COMPULSORY VACCINATION.
4 Bitter Trade Against the State Board
 of Health.

4 Bitter Trade Against the State Board
 of Health.
 An eighteen page pamphlet entitled The State Board of Health and Vital Statistics." addressed to the governor and legislature of Connecticut and signed by J. Dobson. NJ. D.. F. A. S. Bethel, Conn. IS being largely circulated throughout the state.
 The substance of the pamphlet from be- ginning to end is a bitter tirade against the state board of heath and a protest agairst compulsory vaccination.
 Dr Dobson says it would be much bet ter to endure an occasional epidemic of smallpox that is limited in its powers and intensity. than to be cursed with a more certain malady permanently entrenched among rs by compulsory vaccination, and consuming the health and lives of our peo- pie at such an enormous and steadily in creasing rate. Better suffer epidemics of smallpox than continue to maintain a hot bed and nursery of tubercular consump- ton as we are now doing at the instance of a so called board of health,' which has demonstrated its incapacity and powerless- ness on every occasion it has been tested. notwithstanding it has been at work for fifteen years and received $50. .0O0 from the state. treasury. besides special appro- priations."
 The venomous communication winds up with this sweeping sentence: "Of all the hideous phases of anarchy. official an- archy is the most repugnant to a free peo- pie. and respectfully urge the appoint ment of committee similar to the 'Lexow Committee to investigate this state board of health. its tactics and pro. ceedings."
 Enclosed with the sensational effusion of J. Dobson are couple of tracts con- taining quotations against vaccination and. incidentally, considerable advertising of the treatises for the cure of certain dis eases by the same author, J. Dobson, vary ing in price from five cents to a. 50.

THE BEEKEEPER.

Bees serve as active agents in the fcrtili- zation of plants and are not destructive in the smallest degrcc.
 Hives should havo on an average 30 pounds of good honey or sugar sirup in store to begin the winter.
 Bees can be wintcrcd in n cellar, provid- cd the cellar is not too damp and care is taken to have a moderately cool, even temperature.
 Unless care is taken to put tho bees away in good condition in tho fall it will be useless to expect to find them strong and vigorous in the spring.
 One decided advantage in wintcring tho bees in good cellar is that they can be kept on about half the stores that would be needed if left unprotected on tho sum mer stands.
 As the proper food and temperature can best be secured in full colony, tho best queens can usually bo reared in strong colonies, or at least kept in such colonies until the cells arc capped.
 When feed is supplied to them in good season, the bees will arrange themselves as cold weather comes on so as to be ClOsC to their supplies and use them as they may need without leaving tho warmth of the cluster.

That is Why Coal Is Che apcr Than it
 Was l. st Fall.
 There is no danger of n coal famine this year and coal at retail in this city to- day sells for s 75 a ton. fifty cents less than it brought at this season a year ago. The combination which was comp lsed of the Lehioh Valley. the Central New Jersey and the Philadelphia X Reading railroads. was broken in March. 1893. and at that time the price of coal was higher at tide water than it ever had been before. The miners were getting more wages for min ing it and the railroad companies were getting heavier rates for handling it. As soon as the combination was broken the companies set out to get what tonnage they could at their own price. There is noz no combination. except that the different companies have entered into an agreement by which they receive per centage on their allotment of the 42, 900, . 900 tons annually mined.

EVERY grown person in Los Angeles

the actual benefit which will accrue to
our people from the thorough and intel
ligent work of the Associated Charities,
the subscription dwindles into utter in.

of this city are enabled to perform bet
ter sad more efficient work than could
possibly be done by them in their sep
arate condition. Their officers and can
vassers will have thorough knowledge
OF all the deserving poor, and imposi-
