A SMALLPOX Epidemic.

SHELL Rock, Ia, Feb. 12.-There is a
terrible epidemic of smallpox in the vi
cinity of Finchford, a little village near
Winslow, a station on the Burlington, &C.
dar Rapids q Northern railroad, about
seven miles nostheast of this place. The
disease was brought to the place by
woman named Newell, who had been in
Minneapolis taking care of daughter
who died with the same disease. She re-
turned to her home at Finchford while
she was sick with the disease in a
light form, and went to several neighbors'
houses and asked young girl to come
home with her and keep her company over
night. 1t was several days before any
quarantine was put on this Newell woman,
and the result is there are about ten genu-
inc cases of smallpox in the village, among
them being the only doctor at Finchford,
and the little girl who went to remain over
night at the Newell house. The authorities
have taken it in hand and doctor from
Cedar Falls has taken personal charge.

Scarlet Fever Epidemic.

LINCOLN, ILL.,, Feb. 12.-Scarlet fever
RACES at the feeble minded asylum here in
epidemic form. Yesterday ten cases were
reported, and there are symptoms of sew
eral new cases to-day. Two deaths have
occurred, the mortality being small on &C
count of the mildness of the disease.
Outside of the asylum only few cases
are known to exist. The disease
was communicated to the asylum inmates
by children who were transferred here
from the home of the friendless in Chicago.
The city and institute authorities are very
indignant over the action of the Chicago
people in sending the charges here. The
asylum has over 800 inmates, who can not
endure such diseases like people of sound
minds. A large mortality is inevitable
unless the disease can be checked.

The King and lho sllllcr.


Near Sans souci, the fagorile res.
idence Of Frederic the Great, there
was a mill, which muchinterferred
with the view from the palace,
One day, the King sent to inquire
what the owner would take for the
mill; and The unexpected reply
came that the miller would not sell
it for any money. The King, much
incensed, gave orders that the mill
should be pulled down. The miller
made no resistance, but folding his
arms, quietly remarked:
"Thc King may do this, but
there are laws in Prussia" And
he took legal proceedings, the re.
suit Of which was that the King
had to rebuild the mill, and to pay
a good sum of money besides in
compensation.
Although his Majesty was much
chagrined ut this end to the mat.
ter, he put the best face ho could
upon it, and turning to his court.
iers he remarked; 81 am glad to see
that there a'e just laws and up.
right judges in my kingdom
A sequel to this incidedt occur.

poverty, aud being az length quito
Nnable to keep on his business, he
wrote to the King of Prussia, re.
minding him Of the incident We
have just related, and stating that
if his Majesty felt SO disposed, he
should be very thankful, in his
present difficulty, to sell the mill.
The King wrote the following re.
ply with his own hand:
Ny DEAR NElGnBoR;-I cannot
allow you to sell the mill. 1t must
always be in your possession as
long as one member Of your family
exists, for it belongs to the history
of Prussia. regret, however, to
hear that you are in such straiten.

send you herewith $4,000, in the
hope that it may be Of some ser.
