Smallpox at Winnemucca.
The Silver State says:

lhC oiiNFI DbdbS says.
There are three cases Of smallpox in
W~innemucca. Brakeman WI Sorrey,
who resides on railroad street opposite
the depot, has been i'll for several days,
and Monday DR.. Giroux pronounced the
case one of smallpox. The doctor mott
fed the State Board OF Health and ask
ed for instructions, but none had been
rece we'd up to noon Monday. AS Win
emucci is not within the State Boards
vaccination territory it presumably
makes no difference whether there is
smallox here or not.
Monday Conductor Earl Pease whose
residence is also near the depot, was
taken down and DR.. Samuels pronounced
the symptoms those OF smallpox.
Tuesday morning a fireman named
joyce, whose face was all broken cut,
came down town, and his case was also
pronounced smallpox. He vent back to
the depot and was denied admission to
his lodgings. He was around there sew
eral hours and many people, including
children, were exposed. Finally Joyce
was placed in a caboose and it was run
out to the mill sidetrack. a half mile. east
Of town. A nurse was hired to take care
Of him.
SO far all that has been done in the
way OF quarantining was the action tax IN
by Agent Kitto of the Southern Pacific
and Commissioner Trousdale in the case
of Joyce. The other cases are not under
quarantine except so far rs the instruc-
tons Of the physicians might be SO con-
sidered. There is another family hvingi in
the same house with both Pease and
Sorey and there is nothing TO keep the
disease from spreading in the absence Of
a quarantine.
AN the cases SO far reported are so
mild that there was difficulty in dag
nosing them as being smallpox to a GER
tainty. There is no need of a scare, but
every %precaution should be taken and
some steps should be taken without fur
Their delay toward putting a strict quar-
antine in effect.
All the smallpox patients are railroad
men who have been exposed to the dis
ease at Wadsworth, where there are now
a number of cases.
The Silver State which arrived this
morning says: There were no new cases
of smallpox reported up TO noon yester.
day. In fact, there is probably one less
than the number announced Tuesday.
Conductor Earl Pease's case is doubtful
and cannot be accurately diagnosed. No
eruptions have appeared aud he is prob
ably not afflicted with smallpox.
DIR. Qiroux received a dispatch from
DR.. Gibson, president Of the State Board
Of Health, Tuesday night appointing
him a quarantine officer.
The caboose pesthouse, on the side
track east of town, has only the one pa.
tient, Fireman Joyce, who is getting
along well, the case being a mild one,
DR.. Samuels is attending him.
The situation here is not alarming in
the least, and the disease will not get a
foothold if ordinary precautions are
taken.

Intere sting. Case.

An interesting case will come up
in the District Court at Virginia
City, New. tomorrow. 1t is the
suit of VIM. Barnes of Golden,
Missouri, against the Western
Union Telegraph Company for
damages. The suit was originally
tried before Judge Talbot at Elko
about two years ago, and judg-
ment given in favor Of Barnes for
$4,000. The case was appealed to
the Supreme Court at Carson, and
that body found that the damages
were excessive and ordered a re-
trial. The case has accordingly
been assigned to Judge Mack's
court. E. S. Harrington is the
attorney for Barnes and Judge r.
b. Carpenter for the defendant.
The story of the plaintiff as Civ
en- at the previous hearing is an
interesting one. He arrived in Og.
den from his home in Missouri on
the morning of February 10, 1895.
He was then a boy of about l6 or
IL and was on his way toa brother
at Lovelock.
He had previously telegraphed
his brother to send him a ticket to
Ogden. He claims that this telc-
rram was never delivered. and to
this rae, he attributes the suffer-
ilgs he afterwards endured, and
upon it he bases his claim for
damages.
1t will be remembered by our
people that this young man on ar
irving here and in trying to beat
his way out on a freight train was
caught under the wheels of a
freight car and had one of his legs
badly mashed, SO that ampntation
WAS necessary, DR.. Hood perform
ing the operation.

A PLEASANT SURPRISE,
In store for Those who Doubt.

When you read that sufferer of

pletely restored to health by using
Smiths Cure-all, you are inclined to
doubt the statement and, in fact, have
no belief in it whatever. The reason
for this is so much is claimed for the
Cure-all it is impossible for anyone to
believe it; if the advertiser confined his
claims to the curing of one disease, as
GO the proprietors of Pyramid Pile
Cure. readers would have much more
faith in published testimonials. Those
familiar with this great remedy know
that testimonials as to it's merit may
be relied upon implicitly, also that the
cures brought about by its use are lit
tie short of marvellous. The genuine
ness of the testimonial here given is
vouched for and is but one of thou
sands received.

of 50-cent Pyramid Pile Cure that en-

CONGRESS OF EX-SLAVES.
To Be Held, But Better COlOred Ele.
ment Against Its Purpose.

A meeting of the National Ex-Slaves
Congress is to be held in this city be-
ginning tomorrow and continuing
through Tuesday and Wednesday, and
is for the purpose Of electing dele
gates to the National Convention
which convenes in Washington on Jan.
A.. One delegate is to be elected to
every 500 members of the Congress.
The purpose of the organization, it
is stated, is to try and secure pensions
for ex-slaves from the federal govern
ment. Similar congresses will be held
throughout the South on the, above
mentioned dates.
Several prominent colored citizens
were asked for information about the
congress, but none of them seemed to
know much of it. Editor Johnson of
the Tribune, said that the better ele-
ment of the city and the South are
opposed to the congress, if it is to be
what they generally suppose it to be.
The organization has been gotten. up,
he said, by agents who have circulated
among the colored people and enrolled
many as members, collecting a mem
bership fee from each, and which the
better colored population condemn. The
organization has existed in the South
for sevral years.
1T is simply a scheme" he
said, IF this gathering is the
same I think it, to make money by
a few. We are not in favor of it for
the reason that we don't think, even
if the congress is held, that any good
can ever come of the efforts in the in
terest of ex-slaves, and on that account
are having nothing to do with it."
Who the local promoters are or where
the meeting is to be held have not
been announced, but it is understood it
will be in the Duffy Street Hall.
