Merldenss Continued ABRASIVE New
Cases Developed-A Mill Hands wan
derings-More Cases Expected-The
Burial or Higgins.
MERIDEN, Feb. 18.-This morning DR..
Graeber reports two more cases of smallpox.
Both are in the Kibner family, who reside at
the corner of North and Hickory streets.
Clara Kibner, z years old, was stricken yes
terdsy and two smaller children are now
down. The three patients have not been
taken to the pest house owing to the isolated
location of their home, but everyone there
has been rigidly guaranteed.
This morning DR.. Davis gave information
to Selectman Bevins that there was case In
the Fleming family, living east of Meriden
The case is out of the city limits, but will be
looked up this afternoon. All the patients
are reported to-day as doing as well as could
be expected. There are eight of them in all.
The remains of Patrick Higgins, who died
yesterday noon, were buried in the Catholic
cemetery at midnight by DR.. Graeoer, as.
sisted by the nurse and Health Officer Couch.
Afterward they returned to the apartments
which had been occupied by Higgins and
burned everything in use there.
Michael Foley, who was yesterday reported
very i'll in Great Darlington, Mass, of small
pox, just before he left MeIiden went to the
wooden mill where he was employed and
babe all the employees goodbye. He was
all scabs then and he went around
through the mill asking his fellow-workmen
IL they thought he had smallpox. He then
returned to his boarding house, which il
kept by Martin Cunningham. Cunningham
Yesterday was out with Q card In the news
papers stating that the disposition to fasten
the origin Of the smallpox upon his house
was mistake, and that there had been no
case of smallpox in his family. This he gave
out before he learned Of Foley's illness.
When Foley left for Great Darlington cannot
be ascertained. He travelled by, train; many
must have been subjected to contagion. His
roaming around the wooden mill has created
. disturbance among the hands. All Of
them have been vaccinated and still continue
ct work.

PERILS FOR PEDESTRIANS.

Boys stretch n Wire Accross the street
and watch the Fun.
A group of boys were having all the fun
they wanted for short time last evening in
the vicinity of Newman's corset shop on Oak
street. A great deal of fun will also come to
them to-day as result of their cspers.
Lewis Seort, John Mulvey, Daniel Casey,
Antonius Delair and few others stretched q
wire across the sidewalk about foot from
the ground and hid themselves near BY to
watch the fun. Pedestrians came along in
transporting security and found themselves
suddenly precipitated with unpleasant force
to the pavement. Several unfortunates
furnished much amusement to the urchins in
this manner.
Finally an aged woman became the martyr
to the treacherous wire. She was quite
severely hurt and complaint was made to
Officer Laughlin. He swooped down upon
the boys and captured the four whose names
are given above. Another will be taken into
custody this morning.
