Report of 4uditer of Ramsey County IL

A Laughabie Scare.

"Burleigh'' writes from the City to the
Boston Journal that one of our railroads
runs by the County Buildings. Prisoners,
paupers, and diseased are transported often
on the street cars to save expense. This
practice creates great indignation. So far.
all protests have been in vain. The other
day the conductor was collecting fares from
crowded load. A foreign person, poorly
dressed, and with an eruptive face, handed
UP his money. In answer to the question,
''Do you go through?' which means do
you 80 beyond the City line? he said, 81
have got de smallpox dor' ''Have you got
the small-poxT' said the astonished con-
ductor. ''Yes, l have got the smallpox
do" The passengers came to their feet ;
women screamed, and the excitement was
intense. "Come. Get out of this car: you
can't ride here said the official. The un.
fortunate made for the front platform. He
was hustled out Of the Car, and nearly pitched
headlong into the street. He recovered HIM
self and started for the front of the car
The driver took the car-hook and threatened
to brain him if he got on, The poor fellow
kept up with The horses. shouting: ''T'll
go. give me my smallpox, give me my pox,
give me my pox,' pointing to a small two
foot square chest standing on end behind
the driver. The mystery was explained
The honest German wanted to pay for his
small COX on the car as well as his own fare.
The conductor apologized, and a seat was
o.-:el to the man. Bat he Lad had enough
OF ti.as company. He refused all invitations
to ride, shouldered his smallpox" and
trudged on foot to the Aims House.

 ED. ENTERPRISE: In relation to the matter of fees collected by His Royal Highness, John Miller, J. P, which came up this term of court, the facts are these: I was called before the grand jury. and was asked, ''what money was paid in for the arrest of Bocha and Lewis2" rez piled, fifteen dollars (S15J. ten by B6-. cha and five by Lewis" They then asked, Chow much of this did you receive as feesl" Unanswered, "S4. 4O." They asked, twas warrant sworn out for the alrssts of eitherl" l replied, 'I did not ixliow,' as arrested them during the affraY and took them before Mir Miller" There were some witnesses examined, and I sad4 2 init that my return reads $7, but this is only one instance of many, where I have rendered MT. Miller pecuniary Assistance by allowing him to keep small sunls of fees which were my due. He will, per haps, remember that he owes me for one item, $20, which paid for him at the Guindani sale, and this has been going on for the past two or three years, till the amounts aggregate something worth hav- ing. These personal matters would never. have been made public, but for Mt. Miller's uncalled-for remarks concerning me and my office in the last issue of your paper. J. P GABRIEL.

This gentleman died at his residence in
this city, on Sunday morning last, after an
illness of about one week, aged a years.
DR.. Billingslea was so well and favorably
known in this community that anything be-
yond short sketch of his life would seem
superauous:
James Levin Billiagslea was born in Abb
ingdon, Hartford county, Nd, October "a,
1904. His fathers name was James Bill
lingslea and his mothers Elizabeth Mat
thews. DIR. Billingslea received classical
education mainly at Belair Academy, after
which he entered st. Mary's College, Balti-
MORE, but did not graduate. lie began the
study of medicine under the direction OF Or.
Ezra Gillingham, in that city. DR.. Gllling-
ham died shortly after and was succeeded by
DR.. John NJ. Rowland, with whom he re-
manned until he was graduated by the UNI
versity of MARYLAND in 1927. A short time
after receiving his diploma he settled IN
Uniontown, then in Frederick county, where
he successfully practiced until the spring OF
lS48, when he removed to Baltimore city, and
entered the wholesale drug bushes. In ls49
he moved to his farm in Long Green Valley,
IIth district Baltimore county, and was &C
lively engaged in the practice OF medicine
and farming until 1860, when he removed to
Westminster. In politics he was always an
ti-Democratic. In 1865 he was elected to
the State Senate by the Republicans, his OPP
nent being Col. John K. Lopgwell. DIR. Bill
lingslea leaves a widow, his second wife, and
five children BY his first wife, there being
none bv his last wife. His first wife was
Miss Susan Haines, of Wakefield, and his
second Miss Elizabeth Cover, of Double
Pine Creek. As a physician he enjoyed
the respect and esteem of all, and long
after he gave up active practice many ofthose
who had been his patients desired his assistance
in their hour of need. He was kind and alta
BILE in his manners and was truly gentleman
ofthe old school.
The remains were inferred in Greenmount
