In an article in the Animals Friend
G. Leighton discusses the home treat
ment of dogs, the various forms Of dis
temper and their special treatment TO
improper food as well as excess In eat
ing he attributes the chief cause Of this
malady. "a little bread andsmilk or
plain biscuit should alone constitute
his diet, and no alarm needabe felt If
the dog refuses to eat. His appetite
will return with his health" He adds
that bones are distinctly harmful and
frequently fatal, since they loosen the
teeth, give them a taste for meat,
which puts them offttheir proper food,
and If a splinter is swallowed it fire.
Quently becomes impaled in the slungs
or intestines orr causes stoppage, swhen
their doom Is sealed and theS poor

Mexican Etiquette.

Mexican etiquette puts on the new,
conner the responsibility of making AL
the social advances. Visitors to any
principal Mexican city. whatever the,'
rank, foreign ministers not excepted
must in solemn print give notice to eV-
ery family Of any consideration resi-
dent in the municipality that they nave
arrived and put themselves and their
homes at the disposition Of the resi-
dents. otherwise they will receive no
social attention whatever. Intending
visitors to that country need 10 Dc
equipped with this knowledge or the
customs prevailing there. The point Oh
etiquette involved is peculiar 10 tna'
country. having no known existence
elsewhere. The people are very KIND
and hospitable when approached III
their own way, and none other IS I'M
dcrstood or taken any notice OF by
them.

brick block up past the Dakota House,
Miller's store, the post Off ce to CRAM
store, the buildings are not damaged
only by water worth mentioning. This
Is as we saw it, of course there are some
lights Of glass broken. West of this
point there are no buildings left that
would have cash value with us. We
noticed a high water mark on the brick
block door that was five feet and one
half from the side walk, which wQnld
make about feet in the street there and
one block west about 10 feet. A large
portion of the town, is covered with
from to feet OF Ice. The Congrega-
tional church. Col. Shaw's house and
Bowers and scores of others are on their
way to the gulf. Jay Marvin lost all
his buggies, the stable going out. He
was proprietor of the Chandler House
livery. The addition to the Chandler
House went out, and the north end and
half of the east and west sides of the
main part torn away Rhodes, Run
yon's and Lewison's houses all went out.
Jolley's house and the " E. Prentis
property are not damaged Austin's
and Palmer's residences did not seem to
be injured worth noticing. Taking it
together it is the worst sight we ever
looked upon of the kind. Vermillion, it
is thought, is destroyed and the judg-
ment of the best men is that it will not
be rebuilt on the bottom, but on the
bluffs. Every one seemed anxious to
know what the railroad company pur-
posed doing, repair or not repair. The
old channel of the Missouri south of
town holds an immense gorge OF ice at
the time we left, reaching as far as the
eye could see. The water from the
Vermillion and bottom lands is passing
down the open channel in front of Judge
Kidder's which was fully four feet below
its banks. The body of water between
Vermillion and GayVile is being drawn
back into the Missouri by several chan.
nels through the ics and passes through
the cut off the other side of Mons Mel.
sons and five miles south of Vermillion.
as We understand it.
Between Vermillion and Gayville the
loss on stock was tremendous, scarcely
anything being left.
Taylor, of Meckling, has 6 COWS left
from 100 head of cattle; these were drawn
up an inclined plane into the NOW of a
barn. All the elements that the writer
is able to enumerate have fed upon
Taylor's property within the last few
years. He certainly has the sympathy
of all, but sympathy is so thin on such
occasions.
We learned that Bill Elliott, ex mem
Der of the house, lost everything but one
colt.
But TO enumerate we cannot. Hun
dreds are homeless, shoeless and bread
less, and must be cared for. We learned
that the government win issue 800
rations a day until the sufferers can
help themselves. May the needy only
receive 10 our wish.

