The Diphtheria and Scarlet Fever
Conditions.
Rock Hill Herald.
There Is no Improvement in the
diptheria conditions. There are
three recent cases in the family
of Mr.. f. B. Cook and Yesterday
two of Mr.. w. j. Caveny's chill
dren developed the disease, and
in addition there is another case
in the country-on the farm of
Mr.. w. G. Hntchison.
Another case of scarlet fever
has developed at the Arcade Mill.
1t is IN the family of Mr.. Houze
Garrison.
In addition Prof. j. w. Thom-
son, in wnoss family a case of
scarlet fever developed while they
were in Ahneville, returned to tho
CITY Friday night with his chill
dren. The child who was attacked
is better, but has not yet passed
the time when the disease may he
communicated to another child.
Indeed, no disease is more infec-
tious than scarlet fever, anthori-
ties agreeing that it is still con
tageous for month or longer af-
ter all signs of the disease have
disappeared.
There is fear of an epidemic of
thess diseases, but if each parent
will begin by keeping his children
at home until the danger is passed,
we may be able to prevent such
calamity. If parents will not do
this, the board of health ought
not to hesitate to quarantine any
home in which thero may be a
patient. But of course no good
citizen will act so as to require
that this should be done.

 ''The bright black eye. the melting blue, I cannot choose between the two; But that is dearest all the while Which wears for me the sweetest
 smile.''
 So sings the poet.
 The prettiest eye is not always the perfect eye in an optical sense. The smiling eye is more frequently without defect, simply because people with de- fective eyes are not often possessed of happy. jovial dispositions.

RESCUED FROM THE TOMB.
Father at Last Sees Daughter Who
for Thirty Years He
Believed Dead.

Some friend mails us the following in
teresting article clipped from the Kansas
City Daily Drover's Telegram, and the
circumstance related will be remembered
by some Of the older residents of this
vicinity.
Mrs. e. l.. Hesen, Davenport, Ola. y
milliner, is entertaining her father.
Martin Partin, of Missouri, and though
a married woman with family, this is
the first time she has eyer had an op-
portunity of conversing with him. The
last time Partin heard of his daughter
previous to this visit she was living in
her coffin.
Thirty years ago, when Partin's
daughter was six months of age, the
family lived at Decatur City, Iowa. The
fathers interests called him to Califor.
MIA about that. time, and while he was in
the far west word was sent to him that
MS little daughter was dangerously ill
with disease of the throat and nose
and that an operation would have to be
performed to save her life. The next
word wss that the operation had been
performed and that az result the child
had died and the body awaited burial.
This being the last link that connected
Partin with Iowa, he did not come back
there, but went to another part of the
country and left nc address behind him.
The infant did seem to be dead, and
was laid out and prepared for burial
For day and half the child lay in her
coffin. Then it was discovered that the
spark of life still fingered. The little
one was brought back from the brink of
the grave. She lived, and it was decided
to send the news TO the father, but the
father could not be found. The child
was adopted by family Of strangers
and grew up without even knowing the
name of her father. 1t was not until a
few days ago that she learned the story
of her life, and since then she has been
in the earnest search that has just been
rewarded with success.

Railroad Boom Busted.

Just as Lineville's nice little railroad
boom was fairly launched, along comes
President Purdy at Des Moines and
knocks it out "colder than wedge
He also knocks out the Eldon. Trenton
cutoff just as effectually. Well, Line
vile will manage to get along without
either of them. This is what the Des
Moines Capital reports Col. Purdy to
have said about both of the extensions:
president Purdy, of the Chicago
Rock Island & Pacific railroad, who
passed through the city yesterday, EN-.
phatically denied the story sent out
from Chicago that the Rock Island
would extend the lndianola branch to
Lineville, Mo-, where a connection

declared MIR. Purdy. "This is the first
time ] haYe. heard Of the extension of
that branch. have been reading in
the Chicago papers 0fseveral extensions
in Iowa, but always attributed their
source to some reporter who happened
to be hard up for story. You news
paper men find it much easier to build
railroads than we railroad men do.
"The Rock Island will not improve
much in this section of the country this
year. In fact, we have our hands full
at the present time constructing line
to FL Paso, Texas, from Liberal, Kansas,
a distance of 26O miles. For that reason
you can put it down that most of these
extensions being talked of are mere
fakes.
"In regard to the proposed cutoff
from Eldon, Iowa, to Trenton, Mo-, y
continued Col. Purdy, 81 can say that
we have thought well of this improve
ment, but as yet have done nothing in
the premises. With the great amount
of work we have on hand it is safe to
say that we cannot undertake these inn.
provements this year. The board of d.
rectors favor the cutoff from Eldon to
Trenton, but whether it will be present
ed to the board this year or not | can
not say, although it is my impression
it will not be. "-Lineville Tribune.

Uncle Thomas Beal returned from
Kansas last week where he purchased a
,6OO-acre ranch for which he paid $27,-
600. The ranch is located in fourth
county from the river. MIR. Beal traded
his brick residence here in on said prop
erty at SD 900. Uncle Tom has no in
tention of going to Kansas but will
probably build for himself and wife a
smaller house on one Of the lots in his
new addition. Clever Beal will proba-
bly, remove to the ranch as soon as they
get possession which will be in nearly q
year. The sale was made through the
real estate agency Of Sargent & Tedrow.
