HOG CHOLERA,

F. T. j.. Of Tayl0rSYille. Utah. had
a lot of fine hogs take sick and die
from the following briefly described
symptoms
The hogs were bumped UP on the
back and would have the diaTrOhea,
their ears would turn dark, and the
pigs would lose the use of their hind
legs. Some only lived one day after
being taken sick, and others would live
a week and two weeks. We fed them
on milk, bran and scraps from the
table. Can you tell us what was the
matter with the pigs? Is the disease
contagious? and how long would You
advise us to wait before getting an
other pig?
To which the following answer is re-
ceived from the faculty of the Utah
Agricultural college. Logan.
1 suspect the pigs died from hog
cholera This is highly infectious and
contagious, and it would not be safe
to bring hogs into the pens where the
dead animals have been, until the
pens are thoroughly disinfeeted, and
even then it would be well to keep hogs
out of them for a time.
In diSinfecting burn all the straw anC
other rubbish in which the hogs have
laid, then use the following solution
for washing all woodwork, VIZ:
Eighteen gallons of WhiteWash anC
add to this two gallons Of crude car
bolic acid. With this solution wash al
woodwork thoroughly. A solution one

THE OLD SPECTACLE swINDLE.
1t Is sdn Going on with Plenty of
Victims.

The attention of a Morning News re-
porter was called yesterday to a swindle
which has been going on in the city for
some time, and which was written up
some time ago by the Morning News.
The number of people who have been
taken in shows how easy it is to de-
ceive by pretending to offer a bargain.
The swindle is known as the spectacle
game. The fakirs have a supply Of brass
trimmed spectacles fitted with cheap glass
es. They are passed off for gold spec
tacles Of course. The usual way OF work
ing the victim is for the fakir TO come
along the street behind him or to catch
nm on his stoop or just entering his place
OF business.
Beg pardon" he says. did YOU drop
these2' holding out what appears to be
pair of gold spectacles.
The victim examines them and says
that he did not.
well, 1 just picked them up here and
they are no use to me-" says the fakir.
II you care to give me a dollar for them
you can have them"
The price asked varies from 81 to So.
according to the apparent gullibillty of
the victim. In nine cases out of ten the
party approached hands over the money
and puts the glasses in his pocket with
a feeling that he has done something
smart. In a day or two he finds that
his eyes and goes to an oculist or opti-
clan to have the glasses changed. He is
painfully surprised when the oculist in
forms him that II is not worth while to
put good glasses in such cheap frames,
and recommends him to buy a steel frame
as more likely to give satisfaction. Usu-
ally thesVictim is so ashamed of having
been caught that he never says anything
to anybody about it and this is one reason
why the swindlers are able to continue
their operations so long in one place.
The manner of playing the game varies.
Frequently the charity dodge is worked
especially if the intended victim is a
woman. The falxir calls at the house for
something to eat. after getting which
he tells his tale of woe. He finishes up by
saying that he is very anxious to see his
mother in Charleston, but he has no
money and is unable to get work He has
a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles, how
ever, which he is willing to put in pawn
for money enough to enable him to buy a
ticket He would not part from the spec
tacles for the world and is only willing to
pawn them until he can get the money to
redeem them. This little tale of woe usu-
ally nets the fakir about 49, The women
are softer marks than the men. The
worst of ii is that many of the victims
can i'll afford to spare the amount.
IF I have had one person come in here
with a pair of those brass spectacles
have had a hundred" said a leading opti-
clan yesterday. The swindlers have
been working here nearly three months
and nobody seems to have made a com
plant to the police about them. l have
been taken in. I advise them against put
ting glasses in the frames, as they will
turn black after two or there weeks
