There is a disease spreading
among horses that acts something
like distemper. Some animals
cough great deal, others suffer in
the eyes and many are afflicted with
swollen throats. The disease has
found its way to the race horses.
A well known horseman says that
when it gets into a stable it attacks
the animal in various ways.

the weather was unfavorable. The

nice weather prevailed. The

1t is neither tempting nor encour-
aging to single people, to hear that
an eighty-year-old colored resident
was called before a Wilkes Barre
magistrate a few days ago to an
swer a charge of desertion perferred
by his wife. One would think that
surely the aged couple would have
learned to understand each other
perfectly during all the years that

said there are things in heaven and
