Ifyou II make a diagnosis when you're feel.
ing sad and dreary,
AS you would with any everyday disease,
III you'll simply question science as to why
you're glum and weary
And everything seems duh and III at
ease,
Perhaps you will discover. after devious
calculations,
The cause Of all these symptoms which
appalL
And you'll smile as you reflect, in spite OF
various !rritations,
That it's nothing but the weather after
all.
You'll find Sigh denoting neither sorrow
nor contrition.
A tear drops not indicative OF care
they are products OF the meteorological
condition
OF extra moisture that IS IN the air
SO perhaps it's not in reason fortunes
chance to be reviliug
Or to VOW LIES store of happiness Is
small
For when the sun comessow again, again
we will be smiling.
It's nothing but the,weather after ALL

Look not with dark contempt upon
The little things. for they
Keep playing big part in mems
Affairs from day to day;
A little piece of fuse, alackI
May frlghten kings and GEARS
A little child upon the track
Sometimes delays the cars.
Spurn not the little bits of things;
Ignore them not, because
Some little thing some day, may bring
Down men and all their laws;

TOM cLELAND FOOLS EN- AGAIN
Baiks Second Attempt TO Hold Him Up
at Ills saloon,

To Illustrate two attempts TO hold
him up is the enviable record for one
week Of Thomas Cleland, the well
known West Standpoint saloon man.
On the oath mlt. two masked men en-
tered Cleland's saloon with the inten-
tion OF holding up the place. In this,
Cleland, as reported In these columns
last week. The second attempt at
holding up the place was made OH the
27th ult. Tom Cieland was alone IN
the saloon when the robber entered.
He was ordered to throw up his
hands, and upon hesitating TO comply
with the mandatory request, was
dealt a blow by the robber. The blow
was badly aimed, falling triilc short
of the mark and spending its force
against Toms shoulder. This blow
had no sooner been dealt when Tom IS
dog sprang forward and seized the
would-be robber by the leg, and with
cry OF pain the bandit fled. The
wouldbe robber is reported 10 have
been masked, and as in the former at
tempt to hold up the place, no trace OF
the robber has been found. Tom SAYS
that he don't mind much meeting with
robbers once Il week, but twice In one
week is rather too severe a strain on
his nerves.

No More Smallpox.

William McDermott, who was last
week taken to the detention hospital
afflicted with smallpox, is reported to
be getting along nicely. 1t is also re-
ported to be only mild form Of the
disease. In this connection the Re-
publican desires to say that its ar
raignment Of Charles Selle. McDer-
motifs employer, last week was. per-
haps. little severe, according to later
information. The old gentleman
AYERS that he knew nothing Of Nc
Dermott's having been exposed at
Bonners Ferry, and that he had only a
faint suspicion that il might be small
pox before DR.. Page SO pronounced
the malady. He gave the following
version Of McDcrmott' s appearance on
our streets: As soon as he had the
slightest reason to suspect that his
cook might be afflicted with smallpox
he proceeded To have him brought into
town in a wagon with another man,
expecting himself To follow immed-
lately on horseback. However. he de-
layed in starting and the wagon
reached town short time before he
did. But when he did arrive he lost
no time in having the man examined
by the doctor. Mr.. Selle further
stated that he was always very careful
with infectious or contagious diseases
and that since McDermott left his
camp he had taken every precaution
~ prevent "A spread OF the dread dis
ease. No further trouble on account
Of smallpox has since been reported
from Selle's camp, and the old gentle
man believes that the precautions
taken Immediately upon the discovery
of McDermott' ailment were effec-
tive
