Seven herds OF cattle in the vicinity
OF Newport are affected with anthrax.
o new disease. which Ia exciting tho
greatest interest among veterinary
surgeons, not only In this State but
also In Pennsylvania and other PLACES.
DR.. Ewes discovered the disease sew
eral weeks ago. and as soon As he be-
came convinced that II was anthrax he
communicated with DR.. Neale OF the
Experimental Station at Newark and
advised that speedy action be taken
with view to stamping out tho dis
ease II possible. DIR. Neale was also
Impressed TINT something should be
done at once. He wrote to ID. Il. Sal
mon, chief of the Bureau OF Animal
Industry at Washington, asking him
what steps should be taken, and re-
qnesting that some one be sent hero
Wlth authority to take whatever ao-
ease.
Unfortunately, the chief OF tho
bureau and his assistants were oil
away on their vacation and no ona
was sent. 1t was also ascertpined
from Washington that there was no
national law In relation to anthrax,
About the same time 1t was discover
ell tDat there was no state law bearing
on the subject. and that Therefore the
stale authorities could do nothing to-
ward preventing the spread of.the d.
sease. In this predicalnent DR.. Eyea
ana DR.. Neale held a consultation, The
up6hot OF the conference was that n
was decided to send for DR.. Leonard
Pearson OF the veterinary department
OF the University Of Pennsylvania.
Dr. PEARSON came here about ten
Gays ago, and after securing some
virus from cow that had died with

This animal died, and post.m ortem
showed that all the symptoms of
anthrax existed. Twenty-Five cows
have already died. and the milk from
animals affected with it,some OF which
Is being brought into this city, is ex-
ceedingly dangerous to USE
The physicians believe that anthrax
Is vlrulent contagton,and being such
may Affect every species of the animal

STOVES

Are Invaluable and should be investl-
gated by careful housekeepera.
About i,200 are In use In this city and
the number would be greatlyincreabed
II their merits were fully understood.
| As Cookers" they arc unriyalled and
are far superior to coal or wood stoves
In cooking meats OF vegetables.
As Water Heaters" and "Ironers"
they are most useful, especially when
the weather is too warm to use the
Ordinary stove or range.
As heating apparatus that can be
moved from room to >om In few
minutes by tho housekeeper they are
most convenient.
As assistant heaters In rooms where
furnace or steam heat will not ascend
on the viii dward side they have given
great satisfaction.
As permanent heaters in rooms that
cannot lie reached byheating flues they
have giver much comfort.
AS Intermittent heaters, where heat
ie wanted only an hour or two at a
time. they ere economical.
For Offices and stores, when the
weather is rather warm for furnace
fires, they may prevent sickness.
For spiing and autumn use, when
mild days make furnace fires opprcs
sive, troublesome and expensive, they
are comfortable and economical.
As fires that can be started in q min
ute and extinguished in less time, they
are most satisfactory.
As heaters that avoid ASHES, COAL
GAS and DUST they are valued by pru-
dent housekeepers.
Modern Gas Stoves are not only use-
full. but are ornamental.
The gas. the stoves. the fixtures and
the putting in are quite inexpensive.
Samples ana descriptions can be
seen at the Gas Office.

This is the question that seems
most to ngitate Democratic minds.
1t 10 generally conceded that he CAM
not be elected Receiver OF Taxes, EVEN
should the balance OF the ticket bel
suo:essf u, and 1t is feared by know
ing Democrats that II he remains on
the ticket he may endanger the whole
ticket. The question is how to get
Dlckey on the TICKET without making
lit still weaker.
II only he could resign voluntarily
and then turn heartily and support
whoever Is put on in his place there
would be but littlo risk In making the
change, but would Mr.. Dickey do this2
1t 10 feared that he would not. In
which case the ticket would be as weak
with a new man as IL he had remained
upon IL.
An impression is trying to be made
IN favor OF MIR. Dickey by saying that
1t was Governor Reynolds and not
Dickey that wrote the tell-tale letter,
conclusive that although GovernorI
Reynolds wrote the letter. Mr.. Dickey
received 1t and endorsed 1t by his ef-
forts to carry out the object for which
1T was written.
Mr.. j. N. Carswel OF the Farmers
Bank Is now named for Mr.. Dickey's
successor IL the latter wlthdraws from
the ticket.
"A nuInuer OF Democrats are still on
gagged In tho effort to get possession
OF the letter through Shan" Dough-
eIty. For this purpose they got him
intoxicated on Saturday last and they
have kept him in that condition ever
since. still Dougherty refuses to give
up the letter unless the pardon OF
Willie' Calhoun is placed in his
hands.
Some time ago Dougherty quit
drinking, and friend started him In
the produce business on Fourth
street below King. lie kept his
pledge, increased his business and
was doing well until the letter cpl
sole happened and repeated dis
appointments from tho hands OF the
Democrats drove him to drinking, and
now for the sake OF gaining little
political advantage they are keeping
him In an intoxicated condition.
Two OF tho men eagagad in this ne
farious work are Democratic officials,

In Mayor Latrobe's mail In Balti-
more yesterday the following letter
from the wlves-of striking coat makers
was received:
Mayor +. Q. Latrobe. Dear Sir -
The writer's of this letter are about 200
women. Our husbands are all striking
coat.makers. We have small children
and we are all starving, The grocers
and butchers will not trust US any
more, and II 1t keeps on longer you
will find Ls all starved to death.
1t 10 almost nine weeks that this
strike hos been going on, and In the
winter we hardly have work. Each
one OF us talks the matter over with
our husbands. and they sny that the
general secretary, Relchors, came to
Baltimore from New York and took
the law In his own hands ami will not
have them work.
Our husbands can get a glass OF
beer for cents and can go around
with TINT all day, but we cannot do
that. When our husbands come home
we scold them so that they get dis
couraRed and walk out. Wo have
pawned our things. We owe rent for
three or four months.
Please sir, take pity on us and look
Into the matter. See what can be done
to this Mr.. Reichers. We think you
are the only one that can help us.
Yours respectfully, WIVES OF STRIKERS,
