ktigued and hungry, sat down on the
a1or. The daughter says they were too
weak to make a move for food. A. the

small chances Of living, but the dsugh-
ter, who is powerful and corpulent,
may survive the three.days fast, Mrs.

ALL TO DIE.

Doomed to death are all the domestic
animals, except the borses and mules,
or the farm Of Mr.. Il. NJ. Kueller, near
Lineboro, Carroll county, Nd, because
the foot aud mouth dist ase, or infectious
aptha, has broken out among herd of
cattle on that place. The wholesale
killing will take place today, the object
being to stamp out the ualady, which
has made 1t, first appearance in Mary
land on the Carroll county farm. In
Guided 10 the slaughter will be: Twenty
two cows and steers, fiity-one pigs, b.
tween 70 and so hens and BOOSTERS, six
pigeons. The family cat is even doomed.
The deg would meet the same dire fac,
II there was one. Chickens and pigeons
tbstwere caught yesterday had their heads
chopped of. They we're doomed 10 die
not because they IRE liable to contract
the disease, but because they we're its
apt carriers, thus causing IFS spread. 1t
will be a sad Thanksgiving day Oh the
Kneller farm.
