Who Checked Small
pox in Wellsville
Says Our Correspond
ent from that City.

In looking over the last issue of the
Republican | noticed the report of the
health of the people Of Cache Co. by
our county health officer, DR.. W. Is.
Parkinson, in which he states that
the epidemic of small pox was stamp
ed out by the able assistance OF w. Il.
Parkinson, Jr.. in the south. with
all respect to our new resident, the
people of Wclsvile believe in placing
honor where it is due, and our
health officer Or. G. f. Phillips,is the
man to whom we give the honor OF
stamping out the epidemic of small
pox in this part of Cache Co. One
month ago there were b cases Of
small pox of light form in this burg,
and by the immediate action of our
health officer, DR.. G. +. Phillips, to-
day there isn't one case. Our health
officer quarantincd the town against
Mantua last week and every precau-
ion is being taken to keep people
from that place from passing through
this city.
On Christmas day the band was out
and made an effort to give the town
some music. but the cold was so in
tense that the music frozc up, or the
Instruments rather, and the effort was
cut short. At some future day If we
should happen to have Il thaw, we
may hear music floating in the air.
The people of Wellsyille are very
fond of music and keep the best at
home. especially on holidays.

Being asked whether there was any
thing about either of them that helped
to fix his attention upon them, he an

Being asked to explain himself, said
he didn't see much what there was

Why, it was simple enough Being
in the rear of the train, he was con

Recovering himself, he jumped from
his van and alighted on his feet, but
was struck by fragment of some
thing and knocked down. He rose to
his feet again. though suffering from
wounds in the head, hand an knee,
and saw sight the like of which he
had never seen before. With his keys
in mis- hand, he ran up and down the
line, hardly knowing what he was
doing. AS soon as he began to get
his senses back. which had been pret.
ty well knocked out of him, he un.
locked all the doors of the carriages
that he came to, though they we're
already unlocked on one side. After
he had done all he could. he went and
sat down by the side of the line, for
he began to turn faint and dizzy.
While he sat there he saw tall
rather thin, elderly gentleman max

limped little as he walked. AS this
latter came nearer he recognized him
as being the same individual who had
given him the tip, and told him to
keep anyone else from getting into
the carriage.
Witness noticed that his face was
ghastly. and that he breathed like a
man who had been running race,
but naturally put it down to the ter
rible shock and the fright caused by
the accident. AS he came up to him,

The Other Passenger.

The inquiry into the death OF Mr..
Silas Burritt was held at the Wheat

dedicated to the flowing bowl and the
promotion of social Intercourse

DIR. Jeremiah Cartwright was called
to prove the finding of the body-its
position, appearance and subsequent
removal to the vestry of the old
church, and his examination of the

that the bullet which had caused it

arms. but had always been remark
able for an unusual amount of nerv-
business, almost amounting to horror,
with regard to anything of the kind, in
consequence of an accident, with a
tragical termination, which he had
once witnessed. DR.. jeremiah Cart
wright, recalled at this juncture, here
stated his firm conviction that the
wound had not been self-,nflicted,
which he proceeded to prove, to his
own satisfaction and the entire be-
wilderment of everybody else present,
by the aid of great many polysylla-
bic expressions and torrent of pro-
fessional phraseology, which swept
everyone off their feet, but which, on
being filtered down for the benefit of
the unlearned. merely amounted to
the following facts, viz, that the edges
of the wound by which the bullet had
made it's entrance, were torn and
lacerated. as well as backened and
burnt by the action of the sanpow-
der. that the skin in the vicinity of
the wound was blistered, the bleeding
slight. and chiefly from the orifice of
exit, and the two openings in the
scalp nearly opposite each other
DR.. Cartwright, having brought his
evidence to conclusion, now gave
place to another witness, and one in
whose power it might be to help to
unravel the mystery This last was
the guard of the 4:30 tran-an in
telligent looking man, who, with
bandage round his head and one arm
in sling, bore tokens of the injuries
he had received in jumping from the
train while it was in motion.
On being questioned as to what he
knew of the matter, he replied. with
out any hesitation, that he remem-
bered the fourth carriage from the
engine well. and the passengers that
1t contained in that particular com
partment.
Was he sure that there was more
than one passenger ir that compart-
ment of the carriage referred to-"

he fthe gaa-D spoke to him and
said, Glad to see you're safe, sir,
hope the other gent is the same?"
But he only stared at him in a queer,
dazed sort of way, without making
any answer, and passed on down the
line.
AT last, after some debate. the YER
dict agreed upon was:
"Wilful murder against some person
or persons unknown"
Ted Burritt and his friend the doc
tor left the place together.
