With the silence and stealthiness of a burglar did the paw- food inspector, iC. L. Hutchins, arrive in Decatur ih.t . , morning. His presence was first made ' I I known when he stopped two milk wag- ' ons on Second street and proceeded to . " investigate whether or not their own-1 ers were following the law. The first 1 wagon tested about three-fourths bad, the milk being tested on the sediment found in the bottom of the bottle, while the second warden was found to be tn excellent condition. Just what conditions the inspector found in the various business houses of the city 1 is not known at the present, but it I is safe to say that the greater portion of the stores has endeavored to live ‘ | up to bis suggestions as nearly as pos ',sible.
