THE STRAWBERRY MARKET.

The greater portion of the Ohio ber-

the business now for a quarter of a
century, but never before have |
known such demand for Strawberries.
The season is just at its height. One
regretful feature this year is the fact
that there will be fewer home
grown berries than ever before, ow-
ing to the fact that quite a number OF
the Colerain growers have gone out of
the business"

SMALLPOX AT LAS CRUCES
A Card From the County Health Of
fiCer,

LAS CRUCES, NEW MEXICO. April %.
EDITOR HERALD:-My attention has
been called to an item in your widely
read publication concerning smallpox
here.
In regard to the number of cases l
am in position to state positively that
there are but twenty abodes in which
smallpox exists, nearly all OF which are
cases modified by vaccination.
No prominent citizens of this town
have the disease, as stated. Seventy
five per cent of tho infected
are under ten years of age.
The disease is well under control at
present and in no sense can it be consi-
dereds as epidemic.
The citizens here are quite satisfied
with the efforts made to limit the
disease, considering our lack of incor-
poration and financial circumstances
the only opposition coming
from few disyruntled
individuals, who have GO interest in
the town and whose time is principally
occupied in representing their own
views in order to better ''grind their
axe," the raison d'etre is not far to
seek. Yours, etc,

Medical Health Officer for Dona Ana

zephyrs were too much
for him and he was
soon fast asleep. He was awakened by
Officers Rogers and asked to explain.

NEW YORK, April ga general
convention of Theosophists called to
discuss the advisability of forming q
new and independent Theosophicsl So
ciety, opened today in Lyric hall, in
Sixth avenue. with a number of follow
ers of the cult of more or less promin
ence in attendance.
The leaders of the movement areOr
have been members of the Universal
Brotherhood, formerly the Theosophi-
cal Society of America. Different
causes are assigned for the secession,
but to all appearances it is due to the
same spirit of internal dissension
which bas caused the parent body to be
come more or less demoralized and split
up in its membership ever since the
death of the late President Judge.
The leader of the present movement
is John M. Pryse, who has hitherto
been quite prominent in the affairs of
the Universal Brotherhood.
