AbOut Vaccination.

GAS there are lunatics in the United
States, says the New York Times, "as
in England, opposed to vaccination,
who indulge in frantic speeches and
inveigh against the horrible act 'of
snatching the infant out of his mothers
arms to hand it over to the vaccinator
to be murdered by inches, perhaps the
recent report made by DR.. Buchanan,
the medical officer of the London local
Government Board, may be of some in
terest. AS to those opposed, however, to
vaccination, it really seems quite doubt
full whether, from want Of common
sense or abundance Of prejudice, they
can ever be made to appreciate the alb.
solute facts of the question. Taking
the population of London by the mil
lions, the statistics show that if l,OOO,-
900 people are vaccinated only 80 of
them died from smallpox during the
year. III ,00O, 900 are notvaccinated, $3.50
of them die of this loathsome disease.
If anything like selection were made as
to age, and 1,0o0,0QO London lads and
girls were taken under 20 years old and
vaccinated, I'll might die Of smallpox,
and of the unvaccinated 4, $40. If very
young children are taken, the 1000, 900
being under 5, the vaccinated Al would
die, and Of the unvaccinated babies not
less than $3.50. TO put the same facts
in different shape, there are37 chances
that you will die of smallpox in this
million if you are not vaccinated and
one chance if you are vaccinated. If
security fro smallpox is greatest at a
young age from vaccination, and the
chances OF catchtug the disease increase
with age, security from danger is ar
rived at by revaccnation. 1t must be
then, quite apparent that although IL
father or mother may decline to be vac
cinated for certain stupid reasons, it
approaches almost TO wickedness when
they prevent their children from being
vaccinated. w hen a man refuses to
have his child vaccinated, the infant
suffers for the parents folly, and the
law rightly holds that there are many
dangers which man may incur for
himself, and yet may not compel others
to incur"

A &AtSie Learning

Is a dangerous thing, and becomes even
more so in The face Of emergency. A
small bey, with vague notions of know-
ledge, hut n settled conviction that he
was personally to blame for most lhings
that happened, there being not even IA
cat in his home to share responsibilities
with him, was sent most unWillingly to
school. In due course it came to, his
turn to answer questions. The master,
a sterri-looking man, with q voice rel-
dered harsh and grating y perpetual
fault-fnding and sanldNIg, looked
straight at him and thundere,l forth:
"Now sir, new boy, sir, who made ,he
world?" No answer coming from the
startled boy, the question was repeated
with still more emphasis. Still no re-
pty from the newcomer, who trembled
visibly on his seat. The master, losing
all patience, brought his ruler down
with laundering violence and shouted
once more: "Will you tell me, sir, who
made the world?" 1t was too much,
with deadly conviction of his own enor-
mites the new boy sobbed out: please,
sir, did, butt II never do it again. -

Near Hollywood, Arkansas, OF
Thursday, two Texans stopped AT

immigration into Liberia.

Mr.. I. G. Fuller, the Mayor of Mon
rovia, in reply to question as to whether
there is much immigration into Liberia
said: "There is very little. From 70
to 100 immigrants arrive from this coun-
try yearly, and that is about all we
have. If Americans would establish
cotton mills in Liberia 1 am sure they
would be a success. Foreigners have all
the rights of citizens in the country,
and though no one bat a black man can
become citizen at present, this would
not be any detriment to the carrying on
Of business there by white men. The
new Minister to the Republic, Dr.. Grant,
is well known by reputation in Liberia,
and regarded as the friend of that coun-
try and his race. We have strong
feeling of regard for this country, and
wish it to reap the advantages to be de-
rived from trade with us. Englishmen,
Germans and FrenchMen visit the coun-
try from time to time, but are not look
ed upon with favor there.

Case Should the President Re.

cover.
In June, 1910, only few months af-
ter Queen Victoria's marriage, a man
named Edward Oxford fired at her ma
jasty when she was out driving with
Prince Albert.
The royal couple were in a small
phaeton, going to pay their dutiful visit
to the Duchess of Kent in all the sim
plicity and confidence of nature, Prince
Albert driving his wife through the
peacefulness of the summer evening.
We had hardly proceeded a hundred
yards from the palace when noticed y
Prince Albert writes, con the foot-path
on my side, little, mean looking man,
holding something toward us, and be-
fore could distinguish what it was a
shot was fired which almost stunned us
both, it was so loud and fired barely six
PAGES from us. Victoria had Just turn
ed to the left to look at horse and could
not understand why her ears were ring
ing, as, from it's being so very near, she
could hardly y distinguish that it proceed
ed from shot having been fired. The
horses started and the carriage stopped.
| seized Victoria by the hands and
asked if the fright had not shaken
her; but she laughed at the
thing. l then looked again at the man
who was still standing in the same
place, his arms crossed and pistol in
each hand. His attitude was so the
atrical and affected it quite amused me.
Suddenly he again pointed his pistol
and fired second time. This time
Victoria also saw the shot and stopped
quickly. drawn down by me. The ball
must have passed ust above her head. y
The wretched culprit was a dissipated
lad of seventeen, apparently moved by
nothing more serious than depraved
vanity and desire to be notorious.
The convenient plea Of insanity was
brought in TO save England from the
bother of executing such q being for
high treason Only the other day, dur
ing the sitting of the Commissions on
Luntic Asylulns, it was mentioned that
this pititul criminal, was still vegeta-
ting among the madmen-more respec-
table in their misery than he-but not
insane: "as sane as any of us" the doc
tor said whospoke ofhim. Forty years
of imprisonment arc. perhaps, on the

hard punishment as one swift hang
