FOOD INSPECTION.

The movement that is on foot to
thoroughly inspect the meat that is
offered here in the markets for our
| citizens, is one that cannot be too
strongly taken up by the council. That
animals are slaughtered and their car
cases offered for food in this city,
which are not in a healthy condition,
and which as a consequence should be
prohibited as articles of food, is not
seriously questioned. That meat is al
so offered, in conditions that are mimi
cal to health, after being all right
when slaughtered, is also not success
fully disputed. That such foods are
prejudicial to good health and SANTA
ton, as we'll as being the fruitful
source Of epidemics, is well known to
the instructed in matters of food sup
ply. This however is no more true of
meats than of vegetables and fruits
and the inspection that is demanded
in the one case is equally required in
the other. The city council will only
do it's obvious duty in providing for
competent and rigid inspection of all
foods offered in the markets, whether
fish, flesh, fowl or good red herring on
the one side, or fruits and vegetables
on the other. 1t is within the powr, of
on the other. 1t is within the power of
foods for restrictions and inspections
that will insure to the people the con-
sumption of meat that is perfectly fit
and of fruits and vegetables that are
would be a hundred fold easier and
more efficient were there established
in this city a central market. There
are reasons that are valid which can
be urged against this Capitalization,
but for every reason so adduced three
good ones can be produced in favor of
it. 1t is not the intent of this article
to discuss that now, but to emphasize
the need of the most careful inspection
by competent authority of all meats
and milk and vegetables and fruits and
melons that are offered in this city.
The hot season is upon us,and the bills
of mortality, especially among the little
ones, will be reduced twenty-five per
cent. under a careful inspection Of the
fruits and milk that they so largely
consume. There is nothing of more
Importance to the health of the city at
present than this and the cleanliness
of the streets, back alleys, back yards
and kitchens of the city. Here it is
that the ounce of preventative is
worth a half ton of cure. The coun-
Gil will please prescribe accordingly.

Shaw's garden in st. Louis is pious
fifty Sundays out of fifty-two, but by
special provision of the donor, the
gates are opened two Sundays out of
the year. Sunday last was one Of
them and though it was a rainy day
the harder it poured down the more did
the people pour into the garden. Sun
day is none too good day for the low
ers of nature to enjoy what can be
seen in that magnificent collection.
Pity that the flowers do bloom and
emit fragrance on Sunday.

There is not such a rush to get to
the front of the good times procession
as to cause the head to swim, but the
progress is already begun and the
peace is accelerating. The May fall
ures are coolies below those Of any 9TH
er month for the past nineteen. Just
have patience until the first six
months of Republican administration
are over and see how the promises of
good times loom up.

According to the New York World the

of the Lion of the Punjaub."
h Coventrys may have known, TOO.
that Prince Victor was, in the language OF
slang, a good deal of an Indian" How
ever, 1t seems that the objections of the
noble family lave been overruled. The In
dian government has agreed to settle $4,000
a year upon the bride, and, 1t may be men,

While the bride is so distinctly, English
and the groom an East Indian, this mar
riage will much interest Americans. Her
ladydship is the sister-in-law of V~iscountess
Deerhurst, who was Miss Virginia Bo-

Charles William Bonynge, who was born in
England, made his fortune in California,
and is now spending it's income in England.
