 Tramp Thrown Out.
 Judge L. H. Fuller ejected from a drug store Thursday morning a tramp who had been making nuisance of himself by panhandling and abusing people. Just before the incident oc- cured the tramp had been making himself obnoxious and became insult ing when he was not given money from a young woman customer who hap pened to be in the store. The fellow was not arrested. but he was not as conspicuous after the incident as he had been for some time previous.

 Frederick Dumas, superintendent of streets, is ready to give streets in the business section of the city another coating of oil, which is badly needed. Thursday the car was expected to. be in and the oil may be applied Satur- day morning.
 If the dwindling sales of fireworks and explosives in this city may be taken as an indicator of the trend of the times, the argument for a safe and sane Fourth has not been in vain The dealers were doing some business in the lines referred to on Thursday, but the sales are far below what used to be expected every year.
 Milk inspector Alert.
 A. M. Bowen, milk inspector, is most carefully attending to the duties of his office during these scorchfng days when milk needs close watching. That Mir. Bowen is onto his job is indicated by the comment of one milk man whe was jolxingly asked why he did not put some water into his milk to help out on a supply that is ex- ceptionaily short in all towns here abeuts at the present time. We might be able te de that if Bowen wasn't SC everlastingly on to his job," was the way that producer sized up the situation. The understanding is that while the milk supply is mighty short here just now that what is being sold in the city is uniformly of very good quality and quite below the re- quirements as to the number eff hac teria.
