STRICKEN districts Of Louisiana has
been one Of the exciting and spectacu-

scourge this year. Refugees from New
Orleans and the other Louisiana towns
in which the yellow fever has appeared
have been hemmed in with gatling
guns and muskets in the detention
camps along the coast or near the
state lines of Mississippi, Texas and
Alabama. Great railroad and steam
ship transportation lines, extending
around half continent, have been
shut down" SO far as New Orleans

In the enforcement of the quarantine

was prevalent and hostilities might
have begun on a grand scale at any

1mbroglio on Land.
A clash between the land forces Of
the two states seems to have been more
probable than between the forces afloat
in gulf and bay. Violation Of the
sacred soil Of Louisiana by invasion of
Mississippi soldiers was the cause Of
the imbroglio on land. Dunbar. a
small town on the Louisiana side of
the state line. was the place invaded
by the troops from Mississippi. It was
not claimed that the invaders came
with hostile intent and their real mis-.
sion was known to be to get their
meals, as Dunbar was the only ac-
cessible place to get food In the coun-
try where the armed men of MISSISSIPPI

broken out in the Crescent City. So
Gov. Blanchard ordered Gov. Vardaman
to keep his troops at his own side Of
the state line. which in effect was de-
NAL to them of a place to eat on
Louisiana's terra flrma.
Because Of the friction engendered
by the fierce controversy of the two
governors the travellers seeking to
break through the quarantine lines
were held back at the lannon's mouth
and the point Of bayonet. It was an
unusual state of affairs-a condition
unique in the history of the country.
When the New Orleans populace
realized that soldiers of the neighbor-
ing state had invaded Louisiana with
arms and gunboats the indignation was
so intense and general that even the
pressing necessity Of fighting the
spread Of yellow fever by making war
upon mosquitoes was not permitted to
stand in the way Of preparations for
measures Of reprisals and retaliation,
A hght-draft vessel was chartered for
the naval brigade Of the states militia
and it was announced that this vessel
would be fitted out and armed with
howitzers and machine guns and would

GUST THE DEMON.
A Tussle with Coffee.

There is something fairly demoniacal
in the way coffee sometimes wreaks its
iendish malice on those who use it.
A lady writing from Calf. says
my husband and !, both lovers Of
coffee, suffered for some time from q
very annoying form of nervousness, ac-
companied by most frightful head
aches. In my own case there was
eventually developed some sort Of af-
lection of the nerves leading from the
spine to the head.
Il was unable to hold my head up
straight, the tension Of the nerves drew
it to one side, causing me the most in
tense pain. We got no relief from
medicine. and were puzzled IS to what
caused the trouble. till . friend sug-
gested that possibly the coffee we
drank had something to do with it,
and advised that we quit It, and try
Postum Coffee.
I'VE followed his advice, and from
the day that we began to use Postum
we both began to improve, and in
a very short time both Of us were en-
tirely relieved. The nerves became
steady once MORE the headache ceased.
the muscles in the back Of my neck re-
Taxed, my head Strengthened up, and
the dreadful pain that had so punished
me while I used the old kind of coffee
vanished.
Eve have never resumed the use Of
the old coffee, but relish our Postum

beverage. And we are delighted to find
that we can give it freely to our chill

to do with the old kind Of coffee"

Surgery for Dogs
lSle r.

ornamental surgery in its application to
mankind is very well known, but In its ap-
plication to dogs 1t is so new that the world
has heard little of it," said local veterina-
rian today.
1.-THE world understands the process
whereby on men and women ornamental
surgery removes wrinkles, straightens
crooked noses and sets close to the head
ears that stick out. 1t has never heard of
the process whereby on dogs straight tail
that should be kinky receives the requisite
curls and twists: whereby King Charles
spaniePs nose that is too long and pendu-
lous is shortened and turned up; whereby
a straight coat is made permanently curly:
whereby marks of every description are
permanently added to or permanently sub
tracted from dogs at will.
TN Washington It is easy to find these
dog specialists. these sculptors of living
canine flesh. The men are, as rule, dog
breeders. They have kennels, more or less
extensive, where they rear b}oo1ed and
costly stock. And necessarily an important
branch Of their work is this artifieial im-
proving OF their dogs. for often by little
surgical manipulation of a puppy they are
able to increase it's value 200 or 800 per
cent. ~
They are willing to work on other mems
dogs AZ well as on their own Here - ,
