CASE OF SMALLPOX DISCOVERED.
Negro With a Well Developed Case
Found on North Fourth S~treet-Quick
Quarantine Record.

A negro by thu name of Willis Dingle
was discovered with a we'll developed
case of smallpox late yesterday after
noon at his home in the rear of the
residence OF Mr.. J.. F. Maunder, ga
North Fourth street.
DR.. w. D.. Mcmillan, as superintend-
ent of health, had the negro removed
Immediately to the smallpox hospital,
together with his wife and Eliza
Moore, Della Taylor, Lucy Wilson and
Ed. and Henry Moore all colored who
occupied the same house. Seventeen
other persons were vaccinated and
strict guarantees established.
Dr. Mcmillan discovered the case at
$40 o'clock and by Z O'Clock the pa
tents and associates had been re-
moved to the hospital, guarantees es-
tablished, and vaccination all done, an
excellent record, in keeping with the
quick work and effective management
which has characterized the superin-
tendent of health's management of
previous outbreaks of smallpox in this
city and county.
The negro who was found with the
smallpox came to Wilmington some
time g from South Carolina and was
at work as a porter In one Of the city
stores until probably a week ago, when
he went to Weldon, returning here last
Wednesday sick. From his statement
a to his symptoms smallpox is clearly
defined and in addition to this the case
is now well developed.

Superintendent Jones, of the city
rock quarry, reports very gratifying
developments and progress in his inn
portant department of the street i'm
provement work, being pushed by the
streets and wharves committee. He
said last night that the supply and
quality of the rock is far ahead of the
most sanguine expectations of the pro-
motors of h plan to quarry rock at
the city gates" The section of the
quarry now being operated has reach
ed a depth of about eighteen feet be-
low the surface, and he on yesterday
drilled through a strata of rock as hard
as granite, which is z feet 6 inches in
thickness.
Mr.. Jones says that he. is more than
ever convinced hat there is easily &C
cessible on the and already leased by
the city a supply of rock which at the
present rate of quarrying could not be
exhausted in five years.
The rock is now being gotten out at
the rate of about 100 tons a day, and
the crushing and distribution on the
streets of the city is at about the same
rate. :
On tomorrow night and every night
thereafter the crusher will be operated
until II o'clock, the daily output be-
ing thereby greatly increased.
In speaking of the quantity of the
rock, Mr.. Jones said last night that
fully IS per cent. of the rock being
quarried is as hard as and very much
resembles granite. He now has an av-
erage of about $50 laborers at work
daily in the quarry. The big steam
pump being used to keep the quarry
clear of water continues to be thor
oughly adequate, keeping the pits all
thoroughly drained. The expense
of quarrying and crushing the rock is,
it is estimated, very much cheaper than
it would have cost the city to get the
rock from any other available source.
With the rapid rate with which the
rock is being put or the streets now,
it will not be long before the macadam
work being pushed by the streets and
wharves committee will begin to show
up on an extensive scale. They are to
be congratulated upon the progress
| being made.

PAT FLYNN SERIOUSLY SHOT.
Had a Difficulty With Isaiah West
Who Says He Shot Him in Self-De-
fence-West Surrendered Himself to
the Police.

About Z o'clock last night, on Red
6nd, ]. P. Flynn was shot and very
seriously wounded by Health Officer
Isaiah West. There were no eye wit
nesses to the beginning of the diff
Guilty, and Mr.. West says he was fore
ed to do the shooting in self defence.
Immediately after the shooting
Flynn was carried to the city hospital
and Mr.. West gave himself up to IN
officer and went to the city hall, where
he surrendered his policeman's badge
which he wears as a health officer.
DR.. Lane telephoned from the hos
pital that Flynn's injuries were quite
serious, and under these conditions it
was impossible to release Mr.. West on
bail, so he was committed to the city
prison to await an investigation in
court today.
TIC a member of The Messenger staff
Mr.. West said last night that he has
no idea why Flynn made an assault
upon him. He said that at the time of
the difficulty he had just been on the
premises Of Mr.. Walter Rutland, to
make an official inspection, and had
started down Red Cross street when
he saw Pat Flynn jump off the street
car and come towards him as though
TO speak to him; that he CWest)
stopped and waited for Flynn to come
up. and when he did, Flynn, without
a word, lifted a large walking stick
n began beating him over the head.
Thereupon he CWest) drew his revolt
yer and fired three times. and even
then Flynn continued to beat him I'M
TIL assistance came. Mr.. Vests head
n arms are badly bruised by F1ynn's
stick.
The examination Of F1ynn's wounds
at the CITY hospital showed that all
three shots fired by West took effect.
the most serious wound being in the
chest, near the heart. The ball is
thought to have penetrated the lung
and has not been found. OF the OTHER
two balls, took effect in the left
thigh, making only a flesh wound, and
the other lin the stomach. This ball
was cut out from his back.
The only serious results are expected
from the wound which penetrated the
lung, as there is thought to be internal
bleeding.
Mr.. West is a very inoffensive man
and seems to very greatly lament the
affair.
