Alleged SMALLPOX.

A gentleman who came down from
Bozeman last evening says that case of
smallpox developed itself yesterday
morning at boarding house called the
Bozeman House near the depot. Assoon
as the nature of the disease was apparent
the house vas quarantined and watch
man was detailed to see that none Of the
boarders-there were about eighte6n-
left the place to spread the infection.
Either through their desire or his own
inclination, the Waterman became too
drunk in the afternoon to attend to his
duties, and when the east-bound train
came along number Of men from the
infected house got on board and came
this way. 1t is said that some of them
got off at Livingston. We give this ac-
count as it was detailed to us, and if it be
true that persons lately exposed to small
pox infection are here in town it is a
matter calling for prompt and effective
measures on the part of our local author
tiles to prevent the appearance of the
disease The above is from the Living
ston Enterprise of yesterday evening. We
do not think that the editor Intentionally
desires to do our town harm, but has
been misinformed.-

Adam and Eve and That Apple.

How many apples did Adam and Eve
eat? Some say Eve 8 and Adam Pa
total of 10 only. Now we figure the
thing out far differently. Eve and
Adam s als2-tCtal 16.
And yet the above figures are entirely
wrong. If Eve and Adam 50, certainly
the total would be 50. Scientific men
however, ON the strenth Of the theory
that the antediluyians were race Of
giants, reason something like this: Eve
81 and Adam S2-total 163.
Wrong again what could be
clearer than, if Eve 81 and Adam S12
would not the total be 1913?
If Eve 31lst and Adam S12, would moi
the total be 1923?
believe the following to be fair So
luton: Eve S14 Adam, Adam S124 Eve
total 1888.
Still another calculation is as follows
Ii Eve Si4 Adam, Adam Sl242 oblive Eve
total S2,056. We think this, however,
not sufficient quantity. Torthough we
admit that Eve Sl4 Adam, Adam if he
SOsl242' keep Eve company-total $685.

All wrong. Eve, when she S1Sl2 many,
and probably she felt sorry for it, but

grief, Sl2. Therefore when Adam

Hence both ate 81 ,S96,S64 apples.

The Merry Masquerade.

Last night large audience gathered at
the skating rink to witness the masquer-
ade. The Bozeman silver corlret band
arrived about o'clock and soon the floor
was crowded with gay costumes and
merry skaters. There were many good
costumes, among which the CHRONICLE
boys, including the devil, were well made
up. Mr.. Fred Piper, however, enjoys the
praise of having most successfully dis
guised himself and caused more laughter
than any one on the floor. Miss Emma
Perkins was unknown by her most init
mate friends and was very prettily and
tastefully dressed. Altogether the even
ing was one Of pure enjoyment coupled
with healthful exercise. The proprietors
deserve the benefit they received last
night and we trust that the rink was
made more popular than ever.

Professor Wickes, of the Northern Pa

week. He is engaged in building rail
road about two mites long from near the
west end of the Bozeman tunnel to the
company's coal mines there. The coal
there is not nearly 50 good as at the Bull
Mountains, and the quantity is not nearly
so great, but in view of the enforced
economy of the directors, this branch
line will serve the purpose of supplying
coal until the Bull Mountain branch
shall have been built.-Biilings Posi-.

TUB EHrIRR STRUCTURE DESTROYED LOSSES
AND INsURANCE.

