Charcoal for Poultry.

The benefit which fowls derive from
eating charcoal is, I believe, acknowl-
edged. The method of putting it before
them is, however, not we'll understood.
Pounded charcoal is not in the shape in
which fowls usually find their food, and
consequently is not very enticing to
them. I have found that corn burnt to
the cob, and the refuse-whjeh consists
almost entirely of the grains reduced on
charcoal, and still retaining their perfect
shape-placed before them, is greedily
eaten by them, with a marked improve
ment in their health, as is shown by the
brighter coloy6f their combs, and their
sooner predicting greater average of
eggs to the flock than before. e.-Poultry

FROM sMREy EPORr.

Being without any reliable dis
patches from Shreveport, ourselves, we
rive the following from the Galveston
News, IN being the latest we have seen
up to the time of writing this. The
dispatch from the editor of the Times
we place tho utmost reliance In, and
believe he gives a correct version of
the prevailing sickness. We believe,
further, TINT n grcat deal Of unncces-
sary excitement has nriscn from the
reports mo doubt exaggerated) that
have prevailed:
SHREVEPORT, September3.-A great
deal Of sickness IL prevailing IN the
city and country. A vlrulent fever
broke out few days ago, and num-
Der of deaths occurred. The physi'
clans declare there have been several
eases Of yellow fever, though most Of
the fever IL pernlcIous and bilious. The
origin Ia unknown. One theory is that
the removal Of the mft hnS liberated
an unusual amount Of malaria, This
meets with no favor from the physir
claus
There were few deaths yesterday, and
none to-day. The fever has lost It's
virulencc, and the few new cases nrc
assuming the Intermittent type. Re-
ports abroad arr grossly exaggerated.
The general opinion IL that The disease

from Houston;

that 40 fhr, In Houston, there have
been symptoms approaching to yellow
fever; there has been u high form of
malarial bilious. fever, but ior the past
few days II has been largely on the de-
crease and Houston Is pronounced
healthy.
Whatever may be the result, II would
be wise Ia our City Fathers TO turn
their attention to the condition of the

who plays the most prominent part IN

pcstllerous thieves known to all West

made their presence known In The rnr

half when tho monte men very AFRO
gnntly told him to mind his own busl-
hess. The young man resented the
hint, words led 10 words, blows led 10
blows, The young man managed to
put In u series Of scientific slcdgo-ham-
ner blows, which soon sent the monte
thief bowling and bleeding over the
seats, The other monte men joined in
to take hand, when the other cattle
dr0vcrs met them, and In II short time
punished them fcaritllly. Finding
themselves beaten, they retreated at
the muzzle Of the cattle mems rcvolv-
crs to the sleeping car and locking
themselves up IN the drawing room,
hpdc defiance to further attack.
"a council of war was held In the
front ear, when 1t was agreed that the
monte men should be allowed to hold

telegraphed for. But this arrange
mcnt was not satisfactory to the brave
little drover. He had resolved upon
recovering the old mans money, and
appeared 10 treat with contempt the
knives and pistols pointed at the win
dows of the drawing room.
CATER washing otitho blood from his
face and hands, no walked boldly into

young man dashed open the door ofthc

"Finding that he was determined 10
have |, or do worse, and s9ping the
passengers closing in with cooked re-
volvcrs, tho gamblers gave up the
money. This did not satisfy tho young
drover. He now demanded the sur

ing the arms were given up, and the
monte men held under guard until
the train rolled into Salina, where Il
Sheriti's posse awaited them with

were taken from the train and escorted
to Jail. Conductor BriDkerhoit and
