PINKEYE IN HORSES.

The San Francisco Call says: Just
at present hundreds of horses in the
East, notably in New York, are pros
trated with peculiar disease, popu-
larly termed pinkeye. The disease
is allied to the epizootic, for which it
is apt tt be mistaken. 1t is not so
serious, however, as that dread dis
ease, although if neglected, extreme
ly fatal. "Pinkeye" derives its name
from peculiar reddish or 'spink"
look assumed by the eye, caused by
inflammation. The throat is much
swollen, and in the latter stages lung
fever sets in. The animal is greatly
emaciated, weak and utterly helpless.
The disorder appears to be epidemic
like the epizootic, and, to certain
extent, contagious, although just in
what manner contagion is conveyed
veterinary surgeons are not agreed.
Since the last wet spell quite a num-
Der of cases of "pinkeye' have devel-
oped in this city, several proving
fatal, one stable near the corner of
Natoma and Fifth having ten sick
horses, six at North Beach and
a stable on Folsom, between Six
teeuth and Seventeenth, four. Many
more are scattered about the city, it
being estimated that 200 or more
horses are affected with the disease.
Should the present pleasant weather
continue a few days longer, veteri-
nary surgeons have hopes that the
disease will disappear; but should
rain come on much trouble is antici-
pated from the disease.

NO DOUBT OF IT.

The following paragraph from one
of "Gath's letters might well be
kept before the eye to assist in form
ing judgement in the Guiteau case !:
One Of the officers of the court said
to me: "There is a man almost total
ly depra7ed-callous to the sufferings
of anybody but himself, coward in
everything that concerns himself, a
liar, thief, dead-bcat; yet, if you
had undertaken to arrest him as a
crazy man before he shot Garfield,
every court in this country would
have decided him sane, aud all the
witnesses would have sworn that he
was responsible for his. acts. "

The Palouse Gazette of the 25th inst.
says All members of the Harris family
and Mr.. Good. who were recently down
with the small pox in this city, have been
pronounced cured, and the city of Colfax
proper is without single case of the dread
disease. There are, however, five cases at
the Pickard place, about mile above town,
but all are doing well and there is no fur
ther fear of the spread of the disease unless
it is brought in from the surrounding towns
and country. As far as the town is con-
cerned there is No danger, and business of
all kinds is being transacted as usual.

Says the Walla Walla State sman: The
settlement of Moscow, situated north of
Clearwater, about thirty miles from Lewis
ton, is much encouraged by the promise of
the agent of the o. r. & N. Co. that in
another year they will have a railway to
carry off the surplus grain. The road will
run by Colfax and connect probably with
the Northern Pacific. The country around
Moscow is one of the most fertile and pro-
ductive in the whole United States; and
has house on every quarter section. The
mountains adjacent are mineral bearing, and
we know of good iron having been discov-
cred somewhere thereabouts in 1866. Tim-
ber is very plentiful also, consisting of
magnificent cedar. pine, fir, An amount of
grain can be raised there which will leave
the whole Walla Walla valley in the shade.

Says the Walla Walla Statesman, The
following dispatch has been received from
Manager Will Buckley: '.Trains run regular
to Dayton ON and after November 30th, but
will bring no person or baggage out of Day
ton that has been exposed to smallpox J"
It is understood that there is some objection
among our citizens to the trains running
even now, but to our mind the company
are entitled to at least little gratitude
for their prior action in not allowing trains
to run when the disease was raging. In
other parts of the United States, where the
same complaint has existed far worse than
at Dayton, the trains have run as usual
The orders that have been issued not to
allow persons or baggage that have been
exposed should be carried ont to the letter.
That Walla Walla has escaped the contagion
is owing to good luck more than to good
management. for our quarantine arrange
ments have not been very effective, and
our citizens have themselves alone to thank,
by the personal care they have taken, that
they have escaped.

A RAILROAD SHARK,

The New York Star of August Sd
printed the following, which it would
be well for our farmers to carefully
consider, coming as it does from a
disinterested source, and suggesting
to them what we have ever maintain
ed here, that we must look to the
Legislature for guarantee against OPP
preston:
"No man on Wall street has
budded in so short a time into un-
pleasant notoriety as Henry Willard
the Australian railroad adventurer
and speculator. Having swallowed
up the Northern Pacific road by
means of his "blind pool" he has
established in Wyoming Territory a
of rates that is truly alarm
ing. Tle charges "a cents a bnshe'
to transport grain distance OF 27O
miles, and all freight of small guam
titles must pay on 100 pounds. The
people in that section, having no
other means of transportation, must
either pay Willard his exhorbitant
demands or let their material go to
waste, while he occupies palatial
offices in New York and rolls in
wealth, every dollar of which is the
fruit of exhorbitant demands for
transportation. Good, healthy leg
islation in Wyoming will dispose of
railroad sharks like Villaad.''

ROYAL Children.

American Register.I
The majority Of people have an idea
that royal children are entirely above
those amusements which delight the
ordinary youngster. This is alto
gether an error. A gentleman Just
arrived in England gave a picnic party
in New South Wales some three OF
four months ago in honor of the two
sons of the Prince Of Wales, whose
presence formed the feature of the
festival | said to him, What kind
of boys are they2" "Well," be re-
Joined, they are more children than
most youths of their age. While the
repast was going on they chiefly
amused themselves by pelting each
other across the table with bits ofbreadl
Very like their father; in fact, very
like a Wales" Something like three
and twenty-five years ago, the heir
apparent to the English throne slept
in an inn in a very desolate and wee
town. | should think this must have
been one of the humblest of his royal
highness' hating places. Directly
after the departure Of the distinguished
visitors, the landlord gained import
ance, and began to thank the Lord
that he was not as other publicans, !
well remember the opinions he ex-
pressed concerning the Prince. He
said he was terrible" playful, and
that as o o as he was up in the morn
ing he was out chasing the cocks aud
hens out of their very lives.

Grave OfHenry Clay's Daughter.

LEBANON, o., November II, 1881.
But few people, perhaps, are aware
that a daughter Of Henry Clay lies in
the old Baptist graveyard, in the west
ern part Of town. The tomb, or sep
ulchre, is in the northern part
of the graveyard, in the shad-
ow of the old Baptist Church,
and near sycamore tree,
whose wide spreading branches reach
out and droop over it, Near by is the
grave Of Joshua Collect, one of the
first lawyers Of Lebanon, and after
wards Supreme Judge of the State
Henry Clay was Secretary Of State in
the Cabinet of John Quincy Adams,
and.was on bis way from his home to
Washington when his daughter took
sick here and died. The inscription
on the large fiat stone that forms the
lid, or top part of the stone vault or
tomb, is almost illegiOle from constant
exposure to the elements. 1t reads as
follows: ITO the memory of Eliza H
Clay, daughter of Henry and Lucretia
Clay, who died on the llth of August,
1925, aged twelve years, during a jour
ney from their residence at Lexington,
KY to Washington City Cut off in
the bloom of a promising life, her
parents, who have erected this monu
ment, console themselves with the be-
lief hat she now abides in Heaven.
