The week ending Saturday was an
important one in Judge Bolllngers
court, as several cases OF state inter-
est were up for trial. The. first case
On the docket was the state vs.. j..
wagner, who was alleged to nave
stolen steer from John Duilea, an
account of which appeared in the STAN
dard at the time. From evidence pro-
duced 1t appeared that the defendant
had bought So head of steers on the
South Boulder and drove them through
Silver Star, where the steer in ques-
ton got in the herd and was soon
cut out, but afterwards went back
without the defendant knowing 1t. The
herd was driven towards Dillon, where
the defendant was placed under arrest
by Constable Polinger on the charge
OF grand larceny sworn to by John
Dullea, owner of the steer. County At
torney M. M. Duncan prosecuted the
case and w. s. Barbour and w. b. Os-
bourn appeared for the defendant

the witnesses for the defense were Otto

case lasted nearly two days and termi-
mated in the defendant being dis
charged. In the case of the state and
Ike Hanson on the charge of embez-
element, Mr. Hanson was discharged
and the complaining witness, Fred
Feilka, was assessed the costs w. b.

IT TAKES IN EVERY ONE
, Ali the Citizens of Butte Must Be
Vaccinated.
GENERAL ORDER ISSUED
a Thorough Canvass Will Be Made to
See That the Law Has Been Com
Piled With-Disease Must
Be Stamped Out.

DR.. Alexander, city health officer,
made his order yesterday for the en-
forcement of compulsory vaccination
and after next Tuesday the refusal of
request from minion of the law TO
& roll up your sleeve will cost just S. per
refusal. 1t was originally the lnten-
ton of the health officer to enforce
compulsory vaccination only in the
public lodging houses and hotels of the
city, but owing to the increasing cold
weather, with the steady spread of
smallpox, DR.. Alexander, who is now
the sole judge of what is best for the
community in this regard, has come
to the conclusion that the only effec-
tive way of stamping out the disease
is to require every person to be vac
cinated unless they have been vacci-
mated during the present trouble or
during recent years.
thorough canvass of the entire
city is to be made under the direction
of DR.. Alexander. and any person who
cannot furnish evidence of having been
vaccinated within the last five years
will be required to be at once. Citi-
zens are given till next Tuesday to
comply with the order, and on that
NdS tIe CANVASS Will Sthll LIZ. Alex
ander's order reads as follows:
Notice is hereby given that on and
after Tuesday. Dec. 10, 1899, compul-
sorry vaccination will be in force. and
any policeman or other person or per-
sons authorized by the board of health
of the city of Butte may require any
person to exhibit evidence of success
full vaccination, and upon refusal to
exhibit the foregoing he shall be liable
to arrest under the provisions of sec
ton II of ordinance 459. which says:
(" The health officer shall also have
the right to require all persons not al
ready vaccinated to be vaccinated and
any person refusing shall be liable to
a fine of S., provided it shall be the
duty of the health officer to provide
for the vaccination of such persons as
are unable to pay for the same at the
expense of the city,
"The blocks, lodging. building and
business houses will first be visited.
The limit Of time allowed to have
elapsed since last vaccination will be
five years. The term poor shall be
interpreted to mean very destitute per-
sons, who must nave with them a GER
Tificate to that effect signed by a re-
putable citizen.
This action is made necessary by
the alarming spread of smallpox in
this community, and now seems the
only measure adequate to eradicate it
from our midst, and it is to be hoped
that the public will cooperate With
the authorities to the end intended.

