COMMUNICATIONS.
The PIeuro-PneumonIa.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In reference to your editorial urging the passage of the bill for the eradication of the pleuro-pneumonia in this country, as you truly state it is an heroic measure and one that should only be taken after all other measures have failed, entailing as it does immense pecuniary loss to the community at large In preference to this measure which you advocate beg to submit for the benefit of the public, and more especially of that portion who are owners of cattle who are afflicted with this dread disease, the follow ing proposition: If any person owning cat tie affected with this disease will communi- cate with me will guarantee to cure them and also prevent the disease affecting the remaining part of the herd.
 The above facts have laid before Profes- sor Brewer of this city and am now in com- munication with the Hon. George Loring, commissioner of agriculture, Washington, D. C.. R. A. CUNNING.

The people of Brooklyn. New York, are considerably stirred up by the report that 8 large part of the cattle in the vicinity of that city suffering from pleuro- pneumonia are sent to the slaug ghter-house and sold by the butchers for food. Of course the butchers say there is not word of truth in the @ port, but there is good reason to believe that 1t is not altogether untrue.

The special session of the Texas legislature which has just ended was called for the pur
 pose of dealing with the great fence-cutting
 question. A law making provision for the punishment of fence cutting was passed,
 another appropriating fifty thousand dollars for the employment of detectives and rangers to catch offenders. and still others to stop
 the abuses which have provoked and some times justified the cutting. One imposes heavy
 penalties for fencing in land without owner
 ship or lease, another provides for the keep | ing open of highways across the immense ranges legitimately fenced, and so on. Now | the trouble will be to enforce all these laws. On the State railroads in Sweden, says Engineering, there is generally 8 doctor for | every thirty-two miles of line, and in this way forty-four doctors are employed by the government. The private railroads have 8
 similar system. The medical men examine | all applicants for employment and reject
 those physically disqualified and especially 1 by defects of sight or hearing. They also | give their services to and attend to all in- | jured by accidents on the line, to regular |
 occasional employees while engaged Tn service,
 and to laborers in the shops who have paid
 the same contributions as those enga5 5sd in
 working the line, and also to their families.
 No exception is made in the case of those
 who suffer from injury or disease caused by | their own fault.
 Further tests made with the Nordenfelt gun
 by the British naval authorities exhibit the
 wonderful capacity of that weapon. It seems | that 8 hardened steel bullet of seven and
 one-fourth ounces weight, at range of 300
 yards, penetrated, at an angle of forty-fve

between the centers of the eyes is three

Sometimes this is increased from one

The following strange story is related
by the Dhubri correspondent CT a Calcutta
paper; The Bengali jailer at Gauhatl
seems TO have given offense 70 Marwaree
in the station In connection with some
pecuniary transaction. The Marwaree
smelt out somehow that the jailer was
making fortune out OF the prisoners, and
gave information TO the European super.
intendent Of the Jail that things were not
as they should bo. He was asked to sign
n charge, and really did so, and on a
search-warrant being obtained, the native
jailer's quarters we're found TO be verit-
able depot for all the stolen goods in the
station for many months past.
But the story did not end here, and,
though II may be termed a romance, the
facts are worthy Of more than newspaper
record. It transpired that this BenEali
jailer had to look TO the safety Of two old
offenders who were then undergoing long
sentences OF imprisonment IN the jsil. he
would lot them out after dark TO commit
burglaries and thefts, and let them In
again before daylight, pocketing the pro-
ceeds OF all their doings during the night,
and laying up the store which was after
ward 80 rudsay broken into.

BILE between them and the ghost, who wa

BILE between them and the ghost, who wa
now seen to move beneath the tree. Wha
they reached the neighborhood of civiliza
tion the widest excitement prevailed. In
deed, panic seemed to have visited tha
hitherto quiet spot. Mothers screamed fo'
their children, and husbands for thet
wives, while the calmer Of the mob fell up
on their knees and sought relief in prayer
While things were at this high stage
excitement white figure was seen to ap
proach, and once moreamany sped off, ter
ror lending swiftness to their usually slug
gish feet. Some, however, recognized thu
white figure as that Of certain plastere
of the neighborhood by the name Of Dono
van. And thus the ghost mystery wa
solved.
As Donovan was returning from worl
that evening, clothed in his ordinary work
ing clothes, the same being, as is customary
with plasterers, made Of white material, HI
stopped in to see certain friend. Will,
there he imbibed little too freely OF fire.
water, and as he.started for home was feel
ing considerably mellow. Being in hap
py-go-lucky sort of mood when he reached
the neighborhood of the haunted orchard,
he did not hesitate to cross its neglected
and much Stunned precincts, in order that
he might the moro readily reach home.
When about three-quarters through he
stopped under tree to light his pipe. That
he might the better accomplish this, he
leaned his back against 1t, and thus dozed
off to sleep. 1t was in this position that
he was first seen by the frightened traveller
and afterwards accosted by the inquisitive
mob headed by the blacksmith. ..ym
Donovan said chat hearing loud voice
he opened his eyes and gazed about him in
semi-conscious sort of way. On making
out that number Of men were about him,
his first thoughts were that job was being
worked at his expense. 1t was this that
decided him on answering as he did. And
thus the ghost of Parker Hill orchard dis
solved into tipsy, harmless plasterer.

7erse upon its grand side. Thus the terms

verse upon It's grand side. Thus the terms
shell and Heaven" have sprung out Of this
struggle and stand for the awards that
will be given when the day Of battle shall
end for each soldier. The award is as GER
tain as the conflict
Inasmuch as Christ came as the most
thrilling leader in this vast struggle and
let fall some words about coming to the
world again in more of power and glory,
1t is thought by manythat He will at some
time suddenly appear, and not as poor
carpenters son, but as King of the ma
tions of men. Should He thus come in
power the faces OF the wicked would in
deed turn pale, and the sunbeams
Of love and happiness long hidden
by clouds OF sin would instantly fall all
over our globe. Our earth would sud-
denly show forth its grandeur. No picture
OF the future, as men judge, can surpass
this in sublimity nor in the outlines OF
common justice, but the evidence OF such
a personal reign Of Christ is inadequate.
God may not judge as wo do, and may
know of an end Of the long battle more
glorious than this dream. This we seem
to know, that an end will come; will come
with defeat to the dragon and his hosts,
and with matchless triumph to the Man
of Nazareth and His followers, conscious
or unconscious of His leadership. Our
world had in the far past some wonderful
origin; it has advanced along an amazing
path; that it is moving toward some thrill.
ing destiny we can not doubt. In the in
tervening years stand as near as possible
to the Father and the Son Of God and OF
man, for then no evil shall befall thee,
neither any plague come nigh thy dwell
ing, for He shall give His angels charge
over thee to keep thee in all thy ways.
They shall bear thee up in their hands lest
thou dash thy foot against q stone.
