years as in Clydesdales, The type Of

ty years ago would have no chance
now, the refining process being most
marked in this breed. This improve.
ment has been brought about partly
by the organization of the Shire Horse
Society and its annual shows, accom-.
panied by veterinary inspection, but
principally through the efforts Of a
mere handful Of progressive breeders
who, to tell the truth, took their cue
from the Scotch breeders and have
been endeayoring all these years to
the defective limbs and feet
and faulty hook action Of the massive
English horses. The average Shire
breeder still maintains with remarka.

the animal, but this claim Is by no
means confirmed either by the show

Occasionally farm animals are al
fected by rabies, and in nearly all
such cases the trouble Is traceable TO
sore rabid dog that has bitten the
aplmals. Doubtless 1t would lie i'm
possible in the rural districts to en-
force the muzzling Of all CANNES. Fer
haps 1t Is not as necessary in the coun'
try as in the city. But in the cities
at least the effect of muzzling has been
very good, as well IN the United States
as in Europe 1t is interesting to note
tho conflict oye~ this ordinance In
England. Several hundred cases Of
rabies each year led the English au-
thoritles to look into the matter. They
found evidences to prove that the
disease was caused largely by rabid
dogs biting other dogs and animals.
Muzzling Of all dogs was reported to
DO the only means Of preventing the
spread Of the disease. Laws were
passed making muzzling compulsory.
The number Of cases Of rabies In 1889
was S12. The law went into effect at
the end of that year. In 1890 the
number of cases had decreased to
100; the next year they fell to 70,
and in 1892 decreased still further to
3S. But the opposition to muzzling
was SO determined that the practice
was discontinued. The result was
a steady increase of the disease dur.
Ing the following years. In 1893 there
were 90 cases; in 1894, 24S cases; 1896,
672 cases. At this point the public
alarm had become so great that muz-
zling was again enforced. The mum.
Der of cases in 1896 were 43S; in
1897, Isl; in 1898, II, and in 1899, 9.
From November, 1899, to March 30,
1900, no case Of rabies was reported
n England, and 1t was believed that
he disease had been exterminated In
England. We have at hand no report
showing rabies in the last three years.
The record made there was certainly
| remarkable one and seems to dem.
'nstrate quite clearly the value Of
Whether after the disease
vas exterminated in locality it

MAJOR ALLIGER'S HARD FATE.
St. Louis Man, Once Vastly Wealthy,
Dies in Poverty.

Major Elijah Alliger, formerly a
wealthy resident of New York, died in
st. Louis the other day in abject pov-
erty. Before the war he was reputed
to be worth nearly million dollars
and was a leader in social and bust
ness circles. He was one Of the com.
panions Of the Prince Of Wales, now
King Edward, on his western hunting
trip, and served with distinction in
the Union army during the war of the
rebellion. He lost his fortune in
backing a patent air brake, was de-
serted by his wife and daughter, went
west to Denver, where he led a pre-.
carlous existence for several years,
and few months ago made his way
to st. Louis, where he died in a char.
table institutions. Chicago Chronicle.

A Disease Of the Prlvet.

Some Of the privet hedges Of Still
water are being greatly damaged, If
not destroyed, by q fungous disease Of
a sort which is called "antlracnose."
The fungus Of this disease attacks and
kills the bark and wood Of the stems,
says a report Of the Oklahoma station.
Starting at a point on the stem, 1t
spreads through and around the
stems. When the leaves Of the plant
first begin to wither, the place at.
tackled by the fungus may often be
located Just below the lowest Of the
withered leaves and above the green
ones, II there are any such on the
shoot. Close inspection reveals the
fact that the bark is slightly shrunken
at the point Of injury, and, II the stem
be sliced lengthwise, the diseased
wood and bark will be found to be dis
colored, while that below, II healthy,
will be fresh, and that above simply
seasoned. The wood above the point
Of the first attack dries out, and the
fungus seems to spread down the stem
to the crown Of the plant, and from
there to all the roots and stalks. About
the point of first attack black spots
appear on the bark, and when the
bark thus spotted is scraped or cut, 1t
Is found that these spots are the open.
ngs Of spore-bearing postules. Hedges
which have not yet been injured by
his disease should be closely watched,
Ind at the first sign Of attack by this
disease all the injured shoots should

)urned. II the crown or roots are
Effected the plant should be removed
'odily and burned. In case the hedge

THE LIVE STOCK EXPOSITION.
International Show at Chicago a Most
Important Event.


