For the past two weeks ho has beer
seriously , but It was not thought dangerously
ill. Two weeks ago last Monday ho nccom
panled the members of the city council ns t
committee of the whole to look over the sltt
of the proposed new lovco north of the city ,
It was a chilly , cold day , and all of the alder
men returned from the excursion in tin
patrol waeon thoroughly numbed. Mr. Lacy
was particularly distressed by the trip , and
when the council mot In tbo evening ho was
still suffering from the exposure. Ho re
mained , however , until the meeting was out
nearly midnight , and went homo feeling very
badly. He continued to grow worse during
the next day , and the next evening was compelled
polled to take to his bed , from which IK
never arose. On tlio following
"Wednesday brain fovcr had developed
oped , nnd Urs. Lacy and GSrcci
were summoned. Medical skill nnd the ten
derest care proved Ineffectual. The blow
could not bo averted nnd ho gradually sank
until death released him from his pain
There were many times durlntj his sickness
when his symptoms seomad to indicator
favorable turn of the disease , and the roporl
was circulated that ho was rapidly recover
Ing. Ills true condition , however , seemed tc
have been kept from tlio public.
From the llrst attack ho was seized will
dellrum , and during all of his ravings ho wa :
going over the levee slto , nnd enduring tin
rigors of the cold trip. Ho talked of noth
ing else. Jt was lovco , lovco , all the tlmo a :
ho inonncO and tossed on his couch. ' Th
phantasies of his brain assumed the fortno
myriad menacing calamities to the city whlcl
lie was , trying to avert by constructing1 tin
levee. His agonized moanlngs were pltifu
in the extreme. There was no recognition o
the heartbroken friends who surrounded him
only the phantoms of a publio danger , and a :
his life ebbed uwnv anil the Html moment !
cnmo lust night the last hal
syllabled word that died on hi :
Hns referred to the public work In which , hi
sacrlfied his life.
Yesterday afternoon Dr. Macrae was callei

SUUTUHUANKAN PIGMIES.
Singular Discovery or Iiiitlo Folks
Wlio Dwell in a Cave.
Stanley and Du Chnlllu have rivals ,
says a New York special to the San
Francisco Examiner. According to n
dispatch from Indianapolis , some boys
have discovered a cave in Crawford
county , Ind. , und which is Inhabited by
a race of humans averaging less limn
three foot in height and aboul forty
pounds in weight.
Of course the boys were laughed nt
when they told their story. Then they
returned to the civvo , and , after convinc
ing thomsolvbs that they were not
dreaming , came back and excited the
curiosity of hundreds of citizens by re
iterating their story. A largo expedi
tion hns been organized to visit the cave.
Tlio underground cave-dwellers np-
pear , according to dnscriptions by the
boys , to bo the lowest typo of humanity.
They run upon all fours when they tire
of the erect position. They exhibited
extreme fear of the intruders and clambered
bored with agility over heaps of stones
in their frantic flight.
Not a vestige of clothing covered
them , and the boys say they noticed no
signs of hirsuteness or other physical
marks of the low orders of the animal
kingdom , The form is not well devel
oped , and males are little if any superior
to the females. Their food can bo noth
ing except fish from the streams which
abound in thocavo , for long before their
place of abode is reached every vestige
disappears of the animals which haunt
the caves or Book refugetherein. .
"When the youthful explorers were ob
served a baby-like chatter arose , which ,
awakening the echoes of the ciivo , was-
almost deafening1. Efforts will bo made

It is wrong to suppose that tlio whole

Certain districts are overcrowded , par

MEASURES FOR ITS PREVENTION ,
Bulky Fond for Poultry In Winter
Ikying UpSceil Corn A Ho mark.-
able 1'utnto Crop IMowlnit
In the Full.
In n bulletin Issued by Dr. Kennedy ,
secretary ol the Iowa stiito board of
health , is-glvon the following valuable
preventive measures of hog cholera :
1. As soon us the herd has become in
jected , tho'lii-althy animals should bo
Immediately retnovctl from the sick BO
far away there will bo no danger from
Infection by contact , drainage of the
eoilwater or gusts of wind. They should
bo given ample space , BO that If there
are dlboascd animals among them It will
not Bjiread so rapidly as when they are
crowded. The bodies of those removed
may bo disinfected by pouring over thorn
a 2 per cent solution of carbolic acid , or
two and one-half ounces of ncitl lo one
gallon of water , and also driving them
through the solution to disinfect their
feet.
