A Sad Spectacle.

4 very sad sight was witnessed on the street in Hot Springs recently. A Mir. Hoffman and his wife, who live several miles from that city, went to town with their infant which was very ill They were in wagon and after they arrived the father went in search of doctor, while the mother remained in the wagon holding her babe in her arms. While the father was gone the infant died in it's mothers arms and when the father returned to take the little one to the doctor he was informed by the mother, who spoke between sobs, that their little one was dead To the bystanders the scene was a sad one indeed. The father of the dead child went to a dry goods store and pur- chased tiny shroud and they returned to their country home to bury it, the mother still holding her dead baby in her arms

Burned in His Store.

lamp exploded in the store of Small & Iyach at Wrightsville, 12 miles south east of Little Rock, recently. resulting In the death of Thos. J. Small. one of the proprietors, and the complete de- structlon of the store, including post office supplies, and also residence ad- Jolnlng. 1t is supposed that Small was carrying the lamp when it exploded Heroic efforts were made to rescue the doomed man, but of no avail, the flames spreading with such rapidity and fierce ness that nothing could stand against them. When the remains were recov- cred only the trunk remained intact, the head and limbs being burned off. The loss of property was complete. and will amount to 5000, with s3, 15O insur- ance
 There is suspicion on the part of certain persons that the death of Small was not due primarily to the explosion of lamp. It is reported that just pre- vious to the explosion, three pistol shots were heard in the store. The theory is that his death may have been the result of cunningly planned mur- der, but the evidence at hand is en- tirely inadequate to justify the predica- tion of such a serious charge. No one Is suspected.

To DETECT BACTERIA.
DR.. stone Solicits the Interest of
Local Physicians.

\ !
Health Commissioner Stone has mail
ed the following announcement or COM
munication to the practising physicians
of ST. Paul informing them that the
health department, having been equip
ped with a archaeological laboratory,
is now prepared to examine cultures
from all cases of suspected diphtheria
as well as sputum in cases of suspected
tuberculosis: y
I desire to inform you that there has
been established in connection with
this department a archaeological labo-
ratory and that we are now prepared
to examine cultures from all cases of
suspected diphtheria in order to es-
tablish the diagnosis. 1 would urge
upon you the necessity of submitting
cultures from ali cases with suspicious
looking sore threats since 1t Is now
definitely agreed upon by authorities
that certain diagnosis in many in
stances cannot be arrived at without
the aid of archaeological exami-
nation.
Hereafter the quarantine will be re-
gulated by a meteorological eXamf-
nation, if so desired, and as soon as
the throat Is found free from diph-
iberia bacilli, the patient and house
may be disinfected and the quarantine
raised providing such culture has been
made by representative from this
department. In all instances in which
such examination is not made. the
old rule of 80 days quarantine will be
rigidly enforced and in no case can the
quarantine be raised until this depart
ment Is satisfied by Its examination,
that such a procedure is safe.
Culture outfits may be had by apply
ing to this office from 8 to II a. M,
and to D. m,
I would also state that we are pre-
pared to make examination Of sputum
in cases Of suspected tuberculosis for
tubercle bacilli.n Sputum should be col
lected in a clean wide mouthed bottle,
and the results of the examination will
be made known as soon as possible.

CONSEQUENTLY CONCERT.
Successful Programme at the Park
CONGREGATIONAL Church.

The entertainment given by the
Johnson-S mily combination at the Park
Congregational church, Mackubin
street and Holly avenue, last evening,
was as delightful bit of parlor com
edy and drama as could be wished.
Both Miss Johnson and Mr. Smily are
versatile artists in their respective
lines and together they furnished a re-
fined programme, sparkling with mer-
riment yet sufficiently subdued by in
terspersing the pathetic and heroic to
effectively balance the selections.
Added interest is given the entertain
ment by reason of the fact that Miss
Johnson Is herself one of the Indian
race, whose history and character she
reveals In both verse and song. She ap-
pears on the platform in the dress Of
the Mohawk tribe and in the recital
of poems of her own composition, tells
the story Of Indian life with much
of the dramatic and finished elocution-
airy effects. sA.5-r
Mr.. SmiIy is thoroughly amusing in
several original musical monologues,
skits and sketches, which he rendered
in manner to call forth repeated en-
cores from the appreciative audience
