number Of attempts to enter TIE
place, but was emphatically denied
by The doctor, who objected to the in
spectiOn. The sanitary inspectors
have been making a house to house

are Kept ia sanitary condition, and 20
effect a prompt report Of all cases Of
sickness.

port the condition of every place Wis.
tied each day, to the city health off,
Ger. The law allows Of no discrimfna-
ton, and the inspector claims that
there has been no discrimination and
that every place is reported on.
DR.. Heron, however, refused 70
recognize the authority of the officer
and could not be persuaded to yield.
He will appear before Judge Laney
this morning to answer to the charge
of interfering with an officer in the
discharge of his duty.
The inspector swore out the war.

Health Officer J. H. Pierpont who
