SMALLPOX is SPREADING.
Minneapolis Is Threatened-Care
Necessary for All Towns.

The smallpox epidemic which has
had Solomon in it's grip for several
weeks seems to be spreading and is
now threatening Minneapolis, where
every possible measure is being TAX
en- to check its advance. The schools
there were ordered closed last week.
Unless rigid precautions are taken
here Abilene many find itself in the
same predicament. The following
dispatch from Minneapolis will be
OF interest;
Thursday morning by order Of the
county health officer, the city schools
were ordered closed for two weeks.
The children were sent home and
ordered to remain off the streets.
1t is expected that two weeks will
be sufficient time to demonstrate
that there is no further danger Of
spread of small pox through the
schools.
The action Of closing the schools,
not an unwise measure in itself, was
made almost imperative by the In
creasing number Of absences caused
by parents keeping their children
out Of school. In one room Of fifty
one pupils twenty were absent this
morning.
As an additional precautlon public
gatherings are being discouraged, and
the health officer warns pupils not
to assemble in numbers in the post
office while the mail is being dis

Whatever DR.. Cook may have ac-

is certainly doing a good job writ
ing his sto.y in Hampton's. In the
current issue he tells of his over
TwheIming receptions after he reached
civilization. He had anticipated
only a mild interest and when he
was flooded with attention it fairly
wore him out. In the sixty days
after he landed in America he at
tended over 200 dinners and banquets
besides lecturing. Four hours of
sleep a night were all he could obtain
and he says that in the end he was
merely an automaton and could not
think. He says that had he been
shrewd he could have made $780,
900 but he only got about $4,000.
