TO KEEP DOWN SMALL POX
Meeting of the State Boards at Duluth
TO Consult as to Best Methods.

Duluth, Aug. IA An informal
meeting of the various boards OF health
of Minnesota and Wisconsin was held
this morning to discuss small pox.
The formal meeting is being held this
afternoon. The first, meeting was
SHINY attended, and the later one
much better. The afternoon meeting
convened at o'clock and discussed
matters brought up in the morning.
The boards will probably recon-
mend that the lumbermen build deten-
ton camps as adjuncts to all large
camps; that the men be not paid Off
and discharged when sick, but be held
for a diagnosis and, if found necessary,
that they be sent to regular hospitals
and that no men be employed at rail
road or lumber camps or elsewhere in
large bodies unless they can show i'm
munity by the disease itself or success
full vaccination within five years.
cit is question if loggers will accept
all these conditions without a fight,
though most of the large operators
have already established detention hos
pitfalls or camps.
The Tower Lumber company today
notified the state board it would CO.
operate with the county in the build
ing and operation of a hospital at
Tower. The meeting did not call out
the expected attendance or interest,
though men were present from Su-
perior and Ashland, Wis, Iron Range
points, Fosston. Cloquet and elsewhere.
DR.. Bracken stated there had been
6, 200 cases of small pox in Minnesota
since last year, of which twenty mine
had been fatal.

There seems to be very little change
in the strike situation. The western
workers have refused to obey President
Shaffer's order to go out, and this move
has greatly strengthened the conserva-
tive element in the east which lacks
confidence in Shaffer's ability, and are
favoring the forcing of some sort of a
settlement. While the men who retain
their places in the west will contri-
butte portion of their weekly wage to
the strikers, still the moral effect of
their refusal to go out, will more than
overcome any benefit which will result
from such contributions. The fact is
a large portion of the men who have
gone out have no heart in the strike.
They see no real necessity for it. They
were getting good wages and they are
strongly of the belief that the ques-
tions at stake could have easily been
settled without this great struggle.
The best estimates place the total
number of men who have gone out in
the strike az about 60, instead of
over 100, 900 that were expected. 1t
looks as though it were failure from
the start, though later events may de-
termine differently. The steel corpor-
alton claims that it's daily output has
been only slightly affected, but this
statement is probably largely for effect.
So far there has been no trouble,
though the combine has succeed ed in
starting a numl of mills that were
closed. The corporation seems to be
proceeding cautiously so as to avoid
trouble, while there are certain ele-
ments among the idle men that would
welcome a clash. The strike leaders,
however, are counseling peaceful
attitude everywhere, though some of
their moves to keep the mills closed
will have tendency to make trouble
in the future, if both sides are persist
emit. Thousands of the strikers have
gone to work in independent pla nts or
obtained work in other lines, and the
general attitude of the strikers as a
! whole is of peaceful nature,

Diminutive Chronometer Exhibited Re.
Gently at a Show in Berlin.

The dowager duchess of Sutherland,
who is credited with possessing the
only crystal watch in existence, hav-
ing transparent works made for the
most part of rock crystal, had the
works removed from a miniature watch
and placed inside magnificent dia-
mond having a diameter not exceeding
the depth of four lines of ordinary
type.
Small as this timepiece was, 1t is
surpassed in diminutiveness by what
was justly described as the smallest
watch in the world" which was ex-
hibited at the watch exhibition In
Berlin recently. Made of fine gold
this microscopic watch had the dimen-
sions of pea that is to say, its di-
ameter of 615 millimeters, which is
practically quarter of an inch, would
equal in depth three lines of type !;
$50 of these watches would weigh
about one pound avirdupois, If there
existed any one possessing a heart
sufficiently adamant to permit 80 bru-
tai a weight as avirdupois to be ap-
piled to so delicate a mechanlsm m.
Made of gold and valued at e4OO,
this dainty watch boasts minute
hand as long as an ordinary sized
letter ''l'' and a half, an hour hand
less than an en- and half in length,
and second hand one-sixteenth of an
inch long that would demand an in
cursion into the nonpariel font to sup
ply a suitable illustration. Coed

last Wednesday morning. His death
was attributed to a shock resulting
from an operation. The boy had Pc
culiar formation of the bowels, which
from some cause formed into a knot
in attempting.to straighten the trouble
he died. 1t was the only hope of saw
ing him, as he could not have lived 4S

afternoon from the effects of an injury
sustained week ago last Monday.
The young man went after the COWS
riding bronco mare with a colt. The
colt ran ahead which excited the
mother, and she started to follow. The
young man gave sudden jerk on the
bit which was the kind for holding
runaways, this caused the animal to
rear, and she fell over backwards with
the man underneath, injuring him in
ternally. The funeral was held from

