There is quite a small pox scare up
above the creek. The house of f. B.
Koschman has been placarded with
sign smallpox" 1t seems that two
of the children are down with light
attacks of verioloid. AS virulent small
pox can come from this, it is Just as
well that the strietest quarantine be
maintained until it is certain every YES
tige OF the disease is stamped out. Mr..
KoschmanH and two sons who are in
the store have not been near the house
and are allowed to be ut large rs long
as they do not go to the house. The
children are about the house and not
what might be called sick
James Wilson, who went to Harrison,
Idaho, writes home that he is delighted
with the country, and the climate
agrees with him perfectly. Here, he
was badly troubled with the asthma,
and in his attempts to get relief he has
been to different parts of Wisconsin
and last year went 10 Washington, and
| spent five or six months, but the asthma
stayed right by him. In Idaho he has
not had Il touch of it, the same having
left him as soon as he got there "Jim''

The Fourth Regiment Band dance
will take place Mt Alexander Hall on
the evening of Friday, Dec eth. This
will be one of the finest parties of the
season. 1t is being arranged to have
eighteen first class musicians in the
orchestra. This party is purely for the
benefit of the band and out of it the
members hope to make enough to assist
them in paying for their new quarters,
uniforms, music, etc. If the people of

have it by literally patronizing the en-
tertainments and dances, which will be
from time to time given by the band
Admission to the party on Dec 7th will
be 80 cents
On Wednesday last Coroner Dickens
empanelled jury to investigate the
Klucke case. Testimony was intro
duced but nothing further was brought
out in the matter more than to strength
en- the belief that the fire, by which the
old people lost their lives, occurred be-
tween II o'clock midnight and 8 o'clock
in the morning, and not before 13 as
claimed by Schwantes. The jury was
unable to arrive at any satisfactory
knowledge as to how the old people
came to their death, and rendered a
verdict accordingly. They, however,
recommended that the district attorney
investigate more fully into the matter,
which will be done There the matter
rests.
