.
 In the City court yesterday morning Philip Alston, colored, was fined $1 and costs for kicking little boy named Willie Marshall on West Haven car @ few nights ago.