THE HUNGER FOR LAND.
A Fairmonter Takes Part in the Great
Struggle for Homes 10 Oklahoma.
Fairmont Sentinel

Fairmont Sentinel:
]. I. Richter of this city, who spent
three weeks in the Oklahoma country
during the recent homestead excite
ment, has some interesting and excit-
ing experiences to relate.
He stopped at Ell Reno which is a
city some larger than Fairmont but
during the excitement of registering
there were from thirty to fifty thous-
and strangers in the place, and there
was regular scramble to get in and
out of the trains In order to get aboard
a train the rustlers would meet 1T
some rods out from the station and be-
gin climbing on as soon as it COM
menced to slacKen speed and by the
time the train arrived at standstill
it was jammed full.
John registered for claim but was
not one of the lucky parties in the
drawing. There were something over
13, 900 claims to be had for which 1873, =
600 people registered.
Five men are now in Jail for regis
tering in both districts, termed Ell
Reno and Lawton districts, after the
names of the two towns where the
drawing was done. Among the five is
the man who drew No. /, a chance
worth $50, 900. There are many con-
tests already ordered, for one reason
or another, and it will be long time
before the whole matter is finally set
tied.
In each of the counties of the new
territory the government located the
county seat and plated half section
of land, then sold the lots at auction.
Mr.. Richter bought good lot in one
of the most promising of these towns.
He considers the drawing to have
been perfectly fair. A box about ~
feet square and IL feet long was pro-
vided with a crank at one end and ar
ranged so as TO revolve like churn.
The name of every person who regis
tered in the district was placed in a
small envelope and dropped in this
box. There were three holes in this
box, one near each end and one in the
center. A name would be taken out of
each hole the first read being No. 1,
the others and 3. The box was then
closed, given turn, opened again and
4, and drawn out, and so on until
all of the names had been drawn. The
one who drew No. 1 had the choice of
any 100 acres in the district; No. 2
second choice, and so on to the end.
The names were called twice, and
if the party did not respond at the Sec
ond call it was thrown out.

ARE IN NO HURRY.
Farmers Do More Stacking and Less
Threshing From the Shock.

Minneapolis, Aug. 15.-Traffic
men have advices that the farmers
of the northwest will stack their wheat
to greater extent this year and thresh
from the shock less. This means, they
believe, that the early movement of
wheat will not be SO great, making
the transportation problem easier than
in other years when the northwest has
been favored with a reasonably large
crop of wheat.
1t is the experience of railroad men
that as a community grows more pros
porous and independent its farmers do
less of the early hurrying of wheat to
market that characterizes the newer
countries. Minnesota wheat raisers
for the past few years have gone about
getting their wheat to market in a
Ieisurely way. Some of the northwest
ern roads for several years have had
their first large receipts from North
Dakota. But it is expected that North
Dakota will do less early threshing
than usual this year.
The collector heretofore has been
one of the most urgent factors in the
early threshing habit since the north
west began to be largely peopled. He
has wanted his money early and the
farmer, to accommodate him, has put
the thresher to work and sent the
grain to market at the earliest possible
moment.
Most of the roads have new equip
ment ordered, which will be delivered
in September and October, to aid in
handling the crop. All of the roads
have been nursing their cars back
into this territory for several weeks
past. General Freight Agent Martin
of the 500, looks for lively business
this fall, but Goes not think the dan
ger of Car famine is worth consider
ing.
Several of the roads during the past
few weeks have brought considerable
old wheat to Minneapolis. Many of
the farmers, now that good crop is
in sight, are shipping the odd lots OF
old wheat they have had on hand. The
numerous shipments show the frugal
ity of the northwestern farmer. He
holds to enough old wheat to furnish
bread and seed until he sees the new
crop assured.
