The coming of the University of Cali
fornia Glee Club seems to have filled the
air with expectation. The radiant faces
of the members have been looked at with
admiration in prominent show-windows
by papas, mammas.and daughters alike.
They are, in truth, handsome lot OF
young fellows.
Press reports of their performances are
full of enthusiasm. The Los Angeles
Times, of the 4th inst, says: lone OF the
best selections was the "Romeo and
Juliet song, the burlesque impersona-
ton of these two famous Shakespearean
characters by Messrs. Somers and Car
roll being simply Inimitable"
The surprises to which the audience is
treated in response 10 encores are de-
scribed as roaring" but they would not
be surprises to the audience tonight if
related beforehand, and can therefore
only be suggested. The concert is one
of the lecture course entertainments.

All AFFLICTED FAMILY.
The Father and Four Children Down
With Smallpox.
Startling Discovery Made Yesterday
The House Quarantined East of
Town-A Case From Trinity.

DR.. NJ. Gardner, President of the City
Board of Health, last night informed the
RECORD UNION that Dr.. White, the
County Physician, had discovered four
cases of smallpox in family residing on
the J-street road and opposite the Ameri
can River schoolhouse, near the old Clark
Pottery, a short distance east of the city.
DR.. White was interviewed by tele-
phone, and from him it was learned that
the family is named Shoup. 1t consists
Of the husband, wife and five small chill
dren. The former and four of the chill
dren have been stricken with the dread
disease, and have it quite bad.
None Of the afflicted members of the
family have ever been vaccinated, but
Mrs. Shoup has. The youngest child is
an infant, and as it has not yet been at
tackled it was vaccinated yesterday in the
hope that it may escape the extreme Sc
verify OF the disease.
About two weeks ago a young mana
relative of either Mr.. or Mrs. Shoup-who
was visiting the family, was taken i'll
while there, and then, instead Of going to
the hospital, went over to George
Swingle's, in Yolo County, where he was
soon down with the disease. 1t seems
that it had sufficiently developed while he
was at the ShOup residence 10 spread con-
taglon among the family.
Dr. White states that he has had the
house quarantined. and yesterday mott
lied the Trustees Of the school near by,
who have ordered the latter closed.
hile the pupils have not, probably,
been exposed TO the cOntagion, they will
all at once be vaccinated, and DR.. White
Will to-day receive 200 points" Of fresh
10 ofc tp, int ~ ~,
neighborhOod.
He says the patients have continent
smallpox, but that they are better oil
where they are than they could possibly
be if removed to the smallpox hospital.
They are being attended by physician,
and are supplied with all necessary COM
forts. Mrs. Shoup is performing the
duties of nurse to her husband and four
children, and if she escapes the disease
Will probably soon have another patient
i'll her babe. Her situation must be
very trying one.
DR.. Gardner thinks there should be
some way of guarding against any one
except the physician visiting and return
ing again from the house to the city. but
says the Board Of Health is not in posi-
ton to employ any one to watch the
premises. The board, he says, is vested
with plenty of authority, but it hasn't a
penny with which to act. AS the quar-
antined house is outside the city, he
thinks the Supervisors should take
prompt action to prevent the disease from
spreading.
ANOTHER CASE.
Several days ago J. Cuff was brought
down from Dunsmuir, Siskiyou County,
where he was employed as a section hand
on the railroad, for treatment at the Rail-
road Hospital here. The nature of his
ailment was not known at the time, but
on sunday the physicians became satis-
fed that he was suffering from a mild at
tack of smallpox, hence his removal to
the Smallpox Hospital.
There is not the slightest apprehension
of anyone else having contracted the dis
ease.
