Moroccan nlyl Renewed.

Berlin, Oct. GA group of French
Nnen hoisted a French flag over the
>fprt at Agadir, Morocco, threatening
Grave international complications. It
rs announced that France had pro-
ktlaimed a protectorate and that a
French cruiser was en- route for Aga
dir. The French government imme-
Idiately disavowed the action and, as
it is not represented at Agadir, H.
'structed the French consul at Moga-
dor to ask the Moroccan authorities
to take measures to remove the flag
and end the incident.
According to the latest advices the
Frenchmen were defying the local
Caliph of Agadir, who on his own
responsibility, had ordered the
French colors lowered, but it is ex-
pected that the Frenchmen will yield
when they learn that their govern
ment has disavowed their act.

Another Well Known Veterinary Con.
dennis The Buzzard,

DR.. B. A. Tabor of Jennings, one
of the we'll known veterinaries OF THIS
section of the state, was in Welsh o
few hours Monday morning, coming
over on professional business. Whlle
here a representative of the JOURNAL,
asked the doctor what he thought
about the so-claimed advantages Oh
the buxzard to the country at large.
In his emphatic way he said. u
think the buzzard is curse to the
country. For the past five years
have been convinced that the buzzard
is one of the most potent causes for
the spread of contagious diseases
among cattle, and other stock. Some
people claim that the buzzard wont
eat the carcass of an animal that dies
Of Charlton. According to the doctors
view that is all folly. In proof OF
this assertion he showed scar on his
arm that resulted from Charlton con-
tracted while dissecting an animal
that had died of the desease, and
said he, ''to my certain knowledge the
= buzzards toasted on that carcass" he
made the further statement, that 1oi
his part, if he was farmer and had
;, stock on his place, he would Kill every
. buzzard that came in his way.
This is but another confirmation 0
fine views that the JOURNAL has beel
advocating for several years past
. and which we shall continue to adVo
- cate until better understanding is al
rived at, in regard to this great pes
