TYPHOID FEVER
 IS VERY SCARCE
But inc Doctors Talked About It Last Night-No Signs
 of An Epidemic

The Jefferson County Medical Society held regular meeting last night in the Commercial Club rooms.
 The subject for discussion at the meet ing was typhoid fever, and the basis of the discussion was Typhology, by Dr. E. H. Sholl; Biology, by Dr. Cunningham Wilson, and Treatment. by pr. J. C.. LeGrande. And afterwards a general discussion of the subject took place par ticipated in by several of the members of the society.
 There are very few cases of typhoid fever in the city, but while it has not become an epidemic it engages the at- tention of the health authorities.
 Dr. Sholl, chairman of the health com- mittee, has instructed the county health officer. Dr. Mason. to make an inspec- ton of the water supply of the city with a view of determining whether the water has been contaminated. The inspection will be made immediately. The health of ficers do not state and do not believe that there Is any contamination of the water supply, but the inspection Is neces- sary in order that the authorities may be re-assured as to the conditions which are producing the fever.

HARRY FLEETWOOD
Makes the Hit in "chlmes of Nor
 mandy" Last Night.

"Chimes of Normandy at Lakeview last night was triumph for Harry Light wood. As Gaspard. the miser, he made one of the most distinct hits ever seen at that theatre, and at the end of his mad scene in the haunted chateau, the curtain calls from the audience were loud and long. From the low comedy part of Don Bolero. which he played last week, to the highly tragic role of Gaspard is a transition which few commedians care to undertake. MT. Lightwood has proved himself an actor and a commedian. Were there not another good feature in the opera, Gaspard would make the produc- ton a success.
 But there were numerous others Chas. c. Washburn, as Henri, the marquis, was decidedly forceful. and his solo, with Joy, My Heart" WIS loudly encored. Frank H. Ormsby, as Grenicheux, the conceited fisherman, sang well and play ed cleverly.
 Lorenzo Luckie was the commedian last night in the role of the Bailli. He is or iginal and witty and more than sustain ed the favorable reputation he has with the Lakeview audiences
 Miss Norma Schoola had the soubrette role of Serpoiette the Good-for- Nothing. She was very graceful, and sang well, and in the last act as the supposed march, ioness, had a devil-may-care air that was charming.
 And lastly but not leastly is dear lit- tie Germaine" Miss Queen Miles was never sweeter. and sang her legend of the haunted castle, and played the demure little villager most pleasantly.
 Chimes of Normandy" is a good show.

IN MEMORIAM.

January %, 1901 and was buried at
Bull Head, with Masonic honors. the
day following It. Was desired that
Elder M. P. Davis hold the burial
services, but he was away from home
and failed to get the word in time.
Mr.. TAYLOR was magistrate for
more han thirty years and very few
times did the higher courts reverse
his decision.
He neglected his own business to
serve others. It seemed to be his
greatest pleasure to lend helping
hanG to all who called upon him He
was known many times to make no
charge or to receive pay wnen the
law gave it to him. Poor in earthly
goods and needing all he could get,
| yet he loved to serve when he knew
| there was no compensation. I don't
remember ever knowing a man with
a larger Or kinder heart.
Gone! to be missed, to be longed
for; not by his relatives only. but by
all his neighbors-all who knew him
well-and they were legion.
His last days were days of pain.
Amid it all, Mr. Taylor prayed. The
heart of a believer always looks to
the One who can help. "Whosoever
calleth upon the Lord shall be
saved" Stephens last words were,
Lord Jesus, receive my spirit The
Lord said of Paul, Behold, he.
prayeth." How sweet it is to depart
this life calling upon the Lord, who
is so merciful and gracious, slow to
anger and plenteous in mercy.
May his loved ones be comforted
by the merciful and gracious Father,
into whose hands their loved one is
gone. NJ. p. D.
