THE VETEKIMAniAN KErOUT.
The report of Territorial Veterinarian
Hopkins contained much useful informa
tion. During-the past year ho had con
demned to death forty-two horses and
mules afflicted with glanders. Among
the diseases 'prevalent ho has found in-
iluenea and strangles in the horao and
verminous bronchitis and black leg ill
the cattle. He deprecates the imports'
tioii of 'cattle by rail , in that case they
are liable to spread Texas fever. The
result of his investigations into the cattle
disease iin'Kansas waa given , and ho de
cides lit to be neither the
fociand mouth disease noi
ergotism , but simply foot rot. A long
history "I the origin and spread oi
pleuco-pueumonia in this country wae
given and the strongest measures for its
aupprossioti were urged. A rigid quaran
tine of ut least 100 daya is required.
; . Calvoa from infected districts are now
uont'to ' Chicago , and unless something is
[ immediately done the disease will soon
'bo ' rife upon the plains. If it spreads
ihcro it will cost the government more
'than ten years' war. The bill before con-
: fress ; should become n law , for nothing
'less ' will avail. At present no contagious
diseases among the cattle of Wyoming.

DAVENPORT , IOTTA , April 8. Some

ho residence of another prominent citi
zen was burglarized in much the sami
nyatorious manner , a quantity of drcesoi
ind other things of value being taken
On this occasion concealmou
was no longer possible on the part of tin
lorpotrator , ns the portion who , commit
, od both thefts was the only ono know )

such she can bo called , is a lady , thj
wife of u prominent clergyman , and he
nannor of operation was Mius : Shi
would go to the residence of ono of he
msband'a flock and pretend to bo tirec
or nick , and ask to Ho down. Being tin
wife of a minuter , nothing was though

was accorded her. When she had reatoc
mdgono the holisohold found that many o
ts valu&blo articles of clothing had goni
also. The police were notified in tin
natanco , and upon visiting the rosidonci
of the divine , all the missing articlpi

Tom the residence of the lirst montionec
individual. A plea of insunity was on

ehaso of its silence , and uses theoo
strong words : "Tho young men of this
town who have sisters or young lady
friends arc in honor bound to organize
themselves into a vigilance committee for
the purpose of dealing out summary justice - '
tico to all ouch men as have no regard
for the society of Lincoln homos and the
