TUBERCULOSIS
FOUND IN HENS
State Expert Says That It
Should Be Stamped Out
Without Any Delays
Tuberculosis exists among the hens
In the barnyards, chicken coops and
poultry farms of Pennsylvania far
more than generally known and there
are a great many hens in the State
that arc tubercular, compared with
seven or eight years back, according
to W. Theodore Wittman, expert poul
tryman, of the Department of Agricul
ture.
This increase is no doubt due direct
ly to the enormous increase in the last
decade of the keeping and the at
tempting to keep poultry in large num
bers on the intensive plan. In plain
words on bare ground, soon sour,
tainted and Infected ground.
Without pretending to be ultra
scientific, it is Mr. Wittman's opinion
that avaln, bovine and human tuber
culosis are mere variations or adap
tations of the same disease and that
the practice of allowing poultry to
feed after cattle or hogs that may
be infected, or of allowing some hu

man to expectorate where chickens
can feed, is likely to infect some in
dividual hen and she in time, especial
ly on filthy ground, may finally infect
an entire flock.
Avain tuberculosis is nearly always
a disease of the abdominal cavity or,
the nodules are nearly always found in
the liver, bowels and spleen and rarely
in the lungs. There is no sure way
that can be commonly used to know
whether a certain hen is tubercular
without killing, followed by a post
mortem. The most observable out
ward signs are a peculiar stare to the
eye, a wasting of the bodily tissue, es
pecially at the breast bone, and an oc
casional lameness or dragging of ona
leg. Occasionally there may be indi
cations at the knee or hock Joint and
the sole of the foot.
Any hen "going light" should be
promptly inspected, p. post mortem
made and if the characteristic nodules
are found in parts as mentioned above,
the carcass should bo cremated and
diligent search made for others in like
condition. Pigeons going light or hav
ing •'diseased" wing Joints are in the
same class and to be as promptly dealt
with.
In a few cases known to the Depart
ment where this disease has been ig
nored. after a few years, it apparently
assumed a virulent form attacking old
and young chickens in largo numbers
and causing great loss and compulsory
abandonment of poultry keeping For
tunately on account of the wasting na
ture of the disease few reach the mar
ket, but, buyers will do well in all cases
to reject carcasses where the liver is
missing or the meat gone from the
breast.
POLICEMEN GET
COMPENSATION
Interesting Decision by Chair
man Mackey Is Made Public
This Morning
Constitutionality of the Pennsylva
nia workmen's compensation act is up
held and a policeman declared to be a
public servant and to come under the
operation of the compensation act by
Chairman Harry A. Mackey, of the
board, in an opinion given to-day re
versing the referee in a case decided
against the city of Reading and ap
pealed to the board by the munici
pality. The decision will affect the
hundreds of municipal divisions in the
State.
Daniel B. Smith, a Reading police
man, was declared to have died from
the result of a fall during which he in
jured his side and compensation was
awarded the widow. The evidence is
held to be insufficient to sustain the
verdict.
Mr. Mackey decides that the claim
that the municipality was deprived of
the right of election of trial by jury is
not well founded because the Supreme
Court has held that municipal cor
porations, being creatures of legis
lation, have no constitutional guaranty
of trial by jury. As to the objecUons
to the title of the act, he says that the
title puts everyono on notice that the
common law method of settling ques
tions between employer and employe
has been abolished and that a new
scheme of compensation has been
adopted with a right of election.
The chairman decides that a police
man has been accorded the benefits of
compensation, saying: "It is perfectly
evident that the Legislature intended
to extend the benefits of this la<if to
every servant of the State or of a mu
nicipality, city, county or other gov
ernmental agency who renders service
for a valuable consideration. This sec
tion expressly excludes the casual fem
ploye not engaged in the regular busi
ness of the employer and persons who
take materials to their homes for the
purpose of working upon them."
In regard to the claim that the act is
unconstitutional in that it goes against
the constitutional provision regulating
recovery of damages, the opinion says:
"The Legislature by the act of 1915 re
pealed all acts giving to an employe
any right of action against his em
ployer based upon negligence, except
as provided for in Section 2 of said act,
and that in its place there has been
substituted, not a right of action nor
any scheme of litigation either known
to the framers of the Constitution or
regulated by any provision of that in
strument. but rather a scheme of com
pensation born of new conditions
drafted in conformity with the spirit
of the times and in harmony with
other humanitarian enactments."

Dynamite, Mule Terror
of Camp, Is Mustered Out
Special to the Telegraph
Camp Whitmaa, X. Y. This
Is the history of Dynamite, the male
mule who has kept,' this camp in a state
ut war continuously for the last two
wetks and surrendered unconditional
ly to-day.
Dynamite is a born strategist, and
he needed no military training to dis
play his genius. I He came here two
weeks ago, with 200 other green mules
He had scarcely arrived when a gun
ner from the Flr»t Field Artillery tried
to rope him. The gunner is now in a
state of convalescence.'
Dynamite refused to stand hitched
—even to a post. Once they succeeded
In harnessing him to a supply wagon.
The wagon Is now gradually rotting
away in a neighboring creek. Dyna
mite then had the freedom of the camp,
till the arrival of the regular army in
spectors, who immediately ordered him
mustered out of service.
The difficulty was to get him entrain,
■ed. It took seven men four hours this
afternoon, to get a rope around his
body, and then get a turn around his
nose. Dynamite jerked his head and
felt the pull. He tried once more and
then docilely accepted the situation
Here is a tip for the horsehandlers
at the Sixtieth street yard of the Grand
Central:
Dynamite is in a C. & O. car, No
10.312. Be careful when you open the
door.
This Cinderella Gets
Damages From City
Cleveland, O.—"And Cinderella mar
ried the prince and they lived hanov
ever after."
But not so romantic was the de
nouement of the story enacted in Com
mon Pleas Court before Judge Phillips
after twelve Jurymen had spent the day
in gazing upon the shapely slipper of
another Cinderella. The Jurors decid
ed that the plaintiff was entitled to
$2,250 from the city because the slip
per had slipped on the pavement of
Euclid avenue and had permanently in
jured her.
The modern Cinderella Is Miss Helen
F. Barry, who sued the city for $15,000
damages, alleging that the glass discs
In the pavement where she fell were
raised so they caught the heel of the
slipper, tripping her.
