CRUELTY TO ANNALS.

In a number Of cities in Mississip-
pl there are societies organized for
the prevention Of cuelty to animals
and frequently we have read where
arrests have been made and the par
ties properly punished. Cruelty to
animals is a violation of the State
code and where there is no society
to enforce the laws the officers of
such communities should arrest per
sons who abuse dumb animals. A
few days ago we noticed a negro
driving a horse, which could hardly
walk, through Main Street, the ami
NAL was nothing but skin and bones,
his shoulders and back we're sore
and the negro was whipping him
every step to keep him moving.
There are people who tie their ami
mails up for hours or days without
food or water. If the pains and
groans Of these poor dumb beasts
is not sufficient to reach the heart
OF the owner, perhaps his heart
might be reached through his peck
ct book, by a pretty stiff fine for
his meanness. If these poor ami
mails were not slaves Of men and
were allowed to run the fields in
their nativity, they could provide
for themselves, but as they are
slaves, the owners should be forced
to treat them humanely -McComb

MISSISSIPPI INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION.

building is in better repair now
than for years past, The exposition
people have put in about 300 win
dow lights and they have spent
considerable money repairing the
roof and walls. The grounds are
being beautihed, and under the
terms Of the lease, the exposition
management must help keep up the
Confederate park adjacent to the cap
It0l grounds.
Plans are almost perfected for
opening day, November 9TH, Of the
exposition this year, An attractive
program is being arranged and not
withstanding the Horse Show, and
other interesting features, which
will be seen later in the week, the
first day will perhaps attract the

ABOUT SEVENTY-FIvE DIED AT NEW MEXICAN PENl-
 TENTIARY.

As a result of anthrax fever conta- territorial penitentiary of New Mex ico in the last few months. The cpl Zootic started about the first of the year in the drove of 12O, and Monday when the veterinary surgeon, NJ. H. Deacon. began the process of vaccina, ton there were fifty-slX left
 It is thought that those which were vaccinated will be saved, as vaccina- tion is believed to be a cure for the disease.
 Anthrax fever. on account of its frightful mortality, is one of the most dreaded diseases that attacks the brute creation. It usually occurs in the form of an epizootic. and an out break of it means certain destruction to a large proportion of herbiyorous animals in the path of its march. Horses, cattle, mules. sheep, hogs and goats are the sufferers, and as these comprise the valuable domestic animals, the pecuniary loss is always heavy in the infected region I It's progress is so rapid that stock owners rarely have time to adopt ! measures of relief when the disease has once made it's appearance in the vicinity. Anthrax is also communica, ble to man, and this adds greatly to 1 it's terrorS.
 1 Anthrax is Q germ disease. the | germs entering the body usually with i food. but sometimes through sores or { scratches on the skin. The germs may be carried a long distance with | out losing their viTulence, and may be l conveyed to a farm. ranch or planta- | ton in many ways. As the disease
 Is contagious, one sick or dead animal may infect an entire nerd.
 spite of the fact that the disease 1 has existed at the penitentiary for 1 some time, such care has been taken 1 70 avoid the spread of the contagion i that so far as known there has not
 been a single case reported outside l of the one drove. It is believed that
 the swine at the penitentiary have now
 been immUned, so that there seems tr
 be little fear Of a contagion.
