patch from Jacksboro, sent by j. s.
Price, which contained the welcome
news that William Dill, one of the ac-

Cured In this city on the 2Sth day of

small POx.

In the matter of small pox, cold weather
alwas increases the disease The fatal cases
now reach one hundred week in the city
of New York, and the newly established
vaccine bureau is powcrless to make head
way against it. Last October the board of
health of the city determined to open a
new bureau, to be called the Vaccine,
which should take specit charge of small
pox, and attempt to vaccinatc the people !;
from thirty to forty doctors have since
been employed, running all over the city,
matchmaking every one who would permit
the operation 10 be performed. Some ply
sicians have expressed the opinion that this
bureau has stirred up more small pox than
it has stamped out. AT all ever Is, the fact
remains that the disease has steadily in
creased instead of diminishing The fail
ure of the new bureau is doubtless owing to
the fact that it is attempting to ac-
compliSh the impossible. One cen
trail body of dozen, or
even hundred men, eau never control a
disease in a great city like New York. The
wiser plan would be to divide the town into
small districts, placing them under the
charge of locally resident and competent
physicians. The people wish for physi-
clan with whom they are acquainted, OF
ground will have to be gone over many
times, and constantly, before all the people
can be reached. This can best be done by
doctors who live on the spot. The board
OF health should only exercise a general SUI
/ ppryisinp control and have n small porny
