repeated and continued sales of the article
everywhere are the best evidence of its real
merits. Letters and Testimonials from every

mittee on levees and improvement of the
Mississippi shall be changed to tho CON-
mittee on improvements Of the Mississippi,
and that hereafter all subjects relative to
the improvement of the Missippl shall be
referred to that committee.
The existing rule limits the jurisdiction
of the committee to subjects relating to
levees. While the proposed modification
does not give the committee authority to
take charge of appropriations, yet it is a
step in advance.
WASHINGTON, Feb, 4.--The house com
mittee OF rules this morning agreed to an
amendment to the rules changing the name
OF the committee on levees and Mississippi
river to the committee on improvement of
that river, and to add two more members to
the committee. tits generally understood
the new members will be appointed from
the states north of the Ohio river. The
members of congress from the Mississippi
valley are verysmuch disappointed'with the
action of the committee on rules. They
wanted the committee to be empowered to
report all appropriations for the Mississippi.
The members of the Mississippi commit.
tee say they are determined to continue the
fight for power over appropriations for the
Mississippi river.
Mr.. j. r. Thomas finger seems to be
plainly visible in these persistent efforts to
increase the powers of the committee of
which he is chairman, and it appears that
his efforts will be ultimately crowned with
success. That they may be is the wish of
his constituents.

street and Washington avenue, fronting on
the latter. 1t was evident that the fire had
been at work some time inside Of the build
ing, for it burst forth in great volumes be-
fore the fire department arrived, and caught
the roof of two story frame building on
the corner. Within few minutes after,
the streets were alive with people, all the
engines in the city were on their way to
the scene of the conhagratipn, and while
the fire men were removing distractions
and getting water, others we're engaged in
removing what they could in the form of
household goods from out of the blazing
buildings. The fire men did noble work,
although the fire had made much Roadway
before they arrived and the burning houses
were surrounded on all sides by
other frame houses, all as dry as could be,
they succeeded in combining the flames to
the two buildings originally attacked. 1t
took three or four hours of hard work,
however to get control of and finally ex.
tinguish the fire. Citizens succeeded in
saving much valuable furniture, clothing,
ETC.; but there was also much which, owing
to the Roadway gained by the flames, could
not be saved and was consequently con-
sumed.

and the building was insured in the "Un-

The widespread prevalence OF the
smallpox aud the probability that the dis,
ease will not abate materially until the
approach Of warm weather, make the sub.
iect of vaccination one of vital Importance
to individuals and communities. Notwith-
standing the prejudice, which exists in the
minds of many people, against vaccination,
experience has shown that it is almost a
sure protection against the dreaded disease,
if properly renewed. Sometimes in many
cases indeed, well defined vaccination
"lasts life time" and no subsequent in
PRODUCTION of virus into the system, from
the point of the doctors knife on the tip
of the ivory "point," be it repeated never
so many times, will stake" A person who
has had such an experience, may feel quite
as safe from smallpox contagion as one
who has had the genuine disease itself. In
other instances, the protective influence of
vaccination becomes exhausted in greater
or less number Of years, and in such cases
il becomes necessary to renew the preventive
measure every five or six years. Even in
eases where vaccination, after the lapse of
years, has become in some measure null,
attacks of smallpox are generally mild,
and only I'M rare cases are they fatal.
Tables made up Of statistics gathered from
various parts of the world show that out Of
every one hundred cases Of smallpox oc.
curing after vaccination the percentage of
deaths was only 1913 while out of every one
hundred cases of smallpox succeeding
small pox therercentage Of deaths was l5.7.
1t would seem that even the most extreme
prejudice against vaccination wonld melt
away before this convincing evidence that
it is even better protection against the
smallpox than is smallpox itself.

The much talked of prize fight be.
tween Ryan and Sullivan takes place near
New Orleans some time to-day. 1t is ex-
pected that this will be the most scientific,
the most desperate battle that has ever
taken place, either in Europe or America.
Therefore our people, who are generally
known to be wonderfully, even painfully,
moral people would be pardoned, we're
they TO gamble little upon this particular
occasion. But true to theiL reputation for
morality, the people Of Cairo do not even
gamble to any extent even upon this aus
picious occasion. Very few bets have been
made and these, unlike those bets in eastern
cities, are mostly in favor of Sullivan. But
then Ryan is Brooklyn man, and has, in
his day, defeated in the prize ring the
hardest hitters in the milling profession,
including the Enghshman, Joe Goss, and
the Irish giant, Jimmy Elliott. He pound.
ed Elliott all to pieces a year ago. Ryan is
brother of noted Brooklyn alderman
and has, himself, figured in ward politics in
that city. On the other hand, Sullivan is
young jun. He has had little or no exper-
fence in the ring, but has shown wonderful
ability as boxer and is as strong as lion,
and as quick as a cat in his movements.
The betting IN eastern cities is slightly in
favor of Ryan, but in Chicago it is about
even. Sullivan is quite popular with the
Chicago sports, though his home is in Bos-
ton, and he declares that Ryan will fight
harder and fight longer than he has ever
fought before, if the New Workers succeed
in downing his Chicago friends.

Lineally it stands about half a mile from

miles. But if the town continues to grow
