ANTHRAX KILLS loo CATTLE.
Frank Sheppard in the Hospital.


Ten DAYS ago dead cattle were found or
Round and Ragged Islands in Delaware
bay, off the main land of Salem and Cum
berland counties. At first it was supposed
they had been killed by lightning, but
investigation showed that they were
stricken with that most virulent of dis
eases, anthrax. The State authorities were
notified, and Immediately dispatched DIR.
T. B. Rogers to the scene Of the outbreak.
Anthrax is the most contagious disease
known. 1t attacks all kinds of animal
life, and is transmitted to human beings
by means of milk. 1t appears in the form
of malignant boil, hard and seldom sup
purating. 1t is supposed to originate from
an insect and the germ is almost indis-
tructible.
Many times in recent years the disease
has appeared among cattle of New Castle
County, Delaware, supposed to have been
contracted from the refuse Of foreign hides
used in the tanneries at Wilmington. This
disease is prevalent in the Southern States
and many hides coming from these States
are used at this tannery.
At first the veterinarians thought they
had the disease under control, but it has
broken out over the entire district from
Bridgeton to Shilo and north as far as Fort
Mott, and unless stamped out, there is a
possibility of its spreading over South
Jersey.
The State Board of Health has sent one
thousand doses of anthrax virus, and
veterinarians Horner, Kille, Tremaine,
Christy and Thomas B. and Carroll Rogers
are engaged in inoculating all cattle in the
infected zone. As stated in the headline of
this article 100 cattle have died, and Frank
Sheppard, one of the owners of the cattle
originally stricken, is in the hospital i'll
with the disease, which he contracted in
skinning one of his dead animals, before he
knew the nature of the disease.

MacFarIand Races.

Last Saturdays matinee races at Mac
Farland's track near this city were the best
ever given on this track. The three events
were real tests of speed, and the best horse
won in each class
There were four entries in the 2. Is class.
Ohio NJ. by B. L. Tuft; Guy Thistle, by
j. H. Meredith; Mary s., by d. Bodine,
and Trilby Simmon, by ]. G. Green. There
were three splendid heats, and the horses
went under the wire in the order in which
they are printed above, the first heat in
2.17l and the last two in 2.179. Purse
500.
There were four entries in the 227 class.
Moss Rose, by William MacFarland, Vel
vet Slipper, by G. w. Murphy; Miss Sue,
by J. B. Green and Cornelia, by George
Robbery. The horses finished in each
heat in the order here printed. Time
2.27l, 2274, 2.284. Purse, 500.
There were eight starters in the 2 4o
class as follows:-Sllm Jim, by J. E.
Lingo; Hettie D., by j. B. Green
Queen Onward, by William Mcfarland
Sea Water, by EdLynn Davis; DaCosta, by
S. Blackstone; Almeda, by Thomas Mac
Farland; Miss Allerton, by Danl Swee-
ten.
The race was won by Silver Jim, in three
stright heats in 231, 229 and 2279, with
Hettie D second, Queen Onward third,
and Sea Water fourth Purse, 500.
An attraction between heats was the
exhibition of trained pigs, sheep and steers
by Professor Holder, of Indiana. There
were eight hogs, and they climbed ladders,
shot the shute, stood on pedestals, rolled
barrels, jumped through hoops, fired a
cannon and teetered on board. They
were of the razorback variety, but had
good Indiana training.
The sheep and steers afforded just as
interesting an attraction as the pigs, but
somehow we expect more intelligence in
these than swine.
Good judges estimate that there were
from 1000 to 1900 people present.

