Corporal Solomon Bittner quietly cele-
brated his sixty-seventh birthday at his
home in Jeddo on Monday. At the
breaking out of the rebellion he was
living in Franklin county, this state. In
October, 1862, he responded to the presi-
dents call for more troops, enlisting in
Company E, 15Sth Infantry. During
his absence in North Carolina scarlet
fever swept over his home, taking with
it his wife and three children within
two weeks. At the end of one year he
was honorably discharged, his term hav-
ing experied. Later he returned to
the ranks, joining the 21st Pennsylvania
Cavalry, with which he served until the
close of the war as corporal in Company
d.
to his credit, and on the last day of the
rebellion he achieved d distinction of
which he feels proud On the day OF
Lees surrender he was chosen color
bearer of General Sheridan's escort, a
position which was given him in recog
milton of his valiant service. He won
his title in the cavalry.
The old soldier is a staunch friend of
the late General Sheridan. He con-
siders Little Phil" one of the greatest
of modern commanders.
Shortly after the war Mr. Bittner re-
moved to Jeddo, where he has since
resided

10 Dc Ahicted win tuberculosis Was
Destroyed Near wiisesbarre by Orders
of the State board of Health.
city Tuesday from Wysox, Bradford
county, Pa, by way of the Lehigh Val
ley Railroad, says the Wilkesbarre
Neaosdedter. There are 1856 cows in all
fine, sleek, healthy-looking cattle.
Yes, healthy Cooking" but alas how
their looks belle their real condition.
They are ''like unto those whitened
sepulchres-far without and foul with
in." For those are the same 1856 cattle
that were examined at Wysox last Fri
day and Saturday by State Veterinarian
Leonard Pearson, DR.. Harry Walters, of
this city, and DR.. Swank, of Mauch
Chunk. There were two herds examin-
ed, owned by Louis and j. C. Piollett. of
Wysox, the former being the member of
the state Legislature from Bradford
county.
In the two herds we're les cows and
when the examination had been con-
cluded only twelve were found to be un-
affected by the deadly tuberculosis.
All the rest-l56-proved to be in vari-
GUS stages of the tubercular malady. In
conversation with DR.. Walter the doctor
Informed reporter that the herd con-
tained about as splendid a lot of animals,
so far as looks go, as could be seen any
where.
Nobody would imagine, not even
veterinarian, says the doctor, that they
were victims of tuberculosis. Doctor
Walter says he never was more surpris-
ed at the result of any examination of
cattle than he was at this. All the cat
tie were of the class known as Great
Short Horns, sometimes spoken of as
Durhams.
Some time ago the Messrs. Piollet ap-
piled to the Hygiene Milk Company, of
this city, and offered to sell all their
milk to that company. DR.. Walter told
the Messrs. Piollet that before making
any arrangements the cattle would have
to be inspected. Hence the examination
and the surprising result. The spread
of the disease among the herd was most
alarming and it wouldn't have been long
before every cow of the 16S would have
been victim of the dreadful malady.
The diseased animals were taken to
Sickler's Fertlizing Works, at Butz-
bach's Landing, where their slaughter
was begun in the afternoon, they having
first been identified by the Messrs. Piol-
let. This is the largest herd in the
world which the law has ever ordered to
be slaughtered. 1t seems pity to sub
ject such a lot of fine looking cattle to
the slaughterer's bullet. But it is, of
couse, necessary, being the only means
to prevent the spread of the dire tuber-
cular contagion, not only among cattle,
but among human beings as well, who
are in daily peril or contracting con
sumption and other lung diseases from
the microbetainted milk
BY many the question is asked: 'Do
the owners of the affected cattle have to
suffer their loss without receiving any
compensation for such loss?" The state
appraises the value of the cattle and
makes good their loss to the owners.
DIR. Walter will direct the post-mortem
examination of the cattle. The doctor
Informed the reporter that an accurate
report of every organ in each and every
COW must be made.

bond in the sum of Sc, 900, but that he
had failed to find pondsmen up to the
above date. The letter further stated
that while the sheriff of Eastland coun-
ty had Miller in charge, he gave him
the liberty of the town and that Miller
attended camp meeting, got religion
and shouted right out in open meeting.
The judge who was hearing the habeas
corpus case to see whether Miller
should be allowed bond, excused tho
sheriff by saying he was new man in
office and did not know that it was not
right to allow murderers to attend
camp meetings and get religion. The
latter also says that it is rumored that
when Miller makes his bond, he will
move to Eastland to reside, and that
when be leaves Pecos there will be
a grand jubilee and that the people
