A N w Departure.
As the Rev. Mr. Barnhart, who
preaches at Fairfield the first Sunday in
the month, was absent last Sabbath,
Mr. Lincoln E. Farrington took his
place, with great acceptance. His text
was "Come Unto Me All Ye That Labor
and Are Heavy Laden and I Will Give
Yon Rest." Besides enlarging upon the
invitation of the text, he quoted many
of the promises of both Old and New
Testament, and at the same time showed
plainly that the sinner must come if be
will be saved. He then told of some of
the joys of the Christian, and also of
his trials. He was listened to with in
terest through the whole by a large au
dience. We hear that Mrs. D. Harrington, his
mother, who is spending the winter in
central Nevada, where the mercury got
down to 20 degrees below zero, is slowly
gaining her health. We hope she will
fully recover, and be able to be among
us when spring opens. Ex.

RESUMED WITH VIGOR.
Work at the Cascades Goes on -with a
Force of Over 400.
. Work has been resumed at the Cas
cade Locks with great vigor. In answer
to an advertisement for 100 men in the
Portland papers, fifty came up Satur
day, and fifty more will come up by
next boat. There is at present a force
of 400 men working, and day and night
shifts are being run of ten hours each
For the past month work has been
slack, owing to the snow and had wea-
ther, but there is no longer difficulty
from this source. It was reported that
a "mud Bpring" was giving the con'
tracfbrs much difficulty, but the trouble
was exaggerated. In the place spoken
of a spring has always existed, but not
such as to materially affect the improve
ment. Mr. Day recently flaid that he
thought boats would be running through
the canal by next winter, and there is
no reason to doubt the statement if it is
within human power to accomplish that
result at the Cascades. As much force
will be employed as it is profitable to
work, and each week's labor will from
henceforth tell mightily on the wort to

speech, thanking the club for the honors
shown the officers of the elub. He was
accorded a vote of thanks at the conclu
sion of the speech. Nominations being
in order, Hon. Eobt. Mays named Frank
Menefee or president, A. G. Johnston
nominated Nick Sinnott for vice presi
dent, C. L. Phillips nominated H. H
Riddell for secretary and G. V. Bolton
for treasurer. By unanimous consent
the secretary cast the white ballot for all
the officers named. The delegates to the
late convention at Portland, Messrs.
Riddell, Kelsay and Farley, made
speeches, which were both entertaining
and instructive. The hall was filled
with republicans. The meeting was
rather quiet for a political one.

A good many cattle have died recently
near The Dalles and throughout adjoin
ing counties. Some of the owners have
supposed they died of ' black-leg. An
account of the symptoms of this disease,
therefore, ought to be of interest to the
stockmen whose cattle are affected, taken
from the Toledo Blade :
Black-leg, charbon or black-quarter is
a fatal, infectious disease of young cattle.
The swellings, which are external, emit
a crackling, sound when the hand is
passed over them. The disease is as a
rule confined to certain localities, on
certain pasture the disease appears reg
ularly in the summer and fall of the year.
The cause of the disease ,ia bacillus,
which has the power oi reproducing it
self within itself. Dry spores may be
carried from the field in hay or other
feed from the field, and cause the disease
when the food is eaten. A slight wound
made by sharp points of the food or an
abrasion of the skin, enables the virus
to impregnate the animal with the dis
ease. The symptoms exhibit themselves
about three days after infection. The
animal loses appetite and animation, is
dull, debilitated and has a high fever.
The animal may be stiff or lame. After
the swellings show themselves the ani
mal succumbs y after one and a half to
three days. Before death there is in
creaeing weakness, hard breathing and
occasional attacks of colic. The tumors
may appear on the thighs, the neck, the
shoulder, the breast, the flanks, or the
rump, but never below the knee joint.
It sometimes appears on the base of the
tongue or on the throat. This is but
seldom the case. The crackling sound is
carried by the bacilli as they multiply.
Remedies have been given, but so far a
positive cure is unknown. Certain
writers recommend the opening of the
swellings by long incisions, pretty deep,
with a sharp knife and applying carbolic
acid 1 ounce to a pint of water. When
the tumor is low down on the limb it
has been recommended to tie around the
limb, just above the tumor, a cord ; then
open the tumor and apply the carbolic
acid lotion. In cases where the disease
appears, it is well to put the animals on
upland pasture. In treating the ani
mals, great caution should be exercised
to prevent any abrasion on the hands of
the operator to touch any of v the exuda
tions on the tumors, as it is dangerous,
as the disease will communicate itself to
