SMALL POX SPREADING.
The Disease Obtains Hold in the Bor-
ough of Shickshinny.

Small poX has broken out in Shick.
shiny, five cases being discovered on
Monday and now tie inhabitants of that
town have virtually abandoned all bust
ness and are directing all their efforts
toward precautions to prevent the spread
of the disease. Drs. Briggs and Hughes
visited the family of Lemuel Sorber
whose children were reported to have
measles and found three of them suffer-
ing with small pox. They at once quar-
antined the house and ordered every
body to keep away.
Hardly had these precautions been
taken when they were called to the resi-
dence of Patrick Kelly, directly opposite
the Sobers, and here they found his
seventeen-yearold daughter stricken
with the disease. Later in the day it
was found that Mary Search domestic
for the Sober family, had gone home on
Saturday feeling sick and their fears
were confirmed when they visited her
and found that she also was a victim of
the disease. Each of the three houses
has been quarantined.
The head of the Sober family works
in the stone quarres and Mr.. Kelly in
the mines and they have come in contact
and been in the presence of hundreds to
whom they could have communicated
the disease. The children have been
going to school and playing with many
of the children in the borough.
The Shickshinny board of health at
once ordered that no services be held in
the churches, and all the schools are
closed, as are many of the stores. If
there are any more cases the authorities
of Wilkes-Barre will be called upon for
assistance and to lend their aid in sup
pressing the disease. Lee, where there
are seventeen cases, is not far from
Shickshinny and it is supposed the dis
ease was communicated from that town.
Small pox was reported yesterday at
Plymouth, young lady named Smell
being the victim. She had just returned
from a visit to Danville, where the
disease is prevalent.

The executive committee of the State
Music Teachers Association in session
at Harrisburg decided to send petitions
to the vice presidents of the organiza.
ton, urging the legislature to pass an act
requiring music to be taught in the pub
lie schools as a regular branch of study.
There is in every county a vice presi
dent, who is expected to circulate the
petitions for signers.

The Hazleton papers state that Angelo
Matz, who is wanted at Wilkes Barre by
Sheriff Walters to be taken to the peni-
tentiary, is seen on the streets of that
city every day and is drinking through
the saloons in an unconcerned manner.
The coal and iron police, who are SO
fond of gaining notoriety by capturing
imaginary desperadoes, are said to be
afraid to arrest him. Send the warrant
over to any of the Freeland police or
constables and see how quickly that $50
reward will be called for

JOURNALISTIC.

The Lehighton Press entered upon its
third year last week. The Press is
sort of an Independent sheet and helps
to keep things moving in Carbon county

been very successful with his paper.

improved since it donned a new dress of
