It's good; try it CLOSE NEXT WEEK. Pest Camp Will Shut Down For th 8ummer. Health Officer Cunningham stated yesterday that ho expects to close the pest camp for the summer next week. Last week tho only patient was a baby, and It was hoped thut the camp could have been closed last week, but a man cunie Into tho city from another town and brought the disease with blm. He was not 111 and did not think that be Was afflicted with smallpox.

On this account he went about and spread the malady, 'four others being taken sick. There are five In the camp nbw, but they will bo dismhscd beforo the end of the we.ek.s This May has so far been an ex ccptlonally light one In the number of smallpox cases reported to the nu thorities, and 'It Is thought that the persistant and effective work of tho officers having this department In hand Is slowly but surely driving tho peat fionytheclty. The incoming population that continually brings the dluruse back cannot be ret trained, but there Is a elope watch being kept and a smallpox patient Is not la this city long before he lands la the pest camp. Last Msy there were thlrty llvs persons dismissed and so far this month there have bata only Bine, (From the Fort Scott Tribune.) Jerry Chouteau tho notorious Illi nois, Missouri and. Kansas criminal who probably has a more checkered career than any other criminal known to he detectives of those States and who was sent to the penitentiary from hero pearly five years ago, Is a free man once more, and ho spent night butore last In Fort Scott.

While Pre ho indicted a letter to J. I. Shcppard. who prosecuted him and sent blm to the Kansas penitentiary, In iyhlch he says he has given up the life of crime after having been a thief for 24 years, of which time 15 years have been spent In penitentiaries and asylums. His is a most remarkable story.

He says the change to lead a good life came In a resolve when he was sent to the penitentiary from Fort Scott He vowed that he would not speak a word until he was released and came to Fort Scott and he has kept that vow. For almost four years be was silnt. Wednesday he was released from the pen, having served four years and eight months, and he ram directly to Fort Scott, where he wrote the letter to Mr. Sheppard, thanking him for sending him up, and telling him about his life of crime. When be was sent up ba took a solemn vow never tu speak until he returned to Fort Scott.

It was herAihat be spoke for the first' time aftcliul.ijg s'enteuced. Over half of his ll was spent In crlnfe and be says that It does not pay. He owns a plantation near Birmingham, and he was rnroute thero when he came to Fort Scott. He says that when he went to stealing he had $5,000 and during the 24 years he has stolen property to the amount of $75,000, and that he bad mad up his mind to' kill Sheriff Wheeler and Jim Bales when be served his time, bat during bis confinement he bad a change of heart. Sheriff Brooks and the Tart Scott aggregation were at the penitentiary when the convict was released, but at first did not recognize him.

Tho warden explained that Chouteau had m.t spoken a word since be was there and that he would not speak until he arrived In Fort Scott that night He was a favorite in toe prison and all hated to see him go. He started to Fort Scott to break a sllanco that had lasted nearly four years. After bidding the prison official goodbye he walked to the yard where everything was green. Ho breathed the pure air of liberty once again and then made up his mind to lead an honest life in the future. He waved bis bands above his head and motioned back to the little aggregation that watched him, Indicating thut everything looked nlco gqd green.

After be bad gone. Warden Jcwett, who incidentally remarked that Chouteau was of the best convicts Sn the prison, Jnformed Sheriff Brooks that the fellow was sent up from Fort Soott and that bis name was Chouteau. It was then that be was remembered. Mr. Sheppard has no reasons to doubt the truthfulness of his letter, and If he can be of ny service to him In any woy ho wll be.

The letter was well written aud It Indicates that Chouteau Is. sincere. It Is Interesting in the eitreme and Is as follows: Fort Scott, May 14. Jako Sheppard, Knq. Dear Sir: Oerrard Chr utenti, was this day released from tho State prison.

Jake, yon did mt a great favor. Twcuty four years I had lived a criminal llfo and. after vlbratiug between prisons and asylums I Ml In Fort Scott and I vowed I never would speak until I spoke In Fort Scott Here I fell and hero I will rso. I will fulfill that vow tunlght and broak a silence I have maintained for three years and eight mom hi. I am now on my way to Birmingham, near where I own a largo plantation.

I want you to say to all the boys fur me that aflbr 24 years in crime I quit; and I quit $5,000 poorer than I went In. I once thought I kill Jim Bales and Sheriff Wheeler when I got out but I have changed my mind. 1 freely forglv hem (of tolling that story on me. It God forgives mv lie can and will tliowe.
