Death OF Alfred Smith.

ID. 5. Richmond received d tel
egram Tuesday from Colonel Mil
Ter, commandment OF the Rocky
Mountain Sanitarium at Hot
Springs. s. D., announcing the
death of Alfred Smith, an old SOL
dier, who has been a familiar
character in Saratoga for many
years. Fatty" as his friends call
ed him, has been suffering from
rupture and other diseases incurr-
ed ill the war, but bore up bravely
never complaining. He grew So
much worse two months ago that
his friends made up a purse and,
placing him in charge of Samuel
Smith, another old soldier, sent
him to the government sanitar-
ium mentioned above. The last
reports from him were to the eff
feet that he was doing nicely and
might recover. The funeral took
place yesterday ana the body
was inferred in the Government
cemetery at Hot Springs.
Fatty was a universal favorite
wherever he went. Always of Il
jolly, kindly disposition, he made
light of his ailments, though sui
sering intensely at times. He was
never known to complain. lie
was full of jokes and a dry wit
that made him welcome at every
mans door. He has always paid
his debts and has never asked any
man for help. Yet he was most
generous when aid was in demand.
His friends here will sincerely
mourn his loss, for they know that
they will never look upon a man
with a largerkinder heart than his.
Brave old Comrade! Good bye.

Return from Elk Mountain.

5. Il. Phelps and j. d. Tillou
returned Thursday from a two
weeks trip to Elk Mountain. They
spent the t me while gone making
preparations to do a large amount
of development work this season
on the Elk Mountain Mining and
Milling Company. They have a
good supply of fuel on hand and
expect to get busy in a short time.
Everything indicates that good
progress will be made this season
in the Elk Mountain district. The
Elkhorn and Elkhart mines are at
the present time working a con-
siderable force of men. Last week
nine eastern Investors made a trip
to the Elkhorn mine and were
well pleased with the property.
They found everything in better
shape than had been represented
by the officers of that company.
Ray Campbell, secretary of the
company, has been at the mine
several weeks and is supervising

W. B. Hugus Dead

A telegram, addressed to Ed
ward f. Dollar, arrived at 1890
Tuesday night, from Santa Cruz,
Calf, announcing the death at IL
O'Clock, a m. of w. b Hugus.
Mr.. Hugus had been in rather
poor health for some months and
his son w. B. Hugus, Of this
place, was called home. 1t is pre-
sumed that the interment will
take place at Santa Cruz
Wilbur b. Hugus was one of
the old time residents of this
country. He was on the from
tier many years when he came to
Saratoga in 1879 and engaged in
the ranch business. He own
ed the land which Saratoga now
stands on, having entered it un-
der the presumption and home
stead acts. He and Ex-Governor
Chatterton we're in partnership
when they plotted two blocks of
lots on the east side of the river
as Saratoga In a few years af-
terward they added what is known
as "Hugus & Chatterton's First
Addition to the town of Sarato-
ga, where nearly all Of the huei-
less houses and many of the res
licences now stand. In 1899 he
sold his interest in the store of
". B. Hngus & Co. and after
settling up his business moved his
family to Santa Cruz, Calf. where
they now reside. Deceased owns
a large amount of property here
in the town of Saratoga.
Many years of the deceased
were spent on the frontier and
few old timers had passed thru
more thrilling events, or been the
participant in more stirring times
than ne. He was an intimate
friend of General Crook and was
with him on many of his Indian
campaigns, in Colorado, New
Mexico, Utah and Arizona.
He also enjoyed a large and in
fuential acquaintance with many
other prominent military men and
early pioneers in the early days of
of the west and was their adviser
and stanch friend thru all the pre-
carious times that marked that
period of our civilization. He
left his impress upon the times
and men of the day and it will be
many years before the name of of
w. B. Hugus is blotted out of the
minds of men.
Deceased left a wife and six
children to grieve over his loss.
Wilbur B., the eldest, named for
his father, just passed his major
ity, Louise, Margaret, Gay, Eliza
beth and Nellie. To them their
many friends here in Sarato ga,
as elsewhere, send sincere sympa-
thy and coincidence.
Deceased was born Sept. 9th
1871 and would have been IS years
of age had he lived until his next
birthday.

Loco Diseases.

