SMALLPOX EPIDEMIC COSTLY.
Yellowstone county's Expense Will
be at Least $4,000.

The pest house has the smallest
number of patients at the present time
that it has contained at any n time
since it was opened last fall. Several
times during the past two months it
was thought that the place would be
closed, but new cases made their ap-
pearance and the closing has been de
layed. Now there are only two cases,
one of these being the cook, and I'M
less new cases develop in the mean
time the hospital will be closed July 1.
DIR. Free, the attending physician, in
response to a telephone inquiry yes
terday, stated that he felt the symp-
toms of smallpox and expected to con-
tract the disease.
The present. siege of smallpox has
been the longest and heaviest that the
city has ever had to contend with. 1t
started early last fall and up to the
present time there have been 100 pa
tients cared for. Besides this num-
Der, some 20 were cared for at the
pest house, which the county estab-
lished on the Crow reservation near
Pryor.
That the prevalence of the disease
in the county has been costly can
readily be seen from the accounts
which the board Of county commits
sioners have allowed from time to
time. The expense up to June !
amounted to almost $4,000, and it is
estimated that there will be about
$4,000 additional before the pest house
is closed for good.

The Ball Game.

The Gardnerville team carried off the
honors in the ball game Sunday, de-
feating the Clerk nine of Carson by a
score of A to 10.
Harry James twirled the ball for the
home team and Jas. Carr of Fairview
officiated as catcher. The boys were
hilarious over the result and many of
our town people felt SO good they
wanted to sing something.
All in all it was a gala day for Gard
nerville. Many Carson people were
present, and the carnival colors, red,
green and yellow, were everywhere.
After the ball game there was foot
race between Chas. Emerson of Car
son and Willie Murphy of Gardner
vile. The home man won the race,
which was another cause for Joy.

Memorial Day.

The observance yesterday at Genoa
of the sweet and tender customs of
Memorial Day was interesting and
impressive. The day was perfect and
the attendance large, and wreaths of
flowers and the stars and stripes were
visible everywhere.
Services were held in the Methodist
Church at / O'Clock by Rev. Welty and
the choir rendered several appropriate
selections. At the conclusion of the
services the Odd Fellows and Rabekahs
marched to the cemetery, wearing
their regalia and carrying their en-
signs, and wreaths and bouquets of
flowers. The procession was led by
the Gardnerville band, and following
the Rebekahs and Odd Fellows were
the school children and many people
on foot and in carriages.
At the cemetery the choir and band
furnished sweet and appropriate music
and the l. o. o. F. service was rem
dered, stirring the hearts of the people
and enlivening their memory of the
dead. Henry Alderman, Noble Grand
of Genoa Lodge, delivered pleasing
and Instructive Grafton and Mrs. c. e.
Merrick read a beautiful poem in a
clear and distinct voice. Some time
was spent in decorating the graves,
after which all assembled and returned
to town in marching order, the Odd
Fellows and Rebekahs being dismissed
at their hall.
The formal ceremonies were beauti-
full and impressive and the observance
of the day quite elaborate, for little
community like this. 1t was delight
full observance of a beautiful custom
that will linger long in our hearts.
