"A number hogs have died recently
in Snow Hill, of the disease with which
they have been afflicted having claimed
so many victims as to assume the pro-

alarm among all owners of swine. A
great many persons. whose hogs were
not diseased, have butchered them this
week, preferring to chance saving the
meat and lard to running the risk of
their dying of the ravages of the dis
ease. Some took the precaution to
butcher at night, and several pens were
emptied and night made hideous by the
saueal of the porkers. DIR. William B.

There Is record that the money

In Augsburg In 1885 In the next year
the heirs were informed that 100000
had been deposited for them In an
Augsburg bank. The heirs of ieath-
er dealer. Van Grat2, received small
payments on account. and even oh.
taining $4,000 about 1891 In 1858
an Augsburg banker by the name Of
Won Halde confessed on his death he'd
that the inheritances had been de-
posted In his bank. and that by
means Of them he had made his own
fortune.
Since then every effort has been
made to trace the requests through

never appeared. Recently the Dres-
