Sir Hugh and the Epidemic.
Years ago the energy. slid courage
of Sir Hugh Graham; proprietor of
The Montreal Star, played a leading
part in saving Montreal from the
greatest disaster that ever threatened
her. This was in 18$6, when small-
pox seemed to hold the city hope•
lessly in its grasp,
The city authorities were, paralyzed
and helpless. There was no adequate
place in which to isolate the victims,
many people refused to .be vaccinat-
ed, and, in many cases, frightened.
relatives refused to let their Sick be.
taken from their homes.
Sir Hugh promptly organized a drr
monstration at the City Hall, A civic
health committee—consisting of him-
self and six associates—was formed,
and an arrny,of vaccinators ant iso-
lators was at once set to work.
But a suitable place for isolation
ona large scale was still lacking, and
Sir Hugh perceiving that the Exh;b►-
tion buildings were the only available
structures, secured a requisition. to
call out the troops, and marched at
their head to the Exhibition grounds.
The gates were looked and 'barred
against them; but Sir Hugh himself
climbed the high fence, wrenched the
fastenings from the gates, and admit-
ted the troops.
Within twenty-four hours the great
building had become an isolation
hospital, with a corps of nursing
-nuns in charge, and a procession of
smallpox patients being carried into
1t.
Fairly Warned.
The meek and lowly drug clerk had
just proposed to the fair soubrette
who presided over' the soda fountain.
"Fade away," murmured the fair
fizz stater dispenser, "No wedding
bells for you and the understand."
"You love another%" !:e queried.
"S'pose I do," she retorted, '1 hat's
it to you, little boy:"
"Oh, nothing," he said. "But. you
nre making the mistake of your lift-
in
ife:n :.urrling me clown and. allowing
the t:i to fool you with 'something just
as gtrod.' "
