Mosquitoes Drive Cattle to Suicide.
1T is said that man is the only ami
NAL who perspires all over, laughs and
commits suicide" remarked a resident
Of the lower coast to the New Orleans
Times-Democrat. 1.-THE suicide claim
has been disputed, however. and I can
furnish a little evidence on the subject
myself. Down near the mouth Of the
river the mosquitoes are at times a
pest of a very formidable character,
and If they are any worse in the Klon-
dixie l wouldn't 60 there for enough
gold to start a brickyard. They come
in swarms SO dense that they look like
clouds Of black smoke, and when they
make a decent there is nothing to do
but beat a retreat. OF course cattle
suffer intensely, and the poor beasts
will become absolutely maddened by
the pain. The mosquitoes penetrate
their ears and nostrils, and on several
occasions I have seen cows and steers
rush into the river and to all appear
ances commit suicide by drowning. I
mean that they wade into comparative
ly' shallow water and deliberately hold
themselves under water until life is
extinct. Anybody who lives in the
neighborhood will bear out the asser-
ton, and If the act is not intentional
suicide it certainly has all its aspects.
It is a common thing to see cattle run
into the river and submerge them
selves until only their noses protrude.
Old settlers say they will stand that
way all night, and I know from person
al observation that they will hold their
position for hours at a timE.""

WHAT STATIONS NEED.

Feed and Care which Secure the
Best Results.
Plenty Of feed, and that Of the right
taken into consideration in keeping a.
stallion fit for service, says The West
,ern Horseman. Exercise naturally sug-
gests itself to. every mind, though
many owners don't attend to this mat
ter as they should. The writer believes
In feeding a stallion four times a day
during the breeding season and as
great a change of feed as can well be.
given him. No stallion should perform
service Immediately after eating a
hearty ration Of grain and hay. Many
a good horse has been killed by not
paying proper attention to this one im-
portant fact, while others have been
made dangerously i'll. Give the first
feed att o'clock in the morning, If pos
sibie, and then the horse will be ready
for his jog or for service by Z O'Clock.
The other feeds should be given at reg
ular intervals during the day, the even
ing ration of grain to be accompanied
by a liberal feed Of hay. A stallion do
ing stud duty should be given soft feed
once a day at least and twice day If
he does not scour while being x
cised. In western Kansas the writer
has observed that quite a number Of
stallion owners feed crushed barley
once or twice a day. If more than once
a day, they combine with this excellent
grain a portion Of crushed oats. West
ern Kansas and similar portions of Ne
braska are especially suited to growing
barley, and horse owners in those sec
lions should take advantage of this
fact. If barley is not to be had, bran
is a very suitable food product to COM
bine with the oats. A stallion cannot
do himself Justice that is not a good
feeder or is not given an opportunity
of satisfying his appetite. Dry corn,
poor hay and Indifferent are will not
put a stallion in shape to do himself
Justice in the stud. A most excellent
practice about the stable is to give all
the horses a drink Of water before re-
firing for the night, say at 8 o'clock.
To a stallion serving two mares each.
day the evening drink is very accepta-
BILE and, we believe, is especially neces-
sary. While an aged stallion may serve
two mares each day, with an occasion
al day when three mares are served,
one a day is enough for q 3-year-old,
while n a week is sufficient for a
2-year-old that is not a real thrifty,
rugged colt. +

medium bridge is Of the utmc st
value to the what player; nothing
will SC readily teach the tactics per
tanning to teuace aud fuesse and
the correct valuation OF hands.
s As the principles on which bride q
play is based, with soma modifi.a
ton in the method OF application,
are the same as those underlying
whist, an elt mentary knowledge al
least OF the latter i. a necessary
preparation for the former. The
would b, bridge player who ia IL

aud practice straight whist TOT

bridge table, and then be shoulo

At bridge, even moro than q

interests, which, since at certain
stages the play is entirely under h
control OF one Of tie pair, are ptrn

the Day.

in grand and glorious style.
Early in the morning people be-
gan to arrive from nearby towns
and the surrounding country, and
by 10 o'clock when the street pa.
rade started thousands of people
were within the limits. The
crowd was variously estimated at
from two to three thousand peo-
pie, and it was jolly, good ma
tured crowd, full of patriotism
and bent upon having 4 good time.
And they had it. Not even the
rain which began falling about 2
o'clock in the afternoon and con-
tinued at intervals until late at
night could dampen the ardor of
the people. They found what
shelter they could and wore their
bedraggled clothes with good
grace.
The street parade started at 10
o'clock in the north part Of town
and traversed the principal streets
1t was one-half mile long and had
many amusing features as we'll
as handsome floats, advertising
the different business houses,
Dye Bros, W. H. Pound, Waugh
an & Labaree, and the Petersen
Canal Company, all had approp-
riate and beautifully decorated
wagons. The Julesburg House
had the most comical display seen
in the parade. A large number
of ladies and gentlemen upon
horseback and upon bicycles join
ed the parade. The plug ug-
lies were also in it, the volunteer
fire company and many people in
buggies and carriages. The pa
rade was led by fife and drum
corps from Denver.
At the conclusion of the street
demonstration the crowd repair
ed to the court house where q
splendid program of oratory and
music had been arranged for.
The music was furnished by rep
resentatives of the local church
choirs. The blessing of God
was invoked by Rev. F. E. Eckel
and afterwards the Declaration of
Independence was read by Miss
Caroline Anderson. Then came
the principal event of the day
a treat which had been looked
forward to with great pleasure
ever since it was announced a
few weeks since, and one which
had filled the court room to over
flowing-the address by Hon.
E. E. Armour OF Sterling. Judge
Armour was introduced by Bank
er Hamilton in a short and ap-
propriate speech, and when he
arose to address his audience it
was several moments before he
