DR.. D. E. Salmon, Chief of the Blu
reau of Animal Industry, gives the re-
suit OF his recent investigation at
Chicago concerning the disease of cat
tie known as "lumpy-jaw." The re-
port shows splendid results from the
use OF POTASSIUM iodide. Over $50
affected cattle, many quite seriously,
having large tumors about the head
and jaw, were treated and afterwards
100 Of them slaughtered. A CAREFUL
examination of the carcasses and in
ternal organs was made. OF the
100 animals killed IS had been cured.
DR.. Salmon regards this test
as indicative ofthe value of the iodide
treatment. He answers the OBJ.
lection raised as to the futility OF ad-
vising farmers to undertake the cure
of their cattle with medicine costing
So a pound, by stating that in the
experiments recently completed, not
oven the worst cases received doses
Of medicine costing over Z cents daily,
and in no case was more than one
pound of medicine administered in
the treatment of any one animal.
The report shows that the disease is
not contagious. Twenty-one head
of healthy. cattle were kept in. the
closest contact with the diseased ami
mails experimental upon, rel to the
extent Of eating from the troughs
soiled with the matter discharged
from the tumors, without showing
any signs OF being affected by it.

Great Generals Seem to Love a Bat
tie on Sunday.
Many Of the most famous BATTLES of
history have been fought on Sunday.
To 60 no further back than the be-
ginning OF the present century, the bat
tie Of Eylau, won Feb. 8, 1907, by Ma
poleon over the Russians and Prus-
slams, and the battle of Friedland,

Among the Roses.

Bags full of roses, baskets full OF
roses, carts laden with roses; roses,
roses, a feast of roses, a surfeit of
roses, if that is possible. The women
stick roses in their long braided hair,
the men in their belts, the children
pull them and play with them and
leave them on the road to die.
There is rose leaf jam to eat-very
fresh and sweet it Island there is rose
leaf syrup to drink. Every vase and
vessel is full of roses; they drop on
you from unexpected places; great
punches of bright pink heads lying on
the ground admonish you asyou walk;
you can make a bed OF them if you
will; go to the granary-rosary I sup
pose it should be called-and there
you will find as soft and sweet a
couch as was ever laid the "Arabian
Nights" for Eastern princes to sleep
on. =.
This is how it came about that I
saw such a multiplicity of roses. We
fulfilled q long-cherished scheme and
went to Kezanlik, the Valley of Roses.

garden of Turkey. e

Dend Cowboys Identified.

Nashville, Neb., Special, Feb. 7.-Isaac
Humphrey, a beef contractor. at whose
camp the massacre occurred, wired the
agency to-day that he had arrived at
the camp and fond things in a terrible
state. The bodies of the murdered men
were still lying where they had fallen.
The men nave been identified as RED
Yorer of Hermosa and E. NJ. Bennett
of Breckenridge, Mo-. cowboys; the 9th
ers being mere boys living near the
agency, who had been looking for horses
and had stopped at the cabin oyer night.
Their names were Kelley and Bacon.
The canard regarding the drinking in
Cow camp and the following drunken
ness is false in every partiular. The
men were asleep, unconscious Of the
approach of the Indians. Capt. Brown,
the agent. established a camp of fifteen
it all wintr. One of Two Stisk's sons,
although badly wounded, escaped and is
still ut large. Two Sticks, the Indian
shot through the lungs, died to-day.
Friendly Indian cowboys from the
agency say that trouble can be expected
at any moment. The agent, Capt.
Brown, is preparing for trouble. DR..
Eastman, the Indian doctor. and family
left for the East to-day to remain. The
agency buildings suffered by a slight
fire to-day. 1t was at first supposed
that the Indians had set the fire.

woMEN's YOUTH RENEWED.

