THE SMALLPOX.
Eleven Cases Reported in tho Jail.

Eleven Casos Reported In tho jail.
Exclusive of the prisoner who had the
smallpox and recovered ard was dis
charged and tho one who died of the same
disease, there are eleven other prisoners
affected with either varioloid or SMALL
pox. OF these some are conva-
lescent, some convalescing and few
are in the earlier stages OF the DIS
ease. OF the thirteen cases above men
toned, there are only two now suffering
from we'll defined smallpox, though few
of the Others may develop into that dis
ease.
This morning the county commissioners
and the prison keeper were in conference
with DR.. Shirk. the prison physician, and
DR.. Reed, the consulting physician, lately
appointed by the prison inspectors. Both
physicians, after having made thorough
inspection Of the prison and the patients,
are of opinion that all that is necessary to
stamp out the disease speedily is to at
once have the diseased prisoners isolated
from the healthy ones. 1t was suggested
that an additional building to bs used for
a smallpox hospital be erected in tho
prison yard. Prison Keeper Burkholder
thought that if the prisoners who occupy
the lower story of the build
lug, kuOWu dS Ahii,
could be renewed, the upper room could
be used as hospital, and thus place
could'bs provided for the sufferers in
much less time than would be taken for
the erection of new building. After con-
sulta,ion with Judges Patterson and Liv
ingston, the commissioners agreed. to
adopt the plan suggested. Nearly all the
prisoners now in Bummers' hall have but
few days to serve, and the prison keeper
says he can provide quarters elsewhere for
the few who have longer sentences. 1t is
expected therefore that within very few
days the patients will be removed to Bum
mers' hall, which is we'll lighted and venti-
lated, and in all respects much better
fitted for hospital than tho prison.
In their examination of tho prison the
physicians found that the plumbing was
miserably constructed and the drainage
utterly inadequate for IN institution like
the Jail. DIR. Reed made several sugges-
tions and gave plans for the improvement
of the plumbing which will probably be
acted on by the commissioners and in
spectors.

The Shad Fisheries.
In consequence of the highness of tho
river, shad fishermen are meeting with
but poor success. The water is entirely
too high. A fow of these fish are still
being caught, but if the river continues
rising as it is now, few
days more and shad fishing will
close until the water recedes. This
year has been decidedly poor one for
Columbia fishermen. Luck has been dead
against them. When the water is low
enough to fish then it Is too cold, and
when it is warm enough it is too high.
Besides this shad have been very scarce
this year. The fishermen who use dip
nets instead of seines, are making the
most money Usually it is the reverse.
The largest "catch" made SO tar this
season was made at the battery near
Mud island, two hauls landing eighty ono
shad.
A Game of Baseball.
The first game of baseball played in
Columbia this year was played on the

between two picked mines. 1t took two
hours to play five innings, at the expira-
tioD of which the score was as follows ::
First nine, 1S; second nine, Is. The
reason of SO much time being consumed
was from the fact that when the ball was
knocked over Tho embankment it wOuld
take five to ten minutes to find it and
this is Columbia's Is baseball grounds
