COMBINE TO STAMP
OUT SCAB DISEASE
During Season of 1909, Bureau of
Animal Industry Will Cooper
ate With Department of Ayr
culture.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 81
| During the grazing season of 1909, the
forest service will again cooperate
with the bureau of animal industry
and the state officials in efforts to
stamp out the disease known as scab
which exists among sheep n a num-
tories. This work has been carried
on by the bureau of animal industry
for several years past. The forest
service has endeavored to assist the
bureau, as we'll as the state authori-
| ties, in enforc ng the law by refusing
to admit any sheep on National
Forest. within the prescribed states
that were not accompanied by GER
tificate of inspection, signed by an m
spector of the bureau of animal in
dustry. to the effect that they were
free from the disease or had been Dip
ped in accordance with the regulations
of the bureau.
In nearly all the western sheep-rals-
} ing states the state boards, charged
with protecting the health of the
| livestock, have been very active IN
suppressing this disease, and between
the bureau of animal industry, the
state authorities and the forest SER
vice, It has practically been wiped
| out of many of the states and greatly
reduced in the others.
During the season of 1909 the work
will be continued in the states OF
Colorado, Utah, Nevada, California,
| and the territories of New Mexico
and Arizona. and it is hoped that at
the close of this present year the
results will be so satisfactory tnat
considerable parts of this area may
| also be pronounced free from the
disease and relieved from quarantine
restrictions. Wherever 1T has peen
found necessary to burn the corrals'
Icounting-chutes and other improve
ments on range which were possibly
infested with this disease, the material
| for new ones has been furn shed 10
the stockmen free of charge by the
| forest service.

MUSICIAN SUPPOSED TO HAVE
BEEN DESPONDENT
NATIVE OF AUSTRIA LEAVES NO
cLEW TO ACT
Former Member of Band at Venice
Commits Suicide In Lodging
He Rented for the
Night

Frank Miller, "a years old, musician
living at the Grand rooming house on
East First street and Santa Fe avenue,
committed suicide by drinking guam
tity of carbolic acid in a room, which
he had rented for the night, at room
ing house conducted by H. fucker,
3411s Central avenue. The lifeless body
was found by the landlord when he en-
tered the room shortly before 9 o'clock.
There was nothing to indicate what
prompted the act. and nothing in the
room or on the body that gave clew
as to the identity of the man. The
body was taken to the undertaking es-
tablishment, where 1t later was identi-
fed as that of Frank Miller by Carl
Jaeschke of 1929 Tennessee street.
Miller played in a band at Venice
several months ago. Later he came
to Los Angeles and is thought to have
played in various orchestras. Recently
it Is thought he had been out OF en-
ployment and Is believed to have taken
the acid while in fit of dependency.
Miller was born in Austria, but had
been in the United States for a num-
ber of years. Little is known concern
ing his relatives.
The coroner probably will sign GER
tificate of suicide without holding an
inquest

ing and knocking down F. w. Penrod
of 1919 Ell Molino street., shortly after
the latter had alighted from a Pico
Heights car, continued on his way at
high rate of speed until oVertaken and
arrested by Patrolman McMurray, who
pressed into service a passing auto and
gave chase, pleaded not guilty in Po-
lice Justice Chambers court yesterday
to a charge of battery and will ap-
pear for trial July 10. Matoon is at
liberty under $100 cash bail.
According to witnesses, Mattoon was
driving his auto at a terrific rate of
speed when he struck Penrod. The lat
ter was hurled twenty feet and landed
in a gutter He was picked up by
Patrolman McMurray, who saw the
accident. The injured man pointed
to the fast disappearing automobile,
and McMurray turned Penrod over to
bystanders to care for, pressed into
service a high power touring car and
overlook the reckless chauffeur after
chase of more than two miles.
That Penrod escaped being seriously.
or prabably fatally injured, is consid-
cred marvellous. He was taken to his
home, where a physician, on examina-
tion, found his injuries consisted of
bruises and decorations.

BOND FORGETTING CASE
SETTLED BY AGREEMENT
Judgment Ente ed for Government in
Bail Jumping Suit Against
Alleged Smuggler

The suit of the United States against
Mania, Wildt and Silva, to collect a
bond forfeited by Frank Mania, alleged
pirate, smuggler and guano thief, when
he was scheduled to appear in the fed
eral court to fight his extradition to
Mexico, probably was settled yesterday
when, by agreement, judgment was en-
tered for the plaintiff for $4,000 and
costs and twenty days stay of eXecu-
ton was granted the defendants.
This case has been pending in the
federal courts for several years, and
the action yesterday probably will close
the matter unless Mania Is located.
Mania failed to appear in court on
the day set for his hearing and careful
search has failed to reveal any clew
as to his whereabouts.
