What the home paper cannot do
for a town in the way of descrip-

while for the transient space writer

The Grand River Smallpox.

The smallpox situation east Of
Grand river is practically unchanged.
There are about forty cases and DR..
Fortner, representing the board Of
health, went over Friday to establish
guards and in conjunction with DR..
Owen will try to isolate those who
have the disease as to lessen the
danger OF contagion as much as possi-
ble. a representative Of the Indian
police will be in charge Of the guards.
Several pairs of handouts were taken
along SO that il any one happens to
be obstreperOus and refuses to obey
the quarantine regulations they will
be handled as common criminals.
With this precautionary action 10y the
board, there seems to be little danger
Of the disease getting to Vinita, or
even spreading in the country.

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nOunced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incgrable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls catarrh cure, manufactured by
f. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoOnful.
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
cuous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars and

tween DR.. Mahon. witness for the

doctor was being examined by Mr. Bo-
han and was seated in a chaii. To one
of the questions asked the doctor gave
a reply which was not entirely to tho
liking Of Attorney Bohan, and the ldt-
ter attacked the doctor and struck
him a blow on the head Dr. Mahoa
retaliated and struck the attorney sew
eral blows in defense. A scuffle en-
sued in which the lawyer yelled "mur-

the doctor that some one had IA knife.
