HOG CHOLERA EXPERIMENTS, The State University Faculty Endeavor to Secure Aid to Carry Them On. A VETERINARY COURSE NEEDED. The Live Stock ble to Granting the Request—Dr. Billings' Theories—Happen- fngs at the Capital, mmission Favora- TFROM THE BEE'S LINCOLN NUREAT.] Chancellor Mannatt and Profc Bessey, of the university faculty. were in conference with the live stock sanit commission yesterday, with the object of inducingthe commissioners to pay the expense of conducting the hog cholera experiment on the state farm. When the idea of starting a school of veterinary science in connection with the university was broached last winter the regents en- teved into correspondence with Dr. Bii- lings, of New York, and invited lnm to come to Lincoln and discuss the matter with them. Dr. Billings was present at the semi-annual mecting of the board in January, and after a tatk with him the ants informally annovnced that they were satisfled that he was the proper per- son to putat the head of the proposed school. In order to satisfy themsclves thut there was a demand among the tax payers for such an institution, formal action was ferred until the ular June mecting. It s nged with Dr. Billings, howev he should come back to Lincoln conduct a series of experiments in hog cholera on the university tarm, and give the people of the state (o under: stand that he was to work for the benefit of one of their most important interests, The university managers agrecd 10 furnish laboratory and assistants, but for want of funds coulil not give any financial assist anee until an appropriation could be se- cured from the legislature next winter. Dr. Billings came 1o Lineoln, according to agrecment, and the faculty, in - order to get him at work, applied to the sani- tary commission for a donation of $100or #2500 from the fund their disposal, The aid is asked on the ground that the ex- periments in which the money is to be used are really a_part of the work in which the commission are engaged, and will be of gres ince to the stock growers with whom the commissioners have almost _exclusively to deal. After Chaneelior Mannatt had presented _his 1se, Major Birney, of the commission, swd that, next to the education of the children 'of the state, the most important wd_beneficial work in which the Uni- ty faculty and commission could en- gage was the covery of a remedy or reventive of hog cholera, a plague that is rapidiy decimating N and causing a loss of millions of dollars annually. He was of the opinion that the university farm was _intended for j such purpose, and intimated that he one would be willing to grant the ance desired if he could have any ance that any tangible end would result, Dr. Billings, in reply to a dircet query as to whether he was of the opinion th anything could be attained or demon- strated by the proposed experiments snid he could only say that the partial success that had attended similar work in Europe led him to think that somcthing might be gained in the end. Dr. Pas- teur's proposition that the di; i in severity aceording to t swine, that is, that some fami more susceptible to it than inclined to think was wrong. that difterence in age has something to do with the degree of severity, but the sed has not. It was more ~probable, Billings said, that failure to obtain uniform results from P ur's vaceine yirus was, in his opinion, due to some fanlt in preparation rather than differ- ence in the animals operated upon, and it would be one of bis studies to ascertain and avoid it. Chancellor Mannatt then said that he would like to be thoroughly assured that there was a demand for a veterinary school, and that after the class was opened there would be students enough to warrant continuing it. The trouble with most institutions of that kind, and especinlly agricultural colleges, is want of patronage. The young men do not seom desirous of taking such a course of instruction, nd There is a sur- ing scarcity of competent men in fine, and a big demand for them. He could put four or five veterinary sur- goous in " good positions ut. onc if o could find them. Professor By said that the main thing western boys wanted to know be- fore eu ng on a special conrse was that there would be a place for them when they graduate ‘his assared there would be no scarcity of students. The meeting adjourned without any de- n being taken, but it is under- stood that the commission, if the gov- ernoris willing, will give the aid desired. A ROUGH ROAD TO TRAVEL. That colored people sometimes have rough suiling on the sea of matrimony as well as “white trash” is evidenced by a petition_on file in the district court in which John Soper asks for a divoroe from his wife Elizabeth. John says that they were married at Jubilee, "Peoria county, Ills., in 1874, and that hs wife has been guilty of cruelty and abuse toward him that in his advanced years he cannot stand. According to John's petition Elizabeth has been in the habit of kicking him out of bed, calling him a “d-d old black fool,”” and impugning the legitimacy of his birth in rather for- ciblo and inelegant language. When words failed to express her felings toward him, Elizabeth would playfully throw a clock weight at his head, or make a dush at him with a butcher knife. On one occasion she locked herself away from him for a whole month, which John instead of being thankful for, as most men would be under the cireumstances, parades in his petition as one of her most cruel acts. In 1878 this amiable wife left her husband to bear the trials and tribulations of life alone, and John now wants a legal separation on the ground of desertion. CRUSHED BY E. Monday “evening William Pratt, an employe at Keeler's livery barn, started to ride one of the horses, u large stallion, for exercise. Just after leaving the stable the animal :eaved and threw him- self backward, falling direetly on top of Pratt, who was unable to get out of the saddle. The high pommel struck him in the stomach and, forced by the weight of the horse, inflicted serious internal inju- vies.

Coming down to our own times, what a wealth of affection has been lavished since 1815 upon Copenhagen, the tho- roughbred chestnut charger bestridden by the duke of Wellington at the battle of Waterloo! We know from the *'Stud Book"' that Copenhagen was a grandson lipse, and that he was bred by Gen. venor in 1808, After running un- successfully as a racehorse in 1811 and 1812, Copenhagen was sold by Gen, Gros- venor to Lord Londonderry, who took him out to the peninsula, where, shortly after the battle of Salamanca, he was bought from Lord Londonderty by the carl of Wellington—such was then our captain’s title—for 400 guin qui n was—as the late ‘; r T often loyed to remind his . a little horse standing about half an inch over fifteen hands in ight.

They had no other earthly reason for giving themselves up, but were tired of the war and glad to come in and take their chances, Whatever disposition might be made of them, they knew that Crook wouldSzive themn fair play. This abso- lute conlidence of the Indiuns in his honor is almost as important a Crook's success as his _matchless knowl- edge of their traits, The hostiles would not haye surrendered thus to any other man. All was sercne; but one of the same MALIGN which from year to y suvagoe spurfi to the blaze of war, again got in its work. The great Bernardino rancho runs along the Sulphur Springs valley, from this side of the line, down many leagues into the Sonora. Indeed the surrender took place on it, twent, five miles below our boundary.
