Stock Owners Warned Against I'm.
posters.

Reports are now beginning to come
in to the department from several of
the States quarantined for The foot
and-mouth disease that persons who
have no connection whatever with the
are attempting to pass
themselves off as Federal Inspectors.
There are several possible motives that
might account for the existence of
these imposters. In the outbreak of
1908 there were instances of men who
obtained money from credulous vic
Tins who believed that in this way
they would escape the inconvenience
of quarantine and disinfection. This
is, of course, a very simple form OF
extortion. Another motive may be
the sale of some qnack remedy for the
disease.
Stock owners can protect themselves
very easily against this fraud, for there
is no specific remedy for the foot-and.
mouth disease. Since the germ has
never been isolated, it has never beer
possible as yet to find any serum that
would act either as cure or prevent
i've, and the public may be quite Ger
tain that anyone who says that he is
an employee of the Department Of
Agriculture, and at the same time at
tempt to sell or even recommend any
thing Of the sort, is simply an I'M
poster. For this reason stock owners
are warned not 70 allow strangers to
visit their stock or attempt any dem
orstrations of So called cures by in
jections or otherwise.
There is, moreover, very great dan
ger that such people might dissent
nate the disease. 1t is well-known
fact that the germs can be carried on
clothing. In infected territory, there
fore, it is quite possible that a man
who has come in contact with stricken
animals may bring the disease to a
perfectly healthy herd. This also &C
counts for much of the spread of hog
cholera.
The department therefore recon-
mends all farmers to keep their an
imals from contact with all save those
who have definite business with them.

Death Of An Old Lady.

Last Wednesday afternoon, about
2:3O o'clock, Mrs. Patsy Finn, who
was the wife of Mr.. Coleman Finn,
died in the Tut Addition, this town,
after an illness of several weeks. She
was eighty-two years old, and was
born and reared on Adams creek, in
the lower edge of Adair county. She
was daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
Price, who died many years ago. Mrs.
Finn Was brought up under religious iD-
fuences and was ready when the sum-
mons came. She Is survived by her
husband and several children. She
leaves one living brother to our
knowledge, Mr.. John Price, of Bow
ling Green, another brother, Mr.. Peter
Price, who went west years ago, may
be living. Her surviving husband is
nearly ninety years old, and is in very
feeble health.
The remains of Mrs. Finn were con
veyed to Pleasant Ridge Church, il
the Keltner country, and after reli
gious services were inferred, in TIT
presence of many friends.

After trial of nine days, held at
g B. Pendleton, who
shot and killid Alb Franklin, the depu-
ty Sheriff of Metcalfe county, in Ed
she year ago, was acquitted.
There were nine speeches in the case,
five for the defense and four for the
State. Judge Rollin Hurt, of this
place, was among the attorneys who
represented the defense. 1t was a
hard fought Battle and great deal of
interest was manifested by both sides.
The verdict was surprise to the PEG
pie in this section, as it was generally
believed that Pendleton would be con.
victed. Evidently the defense made
out a much stronger case than was
known to the public.
Pendleten returned to his home in
Metcalfe county.

ILLINOIS SUFFRAGE
ACT is UNDER FIRE

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Jan. 16.-The
constltutionality of the woman suffrage
act passed by the last Illinois legi sla.
ture was attacked today in brief filed
in the state supreme court by counsel
for William j. Schown of Chicago, who
brought suit to restrain the Cook coun-
ty board of election commissioners from
ircurring expense in providing ballot
boxes for the women TO vote at the pri~
mary election next month.
The bill was dismissed from the
Cook county superior court for want of
equity and the brief today was on ap-
peal from that decision.
Among other points raised the phrase
of the suffrage law permitting women
to vote ''upon all questions OF PROPOSE
tions submitted to vote of the elect.
ors, was attacked as violating the pro-
visions of the constitution.
Owing to delays in completing records
for an appeal and for other reasons it
was said today that decision on the
constitutionality Of the suffrage law
cannot be had of the supreme court of
the state before the June term.
Thus the women Will participate in
the spring primaries and elections with
out an ultimate decision as to their le,
gal right to DO so.