Authenticated Cases Of Natural Re-
juvenation--Some Female Gen.
tenarians.
Tissot attempts to account for the
greater longevity of women as CON-
pared to that Of men by The theory
that the large amount Of talking for
which women are noted is a healthful
exercise that promotes the circulation
Of the blood without overtaxing the
vital organs. This may ito for a cyni-
cal French joke, but the Detroit Free
Press thinks the real explanation
pei ably is the quieter and more rcgu-
lar life that a women lead, thus pre-
venting the premature wear-out Of the
nervous system. One of the most IA
nous Of female centenarians was the
countess Of Desmond, who lived to be
145 and died in the reign Of James I.
from the effects of an accident. This
wonderful woman found herself, at the
the age of 100, so lively and strong as
to be able to take part in a dance,
and when she was 40 she Travelled
all the way from Bristol to London
no trifing journey In those days-in
order to personally attend to some
business affairs. Lady Desmond is,
however, quite thrown into the shade
by a French woman, Marie Prion. who
died in st. Columbe in June, 1885
it is said-at the wonderful age Of
1873. Towards the end of her life she
lived exclusively on goats milk and
cheese. Although her body was so
shrunk that she weighed only forty
six pounds she retained all her mental
faculties to the last. 1t is an extraor-
binary but incontestable fact that some
women at the age when most people
die undergo a sort of natural process
Of rejuvenation-the hair and teeth
grow again. the wrinkles disappear
from the skin and sight and hearing
reacquire their former sharpness. A
Marquise de Mirabeau is an example
of this rare and remarkable phenome-
non. She died at the age of eighty-six,
but a few years before her death she
became in appearance quite young
again. The same change happened to
a nun of the name of Marguerite Yer
dur, who at the age of sixty-two lost
her wrinkles, regained her sight and
grew several new teeth. When she
died, ten years later, her appearance
was almost that Of a young girl.

Make Good Indians.
Sioux City, Iowa, Special, Feb. IA
government official from the Pine Ridge
country, who is in the city to-day, says
matters on the reservation are in q much
more serious condition than is indicated
by the dispatches relative to the recent
troubles. He says all dispatches have to
be inspected and edited by Agent Brown
before they are sent out. This was done
with the dispatches about the murder of
the four cowboys. Their murder was the
result of ghost dancing, in which many
of the Indians are engaged. When the
weather moderates, he says, there will
almost certainly be an outbreak. Set
tiers are %petitioning to have troops put
on the reservation.
Washington, Feb. 7.-Secretary Noble
has received a telegram from Inspector
Cisney at Pine Ridge, S. D., in which he
says that the police have returned from
their pursuit of the cowboy murderers,
and report having killed, about sixteen
miles from the agency, three Indians who
participated in the murder.
Chicago. Feb. mo additional particu
lars about the Indian trouble at Pine
Ridge agency have been received at de-
partment headquarters here. In fact
any information already obtained came
through direct sources. Capt. Higgins,
who is one of the most experienced Of
fcers in the department, said to-day:
mo deliberate OF premeditated out
break of Indians would be made at this
time of year. Until the grass was in
good condition no movement would be
made. The fight the other day seems to
have been a sporadic sort Of affair, the
outcome of some sudden quarrel. 1t
would seem to me that a general good
feeling exists at Pine Ridge as the In
dams, if they are in large numbers, would
not have submitted so readily to the
prompt measures taken by the Indian
notice."

Pine Ridge Agency. S. d., Special,
Feb. DIR. Eastman, the agency doctor,
left for the East Tonight. The doctor
is a full blooded Sioux. and is better ac-
auainted with the movement of his tribe
than anybody on the agency. In regard
to the lattcr's affairs he says that it
will lead to an outbreak without a
doubt. The Indians since the war of
1890 have been brooding over the af-
fair and are dissatisfied. They have no
complaint against the government in this
one particular; they get enough to eat
and wear; but they do not like the ac-
ton of the government toward the hos
tiles. Those Indians after the war were
pampered and shown attention, while
the friendly Indians were not even
thanked for the part they played in the
suppression of the revolt. They openly
say they will never help the government
against their people. They do not
boast this openly and encourage m out
break. but that is their sentiment
privately expressed.
The dissatisfaction in this regard can
be seen on every hand and the authori-
ties know it, but will not acknowledge
it. Young-M an-Afraid-of- His Horses pro-
fesses friendship to the whites, but at
heart he is in sympathy with the others.
All the active head men are sore against
the authorities. and in case of revolt,
while perhaps not taking sides with the
hostiles, will lend them power stealthily.
Even Capt. Swords. justice of the peace,
and one of the best educated Indians
on the agency and the most powerful
man Of the nation. is in sympathy with
the Indians. and has said that in case
of a revolt he would stand aloof and not
help the whites. He said the same thing
a year ago when at Washington, ID. q.

statement.
