infected locality: the provision and
maintenance of suitable iSola tiOn hos

infection of smallpox premises and be-
longings; strict inspection of all per-
sons Offering to travel from infected
localities and refusal to carry those
who do not comply with the require
ments. This is the measure relied or
to control the objectors. "cOnscien-
tious'' or otherwise. and is one fully
within the power of the railways to en-
force.

ing eStabliShmentS--par those

condition of further employment. Com
petent vaccinators and supplies of
pure. tested vaccine lymph will be fur

three years of the epidemic. and at the
close of last week there were but
twenty-one smallpox cases in the isola-
ton hospital-five having been re-
ceived and seven discharged during
the week. There was an increase of
thirty-sevcn in the number of deaths

Napoleon Lajoie, the man who has
done more than any single individual
to keep the American and National
leagues from patching up truce,
shows no signs of the load Of RESPONSE
bility which rests upon his shoulders.
The taking of Lajoie from the phila-
delphia National league club by the
American league club at Philadelphia
was one Of the main things which
started the present war between the
two big leagues, and it has been bone
of contention ever since. Its latest de
vclopment is in the war between
Reach and Rogers of the Philadelphia
National league club, which may eX-
tend to the point where it will prove
damaging to the National league as an
organization.
Had Colonel Rogers given LaJole the
extra salary which the sensational bat
ter demanded the whole history OF the
present fight might have been altered.
Lajoie would undoubtedly have been
with the National league yet had ROY

The F. B. Cate Real Estate Agency,


Bank officials often have queer ex-
periences with people over the ques-
ton of proper identification, but the
paying teller of the City Trust compa-
ny had one sprung on him the other
day that was entirely out of the ordi-
nary. A sunburned man who looked
like a sea captain came in with a
check payable to his order which he
wanted to get cashed. The teller was
satisfied that the check was all right
but he didn't know the bearer from
Adam. 1t was nearly 9 O'Clock, and
the man seemed in a great hurry for
the money. He said he knew very few
people in Philadelphia and it would
be impossible for him to get any one
to identify him before the close of
banking hours. "A1aybe this will dc"
he said, taking off his coat and rolling
up his sleeve. There ON his arm was
tattooed his name in india ink, and
the teller decided that no further iden
titcation was neceSsary.-Philadel
