tack OF smallpox might be due to the
action of the sunlight With a view to
testing this theory the windows of the
rooms in which the patients were con-
fined were shaded by orange-colored
curtains
The results were not very satisfac-
tory, possibly because the experiment
was bunglingly done. The idea was
not given up. however, and lately some
tests have been made with red light,
which has a greater power than orange
light to exclude the suns rays. The
light was tried on several unvaccinated
children suffering from smallpox in a
German hospital, and the disease i'm
mediately took a favorable turn. AL
though the pits appeared, they did not
break, and finally disappeared, leaving
the skin perfectly smooth. There was
no secondary fever. According to DIR.
Feilberg. who conducted this test, the
essential point for the success of this
treatment is that 1t should be begun
during the early stages of the disease,
shortly after the pits or vesicles, have
appeared. If the seventh day has been
reached it is hardly possible to pre-
vent the pits from breaking and hence
becoming permanent. Another import
ant point is that the exclusion of the
chemical rays of daylight must be
complete and continued until the vesi-
.cles have quite dried up.

Dir. Fsulds Chlrges and the Ora nd Jury's
Rep rt Furnish the Theme

Stevensville, Jan. 26.-The usual quiet
of Sunday has not prevailed here to-
day. The community has been excited
for week and the report Of the grand
jury, which was printed in the Stan
dard to-day, while Il served to relieve
the anxiety OF the public, has created
fully as much excitement as prevailed
when the charges OF raud were first
made by Mr.. Faulds. There Is no at
tempt made 10 conceal the general sat
1sfaction which the report of the grand
jury gives TO the county. This is not
alone among the friends or the accused
officials. who have been completely ex-
onerated, but with the public at large.
While there has all along been warm
sympathy for the officials who were
thus falsely accused of raud. there has
been another sentiment freely express
ed: That the charges made by Mr..
Faulds had a more reaching effect than
ITS influence upon the men involved.
II reflected seriously upon the reputa-
dion of Ravalh county. There is gen.
orally rejoicing that the county's good
name has ben maintained and that the
grand jury found the charges false.

COULDN'T SEE THE JOKE.
Chairman Dingley WAS Puzzled Over a
Colleagues Business Chance.

From the Washington Post.
Dingley of Maine-a good man and a
deep thinker-has no capacity for humor.
Some of our best minds and most pro-
found philosophers are upholstered that
way. So Dingley is not alone. Dingley
was telling John Allen of the general
dullness of trade and the absolutely fiat
condition of business and commercial OPP
portunity for money making.
The question of profit making, said
Dingley has all but departed from the
business world. Men are now glad If the
chance presents itself to pay expenses
and hold their own"
"Oh, l don't know" said Allen, in his
grave, far-off way. and with that drawl
which would have warned anybody but
Dingley. II don't know as l can agree
with you entirely, Dingley. OF course,
I've but little capacity for business, and
ordinarily chance to make money

But even $50 thick are they lying about

capitol this morning a chance to make an
Investment which would pay full 20 per

DAYS As usual. though, l didn't have the
capital and had to decline. l couldn't in
vest i'm 1t. ps l didn't have the money.
However. l believe the chance is still
open. IL you care TO go in, Dingley."

Missoula Dogs Bark.

Mtssoula Dogs bffks
Missoula, Jan. 26.-People in the East
are beginning to know something about
Missoula. They read the Standard, so
they can't help IL. That the University
City is gaining notoriety in the effete re-
gion of the Atlantic shore is evidenced by
the following clipping from the Baltimore
American:
For several months the citizens OF
Missoula, Mont. have had their lives
made miserable by a horde of yelping and
swapping vagrant dogs. At last II be-
came a question whether the people or
the dogs should own the town and steps
were taken to abate the nuisance in
Enthusiastically Western way. The
board of trade was appointed commit
tee on the subject. The Mandolin club got
up a mass meeting. The Shakespeare
reading class is circulating anti-dog pc
titions. The mutual benefit societies have
complained that they are obliged to pay
many sick benefits to sick members who
have been bitten by dogs. The Thursday
Evening Wagner club has resolved that
the barking of the dogs is most unmusi-
cal and even the local branch OF the A.
p. A. is taking a hand in the fight. Alto
gether 1t looks as though the dogs of Mis-
soula would have to CO."

THIEVES AT THE OPERA.
Some of Them show Up Immao ulat Nv
Dressed and Escort Lovely Women.

From the New York Herald.
Strange as it may SEEM" said one
OF Chief O'Brien's new detectives, as
he lounged against pillar in front of
the Metropolitan opera house. New
York thieves of the higher class have
a weakness for grand opera, both for
business and pleasure You doubtless
remember when Inspector Mclaughlin
walked down the aisle two years ago
and tapped a woman on the shoulder.
She was a notorious thief and she fol-
lowed HIM without a word. Since then
several thieves have been arrested i'm
the lobby and around the entrance and
several have got past us and have sat
out the performance. Look at this. II
is a sample of the work done by the
opera house thieves"
The detective pulled from his pocket
a crumpled advertisement. 1t was as
follows:
IF blue kersey overcoat taken from
dress circle of Metropolitan opera
house Monday night is returned S25
will be paid and no questions asked"
Il was one OF the men detailed here
on the opening night" continued the
detective. Personally l hustled sew
eral thieves away; but as there was no
charge against them beyond their gen.
eral bad character they could not be
arrested.
After the opera was over l stood
Just at the door 10 watch the crowd
coming out. What was my surprise to
see one of the best known thieves in
New York come out with "A beautifully
dressed woman on his arm. Both
were i'm irreproachable evening dress.
She wore a long pink and ermine op-
era cloak and big diamonds, and his
crush hat was simply immense He
looked at me coolly, handed the wo-
man into a carriage and whirled away.
II saw him next day I'm Sixth avenue
and called TO him. What do you
want? he inquired. There is nothing
against me. Hasn't a man a right 10
enjoy himselfT I warned him against
enjoying himself around the Metropol-
itan opera house and let him go. There
are very many diamonds around the
Metropolitan. and they are a great
temptation to the average thief"
