Very Heavy Losses by Charlton.

Cattle and horses in Richland, Qua
chita and Madison parishes are dying
by scores from a disease known ms
"charbon." The country people sit
mated off the line of railroads are said
to be almost ruined by this terrible
pestilence, which has killed all their
work stock and their mich cows The
death of the animals affected with the
disease is very sudden. In many in
stances COWS have been MIXED in the
morning and seemed in apparent good
health, but by noon the animal would
be dead. 1t is supposed that the dis
ease is caused from the bite of horse
fly or gnat, which poisons the blood of
the animal, causing it to die suddenly.
The loss from this disease will figure
up into thousands of dollars. Plant
ers are becoming alarmed over the
situation. At this season of the year
every mule and horse they possess is
pressed into service. At the rate their
stock is dying it will require but a
short time to clean them ont of all
available work stock. They realize
that something must be done, and that
Immediately, else the disease will COM
Dletelv wreck a large number of far
mers. A remedy which will either
cure or prevent this disease will be
accepted with gratitude by those who
are suffering losses from this pestiIence.
A large number of simple remedies
have been used, but without effect. 1t
is to be hoped that some one will pro-
duce remedy which will prove to be
a cure for this live stock pestilence.
The residents of those parishes are
anxiously awaiting the discovery of q
remedy, and will welcome any infor-
mation on this subject.

ST. LOUIS REvIvIsa.
Work OF Relief Progressing Rapidly--
Death OF Another Storm Victim.

WORK OF neucI EIO8EcoSinH hap10fy-.
Death OF Another Storm Victim.
Affairs in the storm-ridden district
of st. Louis and East st. Louis are
taking on a more cheerful aspect.
The first rush for relief is over and
there is evidence of general improve
ment in the condition of tornado suf-
ferers at the district relief stations.
There is noticeable decrease in thu
number of applicants for aid. What
ever remains from the general fund
will be left in the keeping of the Mer-
chants Exchange committee, who will
continue the work wherever necessary.
The relief fund continues to grow IN
til it has reached S1S3, 531. In all
parts of the tornado district houses
are being made habitable once more
and demolished dwellings, are being
rapidly rebuilt.
In East st. Louis the work of res
toration goes on steadily and there is
no abatement of the relief committees
work. Many people, who were com.
PEELED to live in tents until their de-
molished homes are repaired, are be-
coming accustomed to their environ
ments. In some places they live in
box cars. William Collin, a popular
engineer of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, who was injured in the storm,
has died at the home of a friend as a
result Of his wounds. None of the
patients in the hospital have died in
the past few days, and according to
the statements of the attending ply
sicians no more fatalities will be re-
ported from these institutions.
Mrs. J. H. Ramsey, sister-in-law to
ID. G. Ramsey, ex-chief of the order
of railroad telegraphers, died at her
home in East st. Louis. Mrs. Ram
sey's death was due to the heroic eff
forts she made in rescuing her hus-
band from the ruins of the Vandalia
freight house, on the night of the re-
cent tornado. Mr.. Ramsey still hovers
between life and death. Mrs. Ram
sey's body will be shipped to vinton,
Iowa, for burial.

Ten Acres Of Ducks.

If.nny Of The Times readers have a
desire to enjoy duck aIrl brant shooting
such as was had in the eos, they can
be suited at this time along the ''Easten
Shore anywhere between Hog Island
and Cape Charles.

can see ten acres Of ducks as close rs

Every man along the shore has forty
reasons for this sudden invasion of the
birds. each one more absurd than the
other. and naturalists are just as much
astroy; in fact, no one knows why.

Belcher Of Philadelphia, killed 200
brant of Brigantine in the same year.
On Tuesday last two Philadelplrans

veyor, If one may so express the fact
that some of the streets there are laid
out so as to follow the cow-paths Of the
original hamlet. The inconvenience Of
the streets and their narrowness have
led to a most expensive congestion Of
traffic. The daily amount of freight
carried through the city is estimated at

stances ig one hour out of the ten,

Severe storms prevailed throughout
Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Ne

Sunday, with heavy rains in several
sections, with cyclonic manifestations.
Three heat storms passed over Chicago,
accompanied with heavy rains and hail.
Hailstones fell so thick in some places
that they could be taken up by the

Hyde Park picked up in one
spot nearly peck of shells
and gravel. In other places
small fish and turtles were found in
large numbers OF this remarkable
occurrence Observer Cox states that
that the transplanting of fish shells and
water gravel from their original resting
places to points miles away was due to
the air vacuums, whirlwinds and
straight winds which have prevailed
throughout the west for q week past.

ROBBERY ON a Train.

The st. Louis, Avoyelles 4 South
western railroad, recently built between
Bunkie, Simmsport and Marksville,
has early attained the dignity of full
hedged railroad. It had a wreck about
two weeks ago, and Thursday had a
s'hold-up.' When the train stopped
at Longbridge, on its way to Marks,
vile, two men boarded it. After the
train was in motion these two men
went up to Mr.. Welch, the president
of the road, it is said, with drawn
knives. They demanded money of
Mr.. Welch. He gave them 81, all that
he had. The men then got off the
train Mr.. Welch recognized the two
men as Hatfield aud Graves. When he
reached MaIksville he went to the
clerks Office and swore out an affidavit
against both parties. They were ar
rested and lodged in jail The men in
giving their side of the affair claim that
having been workmen on the road they
had not been paid. They could not
get any money and we're hungry. They
had had no food; that they boarded the
train and asked Mr. Welch to pay
them. Upon being told that he had
money of the Texas & Pacific they re-
piled that they did not want that, but
if he bad any money of his own he
should give it to them. He then gave
them the 81 mentioned, and they then
left him, doing him no violence.
