AhuKt filliallpox.
Aa emallpoi in not over with by
.uy m. aris, wb c py from the Bul
lelin of tha Njrth Carolina Board
o Hualth, the following from tho
pen of Storetary Dr. Richard
Lewis : '
Smallpox is one of the most cjd
lag'eus and one cf ths most loath"
tomt of all dieeasta.
It ia now widely scattered over
the United States, and ia prevailing
at twenty points in our own State
today. There is danger of a wido
Hpread epidpmio e.moi'g our people.
Uuder the?e oircitnsta noes every
"rtiptiOB nppcnr;ri3 alter two or
three days of headache, backache
and f ver, or even after merely gen.
oral bad feeling, especially if mont
prominent on tho.fice and bandy,
should bo regarded as smallpox,
and the proper precautions taken
promptly and continued until the
patient is seen by a reliable physi
cian.
Be not deceived by false prophets
whoeaek popularity by prophesying
smooth thingi and calling it chick
en pox. According to one of tho
lighest authorities, with a very few
exceptions, caickenpox is confined
"XcluBivoly to childhood up to the
age of twelve, and is rare after ten.
So, if the patient ia past childhood,
it is almost surely smallpox, al
though it may be a mild attack.
Bat mild cases can cause the esvereet
form in tho unvnccina'.ed.
Fortunately, thanks to the genius
and courage of the immortal coun
try doctor, EJward Jeouor, we
h?e almost sura protection against
t:;o diat'use wlhiu tho reach of all
ia vaccination. If properly done it
id practically a? ctrt&'iu a provenla-
tive as a previous attaek of &nia!'
pixi'Bsif. Ii Germany, with its
fifty millions of people, in 1871, be-for-3
vacciaatica was mada compul-
S'.iry, tue numoT 01 aeaiiia uuui
snjiillpcx was 115,000, while in
1S'.)7, under compu'sory vaccina-
tloa, it waa only 116
When en;al!pex is prrsent in a
c imwomity, thoce who have been
y icoina'.ed btforo should be vacci
nated again, as its virtues disappear
more er less with time.
Tlura seems to be a prejudico
against vaccination on the part of
some. This prfjudice is due to ig
norance of the facto The efLiols of
vaccination are rtally Berious so stl
dom that it need not be taken into
aocount. With the improved virus
from tho cow, there is not the
slightest dauger of transmitting
such human diseases as consump
tiou, ecr fu'a or jyphilis.
Havicig this sure preventive right

community it is all-important thai
the sick prraoa should be separated

No one should viuit him, m:d only
his pliysxian and nurse should Ete
Slim. In fact, when smallpox is pt-s-vailirrg,
visits of ra -ro sympathy or
curiotity should not bo pcid to any
case of Bi';kne?s until its uatura hab
been declared by the a tendirg
physician.

Mrs. Caroline McDonald is dead
At 11:12 today (Saturday) the
eyes of Mrs. MoDonald, who ia
well known by all here, closed to
sleep the sleep of death. While
it was not known when, still her
death has been expected by her
children nnd many frionds, and
even she iieisolf realized and
wished for it to come. She was
oonsciona that her three score
years and ten had passed and that
a place beyond awaited her com
ing. Mrs. McDonald was born in
the city of Philadelphia, Pa., on
March lit, 1812, her maiden
name having been Oaroline
Dungan.
In the year 1831 she was mar
ried to Mr. Jno. McDonald in
Nornstown, Pa. They then went
to Valley Forge and from there
they moved to Columbia, S. C
In 1838 they again returned to
Norristown and two years after
wards, in 1840, they came to this
place.
Seventeen years ago her hus
band proceeded her to the grave,
and five children have also gone
before thoir mother. She wus the
mother of twelve children eight
sons and four daughters. Seven
are now living. They are Messrs.
James McDonald, Ilobt. E Me
Donald, and Edmund McDonald,
all of whom live iu Chnrlott.; Mr,
John A McDonald, who is now iu
a western State ; Mrs. D R Colo-
man, of Belleville, Canada, who
arrived here some days ago ; Miss
Mary McDonald and Cnpt. Chaa.
McDonald, both of whom have
lived with their mother here.
Tho deceased was a noble wo
man and had many devoted
friends who haye always boon
near to her and who foel that one
of thoir estoomed once has passod
away.
On the first day of last March
she reached her 87th birthday
which score i3 reached by no one
else in Cqnoord, though her
friend, Mrs. Elizabeth Gibson, of
this place, was born in April of
the same year. Having seen her
great grandmother, seven genera
tious have in their order prsjed
bef.re her view. Twenty-two
grandchildren and ten greatgr uid
children live left behind.
Woman Willi a Hllycr Touirne.
Mrs. George L Henry, of this
city, has lived a month without
trachea or windpipe aud minus
her vocal organs. All wero re
moved to save her life because of
a enncerons growth which would
soon haye choked her todeith.
The operation, performed by Dr.
F C Ard, of this city, is one of
the few of its kind known to sur
gery and one of tho fewer in
which the patient has survived.
Mrs. Henry breathes through a
silver tube and cannot utter a
sound. With the assistance of
other experts, Dr. Ard will at
tempt to construct an artificial
windpipe of silver, with metal
reeds attachod. He behoves a
contrivance can be made that will
n..t ouly tnablo her to make
sounds of cliflerr-nt tone and pitch
but to acquire a form of languare
which will enable her to com
municate hor thoughts rendily to
those ubout her every day.
Graat caro will be taken to
have the tones resemble as near
kh possible those of the human
voice. Tho case is arouaiisg great
interest among speciitliels, nnd
some of tho most skilled have
volunteered valuable assistance.

