ARE "IOCOED"
BY POISONOUS WEEDS

Folks in search of information about
the meaning Of that common Western
word. loco which one hears and sees
frequently. can obtain mine Of knowl-
edge by the perusal of a bulletin on
the subject of the loco-weed disease
which has just been issued by the De-
partment Of Agriculture.
From this It appears that when per-
son is, IN the vernacular Of the plains,
loco" he is crazy. The word Is of
Spanish origin and has been popularity
applied for a long term Of years 10 a
disease common among horses. cattle.
and sheep in the great plains region OF
the West. The Bureau OF Plant Indus
try has been giving long and careful
inquiry to this disease for the reason
that it has been severe In its effects
on stock and there has been much
argument as to its origin.
The bureau las confined its investiga-
tons TO livestock and has not gone into
the broad subject of the loco" human
being in All its interesting phases. It
has been found that the disease is caus-
ed by two weeds, one the purple loco
weed and the other the white loco weed
The purple weed is the more poisonous,
but It affects horses almost exclusively
because other animals viii not eat it.
The Washington times., 1909-11-13

The white weed is eaten b. cattle and
sheep, as we'll as BY horses, and pro-
duces the disease in all these animals.
Bariumis found IN many loco plants
and its connection with the poisonous
effects IS sin lnder Investigation.
When a horse is loco il becomes
dull, moody. and more or less solitary.

dition and loss Of muscular CO-ordii 4

ton, il lifts its feet unnecessarily high,

In cattle, the symptoms are much the

and trembie and, perhaps. rear and jump
backward when suddenly alarmed A
badly lOcoed steer shows a violently

OF Plant Industry say seize on horses

lent shaking OF the head, lack Of mus
culav coordination, and so on. Such
symptoms are lpopularly ascFibed to

RED WIDOW FACES
HER FINAL ORDEAL
Nerves Shattered, But Nine.
Steinheil Is Still Conf
dent and Defiant.

PARIS, Nov. 13.-Trembling in every
limb. and pallid and hagard, Madame
Marguerite Steinheil took her place in
the assize court today for the final ordeal
OF aer trial for the murder Of her hus-
band and mother
The courageous defiance with which
the Red Widow" began her fight for
life has given way under the inquisi-
torial examination OF French justice,
and she was almost carried into court
yher guards All night in her cell In
the Conciergerie St. Lazar. Madame
Steinheil was attended by a physician,
and today she is In a state Of almost
total collapse.
The little black-clad woman who
fought so successfully the bullying and
browbeating, and the clever cross-ex-
animation OF president Of the court de
Wales. was completely unnerved by the
speech Of Prosecutor General RioIe,
who depicted in a dramatic manner the
details OF the murders of NJ. Steinheil
and Nine. Japy, as the state contends
Madame Steinheil committed the muir
der.
The proceedings were interrupted when
court convened today by the announce
ment that the foreman of the jury was
i'll and would be unable TO go on with
the case After a short discussion, one
OF the two substitute talesmen was
selected. and placed in. the sick mans
stead NJ. Aubln at once began MS sum
mary Tor Madame SteinheL which il
was expected would be very short The
QeLense IS convinced that Madame Stein
nell mas been practically acquitted by

II Is probab bic that the case will 20 to

De returned this evening. II matters
are delayed however, II a. expected that
the court will order q session Sunday to
wind up the case. 1t is believed that the
jury viii decide upon its verdict within
a short time after the case Is given 10
II. A majority vote of the jury is final
in French courts.
A scroll, threatening Madame Stein
he'll with death II she is acquitted, was
found today tacket. TO the door of the
Steinheil home in the Impasse Ronsin,
where the murders were committed The
authorities are searching for the persons
who delivered the threat, but Il Is gen
orally thought 10 be the work OF a
crank.
Friends OF Madame Steinheii made all
preparations today for taking care Of
the accused woman tonight, as they are
convinced that she has passed her last
night in prison. Her belongings We're
removed from her cell at St. Lazar
Madame Steinheil said when she reached
the court room today that she was at
the end Of her strength, but that she
was confident that she would be &c
quilted.
