SweatA Skim-Milk Scheme. "Persons who sell meat and milk OP tha Charlotte market will And Dr. Adam Fisher, the city Inspector, a very active, painstaking, thorough going man. He la full of energy and knowa hi business. No one doubta that Charlotte people have eaten much unwholesome meat and drunk much sorry milk within the hut dec nde or two, not because the dealers have been dishonest but for the rea son that some of them were Ignorant and others Indifferent. No honest meat or milk man ned fear the city, for It Is he who will profit by the In spector. The Ignorant, honest man Is always willing to learn but It Is tha crooked mnn that Dr. Fisher will give trouble. PR. FISHER'S FIRST HEHV1CE, "A certain city official was In Mc Manus' stock yards last Wednetiday and noticed an old steer, which was conspicuous (r his poverty-stricken, wretched condition. Later he learn ed that Mr. Kidney Hwaln, who runs a combination beef market and grocery store on the corner of Gra ham and Twelfth stroctH. had bought the poor, sick steer and butchered him. Thu animal was so fertile and so sick that he, being unable to make the trip to the butc her pen. lay down on the way and had to be carted away. Ills legs were swollen and dissolution hurl set In. Th final sumv mons was nnt far off This beef had been purchased for the paltry sum of 112 and was designed for unsuspect ing customer. Had he been sound and In proper condition for the mar ket he would have brought at least $50. The story of the old steer cir culated. The city officer who had noticed him In the stock yards tele phoned to Ir. Klxher and told him to look Into the matter at once. WHAT I)K. FISIIKK FOUND. Dr. Fisher went straightway to In vestigate. When seen by an Observ er reporter yesterday afternoon, and questioned about the steer Dr. Fisher said; "Yes, a city officer called my at tention to the steer. I went to the butcher shop and found It dark and unsanitary. I asked to see the meat and the Ice box was opened. Kvery 'piece of meat that remained ther was bruised, as If the steer had been beaten with sticks and stones, und was sweating. Komethlng exuded from th Joint and the meat was in bad condition. 1 condemned It on general principles and had It sent to the crematory. I cleaned out the box. I do not know what killed the steer. Some of the (eer hail been sold." WORTH THE I'RU'K OK THE IN SPECTOR. These mho know the details of this tory believe that Dr. Fisher has al ready earned his salary for one year. Tha very thought of a lot of people feasting upon such a carcass Is for bidding. It Is alleged that the steer weighed about .00 pounds when his Wright should have been 1.000 or 1.200. Hr. Hwaln was warned not to re peat the offense, and, this being his first transgression agiilnst the new ordinance, he was told to go and of fend no more. Dr. Fisher and other city officials are determined to break up such practices. 8KIM-MII.K BOTTLE SCHEME. It was reported yesterday that cer tain milk sellers had prepared to sell what they call (Team in "sklin-mllk" bottles so that If they are charged with selling watered milk for cream they can say "why. that milk was sold If, a 'sklm-mllk' bottle." I'ntrons ur asked to look out for sue h frauds. Cream must be cream and sklm-mllk must be that or better. TUB VHK OF THE -A17TOMOB1IJC. Mr, Osmond I. llarrUiger and Ilia White) Mattilno Make a Fine Ilun, Mr. Osmond LT Barrlnger, despite the aldermen who are laying for -his scalp, continues to maka brilliant runs In his White steamer.. Wednesday afternoon. Dr. Joe Graham and others wanted ta go to Macpelah. II miles northwest of Charlotte, where his nelce was to be married at I o'clock. The automobile was the last resort as the trojns had departed and the horse was not equal to the demands. At t:SS Mr. Barrlnger and his party rolled through the streets at the al dormanlc rate of four miles an hour. He was on his way to Macpelah, the country home of the Grahams. The clip. was quickened a little after the automobile passed out of the city and started on its way to Ttoizelle's ferry. At 7:45 the silent but awlft machine took up at the Graham residence. After having witnessed the mar riage, taken part In the reception that followed and chatted pleasantly until late hour Mr. Barrlnger got to gether his passengers and came full tilt to Charlotte, arriving at 12:45. The only worry experienced on the way back was at Roaxelle's. wnere, the ferryman had fallen asleep and could not be aroused by ordinary methods. Three-quarters of an hour was con sumed there trying to bring the river man back to life. This run was not made In record- breaking time but It is considered all right when the road and time are taken Into account. riiMrloltM I lank era fiolna- to ToxawaV A number of Charlotte bankers will , c"' attend the meeting of the North Caro lina Hankers' Association to be held at Lake Toxaway, at Toxaway Inn, on the 19th. 20th and 21st.

If as many as 25 persona go from Charlotte the Southern Railway will furnish a Charlotte coach for the trip. The rate from here will be what Is called a certificate rate, being $7.45 for the round trip, or $8.S to return as late as October. If thoso who Intend going will notify the uptown ticket office of the Southern or The Observer reporters the matter of the special car will be taken up. FLOWER DAY TO BE OBSERVED.
