SMALLPOX CASE CORALLtD
Board Takes Precautions to Hinder
Spreading Of Disease.

From Mondays daily.
The special meeting which
was called, consequent to a
call of his Honor Mayor Wax
for this morning, convened at
the office of Judge Hartman
to consider the question of the
fact that there was a case of
smallpox reported in the city.
AS told elsewhere, there was
a special meeting for this spe-
cific purpose on Saturday
night and it was then decided
that three physicians be ap.
pointed to make an examina-
ton and report, which was &C.
cordingly done and the follow
ing was the decision of the
physicians:
Hon. Henry Wax, Mayor
of the Village of Grangeville.

submit the following: One

The following aldermen
were present: Wax, Sher.
win, Sweet and Brown. After
stating the case fully the May.
or asked the council: "Well,
gentlemen, what action do you
propose taking?" Alderman
Brown then made several val.
liable suggestions concerning
a nurse, and Chief of Police
Johnson was called in to ascer-
tain what had been done rela.
tive to obtaining one, and he
reported that there were two
applicants for the position, one
of whom had considerable ex-
periencesand the other, though
not having had experience, had
been stricken with the disease
and recovered. After consid.
cradle argument pro and con,
it was decided that the pro-
fessional nurse, named Nc
Cune, be engaged. Then the
question of the liability of the
county to bear the expense
was raised and County Attor.
ney Scales appeared before the
and stated the posi-.
ton of the county from a legal
point of view, showing that
lntil the county physician, DR..
Bibby, called a special meet.
ng of the county commission.
ers, who could only meet as
board of health, nothing could
De done; and even in that
event it was hardly possible
hat the county could be made
o bear any of the expense,
,ut in the event of the disease
becoming infectious, then very
the county would
axe the necessary steps. City
Attorney Griffith was then or.
Tered to quarantine the sec.
ion in which the case was.
lud all people were ordered
lot to attempt to approach the
'est house, and the brother of
he sick man, who has been in
attendance on the patient, was
'rdered not to leave the house.

A case that has been pend.
ing in Bavaria for 900 years
has just been decided in the
highest court at Munich. The
question under litigation was
the title to a forest claimed by
Baron Won Thuemgen from
the village of Burgsinn. The
village won and the baron, in
addition to losing the forest
must pay the costs.
1t is the belief of some his.
torian, says the Portland Ore.
gonian, that the name "Ore.
gon' is Aragan in disguise,
that it was given in this coun.
try by the early Spanish voy.
ayers, and that American ex.
plorers SO interpreted the word
given by the Indians. The
theory is at least plausible, and
indicates a strange freak of
fate. The name Spain proud.
ly brought to this distant
coast returned to the West In.
cies 900 years later to destroy
the power of Spain on the
seas. Little thought De Fuca
when he sighted this coast in
1892 that some day it would
build a warship which, under
the name of Aragon, or Ore.
gon, would be foremost in the
battle that marked the end of
Spain's dominion in the New
World.
"A little girl, aged two years,
in New York city, swallowed
a screw and was Immediately
thrown into terrible agony.
A doctor was hurriedly sum.
and promptly respond.
ed. He knew that if the screw
reached the intestines the
child would die. The man of
medicine and science called
for bread and milk and, while
It was being brought, he twist.
ed a dozen threads of raw
silk into a stout strand. One
end of it he put into the bread
and milk and then it was fed
to the child, which was forced
to swallow an end of silk
along with the food. For fif.
teen minutes the silk was al.
lowed to settle in the stomach,
50 as to give opportunity for
it to twist around the screw.
Then the doctor carefully pull.
ed at the end of the silk that
dangled from the baby's
mouth. The child had an at.
tack of nausea and that was
the desired thing. Another
careful pull and the screw was
drawn out, entangled in the
strands of silk. The baby
was saved and restored to its
hysterical mother. Such are
the victories of surgery.
