MANY ANIMALS AFFECTED
AfwiHUvnt State Veterinarian Woods Is
Probing Into Cause of Malady
Runners Are Negligent.
Hog cholera Is rampant In this
section and Assistant State Veterin
arian W. J. Woods is now battling -with
the disease, says the Walla Walla
Union. Three hog ranches near Wal
la Walla are affected. Thirty-five
hogs have died on one ranch and 20
on another and 15 on a third within
, the past few weeks. The fight is now
being made to confine the infected
community to its present bounds. It
is not thought many of the hogs on
the three ranches, about five hun
dred in all, can be saved. In most in
stances the disease was allowed to
spread before Dr. Woods was sum
moned. When found in his office last night
Dr. Woods was rather retlcient In dis
cussing the case and refused abso
lutely to give the names of the far
mers suffering the loss, claiming that
there was no danger, as none of the
hogs were being marketed and it
would on'.y injure the farmer. Dr.
Woods says the 'malady is in a mild
form and if the farmers co-operate
with him they can stamp it out be
fore it has the entire valley In Its
grip. Two additional cases of hog
cholera have been reported to Dr.
Woods nnd hi v!!l invest gate both
this morning. When asked the cause
of cholera, Dr. Woods said: "We
thought we knew the cause up to a
few months a?o until one of the pro
fession came forth with new ideas

and as a result veterinarians all over

Continuing, Dr. Woods said: "The
great trouble with the average ranch'
er Is that he Is willing to take
chances where we have not. When he
notices anything wrong with any of
the animals he should summon aid;
for one who makes animal diseases a
profession can see a hundred dangers
where the average rancher does not
see one. He is not supposed to

idly and the first thing the rancher
knows his entire pen is infected. Each
animal should be isolated from the
others if not killed at once, while the
pens should be thoroughly disinfected
This wet weather makes it a hard
battle with the disease for whenever
an afflicted animal walks, the ground
becomes alive with germs and they
will remain near the surface until
summer. I intend making another
trip through the quarantined district
this week."

"RREWSTER'S MnXIONS"
AT THE OREGON THEATER
. What promises to be one o f the
most important engagement of the
present season at the Oregon Theatre.
Is booked for February 28.
The occasion will be the presenta
tion by Cohan and Harris' comedians
of Wlnchell Smith's and Byron On
gley's dramatization of George Barr
McCutcheon's famous story "Brews
ter's Millions" of which upwards of
half a .million copies have a:ready
been sold. The story of Montgomery
Brewster's wild and daring dissipa
tion of a million dollars in twelve
months in order to obtain possession
of a legacy of 37, 000, 000, is already
familiar to all readers of light fic
tion. The humorous adventures and
and escapades of young Brewster in
quest of his goal have been deftly wo
ven into delightful comedy by Messrs
Smith and Ongley, and as presented
by Cohan and Haris' clever comedians ',

duplication. Originally produced by
Frederic Thompson, that master of
stage productions, It ran for an en

kuently for an extended period In
both London and Chicago, In each
city recording an almost unheard of
success. Its presentation here will
be marked by the same care and elab
rateness of presentation as during its
long runs In the cities above named.
The third act discloses what is prob
ably the highest achievement in stage
mechanism hitherto .recorded.' It
discloses the deck of a ship In a
storm at sea with such marvelous
fidelity that the onlooker can Imagine
himself as experiencing all the sen
sations of the participators without
any too wide stretch of his imagina
tion. While this episode In the play
Is melodramic In the extreme the
balance of "Brewster's Millions" is
delicious, sparkling comedy and this
element is largely responsible for the
excellence of its entertaining quali

GRAFT BONE OF SHEEP
IN THE LEG OF A CHILD
Spokane, Wash. An unusual surgl-
nol nnaratlnn wfljl nprfomlftd at the
city hospital Friday at Sand Point,
Idaho, when Dr. U. f. stacKnouse,
removed about three Inches of the
femur, the bone between the knee and
hip, of the 18-months-old daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Bentley of
Clarks Fork, and substituted a section
of bone from the leg of a young
sheep.
The animal was killed after the
nnArnlinn wan commenced and the
bone taken out as soon as death oc
curred and placed in the child's leg.
The bone was then packed in whipped
blood taken from the sheep, so that
all the nourishment possible could be
given for the building up of the trans
planted bone.
The operation became necessary on
account of the femur of the child be
ing diseased as a result of walking at
too early an age.

JIMMY BRITT TO STAR
IN CONAN DOYLE SKETCH
Paris. Jimmy Brltt, the California
lightweight, looking very fit, landed
In France from South Africa this
week. He said:
"There Is nothing doing there.. iney
have some good men, but In the few
places where prize fighting Is per
mitted, a purse of 31000 looks bigger
to them than a cathedral. So far as
I can see nothing will take me Into
the ring again.
"What brought me back In a hurry
was a desire to see Conan Doyle. He
has virtually consented to write me
a one-act play, the hero of course, to
be a prize fighter. I shall use It as
a sketch in the music halls."
Britt was an amateur actor before
he took up prize fighting, and the
Conan Doyle sketch will give him an
opportunity both to box and act.

TURKISH ARMY AND NAVY
WIIJj HE REORGANIZED
Constantinople. Shefket Pasha, the
new minister of war. Intends to reor
ganize thoroughly the Turkish army.
The navy also is to be put on a sound
fighting basis. German Ideas will
prevail in the army and English In
the navy. The old duys of graft,
when ammunition and supplies were
regarded as personal perquisites of
commanding officers and the very
engines of warships were sold by
their officers, Is to be ended. Shefket
Pasha, in an interview, said:
"Surprise Is expressed that the
Turkish army has adopted German
methods and has employed German
officers. How could it be otherwise
when General von Moltke came to
Turkey fully 80 years ago and himself
built the nucleus of the present Turk
ish army, which you may see from
this antedated the reorganization of
the present-day army of France?
"And then. It seems to me that In
our navy English regulations are in
effect which were Introduced long ago
by English officers. In fact, the com
mander in chief of our fleet Is an
Englishman and he plans shortly to
bring other officers from his native
land."
