GOLD IMPORTATION.

In response to the immense exports
of grain to Europe, gold is beginning
slowly to move Westward from the Eu-
ropean money centers. The natural
period of gold imports has arrived and
it is not surprising that every day

yellow metal from abroad. Under the
exhilaration OF this assurance, although
stock transactions are on diminished

FooD INSPECTION.

In yesterdays issue OF this paper
there appeared several interviews with
leading physicians OF the city touching
upon the necessity for the appointment
of Food Inspector. There is now be-
fore the council an ordinance the
terms of which contemplate the APP
pointment of such an officer, and which
limit aud define his duties. There
appears to be no opposition to the
passage of the ordinance except from
those against whose business it is feared
the enforcement of the ordinance will
work q hardship. This opposition
should be one OF the strongest argu-
ments in favor of its immediate passage.
The sale of impure milk, or adulterated
milk. opens the door for infantlle sick
ness and suffering. The sale of dis
eased and rotten meat exposes whole
families to death. The sale of unripe
and tainted fruits imperils the lives of
the little ones. The sale Of poisonous
dairy products menaces the lives o. all
who purchase them. The sale of all
diseased, impure, rotten and adulter-
ated food products should be prohi-
bited. If any shall disregard the pro-
hibition then they should be arraigned
and rebuked in the sternest possible
manner. The case of cheese poisoning
in the family of j. A. Ford, whereby
four persons were thrown into violent
convulsions yesterday afternoon is .
striking example Of tho necessity
for food inspection. The four
members of that family were
exposed to possible death and
were saved only by the prompt
administering of emetics, and the
use of other means to coun.
tsract the poison. This is only
one case in . hundred where persons
are sickened by the consumption of i'm
pure and unwholesome food. With q
Food Inspector tho danger from such
sources would be minimized. Milk
dealers would be under his surveillance
and the diaries would be cleansed and
the convenient hydrants used only for
legitimate purposes. The vendors OF
fruit would not be permitted to offer
. basket of rotten pears or diseased
peaches for sale at small price III or.
der to save nickel. The grocer would
DO obliged to sell bald-headed butter
and inaminate cheese. The meat mar.
ket man would not be permitted to
souse loin of creeping flesh into the
pickle to be withdrawn and sold for
"corned-beef,' nor will his sausages
carry the suspicion of undue longevity
in point Of age. The food inspector
will in large measure protect the peo-
pie from imposition, deception and
fraud. He should DO created, and al
once.

of losing the advantage expected by the
construction of the new freight house
just north OF Bridge-st. OF course to

Dr. Foster and Professor Chittenden of this city had expected to make an exhaus- tive report for the medical journals on the patients tried by Dr. Koch's lymph, but the experiments have been so barren of results that the report is no nearer being issued than when the first injection was made on December 8, 1890. Frank Strong, graduate of Yale in 'S4, at present teacher in St.Joseph, Mo. will probably be chosen president of the Wyo- ming state university. While in college here he was connected with the Yale Glee club and had remarkably deep bass voice. His brother graduated in 'S5 and was also connected with the Glee club and lost leg in the Glee club railroad accident near Louisville, Ky.. in January, 1884. Frank Strong was in the famous Calvary church quartette, the others being Miss Gaffney, Mrs. Blinn and Dan Knowlton.

Backing the Stove.

IT rlOlu lHe EACuduSc.
 No cook stove, though it is in continual use, should have fresh coat of backing applied oftener than once month, though every stove should be polished off with stove brush every morning before the cooking begins When fresh coat of backing is applied monthly remove the old coat by rubbing off the stove while it is warm, but not hot, with rag dipped in kerosene oil. This removes all grease stains Apply the new coat of blacking when the stove is cold, using cold coffee instead of water for mixing the backing. Be careful not to blacken any of the stove edges, which are of polished iron, or any ofssthe knobs and other nickel work, but brick dust for the polished iron and whiting or any silver soap for the nickel work.
 After the stove is thoroughly polished wipe it off with 8 dry clean rag. to remove any dust of the backing. After this pol ishing, all that is necessary is to keep stove cloth at the side of the stove to wipe up spots of grease before they are burned in and make a more enduring stain, and tc go over the stove with polishing brusl in the morning while the fire is coming up Thus with a little care stove may bt kept in prime order, unless the cook ii one of those unhappy slovens that spill' or boils over everything she takes holG of.
