10 bis annual report to the Bureau of
Health William j. Byrns, Chief Milk In
spector of the Bureau, states that 80 SIT
inspections were made of 404 $40 quarts
of milk. Of this amount IL, 947 quarts,
or 3 ~ per cent. were condemned because
of adulteration and water, 2414 quarts
were skinned and 40 quarts colored.
The report continues:
The estimated quantity annually con.
sumed being ITO, 600, 900 quarts, it will
be seen that 81 per centum of the
supply only was examined, being the
quantity found in the shops and wagons
OF dealers. The result of milk inspec.
ton may be appreciated when it is stated
that the initial examination into the
character of milk supplied consumers
disclosed watered, skinned, and colored
milk to the extent of 81 per cent. Basinp
a calculation on the amount examined
aud the amount consumed, the 81 per
cent. represents in total supply 81, 900 600
gallons of water sold as milk. 10 dollars
aud cents this would mean ~defrauding
consumers to the extent of between
So 42O, 900 and "a. $50, 900 4 year.
Chief Byrne then takes up the question
of food for cows, and says that to pro
duce good milk they should be fed on
grain food instead of short pasture and
green corn fodder. This, he says. can
not be governed by the price, as that Is a
subject that the consumer has nothing to
do with, except to pay what is agreed
upon by the producer and the dealer.
In speaking Of poor foods, he says.
under such conditions it does not fol-
low that milk just as it comes
from the cow is to be accepted
as fulfilling all the requirements.
However god the pasture may be.
a grain ration is essential to produce
a milk that will comply even with the
minimum of the law, namely 10 so per
cent. of the total solids and 8 per cent, of
fat.
"a considerable percentage of the milk
service of this CITY," says the report, ais
by glass jars or bottles. While in some
respects this method may seem adyan-
tageous to the consumer, there is q
serious objection, which, if understood,
would cause a subsistence of the dem and
for bottled milk. No better medium for
the Transmission of infectious diseases
could be devised, from the fact that these
bottles fnd their way into houses in
which scarlet fever, diphtheria and other
equally dangerous diseases may be.
These bottles may be taken into the sick
room and become filled with the germs of
disease, and uGless sterilized, be the
means of spreading infection indefinitely.
Obscure cases, for which no apparent
cause existed, may have originated in this
way. Sterilization of jars is impraotic
able under existing circumstances, and
washing in tepid water will not destroy
germs. On the score of safety it would
seem tie part of wisdom to reject milk
served in this way"

ham Art League last night at their studio
was fairly representative exhibition or
the best work by those of the modern
artists who have turned their attention
to making the poster thing of beauty
and joy forever.
The first room was given up to the
private collection of Mr.. VIII II. Brad
ley, of his own pen and ink drawings and
water color designs and reproductions
thereof. from the pre- Q
Much interest was Shown by the visit
ors to that collection, and it ELECTED con-
siderable comment, and no little curiosity
as to the motives that underlie some of

Studio No 2 was hung with posters by
American artists, ard represented all
lines of advertising. the popular maya

Birmingham Art League.
It's able president. Mrs. o. w. Under

bringing this exhibition to it's doors and
it has been a means of stimulating inter-

RE1MENYI'S FAREWELL TOURS.
Edouard Remenyi. who will appear in
Seals Music hall Friday evening. March
10, was born ait Moskolc, Hungary, about
the year 1870 His master on the violin
was Joseph Bohm, who also taught the
great Joseph Joachim. During the Hun
garian uprising Remenyi, then quite
boy. enlisted as a soldier and fought
brilliantly: he became aide-de-camp to
Gyorgey when the latter was appointed
ommander-in-chtef of the hsro-army of
Hungary, ard though at the time lit
tie lieutenant OF sixteen summers, Rem
enyi used to delight the old veterans
with his music and make their hearts
glad and brave for the next days fray
After the defeat of the insurger he had
to lsave his country. and resolved to go
to England. On the way he made the ac-
quaintanee of his celebrated countryman'
Franz List, who. recognizing his genius,
became his friend and adviser.
Soon after the young artists arrival in
London he was appointed SOLO Viohnlst
to the queen. When he obtained his am
nesty he returned to Hungary, where
he afterwa rds received from the emperor
of Austria a similar distinction 10 chat
granted him in England. In the mean
time, he had made himself famous by
numerous concerts in the European cap
itals He then retired for a time from
public life, but in 1875 he resumed his
artistic career in Paris. where>he was re-
ceived with great enthusiasm. His first
tour of Amelnca was begun, November
II, 1878, and his successes during that
and the following season are still too
fresh in the minds of the public TO re-
quire comment.
Since that time he has made a tffum-
phal tour of the entire globe, combining
music with circum-nav iga ton. and
charming with dulcet strains natives of
the Sanwich ISLANDS. Australia, Tasma-
MIA, Dutch Indies, Java, india, Madras,
Ceylon, China, japan, Philippine Islands
and South Africa, where he remained for
a period Of three years, returning to En-
rope for the final concerts of the tour.
1t is zaldom that a man is accorded the
privilege of learning the exact amount
of esteem in which he is held by his OWL
fellow men by perusing his own obituary.
This curious and unusual experience Is

an incident in the life of Remenyi. who
was reported drowned during his passage
from India to South Africa. The sad
ness which this melancholy information
aroused throughout the civilized world
was happily dispelled when six months
later dispatches announced his safe ar
rival at the Cape of Coed Hope.
Remenyi has turned his wanderings of
the last twelve years to literary account
and has written a book on Japanese art
which win soon be published in London
Only in enc respect has Remenyi's Hun
garian nature undergone a ehange-for
years he has abjured smoking and the
use Of wines and beer.

Augustus Thomas most delightful
story of the south, as it will be interpret
ed by Mr.. Clement cambridge and his
excellent company at the opera house
Tuesday next, seems never to have lost
it's charm to the theater goers.
1t is a simple homo story of the south
after the war, and in its simplicity lies
it's very strength. With its characters
and scenes are given all the tone charac-
teristic of that section of the country
south of the Masoz. and Dixon line.
The scenes of the old plantation with
its ruined gateway. the fragrance of
magnolia that seem to permeate the
beautiful groves, the silvery moon cast
ing it's pale shadows through the trees
arc all effective pieces of stage craft that
always appeal in the strongest manner
to it's audiences. The cast of characters
in every detail is true to life of the section
in which the action of the play is laid.
