BAIRD SCATTERS DISEASE
smallpox Patient from Palmer
MingIes with Omaha
People.

Three days ago Ed Baird came TO Omaha
from Palmer, Neb. Tuesday afternoon he
was not feeling well and consulted
physician. II was found that the MAJ had
a well-defned case OF smallpox. lie was re-
moved 10 the emergency hospital.
Although the man knew that smallpox ex-
isted In Palmer, he says that he had no
reason to believe that he had been exposed
10 the disease. After coming 10 Omaha
Baird was in several different hotels and
restaurants and rode in street cars
"Baird's case is another OF the careless
ness OF the towns OF Nebraska in quaran-
timing smallpox. Nearly all the disease We
have had In Omaha this winter can be
traced directly TO a negligent board OF
health In some outside town" remarked
Or. }. b. Ralph, assistant to the city health
commissioner Smallpox patients are sent
in to us as fast as we discharge people from
the hospital
