SMALLPOX SITUATION.

Some doctor, it is reported to us,
wrote Chief Quarantine Blount at
Austin, Texas, that small pox was
raging here to an alarning extent,
and that the authorities were doing
nothing to stamp it out. DR.,
Blount wrote the Mayor of the
West Side that unless he did some
thing to keep the disease from
spreading he would order a state
quarantine against our city, The
reporter after diligent inquiry finds
that Leonard Marbury who come
here from Keith, La, sick, and who
is now in bed and the house being
tagged and guarded, is about the
only case of type that can be pro
nounced any ways dangerous, Fur
ther, case was reported of negro
living in an alley back of the Rod
gers house, as having case and
when the committee of safety went
there, they found the negro up. A
yellow flag was hung out at this
place.
There have been good many
cases, however, of an eruptive dis
ease, but no fatalities attached,
and in many cases those who had
it did not 90 to bed with the same.
We do not think the disease suffi-
ciently prevalent to have our city
locked up by outsiders and we hope
no action of the kind will be taken.
Now that we have board of in
spectors to hunt up cases, we hope
they will make report to the city
press and keep not only our own
people posted as to the disease, but
outsiders.
On the east side we learn that
the houses of Messrs. Bailey and
Moore and a colored man, named
Washington, we're ordered tagged
with the yellow ensign this morning.
Mr., Baily lost child last night but
it had recovered from the eruptive
disease and died with pneumonia.
Dr. Grant telephoned us this
morning that he knew of no cases
personally but had been informed
that couple of cases we're on Col
lege Hill.
In connection with the above we
will state that the Board of Health
has employed Dr. ]. r. Miller tc
look after and hunt up all cases oI
an infectious or contagious disease
in the city and DR.. Miller has author
ity from the Broad to visit every
house in the city where case o.
sickness may be reported.
We learn that DR., Talbot who IL
state quarantine officer for this city
received a letter from DR.. Blount
state health quarantine officer, tC
make an inspection of the city aut
report all cases to him,
We are In hopes that the smallpox
scare if there be any from outside
places will soon blow over and that
our own people will use every pre-
caution to keep the disease we have
with us, whether smallpox OF
chicken pox from spreading by con
tact with it.

HE HEARS PADEREWSKI.
And the "Red-Haired Pianny Player Gives Him a Good Run for
 His Money.

"Aw, say, went down to one of them big theayters the other day when my layover was in Chicago, and heard that foreigner with the asbestos hair that looks like bag of waste that got busted open when the local crew kicked it off at way station where they didn't stop. He didn't appear to be bigger'n the front section of his name -blamed if I can spell all in it at onct, but it's somethin' like Paddyhooky.
 Well, anyway, the guy can play the peanny out O sight He had one of them wagontop eXtension-fro with a straight shot stack and there wasn t any speak easy in the nozzle at that. 1 don't know whether it was a simple or a compound, but guess it was both. for his nobs with the fowin' hair could ever run, but all through the trip l never heard it start off lame. He took hold of her kinder easy at first, and then he widened on her and she began to spin around like as if the rail was sleety, but he put her on sand, and as soon as she got down to business again he just dropped her down in the fire mans notch and went after her again, but he didn't work her there long, for l guess he was getting short on water, and he seemed to baby her little, and he hooked her up in about six inches and she cut out lot of miles in pretty fast time, you bet.
 Then bo rpoIa litf1a Sloyy-un and scooped tankful of water and he after her again. She was down in the com pany's notch for the next five minutes and then I guess he got message from the dispatcher to take ten more cars, for she pretty nearly stalled, and didn't seem to be cuttin' her fire, but she got over that pretty quick, because l think the dispatcher busted the message, and she began to hum again. don't know how fast he got her goin' that time, but I know I was clean scared and just hung on to my seat and wished that there wasn't any bad curves ahead. l wouldn't have given a cent for my life then if broken rail or a caboose tail light showed up ahead, for didn't know how many cars of air he had cut in, but he brought her down to as pretty stop as ever you see, and jest naturally un- loaded right there and cut out for eight hours rest for my nerve was clear gone, you bet.-Chicac Chronicle.

THE ITALIAN WOMEN.
with but Few Exceptions They Are Behindhand in the March
 of Progress.

The rather low standard of her cul
 lure tends also to keep the Italian wom. an behindhand in the march of emarc;. patton, though one comes across re- markabie exceptions among those oc- eupied with education or literature and even In society. The Italian has a very acute intelligence, which takes in win extraordinary promptitude anything presented to her mind; but she does not ouiuvate it; once her studies end q sne closes her books; "adieu paniers. ,ep- oanges sont faites!" That most useful heip 10 feminine intellectual develop.
 heht' reading. has not yet become naDlt with her. There are countries where books are more used bv women man by men; rich, they buy them; poor
 they have the lending library: in their yearly expenditure, no matter how small 1t be, literature has it's place. There is nothing like this in Italy. With inc exception of a small minority, the women do not read, and have no wish to read. Their celebrated apcestresses o| ihe sixteenth century must look at them with reproachful eyes. If the shade of the President des Crosses re- crossed the Alps he would find no Maria Gaetana Agnesi, called the oracle of seven languages and the servant of the poor, and declared by him to be more marvellous than Milan cathedral. Rene. d4et XIV. granted permission to this learned Milanese lady 10 take her fath- CTS place as professor of mathematics at the University of Bologna during an illness of the latter. As just hundred years have elapsed since her death, her first centenary might have been cele- brated in 1899; but no one thought of it.
 The tradition of feminine learning IS lost in Italy; indeed, it was Lost long before the time of Maria Gaetana Az Desi. The Italian of to-day may yet prove herself capable of emulatirg her great forerunners; but in the meantime 1t is certain that modern ideas have made so much less way with her than with the women of other European countries that she offers a more for midable resistance than even the men of her own land to any effort at reform jn favor of her sex. This inferiority of culture has the double effect of great y limiting the number of women capa- ble of taking any part whatever in pub- lie affairs, and of creating an utter want of sympathy with the emancipation movement in general.-Contempo

tests, and when one member of COM
mittee proposed the names of the state
officers, as enumerated above, they all
went through by a vote of AYE" most
Of the7u being absent ct the time
The Success Of the. convention was
due largely to National Chairman o.

of his visit to Salt Lake being to or
ganize the PARTY here. He made
stirring speech in the afternoon, as did
the Rev. c. J. Hall, editor of the PrOhi-
bition organ at Denver, both gentlemen
being listened to with rapt attention
At 70 o'clock yesterday forenoon. the
hour appointed Judge Foreman of Og-