The International Live Stock Ex-
position stands to-day monument
bearing witness to the rapidity and
stability of American enterprise and
achievement. Scarcely four years ago
the newborn and fondly cherished
ideas of the Union Stock Yard and
Transit Co. bore fruit in tho first In
ternational. At the last Exposition
In December 1902, there were gath.
cred together in competition horses,
cattle, sheep and swine from nearly
every state in the Union and from
Canada and Europe; and these the
product of the most careful breeding
OF many decades.
The International Is very potent
educational factor None but the
most perfect types Of live stock are
gathered together there, mostly win
ners from the expositions during the
preceding season. From these the
breeder can formulate correct ideals.
This must result in greater uniformity
in live stock production. The questions
Of correct types and how to produce
and maintain them, are all important
to-day. Hitherto there has been too
great diversity Of opinion along this
line.
The necessity for more quality" in
live stock products Is one of the i'm
portant questions Of the day. By
quality we mean even, thick-feshed
carcasses carrying the greatest pos
slble amount of edible material devoid
of excessive fairness. The time has
been when fat won in the show ring;
but recently the international has
provided magnificent demonstrations
by way Of slaughter tests, impressing
the necessity of quality" in the car
cass. The ability Of the producer to
inspect animals on foot and then the
carcasses after dressing, furnishes
him with rare and impressive object
lessons.
1t is a rare privilege for the stock
breeders of America to have an oppor.
tunity annually Of attending one of the
greatest live stock expositions of the
world; to come in contact with the {

Great Realm of Horticulture,

A prominent writer on horticulture
says: From the horticultural side of
the business, there are tree great
series Of questions with which the nur-
seryman has to deal. These are the
whole question Of soil, the whole ques.
ton Of propagation and the whole
question Of varieties. Any one Of
these fields Is large enough to occupy
an Investigator probably during a
lifetime. The probability is that If
any man were to devote his life to
either of these series Of questions,
he would feel at the last that he had
touched only the borders Of it.

ABLE MEN SUGGESTED

Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jacskon, March 23.-Governor Lon
gino will not take up the matter of
selecting successor of the late AS
sociate Justice Terrall for several days.
The point has been raised that the
temporary appointment of J. Fl. Price
to complete the March term for Justice
Terrlal, made several days before
Judge Terralls death, is invalidated
by the death vacancy, and this con-
tention will first be carefully looked
into.
Some of the ablest jurists in the
state have been suggested for the
place, among the number being Cir
ciut Judge jeff Truly, Chancellor H.
&c. Conn, Circuit Judge J. Fl. Neville,
Judge j. H. Price, the present tenn
porary incumbent and Hon. A. H.
Miller. The unexpired term is about
three years. The governor has al
ready received quite a number of en-
dorsements of the various persons sug-
gested for the place. At meeting of
the bar of the state after the reading
of the Monday decisions of the su-
preme court appropriate resolutions
respecting the death of Justice Terrall
will be adopted.

C0PIAH COUNTY COURT
Will Be Convened at HazlehurSt
First Monday in April
Docket Small.
Special to the Daily Progress

Special to the Daily Progress
Jackson, March 23.-Judge Powell
will convene the regular term of the
Copiah county circuit court at Hazel
hurst ON the first Monday in April.
Only one case that has attracted gen.
eral attention is on the criminal
docket for trial at the approaching
term, being that of G. Y. Boyd, the
alleged wife poisoner of Crystal
Springs, who has been confined in Jail
for several months.
Interesting developments in the
Boyd case are promised when Antonio
Dukes, the condemned murderer, is
placed on the stand as one of the prin-
cipal witnesses against the prisoner.
1t is stated that Boyd has made dam
aging confessions to Dukes during the
incarceration of the pair in Jail, and
Dukes was granted reprieve in order
to secure his evidence.
Copiah county not many years since
was regarded as one of the most law
less communities in Mississippi, but
of late it has become one of the most
orderly and law-abiding, the crimi.
nal dockets at each court term being
small and confined chiefly to minor
felonies. 1t is believed that Judge
Powell's anti-lynhcing crusade in the
county several years ago had mos
salutatory effect on the morals of the
people, and the lawless element was
thoroughly cowed by the rigid inves
itigation made.

Jackson, March %. Anxiety over
the food situation in the delta has
detracted to considerable extent dur
ing the past week from the interest in
the campaign, and particularly the
governorship contest. The condition
Of the levees has been Of far more in
terest to the public than the squabble
between Messrs. Fox and Critz, which
is the only development that has
caused comment of any extent, and the
average voter cares but little how it
may be settled, as there is marked
apathy toward allowing personal
grievances of candidates to overshadow
the vital issues of the battle.
Thus far Judge Critz has not ac-
cepted the challenge of Mr.. Fox to
submit their differences to the people
of Clay county for settlement, and it
is quite unlikely that he will do So.
