Fear Smali.ax Epidarnir.


Eddyville. Ia. Dee 21.--People of
Eddyville are considerably worked up
over the fact that Coalfeld woman
who has had charge of some of the
cases in that town. in the capacity of
nurse, came here and visited nearly
every store in town. not paying any
attention whatever to the vigorous
quarantine rules adopted by the town
authorities. ii was some little time
before the woman was recognized,
and not until the doctor shut the
door in her face when she was seen
approaching was it ascertained that
she was from the infected town.
Whether or not germs of the disease
have been brought here by the wo-
man from Coalfield is anxiously
awaited. In the meantime vaccination
is being resorted to as precaution-
airy measure.
Alvord, Ia, Dec. 20.-The smallpox
situation here is greatly improved and
Dr. Blair believes that the crisis is
past. No new cases have developed
and all precautionary guarantees
were lifted today except from, ,the
Cleary and Kreber families. where the
disease first appeared.
Independence, Ia. Dec. a0.-A case.
of smallpox has broken out here The
victim is Charles Page, ;and he is now
at the hotel under strict quarantine.

New York. Dee. 2l.--rhe London
corro spordent of the Herald says:
AT last details OF the battle at
ln9sla are coming through, but il is
very slowly and the stories are most
incomplete. All the dispatches bear
evidence of being severely censored.
For instance, General Ruller's official
report stated that he had lost eleven
guns, but this fact has been carefully
cut out of every message by the CEN
sor. who evidently was in ignorance
OF what news the war office had given
to the public.
I'VE now know that General Harris
brigade did actually cross the Tugela
river. but had to be withdrawn, losing
very heavily; that General lIildyard's
brigade WAS also checked and that
General Barton's brigade. OF whose
doings nothing has been heard. failed

to the west of Colenso.
There is no further explanation of
the loss a. artillery. 1t is said that
Colonel Long. who has been much
blamed for taking his guns too near
the Beers. was probably obliged to
do so.
I'm this connection it is pointed out
that Colonel Long has the reputation
of being Il very good officer We are
expressly told the overwhelmingly,
that be WIS anxious to get within eff
fectisc range of the enemy.
1T is the old, old story said an
artillery expert. The officers and
sunners of the Royal artillery are Sec
ond to none, but their guns are obso-
lcte.'
The British officer is as Il rule, es-
reeialiy i'm the early part of a cam
ra'gn, so keen 10 get at his work and
so eager to join issue at once with the
enemy that he is very apt to forget or
to hurry over the preliminary precar-
tionary measures"
The London Telegraph's correspond
ent at ohlevely camp. Natal. sends tire
following, dated Friday. November Is:
The troops of Ladysmith relief
column left here at O'Clock this
morning. going toward Colenso
Our main body of cavalry moved
to the right with a field battery
Next to them was the Union Flsileer
brigade. under General Barton. Then
care General Ilildyards brigade,
while upon the extreme left was Cen
cral Hurts Irish brigade, accompa-
ried by several field guns.
While Barton's aud Hildyard's men
advanced to envelope Colenso, Gem
eral Hart, on the left, tried to ford
the Tugela river, two miles to the
west.
"A battery of big naval guns firing
lyddite shells and 1a-pounders, posted
ar the center, began hammering away
at the cnemN's works north OF Tugela.
SIT was not, however, until the in
fantry attacked that the enemy dis
closed the position of it's cannon. With
great resolution and courage our SOL
diers pushed ahead in the face of a
terrible fire of shells and rifle bullets,
which caused a splatter OH the ground
like hailstones.
~ portion of our field and naval
guns were caught WITHIN short range
of the enemy's trenches on the river
bank and the battery suffered Sc
verely.

DENIES THE STORY.
Iowa College Trustee Says Presi.len
Gates Will Not Resign at Once.

Iowa College Trustee Says President
Gates Will Not Resign at Once.
Des Moines, Ia, Dec. 21.--ssTllere. is
no truth in the story that President
George a. Gates, of Iowa college, is
TO hand in his resignation in the near
future" said l.. Il. Wilson, secretary
OF the Hawlleye Building and Loan as
ISOLATION and one of the trustees OF
Iowa college. at has been known
for long time that Mrs. Gates health
was not of the best, in fact, that it
was almost impossible for her 10 live
at Grinneu, but we have all hoped
that she would become acclimated.
The story hus been in circulation for
some time and there is no more truth
In the matter now than the day it
was first started. If. DIR. Gates in
tended TO hand in his resignation in
the near future he would certainly
have given the trustees an intimatiou
OF the fact This he has not done.
''ln the event of Mrs. Gates health
not being restored and President
Gates is forced to choose between
Iowa college and his wife his resigna-
ton would not come before next june.
at the close of the present school
year. One of the amusing things con-
nected with the story is the mention
of the probable successors of Presi-
dent Gates i'm the event of his resigna-
ton. Albert Shaw. editor of the Re
view of Reviews. would never consider
the presidency. while any such
thought would be as far from the
mind of Dir. Henry G. Adams, who is
now professor of political economy ut
the University of Michigan at Ann
Arbor. A successor could not be
chosen in twenty-four hours. MOI.
would an Iowa college alumnus have
TO be chosen for the position. 1t has
lever been done before and probably
would not be done now"