There are no better or brighter
women in the world than the farmers
wives and daughters of Union county.
Their fame as housekeepers and as eX-
ponents of good cookery is more than
state wide, aud they are especially
quick TO welcome new ideas from any
source. A large element in the pro-
gress of many of our farm homes is the
home department OF the Iowa Home
stead, of Des Moines. Iowa, which
abounds in recipes, household hints,
points In dressmaking, suggestions
about Identifying the farm home and
grounds and editorial chats with sub
scribers on timely topics. These ad-
mirable features and the weekly Sun
day school lesson, In which many farm
ers' wives are deeply interested, make
the Homestead truly ideal pader for
the farmers wife and daughter. In
increasing the circulation OF farm
journals of this character in our county
the COURIER feels that it is rendering
a real service to the farming public.
If you would like to subscribe for The
Homestead or see sample copy of it,
we shall be pleased to attend to the
matter for you.

THE sioux RAMPAGE.

THE SIOUX RAMPAGE.
Not wanting to be outdone by the Big
Muddy" the Sioux river took active
measures the fore part of the week to
eclipse anything in the line of high wa.
ter previously known. and at the present
writing no one viii attempt to say that
she has not done so. She is booming"
and no mistake. Yesterday all the
bridges spanning the Sioux between
Richland and Canton were swept away.
The bridges gone are Beloit, Fairyiew,
Eden and Cailiope railroad bridges and
the Beloit, Portland and Richland wagon
bridges. The only bridge left on the
Sioux from It's mouth TO Canton is the
railroad bridge on the cut off north of
this place, which still stands up bravely,
although several feet of water is running
over the track. The Sioux valley is one
vast sea Of water.
CONTRIBUTION.
Yours truly made a trip to Vermillion
recently and will note few items of in
terest for your readers. In passing Mr..
Maynard's farm, four miles north OF this
place, he informed me that he had lost
during the winter. from all causes, three
good cows, three poor ones and three
calves Mr.. Maynard had about one
hundred bushels OF corn left out last
fall which II now covered with ice and
mud. Itcan never be gathered, but some
may be saved by turning the cattle in.
All along the slough side OF Maynards
past Olson y and on up 10 Andrews place,
there is on the ground large bodies Of
Missouri and slnsh Ice, some or 1t piled,
ct this time, twelve feet high. In many
places this Ice Is covered with debris Of
every description, such as cordwood.
pine lumber. doors, windows, parts Of
wagons, etc. Many persons are out in
boats gathering from the general wreck.

miles every ten rods there ii pile 81

The Bar Association under's
direction refused to allow cOlOred
lawyers to be present or par
ticipate in the Raymond inves-
tigatiOn. Yet these same fel-
lows permitted white lawyers
who are under Indictment in the
court to be present and file any
amount of rot calling them
charges. We can't see any diff
ference between the fellows in
Jail under Indictment and the
fellow outside of jail who is al
SO under Indictment, except one
is a prisoner for want of bond
and the other a prisonea who
got bond. Now to be consis-
tent why not allow those in jail
a chance to present their charges
against the Judge. Every fel
low who has been sentenced
has a kick coming at least to his
own satisfaction. Also those
who have been sent to the pen
should be permstted to file their
kicks. 1t would be just as SEN
sible as the excluding of colored
lawyers and the permitting of
indicted men to file charges.
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1905-03-23

There is one man on the Dem
Ocrat ticket that can neither
read nor write. If this was
true of a colored man on the
ticket a great howl would go up,
but the fact is, all of our men
can read and write and are tax
payers. The Union labor outfit
proceeded to make a ticket by
taking most of the democrats
and a few of the republican
nominees and calling it their
ticket. They showed their ha-
tired for the Negro by resusing
to select one for a place on the
ticket. The Negro now knows
what the union thinks of him.
The Muskogee cimeter. [volume] (Muskogee, Indian Territory, Okla.) 1901-19??, 1905-03-23

Bert Greer shows his Negro
phobia when he made up his
ticket, he left out the Negro be
cause he thinks he can use the
Negro as a tool. He tried it
once and when he goes fishing
again he will find that the Ne
gro has a good memory. Bert
is still lilywhite.

There are five cOlOred men on
the ticket. all of them property
owners, and each of them can
read and write. The Democrat
party can't say the same.
