The Latest Frog story

From Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania.
comes the following: Mrs. Bridget
Mangan of Minnoka, near here, has
coughed up two frogs and is enjoying
relief after an illness of several weeks.
Physicians are puzzled by her case.
Early in the spring she was attacked
by severe pains in the stomach which
would not yield to any treatment. Six
days ago this pain was succeeded by .
steady and overpowering thirst. DR..
Haggerty. in the hope Of aiding her.
gave her an emetic and to his surprise
she was relieved Of small frog. Yes
terday the thirst began again. He gave
her another emetic and this time q
frog four inches long was evicted. She
has not had pain since.
DR.. Haggerty believes she swallowed
the frogs In drinking water when they
were tiny tadpoles. He will send the
frogs to the New York Medical uni.
versity.

postponing the consideration of the
two main issues-indemnity, and the
cession Of Saghalin. So far as ascer-
tainable, the Japanese were responsi.

As the mantle Of secrecy has been
thrown around the proceedings by mu-
tual pledges not to divulge what hap
pened within the council chamber.
there are missing links in the chain Of

whether this signifies backdown on

On the face of things both sides are

Denver. Colo, Aug. 15.-Dr. Charles
q. Lamb. state veterinarian, returned
yesterday from an extended trip in the
eastern part Of the State. where he
has been investigating mango among
khe cattle. He found several punches
that were affected and SOME reported
taffected that are really all right.
DR.. Lamb reports less mango at the
present time among Colorado cattle
than for many years past. This Ia ow-
ing to the new law which. gives the
board Of stock inspection authority to
dip cattle and charge the cost to the
owners where they are negligent about
acting. The laws are more stringent
IN other ways also, so that the disease
Is being stamped out.
