But Trouble With Imported
Cattle From Florida.

Natchez, Miss, May 2.--Approxi
mately 100 OF the 900 cattle brough
ITO Natchez several days ago to re
stock Adams county farms have died
since the work OF Dipping them has
been in progress under the super.
vision OF the plant of the Mississippi
Packing Company.
II is explained that the deaths have
resulted both from internal poison
ing and from toxic conditions re-
sulting from the caking OF the dip
ping mixture on the animals hides,
which closes the pores and causes a
fatal disease.
The internal poisoning is said to
result from the habit Of the animals
Of grazing upon the grass upon which
The mixture has drlpped from their

TO our correspondence it will be seen
that be made fine impression. Mr..
Rufiin stated to the Editor OF this
paper that he was delighted with that
fine section and people. and most es-
pecially with the bright young girls
and boys. He says there are pro-
gresive and splendid farmers around
Hebron who have nice homes and
they are noted for their hospitality
and other ennobling traits. In fact,
70 hear our friend Ruffin talk of Heb

spots of the South. Mr.. Ruhin is
not only one of our livest and most
popular merchants, but he is a
Christian gentleman, ever striving
for the upbuilding and moral ad-
vaneenent Of his people. Such men
are OF inestimable value to any com

by so doing they are enabled to

Trolly Line Kills Cow.

The first bouvine mortality on the
trolly line occurred last Friday, when
the car killed a COW belonging to Mr..
Jesse Bush. No damage except to
the COW, as the moterman had his car
under complete control. Some think
the animal committed suicide TO es-
cape being dipped, as it jumped on
the track in front Of the car, and be-
fore the brakes could be put on the
killing took place. We do not know
the pedigree of that COW, but If she
is not a thoroughbred animal it is the
first common critter on record killed
by railroad.

Puni shing Liquor-Sellers.

ms supreme Court OF the United
States recently held that the saloon
sglliag 70 drunkard can be held
liable for the act This decision does
aos apply to the saloonist selling to
a man who occasionally imbibes a
drop too much. It does apply how
ever, TO the man who because of his
bihulous habits has earned the title
of drunkard.
This is most righteous decision
and will do much toward the indis-
criminate sale of liquor by licensed
dealers, So far as Ellisville is con-
eerned, our town has not even a
blind tiger, unless it is some niger
with a quart or few bottles OF beer.
