Notwithstanding his disastrous knock
out in the late election in Maryland, Sen
ator German does not, it is said, consider
his political case q hopeless one. He
still has aspirations, 1t seems, and these
are high order. He even asp,res to be
the Democratic nominee for President in
1900, and this is how he proposes to gain
the coveted distinction. His friends as
sert that when he retires from the Sen
ate he will reorganize his machine and be
nominated for Governor of Maryland.
His election will be secured with n whoop
and hur1ah, ard two years hence, with
the prestige of this victory he will enter
upon the fight for the Presidential nomi-
nation. His sturdy and determined
fight against the force bill, which was
mainly defeated through his efforts, has
made him many friends in the South,
where, in spite of all of his mistakes, he
is still regarded with affection, but it
will be utterly impossible for him o, any
other man to supplant w. j. Bryan in
the esteem and confidence of the people:
hence as long as the latter remains the
living force in American politics that he
now is, it will be useless for Mr.. German
or any one else tn indulge in such a wild
and hopeless scheme as the one outlined
PbOve.

General Blanco, commander of the
Spanish forces in Cuba, says the policy
of his government will be one thing in
the palace at Havana and another in the
field. The autonomy which he will offer
to the insurgents will, he says, be at the
point of the bayonet, which seems to
indicate "A vigorous military policy on
the part OF the liberals, however sweet

will not do, however, to be misled by the

good reasons to be proud of what Democ-

must not be forgotten that his figures
before the election in 1896 were, some of
them, wide of the mark, and though

affirmed the decision of the SUI

rant must hang. This is one of the
strangest and most revolving stories of
murder ever recorded, and even now there
are many people who believe Durrant did
not commit the crimes of which he is ac-
cused. He has, however, had the Lenefit
of the best legal talent in the State to Sc
cure his acquittal, and all that money or

him from the gallows has been done.

It has been known for years that
tapew0rms infest domesticated poultry,
and that In some cases they cause seri-
Gus epizootics among fowls. The out
breaks thus far recorded have occurred
chiefly in Europe, and as q natural out
come almost the entire work which has
been published on these parasites II the
result Of European investigations. The
literature upon the subject Is accord
ingly In Latin, German, French, Danish.
Italian. ETC., while in the English Ian
tices concerning these worms. Generic
and specific diagnoses Of the parasites
of this group are almost unknown ar
ticles in the English language, while
as yet We have absolutely no reliable
data as to how many species of tape
worms are found in American poultry.
Several outbreaks Of tapeworm dis
ease have been noticed in fowls in diff
ferent parts of the country, and upon
various occasions specimens have been
sent to the bureau for Identification.
From a table showing 80 recorded
species it was noted that different
tapeworms have been recorded from
pigeons, from turkeys, II from chick
ems, 2 from swans, from geese, 16
from ducks and from an ostrich. One
form has been recorded as common to
pigeons, chickens and ducks. s forms

The treatment of tapeworm disease
in the domesticated fowls must for the
present be more or less experimental,
as the records in this line are extreme
ly limited. The first rule to be carried
out in all cases of diseased animals,
whether chickens, turkeys, geese, ducks
or others, is to isolate them from the
rest of the flock and keep them con-
fined until they have recovered. The
second rule is to destroy the droppings

ed in such a manner as to kill the ova.
These two rules can be easily carried
out, and If poultry raiser or a stock
:aiser Is not willing to set aside a
small yard for the isolation of the sick
animals. where their droppings can be
easily collected and taken care of ev-
cry day, 1t is almost useless for him to
administer anthelmintics to his fowls
or other animals. The chief drugs
used against tapeworms are: Extract
Of male fern. turpentine, powdered
kamala, areca nut, pomegranate root
bark, pumpkin seeds and sulphate of
copper (bluestone).