nae IAuNcH OF THE MoNaotfA
A. the New York ship.Building Plant

The largest ship ever launched on the
Delaware, and the second largest ever
launched in the United States, slid grace
fully from the cradle in which she had
been constructed at the works of the New
York Shipbuilding Company, between
Woodbury. and Camden, at 2. 40 last Satur-
day afternoon, and settled into her native
element on the bosom of the Delaware as
gracefully as swan.
A complete description of this great ship
is impossible at this time, but such infor-
nation as is obtainable will interest all our
readers, because these works, while few
miles distant from our city, yet are con-
sidered a Woodbury. interest, because so
many of its master minds have come to
make their homes in our midst.
The Mongolia is being constructed for
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and
is destined for traffic between San Fran
cisco and Honolulu and Japan and China
Her dimensions are 615 feet length over all,
65 feet beam, 81 feet depth Of hold, with a
displacement of 26, $50 tons, and dead
weight carrying capacity of $4,000 TONS
Her horse power will be about II, 900 and
the average speed will be about 16 knots
As regards type she follows the now accep-
ted standard for this class of work, being a
fiye-deck vessel, with a complete shelter
deck and large bridge house amidship on
this deck She is being built under the
special survey of, and to take the highest
classification in, the American Record and
Lloyd's Register. She will accommodate
about $50 first-class passengers, 6S second
class passengers and 1900 steerage passen-
gers.
AS she rides in the Delaware to-day,
without machinery of any kind, her weight
is $50, 900 tons, and her cost at this stage
of her construction is 81, 500, 900. A few
facts of different character than usually
accompany a report of a ships launching
will be interesting at this point. 1t re-
quired ninety barrels of tallow to grease
the ways to launch the Mongolia" The
table and bed linen will be especially made
in Belfast, and will cost 5000; 5000
towels will be required. The ships silver
will be of special pattern and cost S., 600;
her china will be Of finest foreign manu-
facture; she will have fifty-two first-class
bath tubs, besides numerous ordinary
baths.
A large number of Woodburians attend
ed the launch. Among those present on
the launching stage as the guests of Vice
President and Manager Hall, we
noticed Mr. and Mrs. John Rachor, Jr.,
Mr.. and Mrs. Thos w. Hurff, Edward
Davis and sister, Mrs. F. J. Barnhart, of
Washington, D. c., and Major C. F. Salk-
eld.

COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.

All the members of Council were present
at the stated meeting on Tuesday evening
last, except Mr.. Chenoweth.
After the minutes Of the last stated meet
ing were read and approved, the ordinance
regulating the opening of the streets OF the
city, introduced at the last meeting, was
/ further considered and passed by unani-
nous vote.
Mr.. Batten presented resolution author
| izing the execution of contract with the
/ Public Service Corporation to light the
streets of the city for term OF five years
from July l, 1903. On motion OF Mr..
Kueler the resolution was adopted, and
then the contracts were presented.
Mr.. Davis asked that the new be COM
pared with the old contracts, and it was
found that the penalty clause was changed
to read AN amount equal to the cost OF
lights" Mr.. Davis thought the old clause,
which made the penalty twice the amount
of the cost of light, was preferable and after
discussion the clause was amended to con-
form to the old contract The contracts
were then approved On motion the Street
committee was instructed to place COW
cred gutter across Delaware street at Wood.
The condition of the pavement in front
of the Thorp property at German and
Franklin street was complained of and the
property owner was notified to repair same.
Mr.. Munyan sad Park avenue was badly
in need of repairs One-half the street is
in the city and one-half in the township;
the Township committee offered to pay
half the cost Of repairs if done by the city.
On motion the Street committee was en-
powered to make the repairs when the
township committee enter into written
agreement to that effect. Complaint was
made by Mr.. Glover that the sewer con-
tractor neglected to replace cobbles that he
tore up. The work was reported being
looked after.
Mr. Burkett moved that when Council
adjourn, it do so for four weeks. Carried.
Mr. Batten presented the plan of i'm
provement of Cooper street. Mr. Davis
said it was now 1O.15 o'clock, and moved
that consideration be postponed until next
meeting. Mr. Batten replied that some
thing must be done with Cooper street, as
it was in an unsafe condition. If he put
gravel on, the first rain would carry it
away The motion to postpone for four
weeks was as follows:
Aye-Burkett, Davis, Glover, Hender-
son, Munyan. 5.
No-Reading, Batten, Kugler. 3.
An extension of 200 feet of 4-inch pipe
was ordered on Woodland avenue, south of
Cooper.
A plumbers license was ordered issued
to F. V. Myers, Jr.

Mayor Ladd was read: 81 want to call
your attention to the poor electric lights

sample of the 1900 candle power lights, our
city needs a different kind of light.
A vacation of two weeks was allowed the
librarian to begin the last of August
p B. Burke, real estate agent, was per-
mitted to erect a sign across the sidewalk
at No II Cooper street, under supervision

There seems to be considerable feeling
between some of our boys and some of the
Clayton boys, owing to dispute they had
over game of base ball recently played at
Clayton. We hear that some of our people
are talking of stopping the Clayton Reporter
on account of the controversy. Surely
there are not many who would be SO baised
in this view as to boycott paper for
something the paper is not responsible for,
and especially over such trifing affair as
a game of ball. Let Williamstown and
Clayton come together and be friends, as
neighbors should be. We always get along
well with Glassboro, and there is no reason
why we should not with Clayton.
The Clayton reporter is now furnishing
us with paper called The Walliamsto,on Re

lowed suit, and is furnishing us with one
called the Williamstown Observer. There
