An Experience With Smallpox.

Mrs. Mary Hays, residing in Iowa, sister
of Messrs Frank and Maurice Albaugh, of
this place, had an experience with smallpox
that few are called upon to undergo. Her
daughter, who was boarding with her uncle,
Mr.. William Hays, in Grinnell, was attacked
with smallpox, which had been taken to Grin.
nell from the Indian reservation nearby and
which was, at first, thought TO be chicken
pox. Mrs Hays took her daughter home
and with them four members of Mr.. William
Hays family, all of whom had the disease. -
About the time these were convalescent or
well, Mrs. Hays took the disease. No deaths
occurred and all have fully recovered.
November was cold month. The Climate
and Crop Service Report of the Weather
Bureau gives the temperature six degrees
below the normal for the month, being 1919
degrees. The highest temperature at Mt,
st. Mary's was 65 degrees on the 1st; the
lowest 20 degrees on the 2Sth. The rainfall
was also below the norma 10 As inch.
A period of drought that extended from
the middle of October until the 23rd of No,
vember WAS quite hurtful to grain, but very
decided Improvement took place later.

warned of their danger and knew
they were taking their lives in

lieved they would have returned

alive. Search parties are i'm
possible, owing to the ruinous

Fatal California.

San Francsco-The list of fatalities
attending the railroad collision at
Byron, Cal, Is receiving frequent ad-
ditions at the Southern Pacific hospital
in this city, where 22 of the victims
have been brought. Eight deaths are
reported beside the 10 killed outright.
A telegram from Fresno announces
the death of ID. ]. Vernon, another of
the injured.
Other patients are reported In a
critical condition.
AS inquiry Is progressing into the
cause of the collision, a new complex
ion Is given to the origin of the dis
aster. Immediately following the
meeting of the trains the supposition
was advanced that Engineer Mcclure
of the Stockton Flyer was largely at
fault. Recent developments places
the burned and bruised engineer In a
different light. 1t is acknowledged
that the leak in the boiled of the Owl
engine delayed the progress Of the
train and when 1t reached Byron there
had been considerable schedule time
lost. When Conductor William Dolan
of the Owl stopped at Byron he found
freight train standing on the other
track and he sought to secure its en-
gine to supplant the faulty one OF the
Owl. 1t is asserted that considerable
time was lost in trying to arrange the
transfer before the plan was found un.
availng and then II was decided to
send fagman to signal the approach
ing local.

TRADE REPORT.

New York r. G.. Dun G. Co.'S week
ly review OF trade last week says:
Holiday trade has exceeded the most
sanguine expectations and retail deal
ings in all staple lines Of merchandise
are well maintained, with the better
grades of goods in brisk demand.
Wholesome conditions prevail in most
sections of the country, although in
parts of the southwest the season has
fallen behind the average. Even in
these cases reports are encouraging
for the future. Industrial plants are
well employed, orders running far in
the future and labor controversies are
rare. The only adverse feature Of the
situation is the fact that supplies OF
fuel are utterly inadequate, both for
household and manufacturing uses,
snow increasing the delay for deliver
ing.
