WATCH PORT FOR SMALLPOX.

New York, Jan. 24-Health Com missioner R- s. Coreland issued the following statement yesterday con corning precautions against smallpox being taken by the Health Depart mcnt:
 Ut is announced that smallpox Is raging in sections of Italy. IL is of a virulent typo and is marked by many fatalities. Upon learning of the 1tai- ian situation, even though the danger seemed remote, the New York De partment Of Health took immediate steps to protect the city. Dr. Leland F. Cofer, health otIicsF of the Port of New York, is alive to his responsi- bility in this matter. The closest possible inspection is made of every ship entering the Port of New York. Every passenger from Italy, or who has been in Italy recently, will be vacCinated, if the time since the de- parJure of a ship from an infected port has been less than 16 days. No passenger will be permitted to land until that time has elapsed.
 The New York Health Department is given the name and destination of every person who enters the United States. If he tarries in New York City he will be kept under observa- ton by officials of this department
 until all possible danger has passed
 If he does not remain in the city shall notify the health officials of the place to which he is going. At the i present time there is no occasion fol alarm and no need now for us to or. der general vaccination. It is my ad- ! vice, however, 10 every citizen tha
 if hS has not been vaccinated within six years 10 have it done. IL is an 1 important health precaution in any | event.
 1 T wish the New York public |, | understand that il will be given the
 fullest and frankest information should there be any sort of outbreal
 of smallpox in this city. The pur | pose of this early statement is tC avoid disqueting rumors and to for l tify the public against groundles.

 The cause of. the trouble in York shire is somewhat similar to that which is occurring in other parts of the country, The operators there have locked eut some 10000 men who insisted on taking twenty minutes of the employers time for meals. In re- ply to the lockout the Yorkshire Min CTS Association has declared a strike for tomorrow.

POLES

If those IA Yip-Yip- p-Yaphankers at Polls fight like thev entertain, it's no wonder that Ole Bill Hohenzollern hollered for mercy. Discharged from the army these soldier fellows have evolved a vaudeville offering, "A Day in Camp" that for real en- tertainInent is just about as pleasing m offering as has been seen here in
 long while. They do everything there is to be done in vaudeville singing, dancing, musical numbers, comedy and acrobatics-and they do every one well. Each the boys wears an army service stripe and is a real fighting man as well as a first class entertainer.
 Of equal intero=t with the big SOL dier offering is me photoplay feature, Little Miss Hoover" presenting charming Marguerite Clark. Some excellent pictures of President Will sons triumpl It visits to various European citie5 are contained in the Pathe News. ,fFEEzi

MEEIB.
 There are principal meels, brek- fist, dinnir and suppir, making the day pass mutch quicker than if there was ony one or ,. Some people call you for meels, and some ring a dinn1r bell and some ring a dinnir bell and then half to call you enyhow. The reason people ring dirnir bell even' for brekfist and suppir Is because there aint eny brekfist and suppir beN. This proves that as long as pee pde fird out there's a meel reddy, that's the mane thing.
 Most people don't tawk mutch at brekfist for reasons, ferst, because they jest got up and haven't got eny- thing to tawk about yet, and End, be cause they don't feel like tawking. The principal rule at brekfist Is not to use all the rest of the creem.
 Luntch is dinnir wen there aint mutch of it. Some people call suppir dinnir, thinking it sounds more i'm portant, but the result is the same. Al good way to tell how hungry a. persin is, is toy how awtfen they say, Aint dinner reddy yet?
 BTekfist starts with dizzert, sutch as a orindge, and dinnir and suppi' ends with it, sutch as pie if you're luck. Some children eat a slice of bre- and buttir afir their dizzert jest to prove they aint full yet, even H nobody sed they was.

The dispute in London between the engineers and their employers has i'm proved somewhat. Some of the em- ployers have granted the demands of the engineering trade, but the cleo trical workers are now threateping to go on strike.
 Severe criticism of the apathy shown by Premier Lloyd George and the government toward railway em- ployes was heard at a conference of delegates of the National Union of RailWaymen last night. These dele gates represent nearly 100000 work CTS and are here for a discussion of the question of working hours. as well as other grievances. It was de- clared by union officials that unless the government faced the issues be- fore it with promptness drastic action would be taken by the organization.

Something Extra In Collisions.

A head-on collision between an
automobile and a steam traction en-
CINE, on the VanGiesen bridge, two
miles south of Fowler, late Thursday
evening, resulted disastrously for
both. The automobile was being
driven by VIM. Feldpausch, son OF
Louis Feldpausch and had reached
the bridge appoach before the driver
saw the traction engine at the other
end of the bridge. Feldpausch at
tempted to put on the brakes, but a
five-gallon oil can setting near his
foot, prevented him from doing so in
time to avert a collision. The front
wheels CT the traction engine were
broken off, the axle bent, and the
feet to one side. The auto also lost
both front wheels, has a badly dent
ed radiator and broken windshield.
With Feldpausch in the car were his
two children and Mrs. Edward Kllen
and her child. Mrs. Klicn was the
most badly hurt, suffering several
scalp wounds. DR.. Cock, of Fowler,
took six stitches in the scalp in max
inp repairs. The wrecked auto was
towed into Fowler Friday morning by
Leo Geller, of this place, who oper-
ates motor truck freight line be-
tween Westphalia and Fowler. The
traction engine belongs to Albert
Motz, who claims to have worked on
threshing outfit years ago with
