Smallpox Rumor.

A rumor that smallpox had been dis
covered in the First ward was circulated
this week, and until the Galsity of the
rumor had been established considerable
uneasiness was felt by those who had
received the information. According to
the report the case was located in the
home of Polish family residing in the
alley at the rear of the Municipal build
ing.
A diligent search of the premises and
all the houses of the vicinity was made
and nothing was found to substantiate
the rumor or even to give a basis for the
report. Local physicians also deny all
knowledge of the existence of the disease
in town. The origin of the falsehood
has not yet been located.

The Firemen's Ball.

Tonight the great ball of the Free
land fire department will be held at
Krells hall. The members of the two
companies have worked for weeks to
make the ball success, and there is
every indication that the affair will be
one of the largest Of the season.
The committees appointed to sell
tickets have thoroughly canvassed the
town and have met with encouraging
receptions in every ward. Freeland
people always have warm spot in their
hearts for their fire fighters, and the
latter deserve all the appreciation that
the public can show.

ARMED GUARDS
Protect HEALTH
How Smallpox Is Kept Out
Of Wilkesbarre.
Every Avenue of Approach
to the City Blocked by
Neutrality-suspicious.
antine a Success.

II war waged up and down the Wyom-
ing valley, and Wilkesbarre was beset
on every side by the enemy, her ap-
proaches could hardly be better guarded
than they are now. At every bridge
and road entrance, north, south and
west, are alert and vigilant men, day
and night, armed, who stop every car,
wagon and pedestrian. To the east the
mountains arise and there are no towns.
All this precautlon is due to the fact
that smallpox surrounds the city on
three sides. 1t is epidemic iD Plymouth,
Wyoming, Maltby, Sturmerville, East
Pittston and West Pittston, and further
north in Avoca, Minooka, Hughestown
and Scranton.
For weeks precautionary measures
have been taken and this week they
grew to the present proportions.
The regulations require that no man,
woman, or child, shall be admitted to
given by the Board of Health of the
place where the holder lives. In order
to get pass it is necessary to be en-
ployed in Wilkesbarre, to have import
ant business there, and-most necessary
that the applicant shall have been re-
Gently vaccnated.
In the city the same rule applies. To
leave the town one must also have "a
pass, even If it is but to pass the western
end of the bridges to go skating. Dis
cretion is used in issuing them too, and
any violation of the rules is severely
punished.
The patrol stops every street car
entering the city, and two of the officers
walk through it, every person being
required to show a pass or, not having
one to go back again.
All sorts OF annoyances have been
caused, but the guards are strict and
viglant and allow none to escape.
With wagons and carriages the same
system is used, and anyone attempting
to get past without showing pass is
arrested.
A somewhat similar quarantine is
established on the west side by the
afflicted towns, one against the others.
so that the unfortunate resident Of the
west side must run a gauntlet OF care
full guards and keep his pass ready to
answer the numerous demands to 'show
your pass"
1t is costing the city a great deal OF
money to keep up this vigiant guard,
but so far it has kept the smallpox out,
and it is expected to continue efficient
as long as it is strictly enforced.

ed. DR.. Leith then took charge Of the
easket and removed it to an undertake
ing establishment, where he performed
the autopsy.
The physician was unable to find any
trace of the bullet, which is supposed to
have caused the death. The cause for
this unusual action on the part of the
Luzerne county coroner is contained in
the fact that four distinct antopsies
disclose the bullet which is supposed to
have caused Hanlon's death.

did not see it, was struck, and hurled
hundred feet and instantly killed.
Scranton Municipal League is still
getting in its work. \ number of liquor

licenses of ten more liquor dealers were
revoked by the court.

THEATRICAL.

"a Trip to Buffalo," the vaudeville
extravaganza which was the hit of the
Pan n-America theatrical offerings at the
Buffalo Exposition, will be seen in Free
land next week. The production is un-
der the direction of Charles p. Salisbury,
manager of wide experience, who has
secured company of artists that will
compare fayorably with the most nota BILE
The stage settings are especially elabor-
ate, particularly the third act which
shows the Esplanade and Midway Of
of the Exposition, while the costuming
may be described with the liberel use of
superelatives without straining point.
1t is hardly necessary to call attention
to the music of "A Trip to Buffalo, "nas-
much as the catchy nun bers are being
whstled in every city in this country.
The engagement will be one of the
most important theatrical offerings of
the season and will prove treat to
those who failed to see the Exposition
and most pleasant reminder of chose
who did.
/ / /
Manager McMenamin, of the opera
house, and Manager Nahm, of the Waite
Comedy Company, mutually agreed last
evening to end the engagement of the
Waite Company, and at the close of last
nights performance the company de-
parted. On Wednesday evening "The
War of Wealth" was presented to a
small audience and last night the at
tendance was less than on the previous
evening. The company is an unusually
good one, but repertoire organizations
seldom succeed in drawing Freeland
theatre goers, and it was more profitable
to both managers to close than to con-
tinue playing to small audiedces.

WAR ESTIMATES
GREATLY REDUCED

Washington, Nov. 25.-Secretary
Root has just completed his estimates
for the next fiscal year, and he has
succeeded in effecting marked re
duction in the amount of money re-
CURED for the support of the army
and War Department. Excluding riv
er and harbor appropriations, over
which the department has little con
troll. as they are directed largely by
Congress, the secretary said that the
estimates for each of the last five fis
cal years shows an annual average
increase from the estimates of the
previous year of about $i4. 500 900
The estimates for the next year show
a net decrease of $31 APO, 400 COM
Tor the current fiscal year. and the de-
crease as compared with the curren.
appropriations is $20.9i7,960.
The estimates for the military es-
.abishment, which includes all items
tor the support of the army and the
military academy. show net reduc-
ion of s2l,S62,92l from the estimates
for 1903. The pay of the army is re-
duced more than $30O0,0O0 in conse-
quence of the reduction of the force.
The cost of subsistence is reduced
more than SO 500 900, and the expense
of barracks and quarters in the Phil
ipppines is reduced $1,O0O,O00 for the
same reason. The cost of army trans
portation has been reduced $9.000.000
as a result of the peaceful conditions
now existing in the archipelago.
