These children of leisure were gath

ories in Africa.
The mayor of Stcubenville, Ohio, has
adopted a unique method of settling
what he calls petty clothesline' quar-
rels between women. He has estab-
lished a fighting room," in which he
locks the women who quarrel over
back yard fences. After an hours
abuse of each other they run down.
Then they invariably become recon-
ciled.
II is claimed that the largest chains
ever made in the United States for Sc
curing ships anchors were made in
four sections, or Shots" each COM
prising 900 feet, so that the total
length of the combined chains is near
ly 1000 feet. Each link averages not
less than 165 pounds weight, an aver
age of about 100 pounds to'the running
foot, making the total weight OF each
anchor section nearly so tons. When
the chains were tested, the testing ma
chimes broke at a strain of 100000
pounds, but none Of the links were
affected.
When the inhabitants Of Sidestrand,
near Cromer, Eng, awoke one morning
a few weeks ago they were surprised
to find that a large portion of a cliff
ON the seashore had sunk into the sea.
Thirty thousand tons Of earth had
fallen .and with it the wall and
portion Of the graveyard of old st.
Michaers. church. The ancient church
tower itself is now in jeopardy, for
during the day following the slip a
further portion Of the cliff crumbled
away, leaving only a few feet be-
tween the tower and its edges. A
grewsome feature Of the slide was the
unearthing of many long buried coftins
and the scattering of human remains
far and wide.

A BIG TIMBER DEAL.
Davenport Parties Purchase 10000
Acres Louisiana Pine Lands.


Special to Times Republican.
Davenport, Jan. 21.-Another big tim
Der deal has just been consummated in
which local interests are heavy. 1t is
the purchase of another tract of $4,000
acres of Louisiana pine lands and the
amount paid therefore will aggregate
In the neighborhood of 100000, the
greater portion of the money being fur
nished by the banks of this city. The
following are the interests represented
in the deal in the north:
Weyerhauser & Denkmann, of Rock
Island; Dimock, Gould & Co., of Mo-
line; Lindsay & Phelps and Richardson
and Lane interests of Davenport. and
Laird & Norton OF Winona.
Hon. Joe r. Lane will be in Chicago
tomorrow for the purpose of closing up
the deal and paying the money. The
details of the conveyance have been
completed, under the contract of sale
and all that is necessary is to pay over
the money and receive the deeds.
The land purchased by the local syn
dlcate is located in Sabine and Vernon
marshes in the state of Louisiana. and
ia in the pine belt which is adjacent to
the Sabine river in the western portion
of the state. This same combination of
interests owns, already, some 10000
acres of timber land in that state, and
the new tract is adjacent the one they
already hold.

THEY'VE GOT 1T BAD.
Davenport Having Serious and Ex'

Davenport Having Serious and Ex-
pensive Time With Smallpox.
Special to Times Republican.
Davenport, Jan. 21.-This city faces
serious situation with regard to small
pox. The number of cases of the dis
ease is on the increase. and the efforts
at combining 1t by quarantine are con-
tinually defeated by the utter careless
ness and disregard of the people OF all
common sense rules for the Isolation OIL
the disease. People smuggie II OUT OF
sight in their homes, and others walk
about the streets with 1t. In the race OF
such criminal carelessness in the spread
of this disease all efforts to stamp II
out with quarantine repression are
likely to fail.
Five new cases In as many different
parts of the city were reported last
week. The majority of them have been
quarantined in their homes. Often the
cases are not reported and families who
have the disease do all in their power
to keep the matter secret
An anonymous letter came to Or.
Preston the physician to the board OF
health. 1t stated that it was written by
an interested neighbor, who had occas-
ion to know that some sort of disease
was being secluded in the Hinrichs
home. The request was made that 1t be
investigated.
The investigation was made. and dis
closed the fact that ten days before DR..
Braunlich had been called to see the
girl in question, but had not been able
to discover any definite cause for her in
disposition. had not been called TO see
her after that, and had not been back
to the house.
It was found, when the home was
investigated Sunday, that the girl had
had the smallpox in regular and I'M
mistakabie form, but had been secluded
in the home, no notice of the existence
OF case of eruptive disease had been
sent to the authorities, and the girl had
gone thru the disease, and was getting
we'll. and giving it to nobody knows how
many other people.
ST. Roberts hospital is practically full
Of patients One or two more might be
wedged into it, but 1t is not to be consid-
cred as available for the housing of any
further number of patients.
All over town there are houses that
are Nnder guard. 1t takes four men to
guard a house. where there is any de-
gree of opposition to the quarantine.
This costs money. The addition OF
many more guards to the present mus
ter roll will make a standing army that
the city will not want to pay for.
Again, this guard. with all the pre-
cautions that have been taken by 1t, is
not able to repress the disease. The
money that has been paid out for its
hire has possibly been we'll spent to a
degree, but there Is now upon us sit
uation that seems to render much fur
Their outlay in this direction needless.
