Smallpox General IN the Stnte-Th,
New Items.

4tle5tt,a New A0yV8-OknCEs1teIu
Des Moines, May 9-The smallpox in
dustry continues to boom. The state
board of health is not nearly able to re-
spond to all demands made for attend
ance OF experts. Secretary Kennedy
yesterday went to Lamont, where the
situation is bad. AT Lovilla, Monroe
county, he is wanted at once. as there
has been an outbreak. The mayor of
Boone called up the Office over the tele-3
phone yesterday and announced that
something must be done there at once.
He is especially aggrieved against the
authorities at Frazier, a mining town a
few miles from Boone. He declares there
have been fully $50 cases there, and that
not over fifteen houses have been quar-
antined. The people with the disease
tramp around the town, exposing ev-l
erybody else. and recently some enter
prising rag merchants have been gath
ering up the cast-off Frazier clothing
and shipping it into Boone. resulting In
starting line OF cases there. The peo-'
pie of Boone want q prohibitive tariff
as against Frazier. and
they want it right away.
a AT Greene, in Butler county, several
cases are reported. There is no health
officer in the township and the board
OF health declines to take any action.
DIR. Kennedy's presence Is demanded
without delay.
T A man at Baxter writes that a good
share OF the people have the smallpox
there, but they all call it the chicken
pox, and take no precautions to prevent
Its spread. At vancleve, Marshall coun-
ity, man writes that three families in his
town have the disease. They come down
town freely. even thofe VINO are broken
out with the disease; come into his store
and have frightened him half to death.
He wants to know II they can't be sup
pressed. Hubbard, Hardin county, re-
ports that its outbreak is finally at an
end, after twenty five cases have run
their course.
The secretary OF state has furnished
to the printer copy of most Of the laws
OF the last general assembly. and II is
expected they will be out. In book
form. July 1. The book will be the
largest compilation Of session laws for
several years. There were 224 acts
eight Joint and six concurrent resolu.
tions passed Demands come from all
sources for copies OF the laws.
The audttoro OF state is In constant re-
ceipt Of letters from building and loan
associations which want to know how
to let go. They have concluded that
they can't continue business under the
new law. but the question Is how to gel
out of 1t. They don't understand the
new laws provisions about liquidating
and assume that the auditor knows al
about everything. While this assump.

Protecting the Game.

DR.. William Anderson, president Of the
Marion County Game association, is after
the viOlators of the law in that county.
Several weeks prior to the opening OF the
bird season two men were tried in Coun-
ty Judge Bullock court for violating the
game law. One paid S25 fine, the other
one was falsely sworn against, and was
not guilty of the charge. This associa-
ton, through the efforts of its president,
who is a dear lover of hunting and fish
ing, has done 4 great deal to preserve the
game of the county. The association has
a standing offer Of $40 reward for the
conviction of any person violating the
law, and it has wholesome and restrain
ing effect.

Clever Distinctions.

Tom Hicks, with usual eleverness, as
severates that the difference between
pines in Georgia and pines in Florida is:
In Georgia the pine produces burrs, and
in Florida the pine produces apples.
Tom, the eynic SAYS that all ''pines"
are non sui generis. For instance, some
of the other sex will tell you that there is
another kind of 'pine," which produces
heartaches; e. G., when their beau ideal
has gone to the concert with some other
girl.
