SPECIAL COUNCIL Meeting.
Will Consider Problem of Caring for
Smallpox Patients.

Notices were sent out by the mayor to-
day calling a special meeting of the city
council for tomorrow night for the pur-
pose OF considering the small pox situa-
ton. The matter will come up on a re-
port of the board of health, recommend
ing that an arrangement be entered into
with the county, as reported in yester.
days Inter Mountain. The plan con-
temnlated Is to have all city small poN
cases cared for at the county pest house,
the city to pay 25 per cent of the cost
of maintaining the institution. In addi-
ton to this, it is proposed that the city
have a convenient detention hospital,
where patients will be isolated until
called for by the ambulance.
Mayor Mccarthy, speaking of the plan
proposition as a whole a good one, as it
will afford the city such facilities as
must be had and at very reasonable eX-
nense. The plan is fair and just to the
city and county and will save US any
delay. The detention hospital will pro-
tect the city from cOntagiOn, but to Sc
cure all this in any other way would
doubtless cost us a great deal more
money"
Members of the council who have gone
over the plans proposed expressed hem
selves as heartily favoring it, and there
seems no doubt as to its adoption to-
morrow night.

pie in the matter of licenses. Heretofore,
the general license procured covered the
sale of peanuts, popcorn. pink lemonade
and other "accessories,'' without which the
circus would lose it's SAVIOR and depart from
the time -honored traditions. This after
noon the treasurer appeared at the tents
and demanded that a merchants license be
paid. The circus people protested vigor-
ously and the treasurer called upon the
sheriff's office to support his demand. Mat
ters were warming UP for an interesting
climax when the circus people weakened
and paid the license under protest, SO tina,
