Outbreak of Among Cattle in Frontenac. Kingston, Ont., Auzast 1,.—The farm- ers in the vicinity of E'ginburg have be- come greatly alarmed at a mysterious dis- Peculiar Disease ease which has made its appearance among the youog cattle in that vicinity. The disease attacks the cows iu the eyes, which bulge out, after which they go blind. The disease is not confined t© cows, several horses, and evea chickens, having been affected. Dr. Bell, V. 5. says that the compara- lively new disease may appear in an enzoot c or epizootic form. As it appears im the county of Frontenac, cattle are attacked at all ages, seems {0 suffer most. The disease is most prevaient in the hot and dry summer zovuths, but it may appear at avy time in but the dairy cows the year. The doctor said he knew of sheep that suffered from the disease last winter, and five or mx of the lock went blind. The in@amation was so severe that the eyeballs msoue instances burst.. Whether the disease is due to micro-organiem is not certain. There is no doubt, however that it is due to microbes from some sovrce,and thatit is contagious. The first Pr. Bell saw of the disease was while in Penosy]~ vania, about five years ago. He also saw tases iu Rochester, N. Y., last summer, and has seen sone within the last two weeks in two or three counties. Cattle maay have more than one attack, and in this ewent they are certain to go blind. WHERE JAS SHE GONE? Mysterious Disapperance of a Well- known Russian Lady.

Ball Manu‘acturing Co yve and Hard ware Merchants, Montague, June 7—1Lm THE DAILY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN, AUGUST 3, 1898 FRANCE IS INTERESTED. Friendly. Panis, August 1.—From a semi- official source tte following statement was made : | ‘*From a cowmercial point of tiew, France is as much interested in Amer.can as Spau | wh trade and consequently she has no teas- on to jeopardize ber friendly relations w.th the Unitei States. Still she feels sya pa- thy for her unfortunate neighbor and rejo' ces heartily at the fact tha! peace is to be arranged and that the French ambassador, M. Caubon, has been the messenger of peace sent by Spain to America. “As tothe terms upon which peace will be arranged, the French government and public opinion in France are perfect! aware that the United Scates will no longer | be satisfied with s mere independence of Cubs, considering that the war has cost her considerable sacrifices. Consequently, the French press, especially the Journal Des Debats and the Tempe, are a ready taking into accoun(,that importaat elemen: in the settlementof peace. They only hope that America will not claim too much. Notthat Francefeels cnvious in view of the increasing power of the United States, but simply becarse too conditions on the part of America would make peace d tlicuit. “In fact it deserves to be pointed out that France does not make apy objection to the United States iocrcasing citber its strength or iis dominions. “Tbe reas >n for the quiet feeling of France in this matter is that she is convinced “that if such au ivcrease in aby way threatens any European power she is not that power. Even the annexaion of Hawail, which giveatothe Uni ed, States an important position in the Pac fic oceaa, has not dis turbed France in the slightest degree, ber possessions in America being small and unimportvat, consisting of some little r= lands, and French Guinia. “As tothe Philippines, if these islands are to be lost toSpain, Franceas the ruler of Indc~China, would probably prefer hays ing the Americansas next door neighbors instead of any European or Asiacic power. Consequently, what France wants, 60 far as the United States are coucerned, is only @ proper consideration of ber commercial interests.” onerous Military Courage. The question of the comparative pro- portion of really brave men in any’army will probably never be determined. Great officers on the continent keep their knowledge on that subject rigor- ously as a professional secret and as- sume as a certainty that all soldiers are brave. They know very well, however, that they are not, and when confiden- tial will admit, as Marshal von Moltke once did in public, that with a great number it takes discipline, and severe discipline, too, to induce them to face shells unshrinkingly. American officers have been known to acknowledge that of their men, who are as brave as any in the world, 20 per cent would run away if they could, and in every army, even ours, which a man enters only of free will, there is a certain proportiom who literally cannot overcome their fears. They are stricken with a sort of paralysis. The proportion is probably not high in any army, the majority, if in health, being able to dotheir duty and having intense motives to do it, but ueither is the proportion high of those who literally feel no fear.—-London Spectator.

The reason itis necessary to be well covered while sleeping is that when the body lies down it is the intention of nature that it should rest, and the heert especially should be relieved of its regular work temporarily. So that organs makes ten strokes a minute Jess than when the body is upright posture. This ress 600 strokes ia sixty mivutes. There. fore in the eight hours a man usually spends in taking uis nigbt’s rest, the heart is saved nearly 5,000 strokes, As it pumps six ounces or blood with each stroke, it lifts 30,006 strokes ounces less of nlo.d in thisnight’s session that it would luring the day, when @ man 1s usually in an upright pcsition, Now, the body is lent for its warmtbon the vigor of the circulation,and as the blood flows so mucb much more slowly through the veins when one is lying down, the warmth lost inthe reduced circulation must be supplied by Wisconsin. nm an lepen O.tawa Journal: A on foot in New York to g to penalize swearing.
