There II NO Disgusting. or any desire
TO disguise. the fact that smallpox IL
very prevalent at the present time in
Gold Hill. Its presence has BEEN more
than suspected for several days past. but
only within the last two days has the
matter been squarsly decided BY the I'M
mis,akabls breaking out Of some patients
and the death Of one. Judging from its
affects the disease II Of . virulsnt and
fatal type. Quite q number Of persons
have been exhibiting symptoms OF the
disease for the last few days, and there
IL little doubt that the daily report Of
developed cases will Be constantly In
creased. The News most certainly has
mot been an alarmist In this matter and
10 not inclined to DO. II has been in
possession Of information for more than
.. week past. inducing the belief that
smallpox VA abroad in our midst. and
trscssbls directly to the Indians. yet
deferred to the opinions Of medical men
or the Comstock and the vehement
assertions Of the Indians themselves.
One physician gives Il u his opinion
that none Of the present cases Of the dis
ease In this town resulted from the In.
dams. In fact they have no smallpox
among them. Piutes themselves, how
ever. say that they have. and their
saesrnsss fer vaccination. together
with other evidences Of their " 90

scattered. and keeping a. clear Of

they know how. and unless they now
get . fresh supply from tho whites they
will soon b al right again.

now have to fear in this matter. but our
own people. The dread disease 10 among

possible must DO done to prevent its

With proper attention to the sewers.
both public and private, essspools and
other fruitful sources OF disease. the
adoption OF simple d~isinfectants. and.
above all. regular habits and strict care
OF personal health. the disease may be
avoided and allowed to work itself out.

Mist0Ok the Signal.

A wELL-KNOwN engineer on the u. p.
who has q slight impeachment in his
speech, had an interview a few DAYS
since with his Division Superintendent,
the nature Of which gradually leaked
out and became q source of considers
BILE fun for the boys. The story coca
that on q recent run his engine had q
collision with a COW, resulting disas-
trously to the animal in question. BY q
rule OF the railroad company such acct
dents must be reported BY the engineer
and conductor in writing, and for some
reason the engineer forgot his duty on
this occasion, until he was summoned
before the railroad magnate for private
investigation.
"Mr. -" said the Superintendent.
" how is it that you failed to report the
killing OF COW on your run Of such
dateP"
81 d-d-d-d-don't remember any
su-s-s-s-such accident" replied the
knight of the foot-board, scratching his
head thoughtfully.
"Well. you certainly must have killed
. cow on that run, for It was reported in
due form by the CONDUCTOR" insisted
the Superintendent.
"N.n-n-no, / d.d-d-didn't," said the
engineer.
" Now just think moment and see II
you can't remember it," said the per-
,istent interrogation.
"No, I ki-ki-can't remember ki-ki-kill-
ing any c-cow. / dido remember
Notwithstanding one, b-b-but I looked

In 1869 Johannis Swammerdam wrote
a treatise upon insects, in which he de-
clared that he could show all the parts
of the butterfly in q caterpillar and could
make the change Of the caterpillar pro-
coed slowly, so that he could produce .
a creature half butterfly and half cater.

in the presence of the Duke Of Tuscany.
SHIP RAILROADS have q precedent in
Germany, where vessels Of sixty tons
capacity are carried overland from tho
upper to the lower part of the Elbing-
Obetland Canal, in West Prussia. This
ship railroad has been in successful
operation for over sixteen years, but
when the idea was first preached 1t was
ridiculed by everybody. Even then,
however, there had been aprecedent for
the scheme in road over our Allegheny
range, on which four-ton canal-boats
were carried.
A LECTURE by DR.. o. j. Lodge, deliv-
Grey at the London Institution, shows In
a very ineligible way the relation be-
tween electricity and light. The lecture
was for the most part expository, and
traced generally the steps by which
Clerk Maxwell arrived mt the almost GER
tain conclusion that light Is an electro
magnetic disturbance, with some OF the
startling results which that statement
implies. A prediction of what seems
already theoretically possible, and may
be soon practically accomplished, was
advanced by DIR. Lodge-the transmits
sion of views and pictures by means OF
the electric wire.

in order to escape a passing cab. left
hold of her fathers hand, and, in
jumping on to the pavement, fell down
q large drain hole which had been
opened for the purpose of shooting the
snow into the sewers. Help was quick
ly procured, and several firemen and
workmen descended, on the hopeless
errand of endeavoring to save the poor
child. The flooded state of the sew.

BILE, and as yet the bereaved parents
have not even had the sad satisfaction
Of seeing the body recovered.

The Congressional Committee of the
National Greenback party has issued an ad-
dress to the people Of the United States. The
national banks and railroad and telegraph
companies as at present controlled are de-
clared to be inimical to the rights Of the peo-
pie, and no redress for existing grievances
can be looked for from either of the old par
ties. The Committee therefore earnestly
advises the formation Of clubs in every city,
village and town in the United States, with
view to a thorough organization and
final triumph of the National party.
Thomas j. Durant, Lee CrandalI, Edward
Daniels and Eperitus Howe, members Of the
Executive Committee of the Greenback Con-
gressfonal Committee, have addressed let
ter to Thompson H. Murch, Chairman Of the
committee, in which they decline to attend
the meeting called by Murch In New York.
They also inform him his resignation as
Chairman Of the committee is accepted, and
they will cali the entire National Committee
together soon to elect ais successor.