2. Destroy all diseased animals. As
there is no reliable means of treatment
or cure , destruction is the simplest and
most economical in the end. A single
diseased animal will soon infect a herd.
51 Kaeli dead body bhould bo buried bo
deep no animal can got ut it. It should
bo covered with a layer of slacked limo
several inches thick. It burned euro
should bo taken that parts not burned
are buried as above. The sale and cur
rying of such dead bodies to rendering
establishments is prohibited by law , and
is a most prolific means of spreading the
disease.
4. There should bo frequent and thor
ough disinfection of the promises , and
cleanliness mainlined. Slaked limo is a
good disinfectant for hog cholera , using
one pound of limo to a gallon of water.
It may bo used us a whitewash on tlio
fences and pens , nnd spread over the soil
in a thin layer and thrown Into pools ,
hog washes , or wherever tlio water stag
nates. A more ellicient disinfectant is
crude carbolic acid , costing about 81 per
gallon , and an equal quantity of sulphur
ic acid. The two acids should bo care
fully mixed in a glass jar or bottle and
poured slowly into water in a wooden
pail , iri proportion of two ounces of the
acid mixture to ono gallon of water.
This should bo used with a broom or
brush upon woodwork , fences , pens ,
floors , tools , etc. , and also dashed over
the soil. For shoes and bootsbrush them
with a mixture of one-fourth ounce of
carbolic acid and one-half gallon of wa
ter. Palls after using should bo rinsed
with water to prevent the acid from de
stroying the iron hoops.
5. All manure from sick hogs should
bo disinfected before removal.
0. After a disinfection of premises , no
hogs Bhould bo allowed thereon for at
least four months Where a few ani
mals are left that have been ox posed
no fresh animals should bo added to
thorn for six months. If it is necessary
to put fresh animals whore the disease
has been , as in stockyards , etc. , then all
prior infected animals should bn killed
and the promises previously disinfected ,
as stated.
7. Sick hogs should not bo permitted
to stray into out-of-the-way maces , un
der buildings and into fence corners or
under straw stacks , thus scattering the
disease , BO as to make infection impossi
ble. They should bo penned or inclosed
in u yard whore proper attention can bo
given them , and other hogs kept from
them.
8. Whore no disinfection is had hogs
should not bo admitted on premises
whore the disease has prevailed for ono
year. It is believed tnat the cholera
germs will lose their vitality entirely in
ono year.
9. All domestic animals , especially
sheep , that have been in contact with
diseased hogs > should bo enclosed away
from all other animals and closely
watched.
10. No person from a farm or promises
whore hog cholera does exist , or has ex
isted , should bo permitted to como on
premises whore the dlaeubo docs not ox-
ibt , unless previous disinfection is had of
his boots and clothing.
11. All birds , wild or tame , should bo
excluded from infected premises ,
After all this trouble , there still re
mains the danger of a fresh introduction
of the disease. It is dillicult for ono
farmer to protect himself when con
stantly menaced by his neighbors. Still ,
it is much easier to keep it away than to
eradicate it It is best , therefore , in
these regions whore the disease is al
ways more or less present , to keep the
hogs in more limited space and enclo
sures of such form and size that dis
infection may bo had with less labor and
more definite results.
It is confidently bolleved if these
rules bo faithfully observed wherever
the disease exists , hog cholera can bo
permanently eradicated from the stato.
Though winter freezing will not de
stroy the gonnsthere is good reason to
believe tlioy will not survive more than
a year in any soil. But it is carried and
distributed , throughout the year , from
places whore cases have occurred , and
thus the virus is kept alive. Ilonco the
necessity for qxtcnsivo concerted action
among farmers.
Hog cholera germs have never been
found iu soil or water independent of the
diboaso. Neither have tlioy over boon
found except in the body or discharges
of diseased hogs , and from these the in
fection spreads.
llnllcy Food for 1'onltry.
It is only recently that clever hay has
been found to bo the cheapest and best
winter food for laying lions , and that by
ithuso the great uilHculty of procuring
green lootl is ovorcnmo. says the West
ern Stockman and Cultivator. In fact ,
the essontlal want of the hens in winter
is not so much that of green food us of
bulky food of a nltrogunous character.
