A CHOLERA INCUBATOR.
What is Said of Schepp's Roadside
S!aughter-Pen.
a Pestiferous Spot Near the City
Which is Polluting the Air
in Its Vicinity.

Road Overseer w. II. Basler, who has
charge of the road leading out Twelfth
street TO the American River bridge, and
who lives near there, called at the
RECORD UNION Office yesterday and COM
planned in very strong terms of foul
nuisance which he says a man named
Conrad Schepp maintains short distance
this side Of the bridge and within a few
yards of the public road.
There is Slaughter there, where
Schepp does some butchering on his own
account. Basler states that on Saturday
ne, Antoine Silva, brother of the latter
and several other men, visited the place
to see what it was that created such a
horrible stencil in the neigkborhood and
made people sick in passing along the
road.
They found, Basler says, COW so dead
that the carcass was fostering in the broil-
ing sun and was being GevoGred by hogs
which are, presumably, TO be killed for
the market. One hog lay dead beside the
carcass, apparently gorged to death on
the rotting mass.
In large kettle used for trying out fat,
or boiling otfal, was a mass Of decom-
posed flesh, with a four-inch top layer OF
squirming maggots.
The whole place. says Basler, is pool
OF fostering filth that is Of itself enough to
cause an outbreak of cholera in the neigh
borhood.
This spot is outside the city and the
matter is to be called to the attention OF
the Supervisors by Overseer Basler.
1t is said that the owner OF the slaugh
ter-house has the contract for supplying
meat TO an institution here that has scores
Of inmates. Again the RECORD UNION
calls the attention of the Board of Health
to the propriety of causing regular inspec-
tons TO be made of meats and other arti-
Giles sold here for food. 1t is true the
members of the Board of Health receive
no pay for their services, but if they
would use their influence with the au-
thorities The latter might empower some
official to attend to the matter.
AS things now are, impure meats, poi
sonous canned goods. drainage-canal fish,
adulterated milk and other food articles
can be sold here without danger of de-
lection or hindrance

THE POOR AND NEEDY.

Some Facts to be Laid Before the
County Supervisors.
Some time this week Richard Dale and
other officers of the Howard Benevolent
Association will appear before the Super
visors and lay before them some facts re-
lating to the poor of the county and the
duty of the Supervisors in connection
Herewith.
The public generally, including officials.
have very little knowledge of what this
purely philanthropic association is doing
for the Door and needy, nor Of the obsta-
cleS with which it has to contend The
Supervisors are simply asked to further
strengthen the hands of the citizens who
are maintaining it to the extent allowed
by State aid.
The Howard Association was the pride
Of the earlier Sacramentans, but as they
are removed by death-and there are only
a Jew now lett-the number ofsubscribers
is gradually decreasing, as newcomers
know nothing of its noble history and
therefore take little interest in the work
it is doing. The association knows
neither. creed, color, nor locality, and
does as much for the destitute country
man as for the residents OF the city: but
for all that there are lew residents of the
county outside the city who contribute to
its support.
