Is 1T SMALL POX?
The Dreaded Disease Reported to be at
Duncan.

DuuCan.
1t is reported here that about
ten cases Of small pox have broken
out at Duncan. How much truth
there is in the report is difficult to
tell. When the report reached
Clifton the people of that camp
demanded a quarantine against
Duncan. This the people of the
latter place strongly objected to
on the ground that it was not
small pox, only a simple rash.
Supervisor Hill was then appealed
to for the supervisors to take some
action. Supervisor Hill held a
telephone conference with Chair
man Waddill and the result was
that DR.. Platt was employed to go
to Duncan, IN company with
Sheriff Parks and make thorough
investigation. If the doctor finds
it to be small pox the sheriff will
establish a strict quarantine.
Sheriff Parks and DR.. Pratt left
for Duncan last Wednesday.
DR.. Platt, after making a
thorough examination telephoned
us; "No small pox. Nothing but
Cuban itch. About 25 cases here,
some at Clifton and also at Lords
burg. Not necessary to quaran-
tine"

THE great struggle between
labor and capital going on in the
United States now seems further
from settlement than ever. II is
quite likely that general strike
will be ordered which will make it
one Of the worlds most famous
battles. The strike is one of prin-
ciple which will affect the work
ingman of the United States for all
time to come. With the steady
encrouchment of capital on the
rights Of labor this was the newt
able result. 1t is to be hoped that
the great body of Americans now
striking will win the battle. When
it gets to point where J. P. Nor
gan can control the wealth of the
United States by simple nod OF
the head, it is time American man.

with but few strokes was last night ac-

pocketing an entire frame of fifteen balls
with but ten strokes. Five combinations
each pocketing two balls were made.
Mr. Malone is one of the most expert
players in the country. The shots were
all made with apparently little effort and
until six balls had been made on the first
three shots no idea was entertained that
anything unusual was being done. All
Of the shots we're "call shot," that is. the
player announced into what pocket he
intended to drive a certain ball. Ga the
first shot th. ball at one end Of the pyra.
mid was called for the corner, the ball
on the opposite corner being detached
and rolling into the opposite pocket. A
combination for the side followed, which
detached al the same time another ball
which went into the far corner. A
straight combination with the cue ball
opposite the side pocket and the two
object balls at the lower spot pocketed
two more balls. making in all six balls
with but three strokes. Two single shots
were then m1de. than another combin.
alton. Then three other balls were
pocketed singly. The tenth shot was
made on a combination, the second ball
being called on a two-cushion bank.

followed driven into the corner diagonally
