Cooney Kellner now expects to save only two bead of hogs oat of the 92 that constituted his herd before the cholera attacked them. All have died but nine head and seven of them h<*. e the disease. The other twO| head wer * removed and he expects to save them. He burned most of the hogs. It re? quired considerable wood to get them started but after the fat caufcbt fire the hogs burned up slick and clean, not even a bone being left Two hogs, one a red one and the other one black were found in the river near the Stott Grant place west of town and the attention of County Health Officer Loy was called to the matter. He had the hogs pulled from the stream and burled and was unable to learn who was guilty of having thrown them into the water. Mr. "Kellner’s hogs were all red and the only other man whose herd had the disease seems to have been S. W. Williams, near where the hogs were found. He proved to the satisfaction of Dr. Loy that he had buried his, and there seems no way of finding out who put the hogs in the river. There was sufficient cholera germs in the hogs found to pollute the river to its mouth and it will be fortunate if there is not a spread of the disease. There is a big penalty 'or throwing dead animals into flowing streams and it would go hard with any person proven guilty of it. “
