The snsIIp,x Patients,

Ttetwo children having the small
pox, accompanied by their mother,
were taken to the hospital on Monday
afternoon. Mrs. Smith and her chill
dren were vaocinated, and her house
was disinfscted. The article in Mon-
days issue conveyed the idea that DR..
Brown did not know that 1t was case
of smallpox, which he was Summoned
to attend. Such was not the ease.
He was fully aware Of the nature OF
the disease and merely called in DR..
Draper to consult him on the question
of removal. DR.. Brown did not attend
the sick children until Monday
morning. 1t was DR.. Curtis who was
summoned on Sunday, but then there
were no evidences Of the disease.

tohavs certain marks placedonthem and
be dressed similar to that worn by the

can tell 1t that the improvements made have
added millions to the wealth of the region,
and the best engineers In the country have
given assurances that the reservoir plan is
wholly practicable, comparatively ine1pen-
sive, and would result in incalculable benefit.
But perhaps the Tribune is better qualifie j
to Judge of these things than those who know
more about them. The Tribune, by reason
of Mr.. Pounds success, seeks to enlist bis
services on behalf of the chimerical idea OF
building ship canal from Chicago to the
Mississippi river. Several millions have
already been expended in the work, which
has been in progress for more than twenty
years, and the net result is ditch over
which an agile man may leap with ease, with
only water sufficient to float light-draught
