about the condition of a slaughter
house or pig pen conducted by some
Chinese at point of Mill creek Just
south of the penietntiary and Coun-
ty Health oaicer j. o. Van Wrinkle
investigated the same with the re-
suit that he ordered the proprietor to
tear 1t down or burn It down. The
Chinaman accordingly set fire to il
