HOG CHOLERA
State Board of Health Is Alarmed at
Outbreak.

Hog cholera has appeared at various
points in Mobiles, Jackson, Martin, Fari-
bault, Freedom and Fillmore counties.
This sudden outbreak in nearly every
county along the Iowa boundary has
alarmed the state board of health, which
is. informed that the disease is now de-
stroying thousands of hogs throughout
Iowa. A hurried trip through the af-
fiicted counties of this state has been
made by the boards veterinarian, DR.. S.
D. Brinhall. who has directed DR.. j. G..
Armand to make thorough examination.
Although hog cholera reappears from
time to time in spite of all precautions,
it can usually be stamped out without
delay Directions for such an effort have,
therefore, been sent in circular form to
the farmers whose stock has been
stricken. $500:
The most important measure, says DR..
Brimhall, is to prevent the spread of the
contagion by killing or isolating all dogs,
chickens and other animals or fowls that
have come in contact with the sick hogs.
and by burning the bodies or burying them
far underground.

the COPPER. CRAZE.

Interest in This Ore Is Feature Of local
? Investment.
! Minneapolis is getting interested in cop
per. There Is more talk about it than
any other metal. The statement has been
made that Senator Clark has refused an
offer of $500, 900, 000-ive hundred millions
for the famous United Verde mine in
Arizona, but a copper authority pro-
nounces the story pure rot At the
same time the United Verde mine is one
of the sensationally great mining proper
ties of the world.
Very little is actually known about the
United verde-even the minority stock
holders know practically nothing Of what
is going on inside. The ore produced av-
erages about 7 or 8 per cent, Of copper.
! The ore from the Bitter Root Copper
mine, which is owned by Minnesota men
principally, and of which Postmaster
Beebe Of Winnebago- City is president
averages more than twice as high In cop
per values, and according to recent re-
ports from the property, there is ore enough
there to pay $25, O00, 900. Stock Of this COM
pany is now being sold. S. S. Secor, the
general manager Of the company, who is
cashier of one of the Winnebago City
banks, was in Minneapolis yesterday. He
says the company's affairs are progress
ing finely. Work on the mines is being
pushed rapidly before snow falls, al
though regular mining operations can be
carried on in winter quite as well as in
summer The company has enough ore
developed to warrant the erection OF a
matte smelter,- and it is for the purpose
of building the smelter and other Improve
ments that stock is now being offered. =.
The present price of shares is rs cents
to be advanced soon. .: Parties interested
are invited to CALL: see specimens, photo

decade in a mans life. During this in
terval are developed and matured the
Physical, Mental and Sexual powers Cir
cumstances and surroundings have much
to do with the formation of character and
individuality Of the man. but to a great
extent the carving of the future depends
on himself. Any deviation from or trans
gression Of Natures laws may alter or
change a whole future. Hard work, long
study, intemperance, gambling, evil as
sociations, etc.. have broken down many
a hardy youth and wrecked what prom
ised to be brilliant career. Temptations,
dangers and designations are everywhere.
and 1t requires discretion and strong will
power to resist them. OF all the evils
besetting our young, men, none is more
prevalent and destructive than the soil
tary habit Of self-abuse. So common is
this vicious practice among boys that not
ten In every hundred escape it's baneful
effects. Modesty prevents parents from
advising their children, and the poor vic
tim finds out when too, late that he has
made a fatal error. We see the victims
of this harmful vice on every hand The
sallow, pimpled face. dark circled eyes
