MORE SMALLPOX VICTIMS
Two New Cases Of Contagion Found
a 8essemer Quarries.
BOTH HAVE VERY MILD ATTACK
Robert Cain Has cen Discharged
From Care of Physicians, and
w A. re tn Also We'll.

DR.. Sponseller, the county II alth
officer, reports two new cases Of
smallpox at the Besse1ner quarries,
one Of the victims being a little white
hild aud the other a colored man
Both of the new victims, however,
are members of the families in which
there have been cases, ard as both
have been under strict quarantine
since the contagion first made its ap.
pearance, these new cases cannot be
considered as spread OF the disease.
Both new cases are very mild, aud no
serious consequences arc anticipated.
This makes total of seven cases st
the Bessemer quarries. The other five
cases are all getting along nicely, the
danger point in each one having been
passed. While there may be some fresh
cases among the persons already under
quarantine, the physicians in charge
do no anticipate spread of the cou-
tagion outside of these limits.
The work at the quarries will be re-
sumed as soon as the weather will
permit Some of the workmen have
quit their jobs there, but nearly all
will return when they see that there
is no further danger
CAIN Is WELL.
Robert Cain, who fell a victim TO
the disease several weeks ago, has
been discharged from the care of DIR.
Clay as entirely cured. Quarantine
was lifted from his home Monday
morning by DR.. Sponseller, and all
necessarV precautions were taken by
the physicians in charge to disinfect
the premises.
MI W. f. Breth, who was attacked
about tbs same time as Cain, is also
well, but will not be discharged from
the care of the physicians for several
days. He will be slightly marked, bat
otherwise will ba in as good health as
before he fell victim to the coDta-
gion.
Ont of total of nine cases, there
has not teen a single death, which is
a record that the physicians in charge
may feel pardonable pride in.

Nothing, except to express my
thanks for the patience and courteous

Senator Elkins denies that any rail-

While removing her household goods
to place of safety during the Brooklyn
fire, Mrs Clarence Walker had the mis-
fortune to fracture her ankle.
A few tobacco items came under our
observation a few days ago, which no
doubt are matter of interest to some
who would desire to know the value of
an acre of this product. Albert Fessen-
den shipped in 1926 pounds raised on

$l147.5O. And still there are others.
The alarm OF fire which was sounded
about three thirty Sunday morning,
brought out many Of our citizens, ready
and willing to assist the fire company if
needed. The fire was found to be in the
Phifer residence, corner of Third and
Church streets, and occupied by Fred
James. The fire originated in the cellar
where basket of laundry clothes were,
and what caused it is unknown, but sup
posed to have been by the mice gnawing
on dropped match. No other cause
can be assigned.

carrying broke, spilling the kerosene
over her clothing which Immediately ig-

causing her untold agony, her first
thought was of her children and with
heroic effort she succeeded in placing
them in safety before turning her atten-

Hansen, who was in the barn at the
time, was attracted by the blaze and
succeeded in extinguishing the fire on
her clothing. She then walked to a
neighboring farm house before breaking
down. Mrs Hanson was formerly a Mil

went to her home Friday and accom-
panied the remains back here for burial.

The True Test of Oysters.

'aThe best oyster experts that I know
Of" said the captain of an oyster boat.
Judge an oyster by the smell instead
of by the taste. There is something
about the smell of any oyster that in
dicates it's condition to me much plain
er than does the taste. People buy
them and eat them probably on ac-
count Of their taste. So also do they
buy tea, coffee and the various grades
of whisky and brandy for their taste
but all experts on those things pass
upon them entirely by their SMELL The
professional tea faster or whisky tast-
er, so called, never tastes them, but
simply arrives at their taste by their
peculiarities of flavor or, to speak
plainly, smell. / can tell what price
a load of oysters will be rated at when
they arrive at the wharf here by OPEN
ing up the hold of the boat and smell
ing. In eight cases out of ten 1 am
right 1t strikes oystermen as strange
when they see persons going about
from boat to boat, as they lie at the
wharf, tasting oysters before they con-
clude to buy. Taste is all right but
if they don't smell right they will never
taste right. Washington STAR

The whole organ has become over

The cod, in fact, are blind. The most
interesting feature in this change is the
extraordinary rapidity with which in
creased supply of light rays has over
developed the organ for it's use. It has
taken place not by slow degrees from
individual to individual, but in course
Of time to be measured by months and

this example is a measure of the rapid
ity with which such changes take place
among fishes, the adaptation Of those
creatures which have migrated from
the shallow waters of the deep seas,
shown by the total loss or enormous
development of their eyes and the
growth of Illuminating organs to light
the abyss, may have been as rapid as
it is marvelous--Lond Spectator.