tub ENfiRk STRUCTURE DkSThOf BIZ V'o1S
AND INSURANCE.
|, A special from st. Paul, MIMI, dated
Yesterday, says Iamlin University, sittl-
aied near the Manitoba Short Line railroad,
about midway between Minneapolis and
ST. Paul, was DESTROYED by fire this morn
ing, entsiling loss OF about $4,000. on
which there was an insurance OF about
80, 900. The FIRE was discovered about $3.50
O'Clock by the students, who were going to
chapel. At that time the roof was all on
fire, and ~ all tho appliances at hand for
extinguishing the flames consisted OF few
barrels Of water and two Babeock fire-ex-
tinguishers, the building was practically at
the mercy OF the flames. Although the
students worked hard, the flames
gradually burned downward, until at
1 O'Clock nothing but the blacken-
ed aud crumbling walls remained.
The fire must have originated under
the roof from heat from the solid chimney,
or else on The top OF the roof from sparks
from tho chimney. The building, which
was OF stone and brick, was built in 1850,
and cost S55,0O0. There was basement,
three stories above it, aud Mansard rooi,
making il practically five-story building.
The entire interior was burned, and con-
siderable portion OF the walls fell in. None
OF the remainder can be utilized, and the
structure Is therefore total loss. The
Rev. i. T.. Chaffcc, ylce-president OF the
Rosrd of Trustees, and the Rev. Robert
Forbes, secretary. were in the Manitoba
train which passed the college as the nre
broke out. and stopped. They at once be-
gan TO establish order among the students
and succeeded admirably, after which
every one worked bard against great
odds. All OF the students escaped from
the building, but A. j. Sutton, OF Pres
ton, was overcome by work, and was re-
moved 10 the Ladies' Home, where he was
given every necessary attention. The con-
cents Of the building were nearly all saved,
but by being recklessly thrown from the
windows were greatly damaged. Some OF
the students who occupied rooms on the
upper floor lost nearly all OF their effects.
Professor Bradley. who is in Europe, lost
a large quantity OF goods, which were
stored in the building. A building to cost
100000 will at once be erected on the site
of the burned structure. The loss Is di-
Yided as follows: Cost OF buildings, Sj5,-
00O; fixtures, $500; furniture, &c, $4,000
On this there Is an insurance Of about S2C.-
900. The insurance companies interested
ere, as far us can be ascertained, rs follows
Etna, $500; st. Paul Fire aud Marine.
$1,000; Buffalo, German, $1,000; Peoples,
New York. $1,000; Fireman, Baltimore,
$500; Farregut. New York, S2,j00s Shoe

Through a friend from Stanly county
who was In the city yesterday we learned
the particulars OF a cold-bloOded murder
that occurred in the town OF BIG Lick on
last Saturday night. Mr.. Charles Cox, a
weil-known young man Of that place. and
a son OF Mr. Jesse Cox, the leading mcr-
chant OF Big Lick, was shot down in the
street by an assassin under the cover OF
darkness. Mr.. Cox WAS on the way from
his clearinghouse to the store, aud the
night was so dark that he could not see an
object five steps ahead OF him. Suddenly
he saw the lash OF pistol, and fen 20 the
ground, shot through the body. His cries
brought several neighbors TO his side. and
though they at once commenced search
Tor the man who fred The shot, thew were
unable 10 find single trace Of him. Mr.
Cox was carried 10 his boardmg.bouse
and DIR. Paul Barrier, CT Mount Pleasant

lN,w YOik Times


A most daring robbery was committed
In the Brooklyn post-oiIice, in Washing
ton street, about noon yesterday. At the
hour named Observation-Disclosures Charles
3. Morton went into his office, which is
on the second floor on the Washington
street side OF the building, to mako up his
cash account, preparatory to depositlng
the money received during the day in bank.
He had lust completed the sorting OF the
bills, and had placed all the packages in
his desk, when he was called into the
Money-Order Department to attend to
some business which occupied his at
tentiOn for few moments. William
II. Debevoise, the chief clerk, was the
only person in Colonel Morton's room
when Colonel Morton wentlntO the Money
Order Department. When the Assistant
Postmaster returned to his private Office he
noticed that the money on his desk had been
disturbed. lie Immediately turned TO
Debevoise and said: " Did you so near that
money while | was away" Debevoise
said he had not and. in answer TO further
questions, said he had not sent any OF it
into the Money-Order Department.
Colonel Morton then asked ii any per-
son had been seen in the Office during his
absence. The chief clerk replied that q
well uTcsStu StIaiiEtI HdV tnlSItu uilu III
quired about missing letter. Debeyolsc
could not give him the necessary informa.
ton. but sent him to the.depGrtment where
he could get it. The clerk hardly looked
mp from his desk and the stranger staid
only few minutes in the room. Colonel
Morton and Mr.. Dcbevoise then counted
the money over and found that g, 800 had
been taken away. There was originally
$4,000 on the desk. The Assistant
Postmaster had been about fifteen
minutes absent from the room. Postmas-
ter McLeer was informed OF the robbery
without delay, and at once went into the
First Precinct stston-hoCse. which adjoins
the post-olllce, and told the facts to Captain
Campbell. That officer, with the aid OF the
headquarters detectives, was ut work on
the case all day yesterday. Notwthstand-
ing that fact Acting superintendent VIII
marth denied last night that he knew any
thing OF the ease, and similar denial was
made at the First Precinct station.house.