Special Correspondence of the Standard.
Twin Bridges, Dec. 11.-Rev. A. K.
Baird, synodical missionary for the
Presbyterian Society of Montana held
services last Sabbath here. He came
over from Helena and goes from here
to Miles City. He expressed himself
as follows to the Standard man rela-
tive to Twin Bridges and Presbyterian
matters:
Il have visited Twin Bridges several
times, but not for the last three years.
Yes, I notice great improvements,
amounting almost to a transformation.
1 scarcely knew the place returning af-
ter an absence Of over three years.
You have a number of fine new
business blocks and your stores seem
to carry large stocks and to be doing
a heavy business. With the railroad,
smelter and wide-awake, citizens, a fine
farming and stock valley. and the sur
rounding mountains full of the pre-
cious metals, just beginning to be de-
veloped you surely have a very prom
Using future before you; more SO than
any young growing town I know of in
the state.

tana is divided into three presbyteries

meet twice year, in spring and fall
and the synod meets annually in Oc-
tober. l am elected by the synod to
look after the smaller churches Of the
synod that receive aid from our mis-
sion board in New York.
I'VE have SO organized churches in
the synod and a number of outside sta
tons. Seven of these churches are
self-supporting and 80 receive more or
less aid in sustaining their work. Thir-
ty-four of our SO churches have houses
of worship and - Of them parsonages.
We have &c ministers engaged in the
active work and a membership of
1900"
The doctor was asked if the churches
were in good condition, and he replied:
Yes, our churches are in fairly good
condition and all well and ably man
aged. Three are at present vacant,
which we hope soon to supply. There
is progress being made in all parts of
the staS; not what we would like to
see, but still cheering on the whole.
In the last year we have organized
four new churches, built one church
edif1ce and three parsonages.
Il believe all the denomina lions are
fairly prosperous in Montana and the
very best Of feeling exists among them
as far as I know. In the six years of
my work In the state there has never
been any unseemly rivalry, or serious
misunderstanding even. In few cases
there has appeared to be overchurch-

the work established. We have also
in the state some two or three Indian
churches: also a fine college property

Speaking with the doctor last even
ing, he said:
Smallpox has gained such a foot
hold now and so many people have
been exposed that I cannot see any
way of stamping it out except by re-
curing every one to be vaccinated. OF
course all or most of the cases up to
the last few days have been of very
mild form, but as the weather gets
colder the new cases developing are
becoming more severe, and in my juds-
ment it is only. a matter of time before
the type of the disease becomes malig-
nant If this order is not carried out. |
have made it solely for the public good,
and l sincerely hope and trust the peo-
pie Will SO regard my motive and lend
every assistance possible to make the
order effective"
Dr. II. H. Hanson for the failure to
report the case of Charles McCants,
Dr. Alexander yesterday took three
more physicians to see McCants TO as
certain their opinion of his ailment.
All three pronounced the case small
pox. DR.. Hansons case is to be trled
in the police court to-day. and 1t 1s
expected to be very interesting.
Two more cases We're reported to DR..
Monroe yesterday and third is sup
posed to be secreted somewhere in
Meaderville. The latest victims are

was taken Wednesday. making the
third case that has occurred in the
family. and w. A. White. resident of
silver Bow. Both We're quarantined at
their homes.
The case supposed to be secreted at
Meaderville was reported to DR.. Mon
roe yesterday, and he put in several
hours searching in the locality in which
it was said to be, but he could not
find the case. He heard so much about
ii. however. that he felt sure it was
not a false rnnor. and that a case
exists somewhere in Meaderville. Ee
proposes to find it to-day if he has to
break in every door in Meaderville.
At midnight James Coyle, a miner,
was found on the street with a well-de-
veloped case of smallpox. He has been
working in one of the mines right along,
and had no idea there was anything
serious the matter with him. He was
about the streets up to midnight and
happening to come across DR.. Cayley,
that physician had his atten-
ton attracted to the man by the
eruptions on his face. He called officer
Rininger, who took Coyle into Jail al
ley and held him there till DR.. Mon
roe could arrive. The case was at once
pronounced smallpox, and Coyle Will
be sent to the pest house to-day. From
the fact that Coyle has worked among
his fellow miners every day and came
in contact with great many people
last night and at other times, he has
undoubtedly exposed a great many.
DR.. Monroe had his attention called to
still another case last night which ior.
Cayley thought was smallpox. The
PERSONS name is st. Jaque. DR.. Cayley
saw him early in the evening and sent
word to Dr. Monroe, who went at once
to ST. Jaques place of residence, in
Arizona street. but in the meantime he
had skipped and he was not found
again last night.

