ANTI-OHRIsTIAN 0UTRAGBS.
Chinese MIsereants Aroused by the
Loss nf a Boat Race.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. l, 1S9o.-Mall
advices from Toxic say:-Another anti
Christian riot has occurred at Ping Yang,
a China inland mission station thirty
three miles south of Wen Chow. The
affair had a strange origin. During the
dragon festival two bats ran a race.
The defeated crew invited the Taoist
priest to explain the cause of their dis
comfiture and he discovered an eyeless
idol on board the boat. He said plainly
that the effigy's eyes u ave been
gouged out by the Christians.
A band of roughs proceeded to the
residence of a prominent native CHS
tan n warned him that if the boat
was again defeated, his house would be
destroyed. These things happened on
June q. The boat again failed to secure
first place, and on the Doth the razing
of Christian houses and chapels COM
menced.
Throughout the week the work went
on in a leisurely kind Of fashion until
twenty buildings were in ruins and
ashes. Whenever a house stood alone,
it was burned; when it adjoined others,
it was pulled down. News of these do
ings has caused some excitement in
Wen Chow and there are fears that
that city also may become the scene Of
further OutrageS.

THE sOOURGE OF ANTHRAX.
The Disease Now Prevalent Amongst
New Jersey Cattle.

If'tttt ~ hA'1 SS'fNS SNI
TRENTON. Aug. 1. 1895.-Anthrax, the
fatal horse and cattle disease, is still
spreading. 1t has appeared in Dutch Neck
and two farmers a lost all their stock.
There is talk of a general quarantine
against milk until the disease has been
stamped out of that section. The dairy
men and farmers who sell milk advocate
his measure to a considerable degree.
The argue thai while cows are under
going incubation by anthrax serum the
milk is unfit for consumption, though the
veterinary surgeons say the milk is not
affected by the treatment.
The cost of incubation is considerable.
the operation once accomplished there
will be future immunity from the dis
ease by the herd. Anthrax thrives best
during wet weather and on wet land.
The State Board of Health and Dairy
Commissioner George Mcclure are con-
ports received from the Inspectors
throughout the State giving the details
of the rapid spread among the CATTLE,
horses and mules of the deadly disease
known as anthrax.
rapidly Spreading TO all sections of the
State, and over 100 head of cattle, horses
and mules nave succumbed to it within
the past ten days. Just how many cases
there are in the State at present the
State authorities are unable to say, .Dut
the belief is that they will run up into
the hundreds.
So alarming has the disease become in
Salem and Cumberland counties that the
State Board, after a brief consultation
employed DIR. H. G. Powell, President of
the Bridgeton local Board OF Health, who
is a specialist on anthrax, who, with a
corps of assistants, is directed to make a
counties and stamp out the disease if
possible. The doctor is empowered to
draw on the State for any amount re-
quired to accomplish this.
Each of DR.. Powen's assistants IS
equipped with hypodermic syringes and
quantities of anthrax preventative. They
are directed TO ~inoculate all healthy
cows, horses, mules, sheep, goats and
swine in their district. Other physicians
with the same instructions may be sent
here in Mercer, where the disease is
reported to have broken out;
The State Board of Health has no
hope of saving any animals that have
already taken the disease, it being so
deadly that by the time it develops suffi-
aminer, the animal dies.
The deadly Scourge is communicable to
man, and. Dairy Commissioner MCGUIRE
is greatly exercised for fear that the
large quantities of milk daily, shipped
to New York City and Philadelphia
from the affected districts will cause an
outbreak.
Little is known of anthrax by the
medical authorities. When an animal is
affected there suddenly appears a swell
diphtheria in the human being and be-
fore any assistance can be rendered the
animal drops dead. The discharge is al
ways fatal to man..
