CASE or CHARBON
On the Farm of Mr. Shultz the Dreaded
Cattle Plague is Said to
Have Appeared.
Pine Bluff, Sept. 18.—A case
of charbon has been discovered
in Jefferson county, and much
interest is being felt by owners
of stock.
The one case is on the farm ol
Mr. Shultz, about four miles
west of Pine Bluff. He is said
to have received a shipment of
cattle from Gillette recently, and
on account of the fact that the
disease is prevalent near Gillette
it was decided by the local
officers to quarantine the cattle
in the railroad stockyards here.
He is said to have gotten the
cattle out of the stockyards and
took them to his home. One of
the cows is said to have died and
several others are sick.
This announcement caused
much worry on the part of farm
ers and business men here, who
have feared that the disease,
which has been destroying so
many cattle in Arkansas county,
might get started in this county.
An attempt will be made to
stamp out the disease at once.
Dynamiter Arrested.
Jonesboro, Sept. 18.—Sheriff

Lake Village Appeal.
At a mass meeting of the citi
zens of Chicot county at Lake
Village Monday resolutions were
adopted appealing to the state
for aid in keeping yellow fever
out of Arkansas.
Money is needed, so they say,
if yellow jack is to be kept out
of this state and the following
telegram was received by the
Newport board of health:
“Come to our help at once or
the yellow fever will enter the
state.”
