CORRESPONDENCE.
Evansville.

Mr. Fred Gilman is special officer ap-
pointed for the purpose of enforcing the
quarantine rule and keeping the small
children from roaming the streets.
Supt of Schools VIM M Ross, together
with delegation of teachers, came to
Evansville Friday morning to attend the
Teachers Institute which was to con-
tinue ten days. After confering with
two health commissioners it was decided
to postpone the institute indefinitely,
because of scarlet fever. Forty cases are
reported and the disease is spreading.
On last Monday afternoon Barnard &
Wilder's asserting room was closed, and
the employees ware treated to fruit by
Mr. Sat Brown, foreman of the asserting
room, and to ice cream by Mr. S E Bar
nard, of the firm. They all seemed to
relish with good spirit the generosity
of these two men and thought it was
good to be there.
