The Wbssky Famine in Guam.

The WbsSky Famine in Guam.
There comes a tale OF woe from dis
tant Guam. This is the remote island
in the Pacific where for some time
Captain Leary Of the navy was be-
nevolent despot. forcing lazy Guamites
to work and unmarried ones to wed.
He appealed to the department for n
brass band to aid in the civilizing OF
the Inhabitants. but was unable to get
It. It Is not a lack OF music, however.
which causes unhappiness in Guam.
1t is a scarcity of whisky. The last
barrel of "commissary" has been
stolen and drunk up by bad marines
on duty in the island.
This sad news is given In an order
issued by Commander Seaton Schroe-
der. U. 8. N. Governor OF Guam. In
It he calls the attention OF the COM
mand to the "hoodlumism and law
lessness which are rampant In it." Per-
haps this language is not too strong
when the dastardly character Of the
crime which has been committed is
taken into consideration. The Com
mander says excitedly:
There is reason for alludtng to tho
whisky from the naval hospital that was
tho last and sole supply of the medical
department for medical purposes. An Of
flcer on duty here has since then been
so reduced by climatic fever that a GER
tain amount of whisky was considered
necessary to keep him from utter pros
tration. Fortunately. n small supply was
obtained from a passing vessel. Had that
accidental supply not been Forthcoming.
would have rested upon the heads of the
scoundrels who committed the theft"

SMALLPOX.

This loathSome and dangerous dis
ease has been epidemic in the north
ern states for the past two years and
during the past winter has spread into
almost every locality. Concerning this
disease the JOURNAL has had much
to say in warning and caution-more
than any paper that comes to its ex-
change table. In doing this it has
never had the intention of being an
alarmist. 1t has simply wished to put
its readers on guard to exercise those
precautions that safety Of person and
the business interests OF the city
would suggest in wisdom. Thus far
the city has been exempt. The danger
Of its advent, however, is not past:
indeed it is more imminent than it
has been at any previous time. The
coming on of warm weather may save
US from its introduction. The disease
is most contagious in cold weather,
probably from the fact that the air is
in better condition to transport the
germs.
1t is we'll known that the disease
exists within four miles of the city
there having been about fifteen cases
developed up to the present time. AS
general thing the disease has been
of very mild type during the present
epidemic in the states and this aspect
Of the disease has been the principal
cause Of its rapid spread all over the
land. The very mild character of the
disease has often been the cause of its
not being recognized as smallpox, but
has been assumed to be chickenpox OF
some form OF itch. Yet it is known
that many have taken a malignant
form of smallpox from patients who
have developed the mild form.
The State Board of Health, DR.. y.
o. b. Wingate, secretary, 2O4 Biddle
street, Milwaukee, has published a
pamphlet on the subject OF smallpox
which DR.. Wingate is distributing
throughout the state, containing in
formation that everyone should have.
The primary object Of Jhe pamphlet
is to urge upon the people the neces-
sity Of vaccination as a preventive.
The statements following are quoted
River Falls journal. [volume] (River Falls, Pierce County, Wis.) 1872-2019, 1901-04-04

from the pamphlet: "By virtue of
the discovery Of vaccination, smallpox,
from being one of the most uncon-
trollable, as it is one of the most
loathsome Of diseases, has become
prominently a preyentable one. The
history Of the discovery of vaccination
is of intense interest TO the human
race. Announced over hundred
years ago. its value has since been at
tested by the experience of millions,
until to-day no fact seems better es-
tablished than that vaccination will
afford a protection against smallpox
as perfect as that given by an attack
of the disease itself, and with absolute
safety TO the individual" The pam
phlet gives an instance of the effect of
vaccination as preventive in several
families in Ohio during the last year:
"Ten members of one family lived to-
gether in small house; eight OF them
had smallpox at the same time-none
VI OllGLu WtIG fdCCiudbcu, iHE Ublcl
two were vaceinated and escaped
Two families were living in adjoining
houses; in one of these were seven
persons, all unYaccinated; all had the
disease. In the other house there
were six persons; one OF them only
was unvaccinated, and he was the only
one affected. There was free inter
course between these families, small
poX not being suspected"
The Board of Health calls attention
TO the fact that chickenpox is a dis
ease Of children under ten years of
age and it is so rare in adults that
many eminent physicians who have
made study OF smallpox assert that
it does not exist among grown people.
i an adult is afflicted with a disease
resembling chickenpox it should be
suspected that he has mild form of
smallpox.

