Fort Worth, Tex, Disqualification
considerab BILE delay the work of con-
structiug the official tests for the pre-
vention of Texas fever in cattle were
inaugurated today and the result is to-
night some sixty head of badly tick
infected Texas cattle have been in
voluntarily subjected to the doctrine
of immersion. 1t was Il a. M. when all
was in readiness to begin and Col. w.
Z. Skinner informed Dr. Norgaard
that he could take charge. The first
batch Of cattle subjected to the treat
mept consis ed of ten head, the per-
sonal property of Col. Skinner. The
tarily soused consisted of , per cent of
chloro-na phi holeum. The dipping was
witnessed by hundreds and cheer
upon cheer mingled with the snOrts
of the bovine as he emerged from the
bath given him. The vat into which
the cattle were plugged was so con-
structed as to forbid the turning of the
animal when once into it and all for
him to do was to swim straight ahead
to the narrow incline leading to dry
ground. This in every instance WAS
done. After these ten head were dip
ped they were placed in specially DIS
infected pens where for two days they
are to be carefully watched and the
results noted.
BY 4o'clock this afternoon the crowd
on hand numbered fully 500. Fifty
additional head were baptized this
time in per cent solution. Opera
tions for the day then were suspended.
DR.. Norgaard expects no results what
ever within twelve to twenty-four
hours. Tomorrow the cattle dipped
today will be examined and the day
following re-eXamined and if necessary
redipped. Experiments will be con-
tinued tomorrow, an additional fifty
head OF badly tick-infected cattle be-
ing used. The Corsicana crude petrO-
leum is here and test of it will be had
DR.. Norgaard intends to continue the
work for ten days or two weeks and so
soon as the cattle are pronounced free
from ticks the national and state in
spectors will give the necessary GER
tificates and the animals go to their
destipatio in Kansas. 1t is expected
that within a few DAYS some decidedly
interesting facts will be available for
publication. The stock yards here
have all the cattle promised necessary
uDOn which to operate.

Incip,ent Georgia Volcano.

A farm in the neighborhood of
Townsville, Ca, is being visited by
hundreds of curious people, viewing
the queer spectacle of what seems to be
an incipient volcano. The crater is
about % feet square and out of small
apertures issues thick smoke. The
ground in the immediate vicinity has
receded two feet below the surface.
Excavations reveal thick bed of live
Goals just under the surface. Repeated
rains have not affected the pheuomen-
on. 1t can only be accounted for on the
hypothesis of the existence of subter-
raneOuS fire.

in the Pittsburg coal district are con-

MEXICO appears to be in very
healthy condition financially, notwith-
standing the slump in silver. Her
revenue now exceeds the current ex-
penses of the government, including
the gold interest on the public debt,
and the only difference the low price
of silver makes is that it takes few
more dollars from the large surplus to
pay the interest on the public debt in
