DUBUQUE, Ia, Nov. 2S.-A leading

that the disease so commonly called
hog cholera is nothing but typhoid
pneumonia and much of the sickness
is caused by improper feeding.

Recollections of Bismarck's Wartime.

In the columns of The Kreuzzeitung
Herr Andrae, a we'll known Conservative
politician and friend of Prince Bis
marck, gives some interesting recollec-
tions of the period Of the wal Of 1870.
He saws: Bismarck read on the 9th Of
July the speech delivered by the Duke
of Grammont ON the 9th. He was ut
dinner and handed the newspaper to his
wife, with the words: The Duke OF
Grammont must have soon got tired Of
his Office. Ishall, of course, have to ask
for his resignation Later in the even
ing, while walking in the park at
Varzin and thinking of the matter, the
idea suddenly came to him, Napoleon
wants war, and Grammont's speech was
dictated by him.
HE went to his room, his first thought
being to telegraph to the king. at Ems,
as follows, 1t would be best to mobilize
at once, declare wal and attack before
France is prepared. His nerves were
strung to the highest tension, and he
passed a sleepless night. Lying awake,
thinking, there crossed his mind the
text, Blessed are the peacemakers, for
they shall be called the children of God.
so that won't do he said to himself.
Then all the political consequences of
his contemplated action became clear to
him, and he ended by casting the first
message aside and t~elegraphing to King
William simply not to pledge himself to
anything with Benedict, who, if he be-
came pressing, was to be told, MY min
lister of foreign affairs is at Varzin.'

making quick trips across the country
with express matter and other light
loads, and it is said that four Of them
can pull a driver of a two wheeled cart
and a 900 pound load of miscellaneous
matter 60 to 20 miles a day. They keep
up a constant swinging trot or run and
have been known to travel 100 miles in
a day and. night without either feed or
water. No n knows anything concern
ing the origin of this peculiar breed OF
miniature cattle. They have been known
on the island Of Ceylon and in other
Buddhistic countries for more than a
thousand years. One story told to ac-
count for their origin is to the effect
that they were originally cattle of the
ordinary height and bulk; that a Bud
dhistic priest was once imprisoned in a
stone building, one-half of which was
used for a cattle stable. During the
night he managed to dislodge one of the
stones in his prison wall. The stone in
question was exactly 21a feet square.
