the chair of practical theology
in the Garrett Biblical In

THE NEW SUPERINTENDENT

The selection of Prof. J. E. Klock as
superintendent of the city schools during
the temporary vacancy occssioned by the

think give very general, satisfaction.

with the school work of Emporis,
was principal of the High
school some years ago and
before elected to the office Of county
superintendent. taught in this county
since his graduation at the State Normal
in 1874. Prot. Klock is one of Lyon
county's boys, having grown up in this
community, and we note with pleasure
this new honor conferred upon him.

DR.. A. A. Holcombe, veterinary sur
geon of the state of Kansas, returned to
Topeka Tuesday. He came here to inves-
tigate the disease am ong cattle, reported
In the Americas notes of this paper some
days ago. The doctor visited the farm
of Mr.. N. ]. Williams on Allen creek
about four miles northeast of Amerlcus,
and examined the dead and ailing cat
tie. He very quickly pronounced the
malady, not an infectious disease, but
q disorder called "ImpsctIon of the
Third Stomach" and caused by lack
of sufficient protection. lack of
proper feed and lack of drinking wa
ter. Mr.. Williams has lost twenty-five
head of cattle and at present there are
six head afflicted. This visit of DR..
Holcomb and his statement of the matter
should put at rest all fears of any conta-
g;on among cattle. but should admonish
stockmen and farmers to give their stock
great care and see that they do not thus
suffer from lack of proper protection
from the weather, and from insufficient
feed and water
