Peculiar Disease is Hydro
phobia. The so-called walking disease
is dumb hydrophobia. Prof. Per
not, state bacteriologist has com
pleted his proof as to the nature
of the disease and made his re
port to the State Board of Health,
lie found the brain of the diseas
ed animals, both horses and hogs,
to be" teeming with negri bodies,
the germs of hydrophobia. These
germs were introduced into rab
bits and they developed typical
hydrophobia. A post mortem
examination showed their brains
to be in the same condition as
those of the hogs and horses that
had died of the disease. The
cerms from these rabbits were
iniected into other rabbits and
they in turn died of hydrophobia
and the proof is complete.
The finding of the germs abov
should be proof enough but add
to that the experiments on the
other animals and the proof is
such as must be admitted by a
who know anything of pathology
or bacteriology
The mystery that surround
this disease is now cleared away
like fog before the sun and the
farmers and stockmen know what
thev have to deal with. Nothing
is more difficult than fighting an
unknown and invisible foe.
The symptoms, as in most
brain affections, differ greatly
according to the parts of the brain
most affected. Some live for
weeks- and even months while
others become furious and die in
a dav or two. In the latter
stages they generally show a par
tially paralized condition of legs
If certain parts of the brain are
especially affected it causes par
alysis of stomach and bowels,
causing stagnation of food, giv
ing an opportunity for bots,
worms and other intestinal par
asites to multiply ana so give
some color to the theory that the
animal dies on account of these
parasites. Mail as well as the
lower animals is subject to this
disease.
There are two kinds of Hydro
phobia the Dumb and the Rabid
or Furious. This being the Dumb
variety it was more difficult of
recognition.
Each animal displayed symp
toms according to his nature.
The horse being a herbivmous
animal shows little tendency to
bite. He uses his muscles in
walking, as is his nature, while
the dog and coyote have a ten
dency to bite and snap at objects
with which they come in contact.
The hog generally -loses flesh and
appetite, grunt around a few days
or weeks and dies of paralysis,
It is net definitely known how the
disease started here, bat it Is known
that coyotes have been seen traveling
through the country with all the sytnp
toms of Hydrophobia. This diBesse has
been prevalent in Washington and Idaho
and may have been brought here by
diseased horses from those states. The
germs ate found in the secretions of the
eyes and nose of the horse, so may be
communicated by eating and drinking
after an affVcted animal.
As for cure, there is no enre tor man
or beast once the disease is established.
A person can he vaccinated so as to
prevent the disease from developing, but
it m ist be one before symptoms of
Hydrophobia develop This treatment
will not like'y be practical for horses
and hoas.Themain reliance must bealong
the line of prevention, quarantine and
disinfection. As far as the veterinaries
are concerned, I have no quarrel with
tnem nor criticism to offer, nor shou'd
thev criticise me as I did not enter the
field till several weeks after they had
abandoned ft and then only at the urgent
solicitation of the men whose stock was
dying.
Asf jr Mr. Knappenberg's letter to the
TimeH of last week, it hardly requires
an answer, bnt it would not be polite to
ignore him as he says be is "one who
knows" and can give ns facts, but his
go-called facts, on investigation, all
prove to be only fancy. Tbat famous
pill did not stop the disease, so it is re
ported that he shipped his begs to Port
land last week. The only part of bis
article where he leaves the realm of
fiction, ia bis pathetic story of the two
little calves, tlmt in their dire extremity
were obliged to nurse some elck soms,
wbicb caused their untimely death.
This is sad indeed. It is said to be the
first tinn ia all the history of Calfdom,
tbat tuib a thing bas ocenred. Roman
mythology tells us that when Romulus
unnatural grandfather, the atng, they
were nursed by a she-wolf. We have
known politicians whocould neverthrive
except when pn'ling the public teat, we
have snen nius. in their mad rush to
milm hoira of themselves, suck the
fr.tl cow. but never before has a calf
been known to suck a sow. Verily the
w orld dots move, who knows bnt what
the time is near at band when the lion
a ud the lamb shall lie down together
and a liltlf i hild shall feed there con
densed milk.
What a pity these remaikable calves
could not have lived. Friend Josepl
k nlrt imvn nnnipd them Romulus and
(tennis and exhibited them at fairs,
alonu with their unnatural mo' her.
Next time Mr. Knappenberg sees any
thing so unusual we hone he will call
others to w itness the spectacle, not that
we question his veracity, bnt we must
consider posterity. In Biblical history
tnld that "There arose rulers
who knew not Joseph," so in futnregen
orations there mar arise those who
know cot this mcdern Joseph.
He shows that he is a keen observer
of the habits of lower animals and we
sincerely hope be will continue his
efforts along these lines and eventually
write a treatise on Calfology or Pigology
bnt we would advise him never again to
attempt to inv ade the Medical Profession

Bumps on tha Head.
The lump raised by a blow on the
head is due to the resistance offered
by the hard skull and its close connec
tion with the movable elastic scalp by
many circumscribed bands of connec
tive tissue. The result of a blow when
the scalp is not cut Is the bruising and
Jaceration of many of the small blood
vessels or capillaries. Blood or its
fluid constituent, serum, is poured into
the meshes of the surrounding con
nectlve tissue, which is delicate,
spongy, distensible and cellular, and
the well known bump or lump is quick
ly formed. This cannot push inward
at all and naturally takes the line of
least resistance. Similar bumps may
be formed on the skin in exactly the
same way. for the shin bone also is
covered only by skin and subcutaneous
connective tissue.
The First Iron Bridge.
The first iron bridge ever erected in
the world and which Is in constant use
at the present time spans a little river
in the county of Salop, on the railroad
leading from Shrewsbury to Worces
ter, England. It was built In the year
1778 and Is exactly ninety-six feet in
length. The total amount of Iron used
in Its construction was 37S tons. Ste
phenson, the great engineer, in writ
ing concerning it said, "When we con
sider the fact that the casting of iron
was at that time in its infancy, we
are convinced that unblushing audac
ity alone could conceive and carry into
execution such an undertaking."
Fertile Socotra.
Socotra. a large island In the Indian
ocean, is one of the least known of
the inhabited parts of the world. It is
iJountainous. but very fertile, and in
ancient times was famed for frankin
cense and myrrh, aloes, dragon's blood
and" spices. But now Sumatra and
South America produce more dragon's
blood.
