Pink.eye, and Its Remedy.

The following are the symptoms
of tn new horse disease called pink
eye, which has recently made its APP
pearance Fevers, rigors, dizziness
succeeded by swelling of the eye
lids, discharge of tears, pain and
swelling of the joints, etc. The color
of the outer membranes of the eye
and eye.lids is changed TO pink,
hence the name pink-eye. Death is
caused by tb plugging of the blood
vessels of the liver and heart. The
following is given as remedy: -Four
drachms of the best aloes as cathar-
tic. Dissolve two ounces of saltpeter
10 bucket of water, and give as a
drink, to act on the kidneys. The
supply of food should be moderate =
bran mash and hay will be sufficient
for several days. If the hearts &C
tion begins to fail, give carbonate OF
ammonia in half. drach doses. 1t the
horse is weak when seen, give oil in
stead of aloes. If limbs are swollen,
battle in warm water, rub with lima
ments and bandage.

"No."

Pine Nuts and Dirty Fingers.

Old Haynes, our observing me-
chanic and fellow citizen, has been
specializing on the cause of tie in
crease of dirty hands as cold wealth
er approaches. His observations
have exploded the idea that il is be-
cause the water is getting colder and
washing is consequently not so
agreeable, and he has arrived at the
conclusion that the roasted pine nuts
sold by the Indians at this season,
are the true origin of the CRIME.
Almost every man has a pocket full
Of smoke blackened nuts, and dirty
fingers are epidemic.

The SutrO Social.

The entertainment given by the
Sutro Social Club was in keeping
with the reputation of that hosplta-
BILE place. Although their dance on
last Friday evening was the first of
their series, everything went off in
good shape. Their committee knew
how to do things completely, and
everything went tremendously. The
music and supper were excellent, and
nothing was wanting to increase the
enjoyment but little more room on
the floor. The Club is to blame for
this last defect, as the reputation OF
Its members as providers of enter
tainments attracted, and always will
attract crowd of dancers. The cir
cumstance that the dance was given
by the Sutro Social Club renders it
unnecessary to state that everything
was done for the comfort and pleas
ure of their guests. This is but the

SnOaU Blindness.

Snow blindness has been quite an all
ment during the past few weeks. 1t has
been especially prevalent among those
who were engaged in shoveling snow on
the railroads. One of the worst cases
here was that of James G. Ford, of the
Third ward, who had assisted in raising
the snow blockade on the Chicago, Mil
waukee & ST. Paul Railway. For sever
al days he was entirely Frustrated
by the disease and fears for his eye
sight was entertained at one time.
He is now, however, all right again
and attending to his regular duties at
the junction shops. There were some
other serious cases here, but no fatal re-
suits followed. On the Racine & South
western division of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & ST. Paul railroad, whole gang,
consisting of over fifty men, were made
snow. blind, and many of the men are
suffering severely. On the Chicago, Mil
waukee & ST. Paul railroad, near James
vile, eighteen shovelers were made snow
blind by the reflection of the sun on the
snow, and had to be led home Reports
from other lines state that large numbers
of the shovelers engaged were forced to
quit work on this account. Among 9TH
ers, Herbert Burlingame, station agent
of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railroad, at Hanover, became snow-blind

The bill to restore the Hall Compro-
mise Law passed the Senate yesterday,
and is expected to pass the Assembly TO
day. This is gratifying news to every
one who feels an interest in the future
welfare and prosperity of our city. Let
us now go to work with determination
to fulfill the obligations of this measur e
and show to our creditors that we are
willing to do what is reasonable and right
in the settlement of our bonded debt
The voters have an important mater be-
fore them at the spring election of cnoos-
ing bond commissioners, under the Hall
law who will be united and earnest in
carrying out the provisions of this act of
settlement. Good, reliable, faithful men
must be elected for Bond Commissioners
ia each ward or else the law will be of
no effect whatever. If bond commits
sioners are chosen who bid defiance to
the compromise plan, then all attempts
at the settlement of our bonded difficult
ties are at an end and dark and gloomy
future rises before us.

COUNTY NEWS.
JEFFERSON.

Within the memory of the oldest in
habitant there has never been so much
snow in Jefferson County as at the present
time. Reliable information puts it at
four feet on the level as it lays in the
woods. Old settlers say they never saw
the like, and hope never to see it again.
All business was suspended, except the
breaking of roads.
Mr.. Ashley, timber inspector on the
Madison and Milwaukee road, started for
Madison on snow shoes from this city last
Friday. Not heard from since.
Postmaster Forsyth started out for
Watertown, yesterday morning as mail
carrier with a team. He had hard
time getting through. He has the thanks
of all for his efforts in breaking the mail

A freight from the north reached this
station at half past eleven yesterday, A.

At the administrator sale of SO acres
of land from the Rockwell estate, which
was held on Tuesday. John Spry was
the successful bidder at $50 per acre.
The land lies near the home of the late
Rev. Mr.. Pease, south of this city.
The present winter has been quite try
ing to aged and sickly people. An in
sufficient amount of sunshine is probably
the cause, and not, as many suppose, the
great depth of snow.
Had the snow blockade held on week
longer it would have bred famine in
Fort Atkinson in butter and fresh beef.
There was a jolly party of commercial
tourists that found food and lodgings
with mine host, Davis, of the Green
Mountain House, during the week of the
