SMALLPOX IN THE STATE.
A Very Large Number of Cases in
Portsmouth.

Small pox is getting pretty well strewn
over the State again and it would be
well for the authorities everywhere to
take steps to prevent its further spread
Cases have been reported to the State
Board of Health from more than halt
dozen counties. On account of the
disease Winston has quarantined against
several towns in Guilford county where
the disease is said to exist.
1t was stated yesterday that there are
now 300 cases of small pox at Ports
mouth. and that Norfolk is preparing to
quarantine against that town. The
newshoy on yesterday afternoons Sea-
board passenger train out of Portsmouth
was taken sick, and this side of Wei
don it was discovered that he had small
pox. He promptly sent back on
the next train.
In the Western part of Chatham
county, near Siler City. the disease has
broken out. and one death has resulted.
The disease was carried there by a
negro named Marshal Glover, who has
been at work in Greensboro. Glover
has bad case of it, says the Chatham
Record. his face being SO swollen that
he cannot see. Two of his children have
had it. but are now nearly well. A
mile or more from there Mr.. Robert
Dorset has a mild case, and near the
old Phil. Aston farm colored family
has several eases.
The patient who died is a negro child.
The other one, now SO desperately sick,
is also negro.
Mr. Dorsett was in Raleigh last week
attending court here. He started home
and was taken sick at Sanford. 1t is
feared that he may have given the dis
ease to many of the people with whom
he came in contact
The commissioners of Chatham coun-
ty held meeting at .Pittsboro yesterday
to take steps to prevent a further
spread of the disease in the county.
Though there is no need for a panic
among the people Of Raleigh the out
breaks Of this loathsome epidemic in
other sections. and the heavy railway
traffic 10 and from here over the two
roads, suggest the importance of all
unvaccinated people being yaccinated
at once.
The city will vaccinate YOU free of
charge. and if everybody is vaccinated
there cannot possibly be an outbreak
here of small poS.

Farmers Bank, ON Saturday, 23rd, just

ALL ABOUT A STOVE.
Doctor Crosby and n Man Named
Dunn Come to Blows In Dear
dOrH

The second floor Of the Dearborn build
ing was the scene of an encounter yester-
day afternoon between a heavyweight and
a welterweight-and it was all about the
balance on a stove. DR.. Henry Crosby
bought a stove and paid only a portion Of
the bill and a young man named Dunn,
who represented the stove man, called for
the balance, which the doctor refused to
pay until the stove was put in proper
shape, claiming there was something the
matter with it. A few compliments were
exchanged and when Dunn intimated that
the doctor did not intend to pay, the serv-
ices of a referee were in demand, but as
no one was near to act in that capacity,
the Marquis of Queensbury rules We're
waived, as were also the seconds. bottle
holders and timekeepers. The doctor
weighs about 900, while Dunn tips the scale
at about 40.
The doctor led high for the head with
a vicious swing, which Dunn ducked and,
being in a position for a left jab. he let
the doctor have it and scored a Touchdown.
The usual ten seconds were waived and
when the doctor got to his feet, he was
given IN uppercut which f1oored him
again. By this time the doctor was groggy
and when he got to his feet made an at
tempt to rush matters, but was laid low
with a stiff jab in the head. The gong
sounded, Dunn skipped down the stairs and
Dr.. Elliott took six stitches in the doc
tors forehead.

MISS ANTHONY ON MALE AIRS.
The Veteran S~ufraEist Sees Signs OF
Masculine Aristocracy in Our
New Possessions.

MASCULINE ArtstOcracy in Our
New Possessions.
From the New York World.
THE time was when I used to know the
faces of all women in political leagues
said Susan B. Anthony, yesterday. as she
rose to reply to the welcome Of the Society
Tor Political Study, at its annual reception
In the Tuxedo, Madison avenue and Fifty
ninth street, but very few 1 see here are
familiar"
The veteran suffragist was a quaint fig
ure in her plain black gown. with a red
shawl knotted over the shoulders and gray
head uncovered. She had removed the
small black bonnet just before rising, and
was talking quite in confidential wise.
In the government of our new possess
sions." she said, AZ see indications that
men Of this nation propose to establish q
male aristocracy. In Hawaii they give the
male intelligence supremacy in government.
This will be followed in Porto Rico. Cuba
and the Philippines. Even the most ad-
yanced men, whom We have relied upon
have decided to found the government on
the same barbaric principles. You women
ought to raise your voices-a petition should
be sent to congress to protest against /.
here: 1t will be vastly harder to persuade
the barbaric men in these islands of the
sea once this is established. Endeavor 10
ward off the degradation, humiliation and
Injustice sure to follow such a state"
Great applause greeted this eXhortation.
Mrs. H. H. Knowles rushed to the plat
form with a bunch of pinks "in the name
or the club When comparative calmness
reigned once more Miss Anthony went on:
Il want every woman of wealth to be-
queath. her money to a standing fund fer
the enfranchisement of women. When sll
women are ~enfranchised what will become
of the money? you ask. Mrs. Richardson,
here at my right, president of the WASH
1ngton Memorial Association, stands for the
establishment Of a. great national univer-
sity. If this blossoms out into perfect
equality, for men and women as students
and professors, this money shall go to sup
port a professorship. But, mark you, Mrs.
richardson" shaking an emphatic finger,
IF 1t does not give women equal chances
there won't any of it go there"
