LIQUID QUART
VERSUS
SOLID QUART

Inspector of Weights and Meas
ures Schultz is trying to educate
the merchants of the city as to the
difference between a liquid quart
and solid quart, even if it becomes
necessary to arrest and prosecute
some one to accomplish this re-
suit.
Inspector Schultz has issued an
order that cranberries, nuts and
other solids that are sold by the
quart at this season of the year
must be measured out by means of
the solid quart, which contains Is
per cent more than the liquid quart.
Inspector Schultz found the diff
ference between the two measures
when he wnet out yesterday and
purchased two quarts of cranber-
ries as a test order. The cram
berries were sold by the liquid
quart, which fell away short of the
solid quart. He had some other
purchases made over the city and
found that great many stores
were using the liquid quart in dol
ing out solids, hence the order.

JIMMIE MAY HAVE TO

AGAIN

Since Jimmie Durkin's sanguin-
airy battle-on paper-with the
big bug of the restaurant trust"
the restaurant men who announced
that they proposed to put the eat
ing houses in the saloons out of
business have remained very quiet.
1t is understood that just before
Jimmie put on the literary gloves
with the Goliath of the restaurant
trust the Restaurant Keepers Pro-
tective association had petition
in readiness and an ordinance
drawn to be submitted to the city
council. s4-
The petition has never been filed
and the matter seems to be resting
quietly. One or two restaurant
men seen today say that the move
has not received knockout blow,
as intimated by Durkin, but that
it will appear on the scene in due
time, botted and armed for the
fray.
