GEORGIA'S SENATORS ON JOB
in Debates on Bill to Increase
Pensions $75,OOO.OOO.

ATLANTA.-Senator Bacon and
Senator Smith took prominent part
in the debates on civil war pension
bills, which has just been concluded
in the United States senate.
The house of representatives had
passed bill known as the Sherwood
bill. That bill, which would have
increased the pensions paid to sol
diers of the civil war between seven
ty-five and eighty-six millions of dol
lars annually, had passed the house
with very little resistance in that
body.
The bill came to the senate as the
work of a democratic house, and the
difficulty of defeating it was increas-
ed by that a number of republicans
who were opposed to it hesitated
from party policy to put the senate
in the attitude of defeating a large
increase of pensions to union soldiers
when the democratic house had pass
ed the measure.
In the final debate both Georgia
senators took prominent part. The
senate defeated the Sherwood bill.
which would have increased the pen
sions SIS, 100000, and passed a sub
stitute, which will increase them on
ly about $20,000,0OO.

SERUM CURES HOG CHOLERA
VALUABLE EXPERIMENT AT DIS
TRICT AGRICULTURAL SCHOOL
Tests Conducted by State Veterinari-
and Bahnsen Have Brought Most
Gratifying Results.


Not only those whose hogs are af-
fected with cholera, but farmers gen.
orally of Terrell county will be in
terested in the following account of
experiments made at the District Ag-
ricultural College, near Americas, by
State Veterinarian Bahnsen with a
serum as a remedy for hog cholera.
The Americas Times-Recorder, in
an article telling of the experiments
by DR.. Bahnsen. says the treatment
has been highly beneficial 1t was
early last winter when DR.. Bahnsen
began his initial tests in this particu-
lar, and they were continued through
the winter season without cessation,
with results that have proven emil
nently helpful, according to the re-
ports made by DR.. Bahnsen and the
officials of the agricultural college
who have the work in hand. The
use of the serum has been practically
discontinued now, as the need for it
has disappeared.
The loss of large number of val
liable hogs belonging to the college
caused superintendent Collum to
seek relief from the trouble, and in
casting around for some one to give
aid he sought DR.. .Bahnsen, who took
up the work with great interest, as
the serum which he used was ready
to be tested. He carried it through a
very severe test in treating the large
number of swine that were aVaila-
BILE for treatment at the college, and
the results obtained have been very
successful, according to the veteri-
nary, who has kept an accurate rec
ord with the end in view of judging
the effectiveness of the serum. 1t
was discovered by DR.. Bahnsen that
the serum is very effective in cases
where the hogs have not already
contracted cholera, as it prevents dis
ease. 1t is also effective in mitigat-
ing the severity of the disease, as
was shown in many cases.
While the hogs on the college farm
were suffering from cholera as many
as forty-three were lost This entail
ed a monetary loss, conservatively
estimated, of at least $500. The fact
that the ravages of the disease were
so successfully stayed by the serum
treatment leads to the belief that it
will soon become regular treatment
among the farmers. 1t seems to be
successful when applied as a pre-
ventive or in the early stages of the
disease.

A SUNDAY AFTERNOON ROW
Darktown Offenders Before Mavor
Pro TEN Davidson as Result OF
Melee in Which Pistols Popped.


Before the police court Monday
morning were several disturbers of
the peace. Mayor Pro TEN Davidson
sat on the cases in the absence of
Mayor Bell.
John Zimmerman was fined $40
or sixty days labor on the streets on
the charge of being drunk and dis
orderly and raising a rucus with an
other darkey over money matters.
AS the result of a Sunday after
noon row in the neighborhood of
the Negro Odd Fellows hall the fol-
lowing fines were imposed: Ernest
Gay charged with being drunk and
disorderly and firing a pistol $40 or
sixty days; Son Clark, So or twenty
DAYS on a drunk and disorderly
charge, and lack Cole and Eutha de
Van Sll or twenty days each for the
same offense. Witnesses testified that
these disturbances had been a con-
tlnued thing for some time, and the
oHenders were given to understand
that unless stop was put to such
proceedings more drastic action
would be taken against them. Dur-
ing the melee seven or eight pistol
shots were fired.

ALMOST INSTANTLY KILLED
AGED LADY FELL BACKWARD
FROM A PORCH VERANDA,
Mrs. Julia Kendrick of SmithviIIe
Victim of Unfortunate Accident.
Lived But a Short While.

Mrs. Julia Kendrick, mother of
DR.. w. T. Simpson of Smithville, was
the victim of a most unfortunate ac-
cident Saturday at the home of Mrs.
Goodson, with whom she lived, in
that town.
The accident which caused the
death of Mrs. Kendrick, who was "a
years of age, was most peculiar
one. She was leaning against the
banisters on the back porch of the
residence and they gave way unex-
pectedly, throwing her backward to
the ground upon her head.
Death came almost instantly, and
no hope of her recovery was enter
tanned after the nature of the fall
became known, though a post NOR
tenn examination showed no fracture
OF the skull or specific injury of the
spinal column, and death was attrib-
uted to the severe nervous shock sus-
tanned.
Mrs. Kendricl- was an estimabla
lady and generally loved and esteem
ed. The funeral services were CON
Quoted Sunday aftrnoon in Smith
will.

School Notes

The Demonstration Train
which is sent out by the joint
effort of the Santa Fe and the
University of Arizona was appre-
ciated by the school children.
In the forenoon the intire school
visited the exhibit of products,
farm machinery and live stock.
The cotton, dates and fruits were
of special interest, and the diff
ferent varieties of orchard and
grain pests, the boys" attracted
a crowd. In the afternoon the
grammar and interediate rooms
attended the lectures. All the
schools of the county were urged
to attend and representatives of
the St. Joseph school were here;
several of them spent a part of
the time visiting our school.
There is no school Thursday

Each room welcomed the
friends and patrons Wednesday
