the leadership in this league. Those two
victories were made possible by the
GOOD bowling Of Streiter. Stanley. and
W. Ia Smith. The former, however.
was the star Of the night. his initial
effort OF the evening being 12I, which
was high game. Capt Hummerickhouse,
OF the winners. deserves a great deal
of credit for the good showing of his
team. He is always on hand with five
good men, and when the occasion de-

showing.

Disease in Warren.
Several head of hogs and cattle in
Warren county are to be killed in the
near future as the result of the finding
of a number of cases of foot and
mouth disease. The county has been
put under a strict quarantine so that
stock may be neither shipped out nor
received until every trace of the dread
hoof and mouth disease has been
wiped out and the animals and feed
lots proven to be in the very best of
condition. The herds of infected
stock on the Morris place west of Lit
tie York have been killed. and the
work of cleaning up the feed lots there
is under way.
The inspection at the home of Sam
Francis southwest of Monmouth, and
at the farm of c. w. Tinkham and
son of KirkwoOd, disclosed the fact
that big herds of hogs there had be-
come infected and a few cattle. These
have been appraised and will be killed
within the next few days At the
Francis place the inspectors found a
herd of 75 hogs and seven head of
cattle which are slated for slaughter,
while at Tinkham's there are 40 hogs
and three cattle to be killed. At VIII
liam Gillard's place, seven miles north
west Of Monmouth the inspectors or
dered quarantine on rs hogs and
twenty head of cattle.
Killing Cattle.
Farmers in Henry county are also
killing stock on account of the dis
ease. c. W. and f. Nelson, wealthy
men living four and one-half miles
south of Cambridge. have slaughtered
all of their cattle and hogs in order to
prevent the spread of the malady.

Food Inspector May Be Woman
A Davenport woman is said to be a
candidate for the position of city food
inspector, and has already placed sew
eral irons in the fire with a view to
obtaining the place. Mayor Mueller
has been approached by parties inter
ested in the woman candidate and his
attention has been called to the fact
that a woman would be the logical one
to keep grocery stores and other es-
adjustments in "spick-span" order.
She would be a relentless foe to dirt
and a staunch supporter of cleanli-
ness, it is claimed. The present in
cumbent, William Kniphals, is said to
be seeking re-appointment. Applica-
tions for city "plums" are still pouring
in, according to Mayor Mueller. John
