Instructions were received by District Attorney John Rustgard in the last mail to enforce the provisions of the law in this respect and this morning Mir. Rustgard notified Mar shal 9. L. Faulkner by letter that the law must be enforced and Marshal Faulkner was requested to notify all holders of saloon licenses within the Division that the law of Sunday clos ing will be strictly enforced.

 The letter giving instructions to Dis trict Attorney Rustgard contained ad- vices that several complaints had been lodged with the Department of Justice by letters from residents of Juneau, Sitka and other places in the Division

SMALLPOX CASE
 PAST ALL DANCER

James Morris, an employee of the Chichagoff mine, who has been iIl the detention hospital out on the Salmon creek road since April and is being treated for smallpox, is reported to be getting along fine and will only re- quire careful watching now until his complete recovery, The patient came to Juneau aboard the seamship Al-Ki, landing here March S1. On the morn- Ing of April he called at the office of Dr. L. o. Egginton for treatment. His case was soon diagnosed as small pox and immediate steps were taken to isolate the case and to make pre- cautions against further contagion as well as to prevent a panic in town.
 All of the points visited by the pa. tlent after his arrival in Juneau were sought out and quietly fumigated.
 Acting Gov. Charles E. Davidson was notified as required by law, and he promptly notified the Collector of Gus toms at Seattle to have the Al.Ki fu- upon her arrival there, and requested the Treasury Department to take the steps necessary foryprotect-
 ng against the spread of the disease, He also investigated the proceedings of the municipal government and ap- proved of what has been done.
 Upon the AlKrs arrival at Puget Sound the ship was fumigated and has arrived on another voyage since bring ing the case here. Thus far there has been no other cases reported 2r any indication of the disease fro any point in Southeastern Alaska.
 The incubation period is no past, Dr. Eggington says, and ther' is no longer danger of any contagion tesult- ing from the presence of this case which is receiving the best of atten- tion. Dr. Palmer of Douglas, was called in consultation by Dr. Eggin- ton and agrees with the latter that the case is virulent smallpox.
 Dr. Egginton desires to thank the and city officials and the for helping to prevent an epidemic and panic.
 Mir Morris is a member of the Be- nevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and the local lodge has been render. ing all the care and attention possible.
