Interesting Find in Ireland
A remarkable discovery has been
made in County Majo , Ireland ,
where a wooden boat , believed to be
nearly 2,000 years old , has been dug
up by spnie Jaborers. The boat is
beautifully carved from thp trunk of
an oak" tree. It is forty eix feet Jong
and shows absolutely no signs of decay.
The wood was so hard that hatchets
made scarcely any impression on it.
Excursifl 3 are now being organized
to view this relic pfCeltic / handicraft ,
which will shortly b.e taken tQ theDub-
museum.
Mange and fie 0n
Bulletin No. 74 of the Nebraska E.x = r
periment Station treats on "Mange in
Cattle and Horses and Lice on Hogs. "
Jt gives the history of cattle mange in
the sia * , ivith illustrations of affected
* % *
cattle and the * A.i } pausing the dis
ease. The bulletin describes"nusu ply
the symptoms found in herds affected
wtjbi mange , quoting also a number of
author ftrfaft r$7 < e observed animals af
fected in this ( country p jn Europe.
The treatment is describ.e.d # Jb length ,

tants. It also describes some of the
popular remedies thatVCG u5 ( } at
that tune , and gives the most modern
way of treating the disease , namely , by
the co astion of dipping tanks and
the use of vano ti $ tys > The bulletin

dinging are explained as bejbag due
either to $ glujfcipn not having been
sufficiently strong op .tp r jnfftctjion after
treatment. The bulletin , also states
some of the advantages to be derived
from dipping. The author thinks that
liberal use af dips will materialy
aid in lessening the loss from abortion
believing that a large percentage of the
abortions occurring among cattle on the
range are due to a weakened condition
resulting from mange. He believes also
that a large percentage of the calves
that die very young from what is com
monly known as "calf cholera" do so
owing to the fact that they are born
weak and are therefore more suscepti
ble to disease. The bulletin gives de
scription of cattle and pig dipping
tanks , together with plates showing
construction ; also illustrations showing
the process of dipping , etc.
Memorial Services.
Col. W. W. Thompson took charge
of Memorial services last Friday anc
had a good crowd to go down to the
post in the forenoon to decorate the
graves at that place. Services were
held at the cemetery. Kev. Scama-
horn came down from Gordon to assist
with the services and helped to make
the ceremonies the most impressive
that haye heretofore been held here.
We are thankful to Capt. Dalton foi
the courtisies shown us in sending the
teams to convey our people to the cem
etery. At 1.30 p.m. , the Fort teams
again met us at the M. E , Church anc
large numbers of people went out to
Mount Hope Cemetery there to decor
ate graves and hold services.
At 7.30 p. m. . the church being nice
ly decorated for the occasion , with
stacked guns and the pulpit to repre
sent the camp in the evenings , the win
dows hung with curtains of red , white ,
and blue and other decorations profuse ,
services were begun with a song by the
choir.
The old time songs as they used to
sing them were sung and were apprec
iated by all the old timers who hac
heard them sung near 40 years ago
Miss Myrtle Pettijohn then delivered
a recitation. Judge Walcott enter
tained the audience for awhile and
then that great good man , Rev. Scama-
horn , was called and made an impress
ive , thoughtful talk on the soldier , the
early times and the present time. Mr.
Scamahorn tells that he is living in the
present time and that there is enough
now to interest us. The war is over
the Union sav d and we meet once a
year to drop a tear and a flower over the
graves of the departed and decorate
alike the blue and the grey.
The services were impressive and
many felt that it was the more so as
each year marks ono or two less of the
old boys who wore the blue.

An Engineering Feat.
The engineers of the Pennsylvania
railroad have cause to congratulate
themselves over their success in mov
ing a bridge nearly 1,000 feet long , in
cluding a heavy draw , over the Rari-
tan at New Brunswick , N. J. , without
interupting the regular train service of
the road. They moved the bridge to
new piers fifteen feet from the old ones
in just one minute and forty-three sec
onds. The work was begun immediately
after a train passed. En eight and one
half minutes the track was ready for
use. In six minutes more a freight
train came along on its regular schedule
and was allowed to pass without de
lay. . Lihcoln Journal.

Aeronaut Nearly Drowned
Aeronaut Windlinger , of Hartington ,
had a narrow escape from drowning
in the Big Sioux river near Sioux City ,
Iowa , Sunday afternoon , after an as
cension at Biverside park. The wind
was high and carried the ship into the
middle of the stream , where he fell ten
feet into the water with a splash that
filled his mouth and lungs. He called
lustily for help and two boats started
in his diiection but when near the
drowning man they turned and left
him to his fate. John Seeley and Ar
thur Meade. two fishermen shoved their
boat into the water and rescued him
at the last moment. He was nearly
dead and was unconscious for several
hours after the accident.
