DISEASED MEAT FOR SALE
Il. F. Stoliz, a Butcher, Is
Arrested on Three
Charges.
Slaughtered Cow on His Premises
That Was Found to Be Badly
Diseased.

One of the worst cases that has come
under tine notice of Meat Inspector Ben
Davis was investigated by him yesterday
afternoon.
Policeman Smith, who is stationed in
the Mission district, notified the Meat In
spector by telephone about o'clock that
H F. Stoltz, butcher, Pride of the Valley
Market, $40 Castro street. had during the
night killed diseased cow on his prem
ises.
Davis at once drove out to the place He
could not find Stoltz, but he had no
trouble in getting into the shop, as the
door was open. He saw a block and
tackle hanging from beam and other
evidences that a cow had been slaugh-
tere6.
He examined the beef hanging up in the
shop. the condition of which aroused his
suspicious. In the yard among pile OF
manure he found the head and the rest of
the offal, which he took possession Of
He carefully examined the head and dis
covered big lump over one of the eyes,
which satisfied him that the animal had
been diseased. In other words, that it
had been suffering from lumpy jaw.
inquiries were made among the neigh
bors as to whether they knew anything of
the cow having been slaughtered, but
Davis could get no satisfactory statement
from any of them. He learned, however,
that nephew of Stoltz had seen the cow
slaughtered, but the boy was not at home
and he could not get his statement.
Davis took the head and offal to DR.. I.
w. O'Rourke, 33l Golden Gate avenue.
who carefully examined them and handed
Davis the following brief report of what he
had found:
"a large actinomycotic tumor which
penetrated deeply into the frontal sinus
OF the skull. The lungs were tubercuIous. 4"
The Meat Inspector swore out COM
plants against Stoltz on three charges
of violating the health ordinance: one
for depositing offal on his premises, an
other for exposing diseased meat for sale
and the third for slaughtering a COW out
side the regular limits.
Stoltz was arrested last night by Officer
P. G. Suiith. He was released on $50 bail
for each charge.

FLOWERS OF TRUTH AND LIFE.

Quite number of spiritualists assem- bled
in Scottish Hall last evening to do honor
to the christening of Otis Lincoln John
son, native sou, some three months of
age.
All unconscious of the momentous era
in his life, the infant was handed pas
sively from the arms of his mother to
those of Mrs. G. w. Shriner, the medium,
by whom the rites of baptism were per-
formed Considered all in all, it marked
an epoch in the spiritual and material life
of the youngest participant, who was the
lion of the evening.
At an early hour the hall was well filed
Mrs. G.. w. Shriner presided and at 8
o'clock the exercises were opened with the
singing of the favorite hymn, Nearer,
NY God, to Thee" Independence Bell, :"
the patriotic poem, was then recited in
spirited style by little Alice Wilson.
A distinguished medium, recently from
st. Paul, Mimi, next talked to the audi
ence cit is confidently expected" she
said, "that the good spirits gathered here
tonight will aid in the rapid unfolding of
the spiritual nature of the child that has
been brought to rs by its fond parents for
baptism.
LET them not forget it is their duty to
see that the child is well clothed and fed.
They should also be prepared to answer
any and all questions it may put 10 them.
Childhood is an emblem of beauty and
purity. In man there is a spiritual as
well as a material nature, and the har-
monious blending of these is what we
should strive to understand and to con-
summate. In this connection it is we'll to
remember that the child is the man.

NEW FORM OF SELF.HEALING TIRE.
A new form of self-healing pneumatic
tire is the subject of still another no
table patent. The invention covered
by this patent has been patented in
nearly every country having patent
system. This tire is constructed by
employing tube of certain diameter
and stretching a tube of q much smaller
diameter over the same. The result OF
this is that the outer tube is constantly
exerting a COMPRISING force upon the
ioner tube by its tendency to resume its
original diameter. Thus, if the tire is
punctured, the cut portion ofthe inner
tube containing the air is Immediately
sealed by this COMPRISING action of the

WooDLAWN FARMERS CLUB.


The April meeting of the Woodlawn
Farmers Club was held at the home of
John Bsllinger on the 25th ult., Presi-
dent Harrison in the chair. The min
utes of the last meeting were read and
approved.
The secretary had received commun-
ications from the two Virginia Senators
and Representative Meredith to the
effect that they would give the bill for q
farmers market in Washington their
support. Courtland Lukens had been
present at hearing before the con-
gressional committee of the District
upon two occasions and made a very
favorable report of the status of the
measure.
A synopsis of the crop report for
March from the Agricultural Depart
ment was read, showing that the wheat
crop of 1895 was short of that of 1894
in each of the six continents except
North America. Another striking fea-
ture is the steady decline of
wheat growing in Great Britain
and Ireland. In 1895 the United
Kingdom produced but little more
than one half as much wheat as in 1891
The Argentine wheat extension appears
10 have come to stsndstill and in MT st
European counties a considerable de-
cline in the total crop of 1895 as COM
pared with the preceding year is no.
ticeable.
Considerable conversation was had in
regard to the utilization of fish offal for
manure, now that fish are so plentiful
and cheap, and upon the subject of fer
tilizers generally. Regret was express
ed that the facilities for getting lime
into the neighborhood were so poor.
Much more would be used ifit was more
readily obtainable.
The application of certain parties for
a license to sell liquor at Riversid de
Park was mentioned, and it was
thought advisable that remonstrapce
be prepared, signed and forwarded 10
the County Court. The selling IF
liquor at that place would be seriol
disadvantage to this neighborhood
The meeting then adjourned to meet at
the home of A. H. Roberts, on the 23d
of May. w. GILLINGHAM, Sect'y.
