tuberculosis at the Expert
ment Station Farm,

The recent discovery of tuberculosis in
the dairy herd of the Experiment Station
farm and the public announcement of the
same have called for a careful investigation
by the Board OF Cattle Commissioners, as
sisted by the State Board of Health. the
Board of Control and officers of the Station.
1t is, as yet, impossible to determine the
source OF the disease, and it is believed that
1t has existed in the herd III an unsuspect-
ed form for some time There appears to
pc no reason to crlticiSe the management in
any way for its presence there. and the an
imals found diseased gave no outward phys
lcal symptoms of their condition and were
apparently in perfect health, and the dis
ease could only be discovered by the use of
the tubercuIin test. All of the animals
slaughtered have verified this test, and it is
believed that the dairymen of the State
nave at their command the means of de-
tectlng this lnsidious and fatal disease in
their herds.
Strong measures have been taken to free
the Station from the disease, and the action
OF the managers in making an immediate
announcement of its presence as soon as
discovered, and the means adopted TO puri-
ty the herd, should meet with commenda-
ton from the people of the State and give
renewed confidence in their purpose to dis
charge their duty faithfully and fearlessly.
1t is believed that there is no reason, as vet,
to suppose that this disease is widespread
IN our State, and dairymen should not have
any unreasonable fears in regard to it.
Careful and thorough investigation of the
disease with the best authorities in this and
other States leads to the conclusion that it
mas existed for long time among the cat
tie in all portions of the country, and other
States have had to meet and deal with it in
the past. There is no reason to suppose
that tuberculosis is more prevalent to-day
than for years past, only we have at this
time, through the discovery of the action of
tuberculin on infected animals, a means of
detecting this disease, and consequently,
means of purifying out herds, which is a
step forward rather than an occasion forre-
greet or fear. 1t is to be hoped that the dali
rymen of the State will take no hasty or
unwlse action in consequence of the diScoV-
cry of this disease in our State, but that
ney will surround their animals with the
pest conditions of health possible. salcfs
watch carefully any indication of the dis
ease in their herd, and take means to free
themselves from it when once discovered.

stations on the Madeira a few years ago.
The younger son of an English baronet,
abroad seeking his fortune, had connect
ed himself with aleading rubber firm in
Para, and had occasion to visit the
caoutchouc districts. He became infat-
uated with the daughter of mojo la
borer, who had superb face and figure,
as beautiful and soulless as a jaguar. He
took her with him down to Para, and
thence to England. and it was afterward
asserted that one of the divine padres
hao actually pronounced the blessing of
holy church over them. Be that as it
may, the death of the elder brother in
the hunting field left the cadet the heir,
and he, too, soon paid the debt to nature.
So the brown skinned baby of a savage
mother became possible successor to one
of the best estates and lineages in Devon
shire, could the fact of the marriage be
established.
The woman fell in with Portuguese
adventurer in London. He pushed the
claims of the child to the baronetcy when
the old man died, and there was bitter
fight in the English law courts, based on
q certificate of marriage which purport-
ed to have been signed by the Brazilian
padre of the little settlement 800 miles
away from the coast in the Amszonian
forests. The suit ended in a defeat of
the probable imposture, but it was a
very narrow shave. Here was a story
such as Miss Braddon might have wished
for one of her novels. and a good many
such queer social entanglements are
talked about in the gossip of the Para
rubber market. S. Z. f. CUTLER

PITTSBURGH. Jan. 12.-Joseph G. Hill
ton, the colored i%anitor employed at the
United States court rooms in this city,,
has been i'll with laEgrippe for several
weeks. During the temporary absence
OF his wife at the grocery store about
10 o'clock this morning, he became sud-
denly insane, and selling two revolrers
leaped from the second story window to
the street. He was not seriously in
jured in the fall, and then ran amuck
for reveralE blocks along Locust and
Forbes streets, firing right and left and
uttering the most unearthy yells.
AS he ran down Locust street. he en-
countered his wife, coming from the
store, and fired at her, but the bullet
went wide of its mark. Without stop
ping to ascertain the result of the shot,
he continued on his way, next meeting
Isaac Clatty, the grocer. Hilton imme-
diately opened fire, and Clatty> ran for
cover, but the aim was better this
time, and the bullet took effect in his
back, inflicting a dangerous wound. An.
unknown lady vas the next target, but
she got away u%ninjured.
When tho corner OF Miltenberger and
Forbes streets was reached, Hilton
stopped. and, placing one of the re-
volvers in his mouth, blew the top OF
his head off. He fell to the pavement
unconscious, and was carried to his
home. where he quickly expired.

that fifteen men were killed by

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 1.-THE op-

banks scored a victory in the committee
on banking and currency to-day. The
friends of the bill had been confident
that the protracted committee struggle
would end to-day by a favorable report;
but Representative Johnson, (Rep) of
Indiana, executed a flank movement by
moving to consider the resolution for
the previous question. Mr.. Johnson's

He at once followed this up by moving
that the entire question be put aside
until after the tariff debate closed. This
also carried and the meeting summarily

C1NcIEHArI, O., Jan. 13.-Rosieo Par
ker, the colored boy who four weeks
ago last Sunday night brutally muir
was hanged by a mob of the best citi-
zens of Winchester and adjacent points
in Adams county, Ohio, at / o'clock this
morning about four miles from VIM
chester. The murder was for money and
only ten dollars was obtained. Parker,
the murderer, was only sixteen years
old, and had worked for the old couple
and had known of Mr.. Rhine receiving
money for the sale of some stock. The
boy confessed his crime but implicated
Sam Johnson, who easily proved his in
nocence. Lynching was threatened and
Parker was taken to Portsmouth for
safe keeping. Meantime the spirit of
vengeance did not sleep.
Secret organization was had, and
when it was learned yesterday that
Sheriff Dunlap, }on his way from
Athens. would bring Parker to Adams
county for a preliminary hearing and
would keep MIN over night in the West
Union jail, messengers were sent out
and a band OF 400 men met at the Fan
Handle crossing and rode to West
Union. At the Jail they tried the use
of pretending they had a prisoner, but
Sheriff Dunlap seeing q mask shut the
door and fastened it securely. The
mob used force, and despite the sher-
ifs manly. defense soon had Parker
and were on their way toward Win
chester. The colored boy still main
tanned that Johnson did the murder
and finally when the place OF execution
was reached and the rope was around
his neck he said he was not at the place
of murder that night and could tell
nothing whatever about it. He refused
to pray and was hanged after n or
two efforts by the somewhat unskilful
executioners who left him after firing
bullets into his body.