EXTRA VISIT
Free Consultation, Examination
and Advice.
The German--American Doctors {
Make an Extra Visit to
River Falls.

This visit being an extra one and
aside from their months visits, they
will for this time only consult, exam
inc and advise free of charge all who
call upon them. They will be in Riv-
er Falls Monday, April Is, at the
Gladstone Hotel.
The German--American Doctors
need no further introduction to the
people throughout this community as
they have been visiting the principal
towns in the state of Wisconsin for
the last year, and their cures are num-
bered among the thousands. Even
the worst cases, no matter of how
long standing, those that have been
doctored by all other kinds of rene
dies seem to be ia their hands the
easiest cured. As TO their ability
there are thousands Of cured patient )
in the neighborhood who can testify
as to their efficiency, which is without
question. As specialists in their line
they have but few equals. Going as
they do among the common, plain
people who are subjected to all kinds
of hardships and exposures, they have
learned that they need different treat
ment than that given by the usual
city specialist. As for instance the
farmer, woodman, carpenter or black
smith, while he may have the same
sickness as the merchant, banker,
of1iceholder or lawyer he requires a
different treatment altogether.
Below are the names of some OF the
most recent cures:
j. H. Severson, prominent travel
ing man of Beloit, Wis, cured of loss
Of hearing in two treatments.
Mrs. Anna Cornwell, Plainfeld,
Wis, cured of bad case of skin trouble;
has tried many other doctors without
relief.
Gotliet Nogssek, Whitehall, Wis,
cured Of bone and blood trouble.
George Feigel, Necedah, Wis,
growth removed from the eye that
was gradually destroying the eye
sight
jessie G.. Peatz, Elkhorn, Wis,
cured Of stomach, and liver trouble,
and rheumatism.
John G. Mcguire, Ootberg, Wis,
rheumatism and kidney trouble,
cured in three months.
John II. Haldeman, Eagle, Wis,
cured Of piles Of long standing, in two
treatments.
This extra tsit Of the German
American Doctors will enable the
many new patients who have wished
to consult them an opportunity Of
doing so without cost. The German
American Doctors will not pretend
to cure you unless the case Is a cura-
BILE one.

THE CITY ELECTION.

The weather was such election day,
April ?, that no voter could excuse him.
self from staying away from the polls
on that score. The question of license
or no license made the election this
spring OF universal interest, and the

ever given in the city at a spring cleo
ton. The clerks lists showed that
404 ballots were cast in the city, Sc in
the first precinct and 36Sin the second.
Last spring the highest vote cast
in the city at the election was on the
question of electric lights-2G0 Lii
cense was not then an issue. Two
years ago, when license was voted,
there were $50 votes cast, with a ma
jority Of 80 for license. At the presi-
Dental election last fall the city polled
AIS votes.

JUDICIAL TICKET.

To-day Victoria the Great lies at
death s door. Ere these lines are
read she will doubtless have passed
the portals of that door that some day
swings.wide for us all. What can we
say that has not been better said by
others? Most honored among women
in all nations and climes, wherever
the English language is spoken the
good queen is the most loved and
reverenced as we'll. Her exalted
rank is but the stamp Of circum-
stance upon the pure gold of her
womanhood. The familiar lines of
Tennyson are suggested by her
character
Kind hearts are more than Coronets
And simple faith than Norman blood.
It's her kind, heart and her sim
pie Christian faith that have made
Victoria the ideal woman of her
century and the good old mother OF
a universal family of kind hearted
people which encircles the globe.
The death Of no person at this time
could cause such universal sorrow
to all mankind.