RAzoRBAck HAMS IN DEMAND.

lone of the best and apparently not
the least appreciated of the many inn
portant food products which America
sends to England and France is the cell
ebrated ,'Smithfield or 'razorback' ham,
for about $4,000 of such hams are an
nually shipped to those two countries
from this city," said leading exporter
of provisions. In England, where the
domestic hams have tendency to be
fat and coarse, our Smithfield hams
have among connoisseurs a very high
reputation for leanness and great deli
cacy Of flavor, both of which qualities
are not thought to be excelled by even
the famous Westphalian hams of Ger
many AS the British consumer is will
ing to pay a fancy price for the pro-
duct, some of our choicest 'raZorbacks'
are exported to John Bulls markets.
1.-THE name 'razorback' is derived from
a small town on Pagan creek, near Nor
folk Va, where some 100 years ago the
hams were first cured by man named
Todd of Smithfield The animal which
produces the Smithfield ham is a semi
wild hog that is found on the mountains
of Virginia, kentucky and Tennessee.
The hog peculiar to these regions is
long-nosed, slabsided and has unusually
long ears. Tt is not a prepossessing ami
NAL, but when properly fed it supplies
ham that is unexcelled anywhere IN
the world.
Much Of the fine flavor which is
characteristic Of these hams Is largely
due to the care that is exercised by the
farmers in feeding the hogs. In sum-
mer the young 'razorback' is allowed
to run Wild in the woods and his meat
thereby gains a gamy flavor by fall,
when he is turned into a field from
which crops have been gathered in Or
der to fatten. In the district which
produces the most Smithfied hams
there are large quantities of sweet po-
tatoes and peanuts grown
Both these foods fatten the animal
with astonishing rapidity, but the fat
is still soft. So the next step is to pen
the hog up and give him corn and
plenty of clear water With this diet
the animals flesh hardens quickly to
the desired extent and he is then ready
to kill. The curing is done with Liver
pool salt and saltpeter, after which the
hams are washed clean and slowly
smoked for 40 days over green hickory
or red oak wood. Many farmers raise
the hogs, but few cure them. They are
sold to skillful curers, who supply the
market"

junction Suit.
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
Alleged That Sutten Violated an In.
junction Issued by Judge Clancy.
Several Other Matters
Heard

A contempt proceeding in an injunc-
ton suit was begun in the district
court yesterday. The suit is that of
James H. Maloney ct al. against Silas
F. King ct al, and the proceeding is
against Wakeman Sutten, one of the
defendants. An order to show cause

that the defendants in the suit were
enjoined and restrained from mining,
extracting and taking away or con-
verting to their own use any ores, rock
or mineral from a certain portion of
the Plymouth lode claim, and that the
defendant, Sutten, by himself and his
workmen, servants and employees, en-
tered into the portion of the lode COW
cred by the injunction, and ran a drift
and made a certain upraise and broke
certain rock therein, and carried the
Sdue away, anu IneT3Dy violated Lne
injunction order of the court.
In the case of George W. Andrews

PENDANT, Nixon, yesterday filed his sep
arate answer in the district court de-
nying all the allegations of the COM

addition of Butte, owned by Brogan
and Dougherty in common, be ordered,

purpose if necessary and a mortgage
on it for $1,000 be satisfied.
The defendant in the case of the Bee
Hive company against Ellen Byrne
yesterday filed a demurrer in the> dis
trict court to the plaintiffs complaint,
alleging the insufficiency of the facts
alleged in the complaint. the uncer-
tainty of certain matters and the nom
joinder of parties.
Judge Lindsay's court is still occu-
pied with the trial of the suit of John
O'Rourke against Mary Schultz. Yes
terday was consumed taking evidence.
A motion was made by the defendant
for a non-suit when the plaintiffs evil
dence was all in. 1t was overruled by
the court. The defendant, Mrs. Schultz,
shed tears at one point in the proceed
ings when witness testified that her
sister. Fanny MetusevitZ, had told him
that she had given Mrs. Schultz $1,000
