MORE SMALL POX HERE.
Supt. Of Health Chaplin Discovers It
on Tuxedo Avenue.
Tilt VICTIM FOUR YEARS OLD.
1t Belongs to o Family OF Italians which
Came From New York About q Month
Ago The Child and It's Mother in
the Hospital.

Superintendent of Health Chaplin of this
city reported to the police last night at
the Sixth sta tion a case of smallpox,
which was discovered on Tuxedo avenue.
The victim is an Italian child of a family
recently from New York, where the dis
ease was contracted. The house is under
quarantine, police from the Sixth station
being assigned the duty of keeping every
body out of 1t and not allowing the in
mates TO leave. The case originated in a
house occupied by several families. DR..
Chaplin removed the patient to the small
pox hospital at Fields Point.
There is considerable uneasiness in
New York in regard to the numerous
cases of smallpox in existence there and
precautions are being taken to prevent its
spreading.
The case in this city was first suspected
Saturday. but the suspicion was not con-
firmed until last night. The child is 4
years old and the family came from New
York q month ago. DIR. Chaplin thinks it
Is a bad case, but says that since the erup-
tions broke out on the child's face it
has been in n room alone most of
the time. and no one has been very much
exposed to the disease, except the mother,
who has been sent 20 the hospital with
the child. A nurse is also in attendance.
DIR. Chaplin says il is hard to judge the
probability OF the spread of the disease in
the locality where il was discovered, but
will carefully watch the inmates OF the
house. and hopes there will be no more
cases.

There is a ~laughable episode in I'M

They carried him to the Opera House,
brought him on the stage, ran that end
of the show, tool him in tow again and
carried him to the Narragansett hotel.
where they hustled him into a room and
placing Franklin Ii. Ham on guard, kept
out all the frantic w~orshippers, who de-
clared that Cleveland was locked up
with Hill men, n that it was a id
shame"
The guard was so rlgidly kept that not
even the huge bouquet of the 10th Ward

portals and n general row was the result.

his way to Washington Saturday morn
ing, and from the time of his arrival up
to his departure yesterday he was over

"The result was most gratifying to Re

ton. The Democrats cannot offer any ex-

WORK FOR NOVEMBER.

PERFECTORGANIZATION ASSURED
The Democratic Reason for Losing Provi-

the Party-How the Stuffed Prophet
was Captured.

The success of the Republican party in
last Wednesdays election was due to a
complete organization of forces, and a
systematic, aggressive work in every part
Of the State.
Chairman Goodwin, OF the Republican
State Central Committee, laid out his
program with the s~trictest attention to
details, and everything moved as though
it was in q groove.
The State Central Committee were ably
assisted in their work by the Republican
League of Rhode Island. of which Henry
Il. Tiepke of Pawtucket is the president.
The league nov includes forty clubs.

work by attending. to registration and
naturalization n in a thoroughly bust
noss-like manner
The league recognized the necessity of
looking after Pawtucket, Lincoln and
Woonsocket and the result in those places
demonstrate tina effective work was DONE.
In Pawtucket and Lincoln, Republican
majorities were obtained in Woonsocket
the Democratic majority of u year ago
was cut down to q lead of less than ten
where not less than 800 had been counted
upon by the Democracy.
In tnaU Guy tncro ~ one CluO comprised
entirely of French-C Canadians and num-
boring almost 1000 members, aud the
Blackstone Valley is a fruitful field for
similar work of organization. This years
experience with the French-C Canadian
voters has been sufficient to convince the
Democratic haranguers that appeals to
prejudices are useless and that the French
vote is one of intelligence aud good judg-
ment.
East Providence also received the atten-
ton OF the League. 1t started out with q
club of about 100 members, and under
President K. G.. Dubois direction it
cleaned up the town. There is now a con-
siderably larger membership and the club
has laid out its plans, thus early, for the
fall campaign.
The league made the State campaign
one Of education, and sent out $50 600
campaign documents. These were care
fully distributed, and good results were
seen in the field Of operation.
Every part of the Stale is now under
complete organization excepting in Wash
ington county, where there is still room
for work. IL is hoped that the Republic
cans of that county will not delay in this
all-important work, and that they will mt
once make a canvass of each town. The
league and the NEWS will gladly aid in
this work.

WHERE THEY LOST.
The Cause OF Dissipation Of the Great
Democratic Majority.

The Cause OF h Dissipation Of the Great
Democratic Majority.
The Democrats have been kept quite
busy in settling election bets and explain
ing where and why they failed to win.
The chief cause was a lot of votes; the
next reason was that the public didn't
want Wardwell and his free trade crowd.
Geo. Brennan gives the best explana-
ton for the loss Of Providence. There
was a senseless repulse of the Hebrew
Americans. Col. Hahn had an indisputa-
bic right to n place on the city ticket. He
had given of his time and money and then
was refused recognition. This lost 600
Hebrew votes to the party. Then there
were 400 naturalized voters whose second
papers were not looked after. They made
a total of 1000 votes lost TO the party and
it was the votes OF these people that had
been confidently counted upon.
Gen. Brennan is not inclined to take a
very roseate hued view of the success of
the Democr attic party next November.

Boston, April 11.-Eight boys belonging
to the State farm school on Thompson's
island were drowned in Boston har-
Dor last night. This morning two
of the bodies were recovered near
Spectacle island. Owing to the re-
ticence of the superintendent of the
school but little information could be Sc
cured this morning.
The boys were capsized In q sailboat and
an instructor and eight Of the lads per-
ished. The victims were A. r.. Norberg,

been to the city to attend church and the
10 boys. constituting a regular crew of the
Point to convey the instructor to the
island.
At a point between Spectacle and
Thonpson's islands the boat was struck
by a squall and capsized. The eleven
occupants were thrown into the ice-cold
water, but all secured positions where
they could cling to the overturned craft.
And then Negan a long wait for rescue
which to most of them was never to come.
at one time a tug was seen in the distance
and they shouted with all their remaining
strength, but could not attract attention.
When the time for the boat to return to
the island had passed, Superintendent
Bradley went to the beach to scan the
waters, but he saw nothing. The survivors
say they saw him patrolling the beach,
and felt sure that rescue would come. but
il did not.
Finally the chill of the water and the
exertion necessary to keep their heads
above the surface overcame the unfortu-
mates and one by one they were compelled
To release their hold. The instructor was
the first TO 40. Each offered a prayer or
n word Of farewell to the others as he gave
up.
Some of them endure the unequal con-
test for nearly four hours, and il was IL
o'clock when the boat with the two sur
~vivors, still clinging to it, drifted ashore.
They were Immediately cared for. and are
rapidly recovering from the effects of their

occupied by James Ffzz and a family
