SOME CATTLE DYING.
Dry Murrain Does Damage in Mont
gomery County.


gomery County.
CherryvaIe, Kas.. Oct. 1s.-Abont
half dozen cattle have died in
CherryvaIe and vicinity the past few
days. Henry CrowI, the cattleman,
has lost two, and James Sutton Thurs
day night lost a valuable milch COW.
The fact that a number of cattle were
sick caused alarm to prevail lest some
infectious disease had broken out
Veterinary Surgeon Randall held a
postm ortem examination of one or
Henry CrOwPS animals and pro-
nounced the trouble dry murrain and
impaction. He found the manifold to
contain at least a large bucketful of
hay powdered fine and quite dry,
which is a, sure indication of dry muir
rain. The disease is brought about
by a peculiar state. of the grass and
is not infectious At this season OF
the year, when the first light frosts
come and the grass and weeds begin
to die, there is something about the
vegetation that is liable to be harm
full to cattle, and at this time they need
an abundance of salt, as this mineral
seems to counteract the peculiar erect
the grass is liable to produce. There
fore let him who would keep his cattle
healthy give them plenty of salt
J. H. Johnson. live stock sanitary
commissioner of Kansas, was in town
on his way home from Liberty, where
he was ordered by Governor Bailey
to inspect cattle belonging to Henry
Snyder that mad Oeen qudfdnllnSo
Some of the cattle had become sick
and a few had died. Texas fever was
feared, quarantine established, and
the inspector sent for. Upon close
examina ton he found not the slightest
symptoms of the dreaded disease. The
trouble was dry murrain- A calf that
was sick was also found very lousey,
and some who had hard that Texas
fever was carried by a tick thought
that was the trouble. But the in
spector found the fear ungrounded,
and the quarantine was raised. He
was called to Elk City about three
weeks ago, when it was feared Texas
feevr had broken out there, but it,
too, was a false alarm.
1.-The state has been remarkably
free from Texas fever this year., said
Mr.. johnson. Parsons is absolutely
the only place that the disease has
been found among native cattle, and
by prompt, rigid measures it was
stamped out.
Eat this season of the year." he
went on to say, cattle would not in
feet. The disease is carried by a tick,
and while in warm weather it requires
about fifteen days for the larvae to
hatch, at this season. with the cool
nights, it requires from four to six
weeks, and ere that time comes the
eggs are destroyed
Just watch the feed, and give plenty
of salt.

SCARCITY. OF INFIELDERs.
Only One in the Eastern League
Worthy of Major Position.

NOItly u NAa5OE Il OSAtAOhs
New York, Oct. 1S.-Only one field
er in the Eastern league shows skill
enough to warrant his promotion to
the National and American leagues.
Hugh Jennings of the Baltimore team
is quoted as advancing that opinion.
Manager Kelly of the Reds is re-
ported; to have said:
Conditions regarding infielders in
the big leagues are getting to an
alarming stage. Take our own team,
for instance. We have need of one,
and perhaps. two, good infielders, yet
we are able, to get only two promising
infieIders from the minor leagues and
if both these should fail before spring
we would be in a sad plight indeed.
The scarcity of -infielders who are
ready for fast company is. best shown
by a talk I had with Hugh Jennings
the other. day. Jennings has been
playing in the Eastern league all sea-
son. I asked Jennings if there were
any good infielders in the Eastern,
and he replied:
There is just one man in the eight
teams who looks to me as though he
might do in fast company, and that is
Lewis, the shortstop of the Baltimore
team, over whom the Brooklyns and
New York Americans had a squabble.
Lewis has all the earmarks of being
of big league caliber, and he is the
only one, too, of whom I can say
that -

CoRBETr FAvoRs ANIERIC.
Thinks Fight With White Would Draw
More in This Country.

New York, Oct. 1S.-Young Corbett
has experienced a sudden change of
mind regarding his proposed match
with Jabez White, the English cham
pion featherweight. Although it has
been practically decided to hold the
fight at the National Sporting club in
London, the Denverite declares he
and White can secure more money by
fighting in this country.
Corbett thinks one of the clubs on
the coast would willingly give $4,000
or $4,000 for the match. He also be-
lieves that If White would consent to
meet him in a six-round bout in Phila-
delphia they would draw one of the
biggest crowds that ever attended a
boxing contest in that city.
Corbett has come to the conclusion
that he would have less difficulty in
beating White If they fought in Amer
lea, as the atmospheric conditions
abroad have had a detrimental effect
on him. However. if White insists on
a fight in England, the westerner says
he will surrender to the inevitable.
Corbett has been matched to fight
Battling Nelson in California within
the next two months. Billy Roche
made the match. The men will weigh
at 6 o'clock on the day of the fight.
The date of the bout has not been set.
Young Corbett and his trainer.
Harry Tuthill, will leave for the coast
Monday. Corbett announced that he
could not be ready to fight until the
latter part of November.

FOUR CoRNERED MATCH.
Mccoy Thinks Fftz, O'Brien, Ryan and
Himself Should Fight

New York. Oct. 1s.-Kid Mccoy
suggests that Bob Fitzsimmons, "Phil-
adelphia" Jack O'Brien, Tommy Ryan
and himself shall meet in a four cor
nered match for the middleweight
championship of the world. In a let
ter to a friend in this city Mccoy, who
is now on his way from San Fran
cisco, says:
"All of US cannot be the champion
At the present time Fitz, Ryan and
claim the title. The only way to settle
the question is to fight it out and the
man who emerges the victor from the
last contest shall be the undisputed
champion. would suggest that
O'Brien and Ryan meet in a 20-round
bout,~tlle winner of which shall agree
to take on either Fitz or me. The
man who gets the decision in that
fight should cross arms with the man
who has not fought I think that is
the only solution of the problem. I
am willing to fight Ryan, sO'Brien or
Fitz as a starter. 1t makes no diff
ference to me, for I am confident that
1 can whip any man in the world at
the middleweight limit"
