paper on Reading for pupils by C.
E. Rugh, which was discussed by
Messrs Bates, Binder, Holmes and

Texas Fever.

The junction City Republican has
the following bit of news regarding an
outbreak of Texas fever among the cat
tie on Clark's creek in Davis county:
The farmers in the vicinity of Clark s
creek are experiencing considerable
financial loss to say nothing about a
great amount of annoyance by what is
supposed to be Texas fever brought in
the neighbOrhood by cattle driven there
to feed. Whether or not it is Texas
Fever we are unable to say, but over
forty head of cattle have been lost.
Fred Settgast lost eight head, and
many of his neighbors have been called
upon to contribute in like numbers.
There have been some losses among
the cattle of Dickinson county this fall
but none, SO far as we have learned,
have been attributed to Texas fever.
We hope the scourge may not invade
our territory.

Coal F0nnd.

We were shown today specimens of
coal found on the farm of Andy Wolf,
nine miles north of this city. Mr..
Wolf was sinking a well when he found
two-inch vein at 22I feet; he sank
lower and found fattering indications
which lead those proficient in mining
to believe that there is fine bed of
coal beneath. Some pieces of coal
were experimental with and found to

revenue of about $4,000 00. This is prac-
tically taken off three articles-tobacco,
sugar and alcohol used IN the arts. The
additions to the free list in the senate bill
are few and the amount of revenue reduc-
ton gained thereby relatively triting. The
reduction in the tariff schedules of The senate
bill outside of sugar amount to little more
than adjustment, and some of them will
increase receipts instead of decreasing them
The free list consists principally of drugs
and chemicals, but contains also jute, man
lila, and ssal grass. 1t does not contain lum-
Der, soap, salt, wool, cotton bagging, nor
borax, all of which appear on the free list Of
