SERIOUSLY ILL.-The many friends OF Jake
Span.ail will be deeply grieved 60 learn that
he is now lying a. the point of death at St
Mary's Hospital without hope Of recovery.
He was first taken i'll at Pataha city, where
he is = partner in large Touring mill, and
where Of late he has been residing. From
the time Of his arrival there until he left he
was in poor health and WAS brought here in
the hopes that with superior medical attend
ance he would revive ard be again the hearty
active Jake Spansail Of old, but It now seems
all effo,ts will prove fruitless and ne will be
called to mourn his departure.

ACT At OScE.-Once more We call the
attention Of our citizens and that honorable
body, the city council, to the necessity of \
thorough system of sewerage. Every year
Waila Walla is visited by various malarious
diseases which carry away many children.
and can be traced to no other cause than the
lack of suitable drainage. Diphtheria has
been rife in this city for q number Of years
and sorrow has visited many families in con-
sequence. This year that dread disease ty-
phoid fever has prevailed and many cases
have been reported as also have some deaths
Now every citizen is responsible for the deaths.
and they should act promptly and in unison IN
this matter and see that our city Is kept free
from filth. and that thorough system OF
drainage is inaugurated.
, 1880-10-23

SIcKSEss--We are reliably informed that
much Of the sickness, typhoid fever, etc, is
caused to great extent by the dampness pro
ceeding from too much irrigation. If our citi-
zens were occnsionly little more economical
with their water it would cause much less
neighborly i'll feeling and also less sickness.

That BEAR.-It was reported in
town one morning last week that the
track ota large bear had been seen
near Col. a. ID. Frcdricli's place, and
from recent signs that the animal was
certainly in that section. Some Of
the members Of our gun club and q
few other brave hearts resolved to
hunt Brnin down, and to this end
equipped themselves. and with their
dogs, started before dawn Of the next
day upon the chase. No hear could
bc found, however, and The huut was
n failure, except that the party were
thoroughly drcnched by the very
heavy rain tuat fell the same morn
ing. Gentlemen, it don't pay to hunt
bears during this lainy weather in
our county. They are too scarce,
and you won't be repaid for the
"buck ague" with which some OF the
party were attacked.