The so-called loco disease Of
horses, sheep and cattle has been
for many years a source of serious
loss to stockmen in the West, who
have generally attributed it to GER
tain weeds eaten by the stock,
investigations by the United
States Department of Agriculture
have not only confirmed the sup
position as to the poisonous effect
of these plants, but have resulted
in the discovery and Identification
of barium as a definite poisonous
element in them. Feeding exper-
iments establishing the fact that
the plants are responsible for the
disease were carried on under field
and corral conditions by DR.. G.
Dwight Marsh, while the discov-
cry of barium was made in the
labratory by DR.. A. G. Crawford.
The loco weeds are a class of
leguminous plants of which the
principal ones are the purple loco
weed (Astragalus mollissimus)
and the rattle-weed (Aragallus
lamberti). One or both of these
prevail to a greater or less extent
over an area including all or
parts of Montana, Wyoming,
North Dakota, South Dakota,
Minnesota, Nebraska. Kansas, Col
orado, Utah, Arizona, New Mex
leo, Texas, and Oklahoma
The Characteristic symptoms
of the disease are a slow stagger-
ing gait, rough coat, staring vac
ant look, and emanciation, The
affected animals have hallucina-
tions, can not be led or backed,
show more or less lack of muscular
coordination, gradually lose flesh
and die. The affection comes on
in a slow and cumulative manner,
and there is no possibility of AMI
mails becoming immune by con-
t%inually eating the plants.
The proverb can ounce of pre-
vention is worth a pound of cure"
applies to this disorder. Although
good results can often be obtained
by the treatment of locoed ami
mails, the most effective way of
dealing with the trouble is to keep
animals from eating the loco
plants. Wherever practical the
weeds should be exterminated
from the range or pasture, and the
best way of doing this is sim ply
to cut them out. This method,
however, while often practicable
on land under private control, can
not very well be applied to
the public range. In many
cases much can be accomplished
by keeping animals away from
loco covered ranges during the
time when feed is short, as they
are much more likely to contract
the habit at such a time, 1t may
sometimes be profitable to feed
them for a short time, in order
that the decorating habit may
not be formed.
After animals have become af-
fected the first essential in their
treatment is to place them where
they can not eat the loco weeds.
They should be given plenty of
nutritious feed, and so far as prac-
ticable feed with laxative proper
ties, such as green alfalfa. Some
may recover under this treatment
without recourse to medicine.
With most animals, however, re-
covery is FASTENED by medicinal
treatment.
AS a result of its experiments
the Department of Agriculture
suggests the following treatment:
For cattle, strychnin in doses of
three-twentieths to four-twenti-
eths of a grain daily, administered
hypodermically. For horses, Fow-

More Smallpox Found.

Because of the discovery of two adj
ditional cases of smallpox Monday at
the House of Correction, Governor
Crothers said he thought it would be
well if the police magistrates and the
judges of the Criminal Courts would
refrain from committing prisoners to
the institution until the disease and the
danger can be eradicated. DR.. Marshall
l.. Price. Secretary of the State Board
of Health, called on the Governor and
informed him that two more cases had
been discovered in the broom room of the
institution. The men had been placed
in the pest house, and DIR. Price ex-
tended the quarantine already upon the
institution so as to prohibit the shipping
from there of any brooms until further
orders.

Free Art Exhibit At The
Hiqh School.

Interest in art should be inculcated in
the minds of the children in our schools
at an early age, and it is necessary, for
this reason, to have works of art in the
school building. The children would
then become familiar with the master
works of art of all ages and absorb I'M
consciously what is true and good and
beautiful.
There will open at the Snow Hill High
School on April 18th, continuing for
three days. perhaps the most notable
art exhibit of its size ever given in our
vicinity. 1t will attract every parent
and child and all friends of the school
during the three days of the week, and
will tax the capacity of our school
rooms.
The event will not only be notable
one among school entertainments but
will be revelation of the exceeding
beauty and distinction of good pictures
in the school rooms, for the High School
has been able to secure 200 examples of
the best school subjects in large repro
auctions attractively arranged and cata-
logued. to the end that every parent,
child and friend of the High School may
see and appreciate, now, the advan-
tages to be derived from beautiful pic
lures in our school rooms.
In connection with this special ex-
hibition of pictures the entire Snow Hill
High School wants everybody to attend
this exhibit. Each friend can assist by
making a contribution of whatever
amount the donor may desire to be ap-
piled to the picture fund. Local or
CARNATIONS may assist by making q
donation of pictures of their selection.
Admission 10 cents and Is cents. Re-
freshments will be served
