MAKES QUITE A COMMOlION
Board of Healths Vaccination Order stirs
Up the Populaoe.
SOME QUESTION THE BOARDS AUTHORITY
Two state Records Are Broken by
students of Drake University ut
the Annual Field Meet ut
Dcs Moincs.

DIES MONIES, May 5.-(Special Tele-
gram.)-The announcement last evening that
the State Board of Health had adopted
a sweeping resolution directing local boards
OF health to require u thorough vaccination
throughout the state has brought forth con-
siderable comment. Some persons have
gone so far as to question the right of the
Board of Health TO act in the matter At
| torney Remley announced this morning that
there is no question in his mind but that
the board has acted within its jurisdiction
and would be upheld by the courts of the
state. Secretary Kennedy says the order
does not mean Wholesale vaccination such
as might at first be- supposed, for no per-
| son who can show that he has been thor
| oughly subjected to the vaccine test need
be revaccinated, though there are many
persons who for the sake of thorough Sc
| curity against the disease will repeat the
! operation
Harry Mark, the 4-year- r-old son OF Mr..
| Mark was burned to death tonight. 1t
| appears that the little fellow in the absence
| of his mother got too close to a gasoline
stove and in some way his clothing caught
| fire. His screams called help, but before
| assistance arrived the body was so badly
| burned that all efforts to save his life were
of no avail, and he died in great agony.
| Twentyeight cities in Iowa are repre-

afternoon a large number of delegates ar
rived and more are expected tonight. Among
those present is w. j. Clark of Cedar Rap
ids, who is the state vice president for
the National association. Among the OBJ
jects sought by organization of letter car
riers is the equalization of salaries. In
the large cities of the first-class the car
riers get $1,000 per year. while in second
class cities they receive but $3.50.

| Bonrd of HenIth's Vaccination Edict
| Stirs Up the Animals.
The dispatch from Dss Moines announcing
that the state Board of Health had issued
| an order that every man, woman and child
| in the state would have to be vaccinated
was received here yesterday with surprise
and considerable CONSERVATION. No orders
| so far have been received by the local health
| board and later advices would indicate that
| the decree of the state board is not nearly
as sweeping as the dispatch says it is.
What the board really did was to instruct
| the secretary to send out notices to all the
| local boards in the state urging them to
observe the established rules of the board
regarding vaccination preCauton
| against the spread Of smallpox. These rules
require the vaccination of all children at
| tending either private or public schools
| Further, these rules provide that all chill
dren in schools must have a record made
concerning their vaccination the time they
are enrolled The state board claims that
these rules are not being lived up to in sew
eral parts of the state and the recent out
break of smallpox in Jones county has
caused the board to believe that they should
be more rgidly enforced. The rules which
were adopted by the state board March "a
| of last year are as follows:
| Rule l. Every person entering any public
| or private school of Iowa must give salts
factory evidence of protection by vaccina-
| ton.
Rule Q The fact of vaccination and nro-
| lection must be entered with each name on
| the school record, and on transfer and pro-
motion slips.
The following order of vaccination was
| auop'eu pg lne poaru feoruary Z, 1874:

city last night. At the Broadway Methodist
church the Darlington Concert and Spe-
cialty company gave an exceptionally pleas
ing entertainment to a somewhat limited

given at Odd Fellows hall By the Trinity
church people The program was varied

a particularly sweet soprano, gave a num-
Der of selections which won merited and

MARSHALLTOWN, Ia, May 5.-(Special0
THAT better times have come and pros
perty was inaugurated with President Nc
Kinleys administration is amply demon
strated by the great improvements which
the management of the Iowa Central Rail-
way company has been enabled to make
upon the road owing to the large increase
in the earnings of the road. By liberal
ballasting that portion of the road from
Peoria, H., to Oskaloosa Ia, has been lifted
out of the mud Twelve thousand tons rf
steel rails have been paid for out of the
earnings and nearly all Of them laid on
this section of the line. Sdetracks formerly
full of bad order cars have been cleared
and the cars rebuilt or "scrapped," Old
engines have been thoroughly overhauled
and an addition of fourteen new, heavy
modern engines purchased, as well as 750
new freight cars. Seven new passenger cars
have also been purchased and all old ones
completely renovated. Six steel bridges
have been erected upon substantial masonry;

girls reported to have run away from Onaw>
with two horse traders, turned up yesterday
afternoon at the police station. They denied
having eloped with the hores traders ana
said they had walked in all the way alone.
Both girls state they left their parents be-
cause of their fathers i'll treatment. Tho
whole family month or so ago was in this
city and at that time the father was sem
fenced to Jail for ntoxcation and while hs
was serving his time the family lived IN
its covered wagon in the hay market back
of police headquarters. The girls are pennl-
less and have barely sufficient clothing to
cover their bodies. They left the police sta
ton. saying they were going to some friends
whom they expected to care for them for
the time being.
