Building activity in this city continues about

is such that all outdoor work is brought to
stsndstiil The ordinary four seasons into
which the year is divided are but little re-

two seasons known to the building trades here,
namely the season whom outdoor work is pos
sible and the season when it is impossible.
Sometimes building operations can be carried
on during the greater part Of the year, but in
such case the winter must be known as an
open winter. Last year the weather did not
put stop to outdoor work for any length of
time. and during the season, which was, Their e.

How q Man Came to be Chief Surgeon,

ing it.

From the New York Tribune
"We had case of smallpox in our lower
camp" said the colonel, which gave us good
deal Of trouble, You see, there we're only six
OF us, and We did not want to lose any more
men than possible. We determined to send
the case to the upper camp, Ave miles away,
but the problem which worried us most was
who should 20 along as nurse
"'Bob,' the cook was q hard drinker and az
soon as he heard of the case he proceeded to
drown his cares in whisky. He was terribly
frightened at first, but the more he drank the
more resigned he became to circumstances.
"When Bob was hiking he could beat any
man in Colorado at Boosting and before long
he began to declare that smallpox had no ter
rors for him. In fact, he had nursed nineteen
patients at one time when every one else had
deserted them. He had brought them safely
through, too. In the end he gravely asserted
that he couldn't catch the smallpox anyway.
for he had already had it.
and nodded my head. We bundled the sick
man up carefully and put him in q wagon
Two hours later We had established hospital
at the upper camp, with the cook as chief sur
geon, physician and nurse. The cook, by the
way, was sleeping as peacefully as a child when
We left the hospital The next morning we
heard wild shouts and saw Bob tearing for the
lower camp. half dressed. We immediately e.
tablished shot gun quarantine.
:" Hold up, Bob,' one Of the boys shouted;
this camp is quarantined. You can't come
past the whistling post
:" But, say pleaded the frightened cook,
that man has the smallpox
"'Well. you volunteered to nurse him.
IY he screamed, incredulously.
Remember those nineteen patients You
nursed'
What nineteen patients?'
And then, you know, You had Il yourself

ave chased him back from tho post and
left some whisky and provisions for him on
the ground. We told him to come down every
evening at shutdown for Q new supply. and
we never let him come near the Camp.
He used regularly to come down and beg to
be allowed to come into camp, but the shotgun
policy was strictly maintained. Then he would
take up his whisky and provisions and shout
out to US that he would have every one Of us
hanged for deliberate murder
Ibid he catch the smallpox? No, nor did that
experience cure him of lying and Dragging.
He afterward boosted to people that be had
