AFTER SMALLPOX.

Physician to SaItyille.

DR.. ]. B. Lindsey, secretary of the
State Board of Health. Nashville, ar
rived in Bristol Tuesday night and
spent short while with his friend,
DR.. N. t. Dulaaey.
Or. Lindsey was sent to this section
in behalf of the state to inquire into
the status of smallpox as it is reported
from southwest Virginia. He left on
No. 6 last night for Saltville, and will
investigate the reported cases.
His coming here is a precautionary
step on the part OF the State Board Of
Health. taken with the view of keep
Ing the disease out of the state il
possible.
DR. Lindsey talked freely to the re
porter on various subjects. He is wei
posted on all state affairs. He seems
to be especially interested IN the sub
ject Of a revision OF the state code
which he thinks is not suited to The
present condition of affairs.
He inquired as to whether Bristol
Tenn, had q local board OF health ant
was informed that it had not. He sale
that the law requires every town o
5000 population to have q local boarC
of health, which shall report monthly
to the state board. Here is a-require
ment which Bristol should comply
with without further delay. A goot

A Great Violinist.

Mr.. ]. B. Mcmillan is admired for
his superior skill with the violin
wherever he goes. Reporting an
entertainment recently given at the
Columbia College for women, Co
Iumbia paper says,among other things,
the following:
Mr.. McMillan's playing captivated
the audience at once. In purity of
tone and brilliancy of touch it particul-
arly excels, and in sympathy and
pathos he occasionally brings back
memories of Ole Bull. His own elegie
in E minor shows that we have among
us not only violinist but a composer
Of a very high order.
An exquisite finish to an evening
OF pure enjoyment was the song by
Miss Fulkerson with the violin obliga.
to by Mr.. Mcmillan. There has seldom
been anything more beautiful heard in
Columbia.
At the conclusion of the concert DR.
Atkinson spoke few words to the
audience to the effect that the music
department had been made more ex-
tensive and upon a higher plane than
ever and that he hoped the effort
made by the college in that direction
would be sustained by citizens OIL

GRESHAM AND HAWAII.

"The Secretary of State, carefully
examining and weighing all the facts
in the Hawaiian imbroglio, reaches the
only conclusion which these facts will
justify-that the revolution was not
the act of the people of Hawaii, and
was not even accomplished by the res
ident foreigners, but was due altogeth-
er TO the armed Intervention Of the
United States.
at was Minister Stevens, with the
aid OF the marines and sailors from
the Boston, that overturned the mon
archy and set up the provisional Gov
eminent, which never could have &C.
quired even a provisional authority or
recognition without such support. This
is the bald truth Of the situation.
"What is the duty OF an honorable
nation under such circumstances? To
perpetuate the wrongY To follow it
by another? To draw out altogether
and leave the Hawaiians to settle their
own affairs? Or to undo what was ill
adyisedly done and restore the Gov
eminent which existed before our rep
resentative procured its overthrow
Mr.. Gresham, viewing the question
from the broad standpoint or right
and justice, inclines evidently to the
last suggestion. What the Preeid, H.
thinks should bedone, he will prs ah.
ly make known in his message IL

thority brings about the condition thai
existed before there was any inteIfer
ence on the part of the United Stat |
authorities. This may be officially II
right course to pursue, but it will D.,
