Two More Mild Cases.

We learn that the husband,
Sam Horton, of the negro woman
who recently had small pox on
Mr. Clanton's place, near the
Halle Gold Mine, now has the
disease, and that his mother, Anne
Horton, also has it. They are
pronounced very light cases and
no uneasiness is expressed about
the spread of the disease. A
guard Is kept about the premises
to prevent any one going to the
house. The people of the vicinity
are not at all alarmed. Some say
they don't mind having it if they
can get off with as light cases as
these parties have.

The committee decided that un-

not prevent them from running

themselves.
