A Will of Prize Packages.

CLEVELAND, o., Jan. 31.-Luther
Moses will, which has just been
probated, is peculiar in that seven
teen requests TO relatives are re-
presented in as many prize pack
ages contained in the safe OF the
Savings and Trust company. AS
soon as the executors furnish
bonds the heirs will repair to the
bank and receive the packages
which are numbered and assigned.
1t is supposed that they contain
deeds to real estate and perhaps
checks for sums Of money. The
testator died about three weeks
ago. He was possessed Of very
large fortune, the exact value OF

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 31.-Dr. Nat Car

mary surgeon, has been connected
with the East st. Louis Jockey

latter part of Gen. Grants lifetime,
DIR. Carlin had charge OF his stock

R. F. BLAIR.
Replies to an Old Time Democrat.

To the DAILY LIGHT:
There appeard in the Daily
LIGHT of the 2Sth inst. a commu-
nication under the head line OF
ga Daniel Come to Judgment"
and signed "Old Line Democrat"
in which the writer imagipes he is
attacking me for the OPT Mons ex.
pressed in an interview published
in the Galveston News and re-
published in the Daily Express
few days ago.
The point made by the anoy-
nous writer is not apparent from
the context thereof; but he seems
to have made a labored effort to
constitute himself to be the spe-
cial guardian and defender of the
political record and fortunes OF my
friend, Hon. j. l.. Slayden. l as
sumo however, that the little
piece was not written with the
consent of Mr.. Slayden, for il he
needs defense, both aud l are will
ling to admit that he can take
care OF himself much better than
the jack asswho covers behind a
nom de plume.
The manner in which he hides
behind an anonymous name to at
tack me is conclusive evidence to
a reasonable mind that instead Of
being an "Old Line Democrat" the
author belongs to that class Of
political buccaneers, we'll known
to all men who have ever made a
canvass of Bexar county, who Is
devoid Of political principles and
whose vote is determined by the
amount of cash received by him
on election day. 1t brands him as
a moral coward, who desires to
avoid the discovery of his place Of
emigration and what his name
was there, whose virtues are few
and whose record is shady.
While / have not asked, l do not
fear the result of contrast" OF
my record in the legislature, or
elsewhere, with that of Mr.. Stay
den, il made by one who has half
as much brains as a half-grown
oyster, but "Old Line Democrat"
must excuse me; his little piece
would indicate that he is not quail
flied according to this standard.
His trouble seems to be that his
ears have overshadowed his brains
so much and so long that they (his
brains), are dreadfully dwarfed,
and poor fellow, he cannot help it.
But two things, however, he ought,
with a reasonable effort, learn to
do, and they are: Q) To spell
"iridescent," and (2), to sign his
name, even IL he has to borrow a
typewriter.
Moreover, 1 desire to say it may
be true that sit is not probable
that Mr.. Slsyden will be a candi-
date at the coming election for
legislative, or other political hon.
ors," and that "it is morally GER
toin that Mr.. Blair WILL" l want
it distinctly understood now, that
IL 1 do become a candidate, / court
and expect to win the opposition
of every dirty, political bush
whacker like the author OF the
article referred to above.

This dread disease among swine Inns
done much damage IN Texas during the
past six months out west of Plano
In Collin county II has been very de-
structlve. Talking with Or. William
Falsetter the other day on this subject
ne stated that he considered prevention
about the best cure. That often hogs
would get well and the disease disap-
pear from causes that could not be
explained.
This often gives rise to supposed
remedy or treatment for the disease
The safe way is to keep the pig pen
In sanitary condition, feed sound
wholesome food, give clean water to
drink and keep Isolated from strange
hogs.
This subject is discussed by Or. Galen
Wilson In the Country Gentleman"
In which he maintains the affirmative
side as follows:
THAT Nth Will cause hog cholera or
swine fever or plague l have the
evidence of my own eye. At a summer
resort In the mountains a large number
OF swine were gathered from farmers
about, to consume the refuse OF the
hotel. Much OF this became stale and
rotten before the hogs ate 1t. All were
attacked with swine plague and died,
while the disease did not affect farmers
hogs In the vicinity. IL this evidence
good for nothing?
II will now bring evidence that no
person can question. The United Vet
Urinary Medical association met recent
ly at Boston. A report OF their pro-
ceedings was printed in the New En-
gland Farmer. a paper of trustworthy
character and published on the spot
under date OF October "a. 1891. quote
from that report DIR. Austin Peters,
as chairman of the committee on In
tciliRence and education, criticised Sc
verely the bureau OF animal industry
OF the United States department OF ag-
rlculture.' He praised the executive
work for eradicating pleuTo-pneumonia
but he says. when we come to a con-
sideration OF Its scientific work, much
cannot be said for Its efficiency Dr.
Peters asserts that the bureaus investi-
cation OF swine diseases has been UNI
scientific and erroneous. He says that
the departments swine plague Is only
a septic disease due to filth.' As no
dissenting voices were reported II must
be understood that these sentiments
expressed the unanimous feelings of
this honorable scientific body.
Just how the germs of this disease
are transmitted from one locality to
another passes the knowledge OF man.
as does the transmission of the germs
Of typhoid fever and diptherla in human
beings. In either case we know they
propa gate readily In filth. and that the
latter should be avoided. Doubtless the
germs pass :. ON point to point In more
ways than one can imagine. II Mr..
Spencer Will rid his mind OF the belief
that said filth would cause hog chol-
era anew there Will remain no object OF
contention
