The Roseburg "Plaindealer" says
Pinkeye has been raising havoc among
the horses at the railroad front, about
forty having turned up their heels from
the effects of this disease. We are
however happy to be able to inform
our readers, the veterinary surgeons
have now succeeded in arresting it, and
the horses are getting better. No new
cases have made their appearance for
the past week. The same paper also
sajs the O. & C.R.RCo. will have the
connecting link of their telegraph line
between Roseburg and Myrtle Cieek
comp'eted this week. This will give
them a perfect line to the end of the
track.
It would bo well for our people to
conduct themselves in such a manner
hereafter as to have no fear for the pres
ent or futurp, and also to make prayer
ful amends for their past misdeeds, be
cause the end of tho world, which ac
cording to the false rhyme of Mother
Shipton, was to have occurred in 18S1
having been unavoidably postponed,
another old prophecy has been dug up
from the trench. This distich declares
that when Good Friday fa'Is oh St.
George's day, and EisteronSt. Mark's
dav, and Corpus Christi onJ3t. John
the Babtist's dav, the final conjunction
vvill arrive. These conjunctions will
occur in 1886.
Everybody that has tried Ammen's
Cough Syrup continues its use: besides
they tell their neighbors of it. We
wero in a drug store the other day
when a customer asked for a bottle of
Ammen's Cough Syrup, saying. "I
do not know anything about it myself,
but my neighbor advises me to buy it
for my cold, and tells me that the use
of three bottles has entirely cured his
cough of two years standing, in fact he
says, 'It is the best medicine in the
world for coughs, colds and lung com
plaints, and that a one dollar bottle
did him more good than all the pre
scriptions he had from tho doctors.
A writer in an exchange says: I
discovered many years ago that wood
could be made to last longer than iron
in the ground, but thought the procoss
so simple that it was not well to make
a stir about it. I would as soon have
poplar, basswood or ash as any kind of
timber for fence posts. I have taken
out basswood posts after having been
set seven v ears that were as sound
when taken out as when first put in
the ground. Time and weather seem
to have no effect on them. The post
can bo prepared for less than two cents
apiece. This is the recipe: Take
boiled linseed oil and stir in pulverized
coal to the consistency of paiht. Put
a coat of this over tho timber and
there is not a'inaii that will live to see
it rot.
Typhoid lev cr.
A paper was read, says the "Ore
gonian," before the Paris Academy of
of Medicine last month on the
use of water in typhoid fever,
which is attracting much attention.
The treatment consists, substantially,
in putting tho patient into a bath
warn.ed to the the temperature of his
body, and then gradually cooling it
down to sixty or ev en forty degree.
The effect of this application is said to
be magical in the immediate ameliora
tion of the fever. Tho permanent ef
fect pf it is best shown in tho statistics
accompanv ing tho paper. In the
French army, between 1S75 and 1SS0,
there weie 26,017 cases of typhoid
fever; of these 9507 died, being u mor
tality of 30.7 per cent. In the corres
ponding time there were in the German
army 14,835 cases of tv phoid fever, of
vv'iom 1491 died a mortality of about
10 per ct. The character of the disease
was much the same in both armie",
and the general habits and health of
tho men the same. Tho only notice
able difference was that in the German
army tho water treatment was largely
used. Many o'her figures are given,
all from official statistis and all point
ing in tho same direction.
How to Know Glanders. As
horse owners in this valley aro in
terested in tho matter just now from
tho rumors (whether false or true)
which are afloat concerning the horss
disease at the r.ailpnd front, tho 'Tid
ings" gives tho following simple tpst
for detei mining whether a horse has
the glanders, on tho authority of Prof.
A, A. Antrim, tho veterinary surgeon,
who passed "through here this week:
In glanders-, as in cerUin other aflVc
tions, thete is a discharge from the nose
of the animal. To make the test allow
this discharge to drop into a bucket
of clear ater (a w ooden bucket n ith
nupainted bottom.) If the matter
sinkts to the bottom and adheres to it,
the disease is glanders, ' ami von had
better take tho horso out and kill it at
once." In every other disease this
discharge vvill float in the water in
steal of settling and sticking to the
bottom of the bucket.
Watch Your Girls Tho follow
ing from tho Albany 'Democrat" has
more than a local application to that
place: ''There are several in this city,
daughters of respectable parents, who
ate going to ruin as fast as their uncer
tain associations vvill cany them.
They are allowed to run nround the
streets so much and go with such hood
lumibh young men that their charac
ters aro becoming tainted to such a
degree that they are almost past re
demption. If their parents would keep
them from gwing over the falls they
had belter turn over a new leaf pretty
quick, for in several cases there is v pry
littln time to lose. You may say it is
impossible that your daughter is walk
ing in the crooked path but we enjoin
vou to be sure of the matter.
Railroad North. New maps issu
ed bj the Centra' Pacific lailtoad com
pany, show that 'among I ho projected
lines of the company is one from Win
nemucca duo noith to tho Columbia
river near Walla Walla. A branch
from this line at Camp C. F. Smith,
north of Fort McDermit to Wocd
River, is also marked on the map.
The impression that this road would bo
built as soon as tho southern route to
Now Oi leans was completed has pre
vailed fr )pars, and the fact that i it
martted on tho new innps of the Cen
tral Pacific indicate that it vvill be.
This road will open up an extensive

Chinese Cheap Labor. The Port
land "Northwest News" has an inter
view with Herman Clark, w ho it is
claimed has built more miles of rail
road than any living contractor. Mr.
Clark has done most of tho work on
the Northern Pacific Railroad and is
at present engaged on the western end
of that road, which ho hopes to bnish
in July next. He understands tho rel
ative value of the labor of men of
different nationalities and gives his
opinion emphatically on that imported
from China. His remarks might be
profitably studied by those railroad
builders who have been chiefly instru
mental in bringing the Chinese to Cali
fornia. He tells the representative of
the "News" that he has no use for
Chinee cheap labor. He used only
white labor on the east side of the
mountain", nnd built by aid of it
312 miles of railroad while only 83
were built on the pacific end of the
line. He then proceeds to prove by
his ample expprienco that white labor,
though more has to bo paid for it, is
really "cheaper. During the last four
years ho has built 420 miles from Bis
mark west, 340 miles on the Yellow
stone and ISO miles in the Rocky
mountains. Tha 312 miles built last
year were chieuy on the Yellowstone
a region by no means agreeable to the
railroad builders. All of this work
was dono with white labor, and the
work was accomplished more cheaply,
quicker and in a far more substantial
manner than it couln pos-dblv have
been by Chinese. The laborers em
p'oyed were chiefly Swedes, Danes and
Norwegians.

To The loved Ores Tlint Arc Cone.
Others pure loved angels bright.
On unfurled wings have fiown away;
Other souls have taken flight,
For their home beyond the sky.
rarcwell loved ones! Life is ended;
All thine earthly conflicts o'er,
May their souls, their hoped for guerdon,
Find on Heaven's immortal shore.
Bereaved friends and sorrowing parents,
AVtcping for the Spirits lied;
Lo! they are not dead but slccpcth.
Hath the son of righteousness said.
Then among the angels seek them,
AVherc no cankering grief or pain,
Comes bctw-cn the Lord anil holy,
There they part to meet again.
They shall all bloom in fields of light,
Transplanted by my care,
And saints upon their garments white,
These sacred Blossoms wear.
