trade OF the latter place visited Dan

able report, on the strength Of which
the above action was taken.

DEATH OF DIR. PEARSON.

DR.. Leonard Pearson, State Veterin-
arian and dean of the veterinary de-
partment of the University of Penn
sylvania, died in Newfoundland, Mon
day, where he had gone for his health
The sad news of his death will no.
where be received with greater regret
than in Montour county, where he first
diagnosed the foot and mouth disease
among cattle and where he strove so
zealously and with such marked re-
suits to eradicate the dreaded con-
tagion.
DR.. Pearson had his headquarters at
the Montour house and circulated daily
among the farmers Of this vicinity for
many weeks last fall The broad hu-
manity of the man, eXemplified alike
in his sympathy for the brute crea-
tion, his consideration for his fellow
men, his kindness of manner ami his
genial disposition endeared him to all
who had relations with him. He will,
indeed, be very kindly remembered
here.
DR.. Pearson's death was due to heart
disease superinduced by strenuous
activities last year when he was OBJ
liged to labor night and day in stamp
ing out the foot and mouth disease.
He was born in Evansville, Ind, in
1868. He was man of high attain
ments.

STRANGE PHENOMENON

The severe drought this wear seems
to have caused some strange freaks i'll
the vegetable kingdom but nothing
more remarkable has been noted than
Il phenomenon that has occurred on
the south side.
While the dry weather was at its
height two maple trees standing along
the sidewalk just south of the railroad
crossing at Harrison Kase's property
took ON the appearance of approaching
autumn; the leaves changed to "A rus
set hue, then died and fell to the
ground
The general impression was that the
trees were dying and the naked
branches contrasted oddly with the
other trees that were still clothed with
green leaves. Then came the rain of
last week followed by the one this
week, and the effect was not only to
start the grass growing but also to
cause the two trees, supposedly dead,
to bud anew and to brust out in a Sec
ond crop of leaves. They now, present
avery beautiful sight, precisely what
might be expected in the month of
May. ON one of the trees where the
first crop of foliage had not all fallen
the sight is especially interesting, as
the new leaves of bright green and the
dead ones appear in clusters side by
side.
