LITTLE GIRLS LIFE
CRUSHED OUT BY CAR.
rlary l.. Donovan, Four Years of Age,
Run Over by an Electric While She
Was Trying to Cross Randall St.

Mary L. Donovan. years old, who lived
with her widowed mother at 90 Randall
street. was struck by an electric car and
instantly killed not far from her home
late yesterday afternoon. IL seems that
Mary was sent by her mother on an err
rand TO Gallagher's grocery store which
is few numbers down the side of the
street opposite to that on which the Dono-
van family lives.
She was accompanied by a small boy OF
about her own age who escaped all in
jury.
IL was while crossing Randall street
that the little girl met her fate. This
thoroughfare Is always full OF little chill
dren who play about the doorsteps and
curbstones at this time in the afternoon
Despite this. however, the cars run down
the grade at high rate OF speed This
can be done with safety to the inmates of
the cars for the latter only run IN the
direction OF Randall square. Among the
cars running over this route are the big
Pawtuckets on their way TO Market

SMALLPOX.
Another Case Discovered al
Woonsockat Last Night.

Despite the precautions taken by the
Woonsocket health department.. smallpox
seems to be spreading. The fifth case was
discovered last night by DIR. E. ID Clark.
The victim is Cloephas Archsrd. 20
years old. and lives in an s-story block
at 1859 Cumberland street lie has not
been at work for about two days
IL appears that Archard worked I'm the
same room i'm the mill as Riendo, from
whom he probably contracted the disease.
IL Is believed that the smallpox was car
ried to Archard by bundles OF wool, as he
was the next man TO handle them after
Riendo.
Six families inhabt the tenement house
where the smallpox has broken out. OF
these only two men have been vaccInated.
Archard has a wife and an infant child
while with him reside his brother and the
latter's wife. The building has been quar-
antined.
The health authorities are now busy
looking for suitable site for a smallpox
hospital The committee examined the
Providence street park and the Cass park
yesterday, but rendered no decision.

SICK HORSES.
There Are Many in Oily Suffer-
Ing From Disease.

Added to the suffering and discomfort
which the poor horses have been obliged
to endue of late now comes another
trouble which threatens even greater dis
comfort
1t is called in the language of the vet
erinary surgeon Epizootic and is declared
to have started in Pennsylvania fully
two months ago.
About a month ago II reached New
York where 1900 horses were affected.
Newport has also had some experience
with the disease. Last Saturday, how
ever, was the first time it has been heard
of in this city since 1873.
Since Saturday 300 cases have been re-
ported by the Hope Live Stock Mutual
Benefit Association and IL is understood
that between 600 and 700 other cases exist
here, which have not been reported
The symptoms are not generally un-
dorstood and for the benefit OF all those
who own horses it may be said that
the disease, In its early stages, suggests
a pulmonary affection.
A slight cough is at first noticed fol-
lowed by discharge at the nose.
The horse also loses his appetite for
food and finally hemorrhages from the
lungs appear.
The wise course 10 pursue Is that when
the horse is seen 10 be ailing In any way
let the horse doctor be called at once and,
meanwhile the animal should be kept
as quiet as possible.
#. w. Waterman, the well known team
ster OF this city, stated yesterday that
OF his a horses . were sick with the ef-
sease.
@. w. Hubbard, secretary OF the Hope
Live Stock Mutual Benefit Association.
stated also that an epidemic of Epizoouc
was certainly raging In this city, but
just what its extent would be he could
not prophecy.

STRONG PROTEST
Yacht Owners Object TO Po|Iu-
tlon Of River by Gas Company

An indignant yacht owner OF this city
made a vigorous complaint to Harbor
Master Bucklin. yesterday morning. re-
sarding the pollution of Providence har-
Dor by the refuse OF coal tar, which Il is
alleged is traceable to the Providence
Gas company.
Yacht owners are especially bitter in
their denunciations against what they al
lege Is a nuisance.
IL seems that the refuse, which is dis
charged into the water rises TO the sur
face and forms an oily substance. which
is decidedly obnoxious to the sense of
smell
This substance clings to the white
sides of yacht with such tenacity that
only vigorous scraping. which also re-
moves the paint will have any effect In
removing the disfgurements.
A certain yacht owner said Yesterday
that, last season. soon after his boat was
painted. he noticed that IL gradually be-
came dishgured and looking for the
cause he became convinced that Il was
the result of coal tar which was dis
charged into the harbor from the West
station OF the Providence Gas company
iIs accordingly instructed his lawyer TO
claim damages from the Gas company
which. he said were promptly paid by
the company.
IL should be added that Harbor Mas
ter Bucklin did All in his power TO pre-
vent the pollution OF the harbor
In this he sought the aid OF Mayor Ba-
ker and the harbor commissioners but
still the pollution went on. as before
Now. however. the Corinthan Yacht
club and other yacht owners have enter
ed into the controversy and with the
support OF the harbor master. it II quite
probable that the dirty and offensive dis
charge OF coal tar and other obnoxious
substances will be stopped.
