6roundIess Smallpox Scare.

The citizens of San Elizario are
pretty badly scared because of q death
there from suspected small pox. Late
last evening DR.. Ysndell received a
telegram from DR.. Bell of that place
saying: Death of Mexican child
from, believe, compound typhoid fever
and Mexican small pox, within twenty
rods of the depot, this afternoon. Have
guarded house and fumigated.
Please advise me at once for further
action
DR.. Yandell, vigilant as he always
is, was seen by representative of the
HERALD, who was informed that the
doctor would go down there early this
morning.
The doctor said, 81 don't know this
Doctor Bell. | called up Mr.. Cour-
chesne about the matter, and he told
me the county would pay for the team
to go down there. also for the vaccine
matter. So | will go down in the
morning and vsccinste all in the neigh
horhood, isolate the family, and keep
all who have been exposed under sur
yeillance.'
LATER.-Dr. Yandell returned to
the city about three o'clock. He in
formed the HERALD that the child did
not die OF small poX at all. He said it
was hard to tell whatreally had caused
the death. and he thinks that it was
some sort of fever. q But there was no
sign of small poX.

not long after this that Woodward. the

TO Albany and attended the court OF
appeals for several days. Seward was
arguing a case In that court and Wood

Woodward became convinced that the

one day when court was over he made
his way to the clerk Of the court and

In the course Of the building o. IN

line. Il became necessary to level and
clear a track along the bottom Of o
river for a considerable distance An
Ingenious method Of doing this was
adopted. A heavy iron bar was sus.
pended by ropes aad chains attached TO
either end and fastened TO two boats
built on the catamaran principle. the
supports coming up between the two
sections OF the catamaran. An electric
device was connected with the bar,
which was lowered until It touched the
river bed. The boats were moved slow
ly forward. Whenever the bar struck
an obstacle which threw Il on from
the horizontal the electric bell gave
warning. then by means OF sounding
poles the obstruction was located,
when Il was easily removed. This meth.
