Says il Is Texas Fever.

Tyrone, Aug. 9.-Dr. F. Bridges, the
state veterinarian, came here to, day to
investigate the reported epidemic among
the cattle at Birmingham. DIR. H. &.
Patterson, veterinarian of Altoona
made an examination of the dead COWS
and pronounced the disease Texas fever
in which he was substantiated by Dr.
Bridges.
DIR. Bridges says the disease was con
tracted by the animals pasturing on the
railroad track over which Texas cattle
had been hauled. The disease was
transmitted by ticks which fell from the
passing cattle. These ticks, which are
similar to a wood louise, become impreg-
mated in the skin and cause sickness and
death in a few days. The disease is not
contagious and there is no danger of It's
spreading.

Shot His father-in-Iaw.

Detroit, Mich, Aug. 12.-Mrs. Wiz
liam Haas left her husband a week ago
because of his abuse of her and went
back to her parents home to live. This
morning Haas walked into the kitchen,
where his wife and children and her
father, Michael Kreg, were sitting.
"Are you going to live with me?" he
asked his wife. She replied, "No, and
Haas drew a revolver. Mrs Haas pick
ed up her little baby and ran into an
other room, shutting the door behind
her. Haas attempted to follow her,
when kreig interferred and Haas fired
two shots at him, one taking effect in
the left breast, just above the heart, and
the other passing clear through the left
shoulder. kreig will probably die.
Haas was arrested

A Burglar Killed.

Pittsburg, Aug. 12.-George Glass
shot and killed an unknown colored
burglar at his home, III Grafton, near
here, last night. The burglar was dis
covered in Mr.. Glass bedroom and a
chase followed. Mr.. Glass was shot
through the left hand, but he struggled
with the intruder, who finally jumped
through a window.
AS the burglar jumped Glass fired two
shots at him and one of them inflicted
a wound which caused the burglars
death in few minutes. There was
nothing on the dead mans person by
which he could be identified.

AHoLLY SPRAY.

Written for the Daily Press.
On Cardinals mountain hs1ght,
Whose Blue Ridge overlooks the seas,
There ripened late. from blossoms white
A Thousand scarlet mysteries.
AS this bright holly spray we hold.
Laden with berries, blushing red,
We read how Love, in ways untold,
forecasts each lot by wisdom led.
For leaves, with sharp, protecting spines,
Raise near to earth their barricade,
While, at the top. as in our pines,
The young birds linger unafraid
For food. they have the ripened fruit,
For warmth, the smooth, bright ever
green.
And in this shelter, nestled mute,
No hostile forces contravene.
AS year by year, the holly grows,
Uplifting high it's thornles spray,
Thus every soul to win repose
Must nearer climb to Heaven each day
For growth means wise intelligence,
Through mastery of pain and strife.
With dawnings of nobler sense
That upward leads to Light and Life.
And on this altitude SO blest,
Unmoved by storm. untouched by fear,
May weaker souls, like birds, find rest,
In Loves encilcling atmosphere.

The strike on the Philadelphia trolley
lines has ended, and SO far as we can see
the men have made nothing out of it
whatever. They are to be taken back, or
so many of them as places can be found
for, but their pay is not to be increased
and the privileges asked are not acceded
to. Probably they would have not
won in any event, though some of their
demands seemed reasonable, because
unemployed men were plenty, but
they would have stood better chance if
they had remained peaceable and not re-
sorted to violence. When they held up
the cars, and attracked the men who
were running them with sticks and
stones, they made themselves public
enemies and arrayed against them the
power of the State Of course this has
tened the collapse.

Meetings in this country now to de-
nounce the Presidents attitude on the
Venezuela question are about as impolitio
as meetings in support of it. The war
feeling has not entirely died out, and
violent denunciation of Cleveland only
serves to revive it. This was shown
pretty conelusively by the meeting
held up in New York on Nor day
night. 1t seems to have been demonstrate
ed there that was plenty of war spirit yet
abroad to make trouble. The best policy
now for people is to go quietly about their
business. Above all things people had
better refrain from glorifng Eng
land. That has upon large part of the
people about the same effect as shaking

While good many expressions in favor
of peace come from prominent English
men, we fail to find one in which is
contained any suggestion of the modi-
fication of the English position in the
slightest degree. They don't want wal
they say, but apparently they want the
Americans to make all the concessions
that may be necessary to avoid it. None
of them suggests the possibility Of Eng
lands submitting the dispute to arbitra-
ton, the most honorable way in the world
to settle it and the way that gives abso-
Lutte assurance of peace. Claiming all the
while that their title to the land in dis
pute is perfect, they nevertheless draw
back when the submission of their claim
to impartial men is suggested. Further
more it is alleged that while these ex-
pressions in favor of peace are being tele-
graphed across the water, Lord Sails
bury's government is hurrying on war
both at home and in Canada.
The cry for war has subsidized to very
great degree in this country, but it may
be revived again by British insistance

One of the humorous things of the con-
sroversy between England and the United
States is the allegation by some of the
English rapers that it will tend to check
English efforts for the relief of the Arme.
mans. This controversy has been goin 6
on about one week. while the Armenian
snassaeres have been going ON some
months, and up to the day that President
Cleveland sent in his message the Eng
fish had not done solitary thing which
had had the effect to check in the slight
est degree the murder of the Christians
in Armenia. English ships have been in
the neighborhood of Constantinople all
this time, and the English ambassador
has been in daily communication with
the Sultan, but the massacres have gone
on just as regularly as if there had been
no fleet and no am bassador.

WEDNESDAY, d ECEMBER 25.

There is an intimation that the Presi-
dent is not finding it easy to get the right
kind of men for al biters in the Venezue-
Ian case This is not surprising AS the
PRESS pointed out some days ago, the
responsibilities connected with the posi-
ton may be tremendous, while the facili.
ties for the arbiters to arrive at correct
conclusion are not of the best, inasmuch
as the investigation must necessarily be to
q large degree ex parte.

Mr.. Cleveland gets the severest con-
demnation where he has been accustomed
to receive the highest praise. The New
York Evening Post which up to a week
ago was accustomed to hold him up az
tho only public man in the country, who
was not scape grace, now abuses him
like pickpooket. Its present attitude
toward him, we are bound TO say, is just
as indefensible as was it's former position.
Mr. Cleveland was not an angel before,
and be is not devil now. Unquestion-
ably he made bad mistake in appending
to his message words that might fairly
be construed as threat of war, tut the
good things he has done ought to count
for something, and they would in the
eyes of man or a newspaper which had
really loved and respected him as much
as the New York Post has pro-
fessed to do. Mr.. Cleveland will now GER
tainly get clear idea of what Mugwump
friendship amounts to, and SO will every

With the tariff measure and the bond
bill separated there is undoubtedly bet
ter chance Of getting both through than
If they were joined together. A tariff
bill with bond attachment would ex-
cite tie hostility of the silver Republicans
IN the Senate who, with the Democrats
who would oppose the tariff part of the
measure are powerful enough TO hold it
up. Without the bond attachment the
tariff bill will be likely to receive the
unanimous support of the Republicans in
both branches and pass, and the bond bill,
not encountered by the tariff, will be
likely to get Democratic support enough
in the Senate to offset the votes of the
silver men against it. Mr.. Cleveland
may veto the tariff bill, but he will sign
the bond bill SO that some relief legisla-
ton is pretty certain to be effected.
