Rev. A. n. Cummings, OF The Baptist

at Sharp,s school house, seven miles
south OF Fort Jones, with great success,
fourteen persons having already been con-

SCARLET FEVER.
This disease is still quite severe in
Scott Valley, eliminating in two deaths
and two more serious cases. Every effort
and precaution is extended to save the
little ones from this dread disease. which
seems to create as great havoc with them
as the small pox.
CHILD INJURED.
James Clarkson's little girl Mary,
about years of age, was upset from her
little buggy while being drawn by her
two little brothers, last Monday, and had
her collar bone broken, but she is now
fast recovering under the attention of DR..
! Mooers.
SMALL POX.
There is but one case Of small pox in
the Hungry Creek neighborhood, and he
is down on the klamath away from any
settlement. The patient is not consid-
clcu dt ldteSC dCCOCUtS ne
is nephew of Chris. Aaroe, and caught
the disease from exposure to the person
who died Of it on Hungry Greek couple
of weeks ago.
QUARANTINE.
This establishment had five boarders
last Wednesday night, and two the night
before. A man is employed to attend
those who remain there, and stops there
altogether for that purpose The Marshal
is generally informed by telegraph of all
corners from inf cted districts, and after
changing his clothing in barn this side
OF the quarantine, goes out to stop pas
sengers from Jacksonville, and detain
them at the quarantine. They can leave
the next morning if going through
Yreka, but if intending to stop at Yreka
must remain 5 days at quarantine.
HEALTH.
Yreka and vicinity has never been so
healthy for many years as this winter
there are no very sick either of adults or
children, and unless we are visited with
the pestilence of small pox, which prevails
north of US, the chances are good for a
continuation of the blessing!
IMPROVEMENTS
| Main street below the Gas Works, is
being improved so as to do away with
mud holes, by the digging of cutters on
each side, and leveling the centre.
The following paragraph is from the
Shasta (Cal.) Courier:
4 well-known citizen Of an adjoining
county, Trinity, under middle age, sur
| rounded with young ana interesting
| family, but who has been for some time
afflicted with insanity ofso mild form as
not to heretofore alarm his friends sufi-
cid to-justify his confinement, con-
| cluded TO unsex himself. Having worked
himself into the conviction that the Cto
him) obnoxious organs were the sole
cause of his sickness and troubles, and
| being an adept at the operation on infe-
rior animals, he, on tho 10th day of De-
cember, performed the operation on him
self, and with so much skill and success
that DR.. Pelham of this place, who was
| called to his assistance, considers his
recovery as certain. He is now out of
danger.
