occupied their time proftably in examining
the fine farm and farming facilities Of the
genial host.
The liberality shown by Mr.. George
Hunter in his invitation to the guests to help
themselves to apples, pears, grapes, ETC.,
which he raises in great abundance, viii not
be forgotten. The gathering dispersed late

SMALL Pox.
Four Thousand Gases Said to be in
Montreal.
Compulsory Vaccination Causes a
Serious Riot in that City.

MONTREAL. Sept, 28.-A gentleman on the citi-
zens committee today claimed that there were at
least 1000 cases of small pox in this city The
opening of the Theatre Royal has been indefinite-
ly postponed on account of the epidemic. The
health officials are encounterng most determin-
ed opposition in their work of placardng espec-
tally in the east end of the city and several ar
rests have been made.
In consequence of the Inauguration of compul-
sorry vaccination today about seven this evening
howllng mob surrounded the east end branch
health office and completely wrecked the build
ing; Inc police were powereSs and the mob
gathering strength from this marched upon the
central once In City Hall. By this lime, however
q general alarm had been sounded and a strong
force OF eonstables were gathered inside but hav-
ing no one TO command them the mob drove them
out OF their way like sheep. After the mob had
smashed the central office they turned their atten-
ton to the central police station and soon had all
the windows in that building broken and revolver
shots were freely fired at the police. To scare
them the police fired over their heads only to be
received with jeers and laughter Things now
looked SO BAD that the police were armed with
rlfes with fixed bayonets but happily it was not
deemed necessary to use them.
Inc constables now charged the mob clubbing
rlght ana lett and succeeded in dispensing them,
put not before they had wrecked the greater por-
tOn OF the court house. the windows of which are
opposite City Hall. The mob then broke up into
dlherent bodies and proceeded to wreck the win
dowS OF the Herald Office and of the offices OF the
medical health officer chairman of the finance
committee and public vaccination. A number of
arrests were made and the city is in a state of
great excitement. 1t Is thought the riots will be
continued tomorrow night The police will patrol
around the public buildings all night while the
military viii tomorrow be held in readiness to
quickly put stop to repetition of such scenes.

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH.
Their Quarterly Meeting in Augusta
Yesterday
Especial to the PRESS.

Especial to the PREss.1
AUGUSTA, Sept. 28.-The quarterly meeting of
the State Board of Health was held at the Capitol
this forenoon. There were present tile president
DR.. Gerrish of Portland, the secretary. DR.. Young
of Augusta. Hon. Lewis Barker of Bangor, DIR. 0.
A Horr of Lewiston, and DR.. Webster of Augusta.
A resolution was adopted, approving of the ac-
tion of the medical faculty of Bowdoin College in
establishing lectureshp of public hygiene.
The secretary was instructed to undertake the
collection and tabulaton of the vital statistics of
Maine. Hitherto the statute concerning these
important data has been almost utterly ignored;
but the law now places the duty of superintend-
ing vital statistics in the hands of the executive
officer of this board, and it is proposed to make
beginning of the work at once.
The secretary reported the work which had
been accomplished during the quarter The prin-
cipal circulars issued have already been present
ed in your columns, and it need only be said aCdi-
tionally that The most of them have been sent to
every physician, lawyer and clergyman in the
State. A request for information concerning the
prevalence and causation of some of the common
diseases was sent out to the medical practitioners,
and more than a hundred have already replied,
furnishing valuable data which will be incorporat-
ed into the annual report. 1t is earnestly hoped
that the physicians who have not already respond
ed will do so as speedily and fully as possible in
asmuch as the more numerous their answers the
more valuable will be the results of the collection
If each doctor would devote few hours to the re-
cording of such facts as are asked for by the
Board of Health, decided impetus would be Civ
en- to sanitary progress in the State.
A large number of complaints of nusances has
been received at the office. 1t has been necessary
to refer all such grievances to the local health Off
GERS. Every town has a health board or health
committee, and it is the duty of every such to at.
cality.
The principal topic ofdiseussion was the threat
ened epidemic of small pox The secretary has
visited various towns in the endeayor to arouse
the authorities to the necessity of enforcing pre-
yentve measures. The chief danger is in the
manufacturing places, where many French Cana
dian operatives are employed, and in numbering
of these places, the results would be disastrous
not only to life, but also to business as is well il
lustrated in Montreal today. If the manufacture
ers and lumbermen are intelgently alive to their
pecuniary interests they will insist upon the vac
cination Of every employe. In some other States
the railroads having all their men protected in
this way, a precaution which selfinterest as well
as regard for public welfare, should dictate. A
circular of information is to be issued immediate
ly to those who employ large numbers of men.The
United States government has been appealed to
for aid in keeping the dreaded disease from OBJ
tanning foothold in Maine.
