A Strange Horse D,sease.

The new horse disease known as the az
otwina, which has been affecting horses in
the eastern cities, has reached Pennsylva.
mia and number of animals are reported
as being affected DIR. Miller, vete rinary
surgeon OF the New Jersey state board OF
health, says he has received letters from
veterinary surgeons from all parts of the
country asking the nature Of the disease,
which is total paralysis of the hind quar-
ters of the animal When attacked the
horse breaks out into violent sweat, and
limps on his hind legs, with the points of
the hoofs only touching the ground II
the animal can be Immediately taken to
shed or stable and its body swung clear of
the gronnd there Is a chance of saving its
life, but II not promptly treated in this
manner no surgeon in the world can relieve
the animals suffering except by killing it.
Another surgeon says that he believes that
the disease would spread but it is not con.
tagious. The cause Of the disease is as
cribed to overeating and is said to be simi-
lar to Brights disease of the kidneys.
THE CoNiNG RAILWAY TIcKET.-A new
kind of railway ticket is coming to the
front. 1t is best explained by taking the
Grand Trunk as an example. That road
prints book of tickets containing 1000 or
500 or so tickets on a page, each ticket
good for one mile. These little tickets are
smaller than postage stamps twenty on a
sheet, and perforated. You can buy two,
twenty or u thousand of them at a fixed
rate, and the company on its part is bound
to accept one of them for every mile you
travel. You will not be required to tell the
ticket seller where you want to go; you
will say give me hundred miles, or tive n
ty miles, or thousand miles, and get on
board and give the conductor nough of
the squares to carry you to your destna
ton. There will then be no such thing as
lay-over tickets, or trouble Of getting tick
cts changed or loss on through tickets not
used-these little tickets will be as good as
money and always current. The road on
its part will be duly protected from tn e
scalpers and the like. The new system has
the endorsement Of the better class OF pas =
sengers, agents and travellers, and has been
adopted on some of the western roads.

EOOIl -IDULTERITION.

of which IS such that it is of interest to peo-
pie everywhere, in st. Paul as well as Chica-
90, and in every part of the country. The
conclusion of the examination may be in
ferred from the opening passage of
the report in which it is stated
that, ''it may be too much, but it is not
greatly too much, to say that every manufac-
tured article Of food and drink now in use,
and many of the drugs and compounds used

THE NEW IOWA LAW.

To-day. (the 4th.) the prohibition OF the
manufacture, sale, importation, handling,
swallowing. or otherwise having anything to
do with spirituous, vinous, or malt liquors,
will 90 into effect in the state Of Iowa. All rail-
WAYS and express comp anies having 1ntercours
with that state have issued orders forbidding
their agents receiving any packages OF the Tor
ridden fluid for shipment to any point in the
uawlteye state. Iowa will be in state of
siege like beleagured town in time of war,
or a blockaded port Everything in the ma
ture of cocktails, nips, schnitts, scnoon-
ners, soIlrs, smashes, juleps, ZWel layers,
and all the rest of the compounds will be
contraband. The tremulous hummer can
no more crawl at dawn to the corner grocery
for something to restore the tranquility OF
his nerves, and to brace him up in time for
another drink There will be an abolition OF
''we won't 90 home till morning" chorus
SEES which have 80 often rung out on the post
midnight hours of Iowa towns aud villages.
There will be no more lodges for the accom-
dqtfon of belated husbands to apply as
poultice to enraged wives; there will be no
more slipping bub uCbNOVh tS00 w Wv :" i'i@''
there will be n decline in the demand for
cloves, and coffee; the uses of sawdust will
be diminished and the occupation OF the
bung starters, the beer-slingers, the cock
tail mixers will, like Othello's be gone.
Iowa has had several cyclones which have
efTaced villages, up-rooted trees, stripped
hens of their feathers, and performed other
destructive acts, but it has never had any
thing strike it with the severity of the tenn
perauce hurricane which win enyelop it with
in the next forty-cight hours. The Germans,
who like their beer, viii not like this blizzard
which in one moment win sweep the foamy
lager from existence. The Irish element who
arc fond of a drop and sup of the pure dis
titled juice of the corn which they themselves
have planted aud harvested, will be equally
distressed over the obliteraton of the stills,
and the cosy barrooms in which 1t was easy,
ard pleasant to spend n weeks wages in an
eve ming. The saioon-keepers viii not like
it, for now they will be forced to choose be-
tween starvation and working for living.
In short, there will be great dissatisfaction in
Iowa after to-day.

Fire Matters.

1t is to be hoped that everybody will be
careful and watchful, and that by the burn
ing of so much powder no accidental fires
may be kindled in the city to-day. There
have been but two fires in the city on the
national holiday in sixteen years. Just six
teen years ago to-day the roof of the old
United States hotel, then standing on the
site of the present Germania hotel on upper
Fort near Tenth street was burned off, the
department at the time being out on a street
parade with their machines decorated with
flowers and eyergreens, and which spoiled
their festivities for the day, the engines be-
ing suddenly stripped of ornaments, which
it had taken several days to get in prepare

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.
How 1t Will be Observed in and About
st. Paul.

st. Paul never has been famous for gene
raj Fourth of July celebrations. With the
exception of 1876 centennial year
there has not been what might be termed
general or genuine Old fashioned Fourth
of July observance in st. Paul during the
past quarter of century. Private parties,
picnics, excursions, trips to the lakes and
occasional general display of fire works com
prises the Fourth of July style in
St. Paul. This year is to be
no exception. If anything there is
to be less celebration than usual, for even
the pleasant social celebration of the old
time Pioneer Hook and Ladder company, is
to be skipped this year. For twenty years or
more this veteran association has been in
the habit of ushering in the Fourth with a
royal anvil salute at 3 a. m, and
at 9 a. m, the company and its
friends would assemble at one of the engine
houses, listen to the reading of the Dec
aratlon of Independence, short address,
followed by impromptu speeches of the MEM
bers, songs by the glee clubs, ETC., conclud-
ing with refreshments. An hour or two
was thus very pleasantly passed.
The advent of the paid department
has not heretofore prevented this annual
gathering of the veteran volunteer hook and
ladder company. Mr.. Presley has always
been foremost in these celebrations, but his
death and the sickness and absence from
the city of some other leading members has
unfortunately caused lapse, and this year
the time honored observance of the day
by the hook and ladder boys is to be omitted.
The only other feature of the day is the local
club regatta, which takes place as usual.
All of the public offices, banks, courts and
public institutions win be closed save the
municipal court, which win hold a
morning session to administer Fourth
of July Justice to offenders against the peace
and good morals of the city.
We append mention of such events as are
of interest to the public so far as they have
been announced:
