Texas, or Southern fever, has made
It's appearance at Newark and farmers
there are watching their COWS closely
In hopes nf preventing the spread OF
the terrible disease.
The disease has made Its appear

and thus lar two COWS have died.
There are four others sick, but DIs,
Neale and Ewes hope to save the lives
OF two OF the sick bovines. The dis

pasturing of herd OK cattle from
Norfolk, Va, on the Held.
Texas foyer Is most peculiar dis
ease. DR.. II. p, Ewes talked of these
peculiarties last night Tho disease
comes only through u tick. similar In
size to the tick found on dog. THIS
tick makes Its home OH the hide OF the
Texas or Southern COW, and as long as
II stays there does little harm to that
animal. Cows from below tho Della
ware. Maryland. and Virginia lines
have immunity from the disease. but
cows above these lines are likely to
succumb to 1t. The tick travels north
on the Southern cows back and drops
of III the pasture field and lays its
eggs. The young ticks find a lodging

disease does not spread through the
cattle except by means of the ticks.
The process is tho same in each case
This matter of roXas fever has beer
the subject of much investigation by
the Federal Government for years
Tests are made on a government farm
at Washington. 1t was found that il

put together, and the ticks on tn,
Northern cow. she would take the dis
ease. Should all the ticks he taker
from tho rrSns COW, the home COW
would not get the foyer. One tick ant
one lite would lie enough, however
TO cause it. No other animal except
the cow ever takes the disease.

pastured will not he used for the past
urago OF cattle until after the frOs'
which will destroy the young ticks
Ihirty-iive or forty ticks were iount

james Il. Johnson Supreme Archon
OF the Order OF Heptasophs, or S. w.
NJ, was drowned last Sunday at Rocka-
way Beach, Anne Arundel Co.. Md.
At s o'clock in the morning an ex-
cursion of one hundred and twenty
persons left Baltimore for days
recreation at Rockaway Bench. under
the auspices of tho Darling Little
Angels" a club composed oil members
of Alpha Conclave, ueptasophs. Thoy
went to the Beach In covered barge,
towed by the tug May Russell, Captain
Phillips.
When tho beach was reached the ex-
cursionists we're furnished diversity
OF Bmusements. While the larger
number remained on shore, several
small parties secured boats and an.
chOred near the creeks channel, where
the e2cursloniB,s began fishing and
grabbing. III n yawlbcat were Mr.. and
Mrs. Janes,B Johnson, Miss Maggie
Rebecca Mcdaniel. aged fourteen
years, tho adopted daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. johnson; Mrs. Kate Schu.
mann; her sUn John Sehumann. aged
ton years, and Mr.. and Mrs. John
Nelson, her son-in.iaw and dau ghter.
They fastened their boat to stake
buoy opposite the wharf. The wo-
men made themselves comfortable In
the stern of the Doat, while the men
were forward, fishing and Grabbing.
The accident was caused by thu
s!oop Frolic running down the yawl
boat from which the party were fish
ing. and the story is best told BY John
Nelson, one Of tho survivors:
our boat" said he. was floating
parallel to the emanuel. with the bow
facing the mouth OF the creek. We saw
tho FL ic enter the creek. but as there
was fair wind blowing we did not
anticipate any danger from the sloop.
At intervals between our fishing we
noticed hor course and she seemed to
be steering straight up tho channel.
She was nearly opposite our boat be.
fore We had any fear of danger. Sud-
denly she lulled and came directly
toward us.
"Wo cried out TO the mon on board
to alter the course of the sloop, but
she camO dlagonallY across the creek
and her bow struck the stern OF our
boat, which eareencd, filed with water
and sank. When the sloop struck us
l grabbed her anchor chains and hung
on. AT tho same tlno Mrs. Johnson
md John Schuman caught hold Of
me until Il colored man on board the
sloop assisted them 10 climb over Inc
into the sloop. ] then followed them.
The other members OF our little purity
were either struggling in the water
or wore still i'll the yawlboat. All but
two werO rescued by persons who row.
cd ont from the shore in small boats ]"
The captain OF the sIoop was ar
rested md held to await the action of
the Coroner's jury.
