PAULINE HALL.

A notable weeks engagement was inaueurated this afternoon at the Jacuues, when Pauline Hall and the Wilbur Opera company presented '"Ihe Mascot.' At the evenings perform ance .'The Two Vagabonds," which Is really ..Erminie,'' will be presented, and Pauline Hall will sing her origi- nal role, the one she created ill the first production of the opera. As an incidental feature, and one that will interest the public generally, Miss Hall will wear her beautiful collection of diamonds, which is valued at over Soo,- GOO. The chance to hear Pauline Hall at popular prices is something that Waterbury showgoers should eagerly embrace, as it is one that comes to them but seldom. She is not singing much in opera now, being connected with the Wilbur company for few weeks only, and the public generally are not favored with the privilege of hearing the magnificent voice that stirred so many when she was the great rival of Lillian Russell on the comic opera stage. She retains all of her wonderful beauty as well as her voice and those who visit the Jacques during the week will be as much dag zled by her beauty as they are charmed with her voice. All the old favorites are still with the company, making 1t one of great strength. The End of Babylon is shown at every perform ance. :.

Stamp It Out.

II Gov. Herried and the state board

tinuous and unrelenting campaign
against the free and easy planting,
breeding and transportation Of small
pox.over the center and western part Of
the state, next winter will see state
wide pestilenee. A similar condition
will prevail in Iowa, Nebraska and
Minnesota, because those states were in.

those states the disease came. Nearly
every county in Missouri had small
pox last winter, and from Missouri 1t
spread north and northwest Every
towa breads to put up smallpox flag,
because 1t fears the people will shun it
and business will be paralized. Medi-
cal science has taught us that no one
need dread the small pox if ordinary
care and prompt treatment are given.
Grip, pneumonia and typhoid are more
fatal than small pox. No one runs
from these diseases, yet the death
record leaves small pox harmless
disease when compared with the others
Smallpox only becomes dangerous from
neglect and fright and silence. Prompt
treatment and rigid quarantine will
dispose of this ancient ''raw-head and
bloody bones" as easily as with a
run of measles. Where smallpox
exists today in this and neighboring
states, heroic measures should be taken
10 stamp it out, because if allowed to
run" it will End material to feed upon,
yet under existing conditions it is a
very difficult matter to keep it beyond
our borders, with thousands coming
into the state from infected communi.
ties east and south of US. People will
travel, smallpox or no smallpox. hence
it seems that all that can be done must
he through county and state organiza
tion. Over in Rapid City where the
disease tis in live and growing con-
diGion, the board Of health burned an
old shack where the disease had grown
and fatte.ed. A few fool people got
up = petition to the City Council ask
ing them not to pay for the shack.
One member of the board of health
resigned and the others Threatened to
do 60, but the Couaoil, took, q, firm, stand
in defense of the ,health board. Dead
wood and Lead had hot time last
wiater about quarantine, but instead
of Sighting each otAsr, the authorities
wisely went to work and olsaned ont

at Grst called Cuban itch and other
harsaless names, until the '::itsh" grew
into q mild form ,of .smallpox. The
history of the disease before,it becomes
q pes,i1enoe, seems to spread ,out over
the la.d IN a mild form ;as it did last
winter and this spring, and experts
think the entire west vail have . .seri-

can be done in advance, and to neglect
this will be little short of q crime.
This is the 6me for the State Board of
Health to begin' and secure a thorough
organization ia every county in the

 Busy men and women threatened with failure of nerve force and showing ! the effect of too prolonged, too hard or too anxious work. by periods of lan- guOr, depression, nervousness, dyspep- | sia CT other signs of nerve exhaustion, will find Paine's celery compound an | invigorator as superior to all other | remedies as modern scientific methods are superior to the oldfashloned. in accurate ones.
 When Tuinc's celery compound Is
 used, othsr members of the family are quick to see the great gain in health. Paine's celery compound is the one known nerve feeder and nerve restora- | tive. By it's means all the functions of ! the bi,ly receive a fresh supply oi

 indispensable vital forge, without which | there can be no health, strength, noi

moost, but instead of killing him. sue ceeded only in binding him. Woods men have had opportunities to watch the animal more or less during the win ter and have been much interested in him. The moose does not appear to have suffered greatly from the loss Of his eyes, and is sleek and fat. He is a magnificent specimen, with antlers that branch nearly six feet.
 Moose form so-called yards in winter in places where there is abundant brush. When the fed about one yard Is exhausted they make another some distance away, and there they travel in circles as before. eating the small trees and bran hes clean of tips and buds. If alone and obliged to shift for himself blind moose would die of starvation.
 To this blind moose there has at- tached himself young bull. and the two are constantly in company. say those who have seen them. The young CT moose Is the guide and friend of the blind one. One woodsman who watch cd them for hours one days says that the younger led the elder to the best punches about the yard. It had then been eaten pretty clean and was soon to bJ deserted, and it was with some difficulty that the young animal was able to lead the other to clumps Of twigs. The blind moose showed sagac- ity in following, and was almost able. probably by an abnormal development of the sense of smell, to go without as- sistance.
 Wolves are plenty in the naighbor- hood of moose yards. and the backs and necks of the companions showed plain ly the marks of fights with them. It was plain, too. from the position of the wounds on the sma Ter bull that he had borne the chief attack and had defend ed the other.

ANDREES WILL OPENED.
A Presentiment That His Journey
 Would Prove Fatal. ...


 The Berlin correspondent of the Lon- don Times says that Andree, before starting on his balloon voyage for the north pole, enjoined that his will should not be opened until the end of 1900. It was enclosed in a packet which was opened a few days ago in the presznce of relatives. Some of the documents in the packet were sealed and inscribed "To be burnt unread" Tn addition to these there was series of letters from scientists encouraging the expedition, and one from his friend Fourvile warning him against the proposed trip. This was indorsed: Possibly he is right; but it is now too late to with draw"
 The will is very short. The opening paragraph includes the following: My prCsentimerts tell me that this terri ble journey will signify my death" The tsctator's small fortune of few thousand marks is divided between his brother and sister. He bequeaihs his large library of scientific works 10 his brother on condition that he in turn bequeath 1t to public library.
