DIR. Young of the State Board of Health
left for Deering yesterday forenoon to see
about n case of smallpox which was re-
ported from tina, town. In conversation with
Journal reporter the doctor stated that this
disease had really existed at Cumberland
Mills since Jan 2lst, but was thought TO De
chicken pox The fact that nearly all OF
those taken with the disease thus far had
been yaccinated has given ii the form
of varioloid and the doctor thinks
that probably all of the parties who
have been taken with the disease thus far
will recover from it. The doctor pronounced
the report, that he had stated that no spread
OF the disease was feared, to be incorrect
The man of the house where the first four
cases occurred was at work in Portland, and
until the true nature of the disease was known
went back and forth to his work daily-so thai
1t is not to be wondered at if some spread OF
the disease should follow. Every precautior
Will be taken, however, to prevent this, both
quarantining the sick ones -and by vaccinat
ing all persons known or thought to have
been exposed. If the good results attained
oy the health authorities at Gardiner can be
repeated in these cases the State will certain
y nave good cause to be thankful.

At the meeting of the Loan and Building
Association Wednesday evening, the funds on
hand (Ss00) were loaned on absolutely safe
security at eight and seven-tenths per cent.
Tue bidding was spirited, as parties were
present desiring some $1,000. As there are
now 40 shares the association has $40 TO
loan each month. and the demand for money
calls for three or four times that amount.
The dividend last quarter was six per cent
and for the ensuing quarter will certainly be
as much. An absolutely safe six per cent
investment like this ought to run up the num-
Der of shares to 1000. We predict great
results from this association. Ii has all the
safeguards of savings hanks, and yet in no
way iuterferes with them. BY building ne"
homes il aids in the growth of the city, and
gives all, with large or small incomes, safe
opportunity to make systematic savings and

o. A. Tuell receives subscriptions at any

month. viii our citizens make it 2ooo

The parties who have been insulting a

probably refrain from this public outrage

evidently determined not to relinquish
their prosecution, however. but are
sending through the mail to Mr.. Percival
postal cards with pen and ink sketches of the
aforesaid rodent and bearing the inscription
