Be Vaccinated.

Smallpox is prevailing at several
points in our State and in adioin.
ing States. is becoming so serious
in Memphis that the city hos
pital has been ordered closed, and
new cases are located in different
parts OF that city every day, The
authorities at Little Rock, Ark,
and some of the small towns near
it are reporting new cases daily.
AS persons are constantly coming
into our midst from the infected
points, it is strongly probable that
we will have a case of this, one OF
the most loathsome and fatal cpl.
demic diseases, before many weeks
or may be days, are gone.
With the above explanation and
warning, write to urge every one
in Washington county, who has
not recently been vaccinated, the
necessity of immediate vaccination
OF themselves and all others for
whom they are responsible.
On no subject IS medical tegti-
mony more unanimous than on the
very large immunity from attacks
of smallpox which successful vac
will confer. Regard must |
be had as to quality and amount OF
vaccination in estimating its pro-
tective value against smallpox,
to statistics compiled
by DIS. Seaton & Buchanan, of
London. Their subioined table
will show at glance better than
any detailed statement the value
Of vaccination and the relative
value Of different qualities and
amount of vaccination Taking
1000 children in London Of each
of each class the facts
Of the above become more appar,

young son Of Thomas Pelky OF Klondike
fame, is now firm believer in the theory
that a cat has nine lives, and Il would

the contrary. The boy tried to kill one
OF the feline tribe yesterday while the
animal was suffering from fit. and in
steao or accomplishing what seemed a
simple enough deed sent a bullet through
his own foot and inflicted bad wound.
Inc antics OF the poor cat and it's evil

and he procured rifle with which to end
Its agony; He leveled the rife at the cat

TWO BOYS BATTLE
WITH A WILDCAT
William Eden and Ned Watson Have
an Exciting Adventure in
Marin County.

SAN RAFAEL, Dec. while gathering
red berries and evergreens for decorating
a hall, at which an entertainment is 10 be
held. two young residents Of this city had
an encounter on Bolinas Ridge with a
large wildcat yesterday, which they Will
remember for some time. The boys who
had the adventure were William ]. Eden,
son Of Coroner Eden. and Ned Watson.
son OF James Watson, the well-known
politician.
The two proceeded to Bolinas Ridge In
buggy, taking a shotgun and an ak.
Eden climbed a tree and started to top OFF
branch, when a large wildcat sprang
upon him so suddenly that he lost his
hold and fell about fifteen feet to the
ground. He was knocked senseless. but
the fierce cat still chung 10 him: Watson,
who had the shotgun, banged away at
the cat as soon as he got a favorable op-
portunity, but owing 10 his excitement his
aim was bad and he only slightly wound
ed the animal
1t sprang at Watson and inflicted a deep
scratch on his left arm before he managed
TO shake IL loose. With dubbed gun the
boy attacked the cat, but al the first blow
II jumped to its feet and disappeared. In
their excitement the boys returned TO
town without their AK.
Painters and wildcats are so numerous
In Marin County Of late that entering the
forests without a weapon IS deemed a
hazardous undertaking.
