Tue house occupied b. the family of
Joseph Dubreuii at 2O4 East Tenth
street, where Il child died of dlphtheria
this week, was "fumigated" Thursday
evening after the funeral
Friday morning Mr.. Joseph Dubreuil
came TO the state JOURNAL Office with
little child in his arms, although he
had been for days constantly with his
sick child which had just died of the
dread disease
Mr.. Dubreyil was innocent enough,
perhaps, but if the quarantine regula-
tions were what they should be, houses
where deaths from diphtheria occur
would not be thrown open Immediately
after the funeral; not until it was GER
tain other children in the family would
not be taken sick.
Another instance of the way our city
administrations alleged quarantine is
enforced, was exhibited at the corner of
L ,urent and Van Buren, streets, North
Topeka, where the family of w. Il.
Thomas, a Rock Island conductor, was
quarantined for diphtheria and where
the SICK child died yesterday morning.
The little -year-old Toy, Charlie
Thomas. was taken sick with dIphtheria
about ten days ago, and the house WAS
placed in quarantine. Yet. on last Mon
day, we'll known North Topeka stove
dealer, with his son, who was assisting
him, were permitted to go into the room
where this boy was sick 10 set up q stove.
The stove was no doubt needed in the
sick room, but the quarantine officers
should have put the stove Up and not
have permitted business man to go on
the prem ses and into the sick room, per-
haps to carry the -ath germs out on the
street and home to his family.
The boy died yesterday, mem bers Of
the family. however, say not of diphther-
ia. A blood vessel in the boys nose broke
few days ago aud was thought to have
healed all right until Thursday night
when in his sleep he got up and rushed
with such force against the head board
of the bed that the blood vessel was
broken open afresh, and this is said TO
have been the immediate cause of his
death.
