Poultry @. X. In
Santa Cruz, Claim


Enoch Crews of Seabright, near
Santa Cruz, has sent the following
communication 10 the Press and re.
quests that it he given publicity.
There is an impression in your
county that Santa Cruz poultry is
infected with foot and mouth dis
ease. Many letters have been re-
ceived from Imperial County by
iatchcrs indicating that this belief
is common.
"In justice to the poultrymen of
this county | am asking the Press
to give this letter publicity.
''There has not been, a ease of
infection reported within 100 miles
of this locality; not a cleaner coun-
ty in California than Santa Cruz.
All highways are carefully guarded
to prevent contamination from
outside sources, slaughter houses in
spected daily by government depu-
ties and national state and county
officers are cooperating to stamp
out the disease in the San Francis

Well! We'll! Saw, look here!'
Uncle Wiggily laughed, twinkled
his pink nose and went on digging
his garden and making it smooth.
The sun was shining bright and
warm, and the earth was smelling
sweet with the perfume of spring
when, all of sudden, along came
Sammie Littletail, the, rabbit boy.
"Oh, what It fine garden you IRE
making, Uncle Wiggily" cried Sam
hie. "And what grand place for
me to hide Sister Susie's ball!'
And before Mr.. Longears could stop
him, Sammie had dug Il deep hole
in the fine, smooth garden bed, in
to the hole he dropped Il rubber
ball.
"There now, Susie can t find her
ball, and she can't take it to school

"Mother told me to- said Sam

him by the ears and gentle held
him fast. "Susie takes her ball to

said Uncle Wiggily kindly. 81

things are hidden in my garden
there will be no room for seeds.
And just then out from behind
u bush sprang the Bob Cat. The
Bob Cat was going to catch Uncle
Wiggily. But the bunny gentleman
remembered Johnnie's nut, and
quickly digging it up from where
the squirrel had hidden it, Uncle
Wiggily threw the nut at the Bob
Cat, hitting him on the nose.
"Wow! Ouch!" howled the Bob
Cat. Then Uncle Wiggily dug up
Peetie' s bone and with that he hit
the Bob Cat on the nose again.
Smouch!" howled the Bob Cat.
Then Sammie dug up Susie's ball
and hit the Bob Cat on his nose
for the third time! "Oh, / IN going
to run away!" meowed the Bob
Cat, and away he ran.
"Now l can finish making my
garden" said the bunny gentle
man, and he did, planting all his
seeds while Sammie ran on to school.
And after school Johnnie found
his nut on the steps with Peetie s
bone and Susie's ball, where the
bunny gentleman had put them af-
ter the Bob Cat went away.

NEW YORK, April 28-Past the
sidewalks of New York, where stood
with bowed heads and tear dimmed
eyes thousands he had befriended,
The funeral cortege of Charles r.
Murphy carried the remains of the
dead Tammany leader to their last
resting place today.
Up from the teeming East Side,
where the clatter and roar of traffic
was stilled for an instMnt as the
smoothly rolling black limousines
went by, to the cold broad sweep
of Fifth avenue and the lofty
heights of st. Patrick 8 cathedral,
the solemn procession moved, and in
the procession and On the side
walks Of both sections were men
and women of all walks of life who
owed much to 'Charley' Murphy
and tearfully acknowledged that
gratitude today.
Murphy had been a prince in poll
tics, indeed; power he frosted from
the rich, jobs he gave to the poor.
Probably no other individual ever
provided personally so many jobs
and thus so many friends.
Undemonstrative and aloof in
life, Murphy would permit effusive-
ness from no one; after his death
the pent up gratitude welled forth.
The voice of the city was hushed ;
so many men and women officials
and employees attended the funeral
that there was virtual cessation of
city business. 1t was probably the
most extraordinary demonstration
ever accorded o private citizen.
In the procession rode the JUS
tees of the supreme court in a body,
aldermen, members of the boards of
estimate, the heads and staffs OF
the district attorneys office. There
was Governor Gap Smith and his

ernmcnt regulations will in no way
halt elections, conventions. amuse-
ments or other public gatherings in
the cities and towns of California
while skilled scientific men are
carrying ont the fight to eradicate
the fot and mouth disease in live
stock.
DR.. U. G. Houck, director of the
consolidated federal and state forces
made this announcement today in
response to numerous inquiries sub
mitted through the office of G. II.
IIecke, director of the California
Department OF Agriculture. DR..
IIouck said:
1T may be stated in n general
way that in communities where the
disease exists there should be as
little movement of animals and peo-
pie as possible. Gatherings in in
fected districts such as picnics, flow
or festivals, Farm Bureau meetings,
Chautauqua programs, dances and
like functions should be discourag-
cd.
"In previous outbreaks where the
disease was near churches and school
houses in the rural districts is was
thought advisable to close those
churches or schools ten days or two
weeks after the affected and expos
ed animals had been destroyed and
the infected premises cleaned and
disinfected.
"There seems to be very little, if
any, danger from the usual gath
erings in cities and larger towns
such as conventions, baseball games,
notion picture shows and like amuse
ments, meetings of organizations, as
these gatherings are attended al
most entirely by people from the
cities and towns.
"'People on infected premises
are not permitted to leave until
the premises are thoroughly cleans
ed and disinfected.

where Polly, rather hard boiled
young parrot of 26 summers, is

and then gave the reporter nice
little lecture on the proper things
to say to parrot.
"Dn't pull that silly gag that

admonishcd, punctuating her re-
marks with something that sounded
suspiciously like it might have come
from the lips of an old sea pirate.
A little later Polly cooled off
enough to say that her home is at
Tuscon, Arizona, and that she came
with G. G. Myrick and family in
their car as far as Ell Centre early
this week.
"It's an outrage, that IS what it
is,' says Poll. Here 1 am, a re-
spectacle woman Of mature judg-
ment, stuck here III a window with
no chance of getting home to Ari-
zona for nobody knows how long.
AS if l had anything to do with q
lot of cows getting sick. The
reporter was discreet and said moth
ing. Poll stopped talking, too, and
seemed to be sulking over her
troubles, so the interview was OBJ
viously over.
Walter S. Jardine, of the express
company said that it was likely
that the bird would be kept for
some time, since Mr.. Myrick has
gone on to Oregon, where he will
remain for severah months. MF
Jardine said that the express com
pany is holding q dog, also, because
