VERY INDIGNANT
Are Citizens Of Norwalk Over
Exaggerated Reports Of
alipox Scare.

Norwalk, Aug. 6.-Outrageous re-
ports have been sent out from neigh.
boring towns, including Milan, Mon
roeville and Bellevue, about tho
smallpox scare in this city for the
purpose CT injhring Norwalk in
business way. Mayor Curtis of Milan,
who caused the stoppage of the Lake
Shore electric cars passing through
Norwalk, is liable to get himself into
serious trouble on account of his ac-
ton, as the road carries United States
mail. The company on this account
and because Superintendent Owen Of
the Lake Shore was arrested yester-
day and locked in TAIL, have applied
to the United States court for redress.
No cars have been running from Nor
walk to Sandusky' through Milan
since Sunday morning. ,~.oas A..
The smallpox reports are greatly
exaggerated. Some 20 cases in all
exist and every one of them of very
mild varioloid form.

with the thickness of hail.
With a smile of triumph the outlaw
then calmly took up one of his heavy
pistols and placing it to his head,
pulled the trigger, falling in heap
almost at the feet of the hounds Of
justice. There was absolutely no
chance to escape from the posse this
time, Notwithstanding the cleverness
of Tracy in that regard.
