Thus wrote Abram c. Eby, mayor

Of mankind must starve or stand In"
In this letter Eby also specified that
he would meet no one except the
president or some high official OF

SMALLPOX EPIDEMIC
THREATENED
DISEASE RAPIDLY SPREADING
AND WILL HAVE UPPER
HAND UNLESS STOPPED.

With a number of registered cases
of smallpox and several others which
have not yet been reported in the city.
Missoula appears on the face of 1t to
be i'm for an epidemic. The recent
state law doing away with the small
pox quarantine and allowing anybody
free access to or exit from the sick
room has made affairs unusually crit
zeal for the careless. and unless the
people of Missoula take some steps
10 prevent it. they are going to be in
for siege before very long
The burden of the affair all lies with
the public now. Speaking of the mat
ter last night. DIR. III. Il. Farnsworth
said: THE recent state law in regard
To the disease has made the vigilance
of the people doubly necessary. II is
now possible for "A person To enter or
leave the bedside of a smallpox pa
tient freely and without the slightest
restriction. Do | believe that yaccin
alton will render the subject immune"
BY all means. There is enough prac-
teal and documentary evidence OBJ
tainahlc to make that fact certain
beyond Il doubt There is not the least
doubt in my mind on that subject.
and it is up to each person to render
himself immune. There is one thing.
however. that should be attended To.
While the house of a smallpox patient
cannot be quarantined. II should be
placardea So as To show the public
that smallpox is there. In this way
no one who il afraid Of the disease
need get into touch with 1t. In re-
gard tn the disease as found in iodg-
ing houses among common laborers
and construction crews. for instance.
the remedy must be found by the
county commissioners. They must
handle this in such a way as tn make
contagion impossible
This is the most serious part of the
question, II is these people who are
the most dangerous, \ single crew
of foreign railroad workers can do a
lot To spread the disease. Their un-
healthy conditions and their careless
ness makes them liable To an unusual
degree and large number of the
existing cases are found among these
people. In regard To this phase of
the question. Health Marshall May
said last night: 1t is almost impossi-
sent a man out To the pest house.
but the county refused To care for
him and would not even furnish him
food. ! managed To get some food
out there. but he couldn't cook and

blame them. for those circumstances

the cause q much of the trouble. II

WAS tried wps passed by the state
Legislature in 1895. and at that time
there were nn moving pictures In the

the law does lot apply to such forms

quoted, those by the prosecution at

ed. Shrubb while running as an anna
teur under the colors of the South
London Harriers and the West Of
Scotland Harriers, hung up worlds
records at all distances from two to
eleven miles that have never been
equaled.
His time for two miles was 8 min

American figures of 8 minutes 27 As

Canadian, who used to sport the Mer-
curry foot of the New York Athletic

On form Shrubb easily should out

Some of the experts, however, assert
that Allie is so fast for fifteen miles
that he will gain such lead on Long
boat that he will be able to lie down
and take rest before Longboat gets
up to him.
That Shrubb respects Longboat's
prowess at twenty-five miles is evinced
by the Englishman's attempt to force
Longboat to post a $4,000 forfeit to
meet him in series of ten. fifteen
and twenty mile races after the COM
ing contest.
Shrubb is so far superior to the ma
jority Of professional runners that he
has had to run them in relays, none
