Saturday and play the Good Intent nine.
Arrangements have been made for a
first-class game of base ball on the first
day of the Far. The famous clubs, De-
troit of Michigan and Philadelphia were
to play three games in the latter city dur
ing our fair week, but through the instru-
mentality of J. Fred Laumaster, they
have decided to play one Of the games on
the Fair grounds as stated above. There
are few clubs that equalthe "Phillies" and
Detroit and lovers of the national game
will enjoy treat rarely offered in this
neighborhood. Knight, formerly of Bur-

six heifers; he took them home and turn.
ed them in with herd of thirteen cows
and one bull One steer died on the dag
DIR. Dyer called and upon holding post
mortem he found externally nothing
remarkable except that the muscles pre-
sented bloodless appearance similar Il
those of a slaughtered animal after the
skin had been taken off, On cutting the
auxiliary artery and vein and removing
the shoulder only drop or two of pale
blood mostly serum, flowed off. The left
lung weighed u, and the right lung 81
pounds and both were congested. TIL,

enlarged; the spleen weighed 6 pounds
and on cutting into il blood almost blacl
oozed out and was almost decomposed

He Immediately quarantined the herd
In the afternoon of the came day another
steer was taken sick and died early the
next day. On the 18th the Doctor found
three steers and one heifer ailing. The
animals were either lying down in un.
natural positions or standing off by them
selves. The muzzle dry and moderately
hot; horns rather cold and of changeablt
temperature; visible mucus, membrane
pale; breathing laborions; excrement
thin and voided in very small quantities
or constipated; urine, which was passed
quite often and at brief intervals. of I
deep reddish-brown color. The animals
showed great Indifference to surroundings
but were restless; those down tried sever.
al times to get up, and though apparently
not lacking muscular strength, they dc
not seem to have sufficient control oyel
their notary apparatus, and several times
broke down in the attempt, and then
made no efforts to correct the unnatural
positions in which they sank down
When one succeeded and got rpon it
legs, it soon broke down, after it hac
staggered few steps and passed water

muscles became still more apparent
They were isolated and appraised. Or

at the farm and killed one steer and held
a post-mortem, with the same results al
before. The remainder of the drove were
traced and quarantined. DIR. Dyer learn