Wanted On Charge of Larceny.
Mr. 1 R Blanton, of Pacolet,
near Gaffncy, S. C, spent Thurs
day night here, having been
deputized to oome here and get a
young man named Murray
Crowell. The young man, who
is only sixteen years of age,
was found, be being employed in
the Odell mills. He stands
charged with the larceny of
twenty-fiye dollors from a person
at Spartanburg about a month
ago. He was taken to the place
and will stand trial later.
This young man, we learn, is
from a good family, and his
parents are from Stanly county,
though his mothor ia now staying
at Forest Hill. The young man
consented to go with the officer
and he showed no signs of want
ing to escape.

How Captain Bob Escaped Death
Now we tee the story in the
D.uly Reflector that Captain Bob
Eyan says that Cervera saved him,
hi i crew and the Iowa by sailing
out on the 3rd of Jnly. The
htory goes that Gen. Shatter had
requested that the navy make
snch demonstration as wonld
divert the fire of the heavy
aitillery when he would
mike tbe assanlt on Santiago
The Iowa was selected to enter the
harbor which Capt. Evans knew
full well. He drew a figure some
thing like the letter S desoriptiye
of the channel and pointed to the
plaoe where the Iowa wonld
certainly have been destroyed.
The forts he knew had the
range and it would have been im-
ossible to have survived the
fire. Ho was expecting to go in
on the morning of the 4th with
out a particle of hope of ever
coming out alive. Cervera savod
him by coming out the day bo-
fore. It will be remembered that
ho.claimed to have been thankful
to the extent of his powers of
soul comparing favorably
with Captain Thillip. This
narrative gives Credit to his pro
fessiou.

MUSIC CURE
For Restless Persons Who Derive
. Benefit From Sleep.
No
Music has long been used by
physicians for quieting the
neryes of excited patients or
raising the spirits of thosn
prone to fits of depression or
despondency. Ia lunatic
asylums, especially, musical
strains are found to be of
great .benefit to the inmates.
In all these cases the music is
played during the waking
hours of the patient. Accord
ing to a new theory, advanced
by Dr. J L Corning, persons
who suffer habitually from
mental and physical agony in
the morning, who are capable
of little exertion before mid
day, and whose constant com
plaint is that they derive
little or no good from sleep,
no matter how prolonged, may
experience a decided reyival
of vigor if subjected to musical
vibrations while they are
sleeping. Dr. Coming's expei
rience is that harmony is more
effective than mere melody in
the vibratory plan of treat
ment, and he believes In the
good effect of selections con
taining the weird and powers
ful tone combinations of
Wagner. He puts a kind of
helmet on the patient,' to
which are led the tubes and
air pieces of a phonograph.
As soon as the patient lies
down the phonograph is
started and the musio begins.
As it is desirable to have the
patient in the frame of mind
to derive the fullest benefit
from the music from the time
it is first administered, he
should be kept free from all
excitement before retiring. In
fact, where necessary, Dr.
Corning advises that an ap
priate hypnotic be adminis
tered 15 or 20 miuutes before,
or hia power of attention may
be exhausted by causing him
to look fixedly at a bright ob
ject rapidly revolyed and illu
mited by a light so screened a.-,
to leave everything else in
complete obscurity. This cau
be done by a stereoptici u !
placed behind the head of tl '- l
bed, the screen being placed ct I
the foot. Like the phono
graph, the storeopticon can bt
set to work automatically and
continuously for a giyen pe

At a recent game played betwean
lioanoke and St. Albans, tuo
former came out victorious in n
score of 7 to 3. In the account of
the game in the Roanoke Timei
we see that tho features ot tho
game were the fast holding and
the good work of the pitjhers,
but it says that Weddington had
the better of the argument.
In another game . beweeu
Koanoke end Alleghany tho
Roanoke boys came out ahead in

only struck out 2 men. Tho

"What is the bloody good of a
bloody man using the word bloody
every bloody time he opens hia
bloody mouth?''
There ia no doubt as much sense
in this aiueBtioa as in the conversa
tion of some man who peein to be
unable to speak without using
three or four oaths. Other tins ara
committed to obtain pleasure rr
profit, but swearing brings i n oom
per.Bation and cannot plc.nl any
overpowering temptation as its ex
cuse. Those who say that "there ia no
harm in swearing," deceive them
eelvts, and khow k--g abiut the
mitter than did the lutra r-.lave of
whom the following in vJ.ii.i-d. His
master was a profaae person, and
often took the name o; O ;d in vain.
Whenever he did bo, tbe negro who
waited at the table, mado a l.iw
and solemn bow. Ou being asked
why he did this, he replied that he
never heard tho great name men
tioned but it filled his,..'whily mul
with reverenco and awe. IIi master
took the hint without ofl'oiise, and
was reclaimed from sinful prac-.
tice by his pious servant.
When tho Spanish fire on San

bran to swear. Colonel Wood,
with the wisdom of a good leader,
called out, amid tha wbistla of the
Mauser bullata, "Don't pwear
light 1" The advice is good for other
places than the battlefield. Trans
lated into tho language of everyday
life, Col. Wood's order mr-ans,
"Don't worry work 1" Don't waste
your energy in swearing, but take
th8tirce to shoot straight. Don't
