 Yesterday afternoon on report of Dr David, Health Officer Kilmartin and Dr Frost examined the condition of 8 fifteen years old girl at the Landressie residence, 117 Division street, and de- cided that she was suffering from smallpox The house was quaran- tined and the patient will be removed to the isolation hospital tonight There are two families in the build ing
 James Trepanier of Silver street al- most scared the wits out of the em- ployes of the city hall annex this morning. He stepped in and re marked that he was q smallpox pa tient and thought that it was strange that he should be at large. The clerks looked at each other and acted as if they were about to make q mad rush for the door when MT Trepanier qualified his statement by saying that one would think so by what was in the papers last night. Some of his chil- dren, he said, were sick a short time ago and he had q physician. but nothing was said which would lead him to believe that they had smallpox and he did not see why anyone should say so now ''They claim,'' he continued, that the disease has been i'll my house since February r. On that date We had q child born to us and if the doctors call that smallpox then the French people have no monopoly of it and all such cases should be reported He also added that he had been left home from his work at Plume x Atwoods $ since the sickness was discovered at his brothers house on Walnut street and that he didn't think that they had smallpox either. Later he made ar engagements with the health authori- ties to have his house fumigated this afternoon so that after this has been done there does not seem to be any reason why MT Trepanier or his fam fly should be summed any more than others whose places have been simil- arly treated and the occupants liber- ated. The house never was quaran- tined.
 Word was received here to-day from the health officer at South Britain stating that d colored man named Chatfield, now stopping there, who was supposed to have been a boarder ill the Wayside Inn in this city until recent ly, had smallpox. Chief Egan inyes- tigated the matter and learned that two colored men of that name. fathes and son, had registered at the Inn, but had left there before the place was quarantined. The father was not in the place for several weeks before that time and the son got out two days bs- fore Barry's case was discovered
 Health Officer Kilmartin told a Democrat reporter this morning that nothing new had developed in the smallpox situation since the case on Division street. Mrs Trepanier, who with her family was removed from Walnut street to the isolation hospital the other day, has contracted the dis ease. Her three months old baby was afflicted with the malady before they were removed. It is doubtful if the little one will be able to go through the sickness and live. All the pa tients are getting along well and it is hoped that we'll have no more deaths there, children or adults. At the present time there are thirty-five pa tients in the hospital The quaran- tined parties in the Mccarthy block will be inspected tomorrow and if ev- erything is found all right steps will be taken to discharge them at the ear Hest opportunity.
 The health authorities were notified to-day that Isaac Trepanier and fam fly had moved into q building on Chambers street. The neighbors knew nothing about them except that MT Trepanier is a brother of the other families of that name who have been mentioned i'll connection with the smallpox. It is a question if obiec- tlon should be raised against a family on this account unless it could be shown that they had been visitors to the places where the disease existed.
 Milk Inspector Keeley has yolun- teered to help out Sanitary Inspector Moses until the smallpox scare is over. He will attend to all matters reported at the city hall annex relative to nui- sances. People who know of unsani- tary back yards or surface closets should report at the city hall annex
 Nothing has developed in the condi- ton of James Semple of Oakville to warrant the authorities in believing that he is going to have smallpox.
 Attorney Lawlor, president of the board of health. said this afternoon that Sanitary Inspector Moses and Lieutenant Burns of the Salvation army shelter had attended to the needs of the people in the I4awlor block rela- tive to the condition of the closets. Mr Lawlor had Attorney Brett employed to look out for his interests and it is understood that there would have been something doing to-day if repairs had not been made
