cattle in that country are afflicted
with some disease resembling hydro
phobia. They are suddenly attacked
with spasms and become very vicious
After running over the fields until ex.

great agony. Several farmers have
lost from one to three head in this
manner, and new cases are developing
daily. Some weeks ago several mad
dogs were killed in the neighborhood

Waiting For Gen. Prosperity.

Only six of the 10 life insurance
companies doing business in Hopkins
vile had paid the license of $50 re-
quired for 1897 last week and some O.
the agents who have paid were pro
testing very vigoro usly against The
city officials to apply the penalty pre-
scribed to the delinquents. So fal
as we have learned nothing has yet
been done in the matter. Perhaps
the insurance companies are hard up
and are waiting for prosperity.

Near at Hand.

Gave Warning That judgement Was
Near at Hand,
Clorie Moseley, a well known col
ored woman, died very suddenly at
Blooming Grove colored Baptist
church, two miles north of the city
Sunday afternoon about o'clock.
She was known as "Clorie, the Pro-
phet" and had just warned the con-
gregation at the church that Judge
ment was near at hand, and became
greatly excited during her discourse
She complained that her head hurt
her and walked into the house of Kate
Moody, near by and asked permission
to lay down. Almost instantly she
fell and died without a struggle.
Coroner Allensworth was summoned
at once and an inquest was held over
the body. The jury returned a YER
dict that the woman had died of heart
disease. The remains were brought
to the home of r chard Harris col. her
son-in- law, in this city and prepared
for burial. The interment took place
at the colored cemetery yesterday af-
ternoon.
Many of her prophecies are said to
have come true. About year ago
she predicted that a cyclone would
destroy the city of Hopkinsvile, at a
certain time. Two days after the
date mentioned violent storm visited
this section and the southern portion
of the city suffered greatly.
She was 81 years old and had lived
near the city all her life,

One night the boys i'm The Tribune COM

eAeooN SOLDIERS.
They Carvy on Warfare by Means OF Or
gnnized Bands.

Man Is not the only animal who carries
on his warfare by means of organized
bands and calls i'm the forces of nature q
assist him. The German naturalist and
traveller Brehm witnessed in Central Africa
| fights that were conducted in as orderly 4
manner as If the warriors had been really
men instead of only somewhat like them
| in form.
The actors i'm the play were balloons,
and their enemies were i'm one case the
travellers dogs though the balloons Were
ready to fight with any creature that at
tackled them, man only excepted and he
owed his exemption solely to the fact that
the baboons could not often gain point
of vantage.
The naturalist himself was once stoned
out of pass i'm very few minutes by
these creatures who sprang upon hedges
and stones, looked down for few mo.
ments on the valley, growing, snarling
and screaming, and then began to roll
down stones with So much vigor and
adroitness that the intrrders took Co flight,
The balloons evidently knew the value of
co cooperation, for the naturalist saw two of
them combine their efforts in order TO set
a particularly heavy stone rolling. One

that he might hurl it with greater effect

them only the females took To flight.
The males turned and faced the enemy

hands and opening their mouths wide so
as to show their glittering teeth. They |
looked SO fierce and malicious that the
dogs-Arab greyhounds, accustomed TO |

they were encouraged to renew the attack
