GOAT succuMes TO SMALLPOX
Faithful Animal Contracts Disease
From Its Young Master.

CHICAGO, Ill. Nov. ia pet billy
goat in the family of Michael Didier
OF Mulford street and Ridge avenue.
which died yesterday of smallpox, is
the first fatality to be recorded to
that epidemic which is now raging at
Evanston, and is also the first case
on record, SO far as known, by DR.. w.
II. Parkes, the health commissioner of
the city, in which a member OF the
capra family has succumbed to this
disease.
Two weeks ago, when young Frank
Didier. the goats master, contracted
smallpox and was confined to his room
the goat appeared inconsolable. One
day last week the animal walked into
a door of the house. which had been
left open, and defying the quarantine,
roamed about the house until it en-
tered the room where its master lay.
The goat rubbed its nose against the
boys face and licked his hand until
he was discovered by the nurse and
summarily expelled from the house.
An appeal has been made by Mayor
Patten to the citizens of Evanston for
aid in stamping out the smallpox cpl
demic which has grown to alarming
proportions. At the city council last
night the mayor read his letter aD-
pealing for funds and the letter will
be sent today to all the citizens of the
place. Mayor Patton asks for $4,000
to be raised by subscription, part of
which will be used to build an isola-
tion hospital.

WILLIAMS
MOVEMENT is

] LONDON. Nov. 15.-Emperor Will
liam has concluded his visit to the
king at Sandringham and next week
| Will be the guest of Lord Lonsdale at
Lowther castle, near Penrith. The
| Earl of Lonsdale enjoys particular
| favor with the emperor. in fact he is
| the only British nobleman whom the
emperor honors with visit. and it is
needless to say that no expense has
been spared in providing an entertain
ment for the imperial guest. On the
occasion of the emperor's four days
visit to Lowther castle in 1895, 1t is
known that Lord Lonsdale expended
close upon a million dollars, and there
is reason to believe that an even larg-
er sum will be spent on the present
occasion.
Lord Lonsdale owes his favor with
the emperor chiefly to the fact that he
was the first member of the British
nobility to display an active interest
in German affairs other than political.
He was one of the first British yacht
owners to go to Kiel and to join the
Imperial yacht club, and as he has a
beautiful craft the emperor frequently
visited him on board sailed with him
and became his friend. Each year
since then Lord Lonsdale has been in
vited to the army maneuvers, where,
no matter how many German and for
eign kings, rulers and princes of the
blood may be present. the earl al
always is accorded place in the very
front rank, with officers and servants
to wait on him and imperial horses
and carriages at his disposal.
The marked distinction with which
the earl is received everywhere in
Germany has had the effect of great
raising his social prestige in England.
Prior to the time the emperor made
his acquaintance he cannot be said
to have enjoyed either the regard or
respect OF his fellow countrymen. He
had been mixed up in all sorts OF
queer affairs and unsavory scandals,
in controversies and brawls (notably
his fistic encounter with Sir George
Chetwynd in Hyde park on the sub
ject of Mrs. Langtry) so much so, in
deed, that on one occasion the curate
of well known and fashionable par
ish was actually dismissed by his rec
tor for having been seen in the earfs
company. The emperor's friendship,
however, has resulted in people in
England looking upon the earl with a
good deal more favor and indulgence.
Lowther castle, where the earl will
entertain his imperial guest and the
to meet him, is one of the most impos
ing mansions in the north. Its great
terrace is nearly mile in length, and
is carried along the brink of steep
cliff, which overlooks a part of the
park, with forest trees of immense
growth and well replenished with
deer. The park of the emperor OF
China, at Gehol, is called the para
disc of ten thousand trees" and Lord
Mccartney. ambassador to China, in
one of his letters, says: IF any place
can be said in any. respect to have sim
liar features to the western park OF
Van Shoe Yeen it is at Lowther."