For many years the writers and breeders
have made n specialty of recommending
all kinds of grains for poultry , the only
variation being that at curtain times
Bomo of it was to bo whole grains , and at
other times boftfood was to bo given. It
aid not occur to tliom the effects of n
long'pontlmiod dlol of t > tti\n \ was ns in
jurious to fowls as tolittle , nnd Hint tha
concoiitralcd grain food gave the best
refuilts when diluted ( if wo may use the
expression ) with nome kind of bulky nm-
torial , which not only promoted diges
tion , but also largely assisted in supply
ing the elements necessary for the albiu
men of the ogps , which was lacking in
the carbonaceous ' food of the grains.
To prepare it'as food for hona , clover
hny should bo cut line with a feed cutter
mul scolded. The scolding is done by
pouring boiling water over it , in a tub ,
at night , throwing a covering on it and
allowing It to remain until morning. In
tlio morning , before feeding , add , for
every twenty hens , ono pound of ground
grain mixture. Tills grain mixture maybe
bo prepared by mixing twenty-live
pounds of ground corn ami oats " ( they are
usually ground together ) ton "pounds of
bran , live pounds of middlings , two
pounds of Unseed meal and four ounces
of salt , the whole to bo well mixed.
Send Corn.
It scorns out of season to discuss this
matter , but wo are quite sure that 'n
suggestion now Vjllt pro x-o-valuable to
whoever acts on it , says the Western
Stockman and Cultivator. Every
farmer who expects to grow corn next
year should save his seed now. Tlio
quality of fcccd has so much to do with
the character of tlio crop that every
farmer imdoi stands the necessity of
planting the best seed. 13ul it is not aa
well understood as It ought to bo that
this year good seed corn is very scarce ,
nnd the fanner who hns grain fit for
toed will make a great mistake if ho
fails to save it in the best condition.
in Iho states east of the Mississippi
river the fall has been warm and wet , BO
that the corn has not matured enough to1
nmko good beed unless it Is carefully selected
'
lected and 11 ro dried before cold woa'thof
come ? on , This is not practical on A
largo scale , and many careless farmers
will line ] themselves next spring without
good , vital seed , nnd will bo vitmblo to
buJT it of their more provident neighbors
who have saved only cnough-for them
selves. In the west much of the corn la
Imperfect. There Is such a general lack
of quality , that on whole farms it will
take careful selection to scctiro perfect
oars to make seed for next year's plant
ing , and more than this , there are whole
sections where there is no seed corn at
all.
Enough seed corn can bo easily nnd
quickly saved at husking time by having
a box or other receptacle at hand into
which choice cars can bo thrown when
unloading the wagons. It is the worlt
of but n few minutes to make n rough
selection at this time , and it saves time
and money in the future. Three or fottf
times ns much corn should bo saved in
this way as is needed , for after it ia
thoroughly cured a good deal of what la
now chosen will bo rejected ; and moro
than that , a good quality of Heed corn
will bo a nice source of revenue next )
spring by way of supplying these farm
ers who do not read farm papers.
Points In Pnvor of Clover.
The following is nn extract from bulle
tin No. 10 of the Iowa agricultural ex
periment station , treating of rust and
blight in wheat , oats and barley in 18001
Clover ( if it wits sown in sulloiont )
quantities ) would not only cause our
soils to bo much more moist than they
are now , but it would inereaso their fer
tility , and its roots would improve thoi. * ' > iit
mechanical condition. Glover should bo *
sown not only for what it would do for
our cilmiito and other crops , but because
there is more money in it than In any
other crop which can bo grown success
fully in Iowa , except corn.Vliy not
make clover one of our principal crops ,
instead of oats , which have failed oftener -
tenor than they have proved prolltablo
on account of unfavorable cllmatlo con
ditions. And who not substitute Man-
shury barley for oats ? It , is compara
tively free from rust and blight in Iowa.
It is very productive , has good strong
straw , yields more dollars' worth ot di
gestible nutrients per acre in all kinda
of seasons than oats , and as a nurse crop
for clover , it is much better than oaisjw
spring wheat. Although timothy ,
clover , oats , barley , corn and rye , ara
very common crops in Iowa , yet there
are but few farmers who have tried to
determine the dilToronco between the
feeding values of an average ucro of oata
und an average aero aero of any of tha
other crops which. I have named. Allot
them are sulllciontly palatable when ia
good condition ; but some of them ara
not well adapted to our climate ; nnd
from equal areas of lanil- seine of them
will produce much moro and much bet
tor food for the domestic animals than
others.
