Stock Dying of Strange Disease.

Wilson Creek, June 1S.-Reports
from the Wheeler country, twenty
five miles south of here, state that
Clanin Brothers and several other
ranchers have lost a number of val
liable mules and horses from a
strange disease. AS yet no one
seems to know what the disease is.
In the first stage of disease the ami
mails appear to have the distemper.
Later they get stiff and suffer much
pain.
Clanin brothers have lost six
mules and other ranchers have had
losses. The mules which Clanln
brothers lost were bought from a
rancher who lives north of Coulee
City. 1t is said they were wintered
on a strawstack, and were not in
good condition when they were taken
to the Clanin ranch.
