roles with much good taste and skill

The analysis of suspected milk de-
livered in this city brings from the
expert the reassuring report that there
Is nothing dangerous TO be found in
It. The report contains one paragraph

to receive milk delivered by the dairy
men. Flies get into these vessels and
impregnate the contents with fever
germs, which multiply in the milk, and
when taken into the system generate
the fatal disease. Only covered recep-
tacles for milk should be used.

London, Sept. % Downing
street was filled at an early hour
this morning by crowd anxious
to catch glimpse of the mbers
as they appeared to attend the cab
met meeting. AS each arrived Mt
the colonial office he was greeted
with widest cheering.
After the meeting adjourned at
l;3O, it was announced that the
cabinet had decided not to take
immediate action on Kruger's note.
1t was also officially announced
that the commander of the British
forces in the field in South Africa
would not go to his post immedi-
ately, but would probably be sent
there in the near future. This an
nouncement is presumably one of
the results of the cabinet meeting
today, and indicates that while the
crisis is postponed, England is
preparing for eventunlities.

Dressed Beef is Lower While Live
Cattle are Higher.

Chicago, Sept. %. The price of
dressed beef has declined from one
fourth to one-half of cent on the

the West. The drop is unusual
in view of the fact that live cattle
are from soc to 75c hundred high

Kesner was miser and formerly

they probably got. There is no
