Col. Poorman returned yesterday
from Columbus, where he attended the
Democratic banquet on Friday evening.
He was greatly pleased with the speech
of Col Bryan, and unhesitatingly pro-

perceptible sentiment in favor of
booming George Fred Williams for
Vice President in 1900.
At the meeting of the Board of
Health the matter Of vaccination was
talked over and it was decided to rec
ommend a general observance of the
! custom on the part of citizens. While
it is impossible to force the matter in
the way of making vaccination compul-
sorry, 1t can be made so individually
with the school children. The truant
officer has authority to force them TO
attend school and the teacher may re-
fuse to receive them if not vaccinated.
Health Officer ID. w. Boone makes
statement upon the subject as follows:
At a meeting of the Board of Health
last evening a resolution was passed
authorizing the Health Officer to pro-
cure vaccine for gratuitous vaccination
Of the poor The Board earnestly urges
a more thorough vaccination. Small
pox has made its appearance in neigh
boring town and it is only question
of time, if we grow negligent that it
will be in our midst. So vaccinate; do
it thoroughly and the most loathsome
of diseases will be shorn of it's terror.
Time and place of vaccination will be
announced as soon as vaccine can be
procured.
The two shows which have been ex-
hibiting here had a hard time OF it in

ing ropes over it. The latter has had
hard luck of late 1t was washed out
while showing up the river during one
of the heavy storms week or so ago,
and since then a series Of minor mis-
fortunes have befallen it.
