Not a New Discovery.

Editor OF The Tribune:
Sir-Plca>c allow me TO make known to Your
readers that aSeptic vaccination is no new dis.
covery as is claimed from the reported expert
ments furnished by two local ''homcos" in Sat.
urday's issue of your valuable paper. The fact
is that aseptic vaccination is practiced by every
regular up-to.date physician throughout the
country. Wherever II package of reliable vaccine
is sent, printed circular goes with it giving
explicit directions as 10 the necessary prccau-
tions TO be followed in its employment
No intelligent physician, therefore, has any
logical reason for not knowing that aseptic
or surgical cleanliness is required in vaccina.
tion.
And ii should be understood by all that sore
arms from vaccination are not always due to a
lack OF pure virus or cleanliness; because much
depends the temperament and constitution
OF the person Vaccinatcd.
Some skin disease, such as eczema if present,
will cause the process of vaccination to take
on an aggravated FORM Likewise a cold or con-
gcstion is liable to give trouble. And people
who are addicted to eating fat meats, cond.
mentS, and pastry, or indulge in the use OF
alcoholic drinks, are most certain to suffer
from large angry vaccination sores, in spite Of
aseptc measures
Vaccine virus is poison, and when introduced
into the blood sets up chemical or physiolo.
gtcal change in the sysem-likc leayen in -four,
it leayenth the whole body. And while the
virus is operating more or less physical dis.
turbance is likely to take place, as indicated
by elevation of temperature or fever, increase
OF heart action, loss OF vitality, languor, indi.
gestion, and general weakness. but it is a
great satisfaction TO know that after il has had
full sway for several days, the affected persons
fully recover, and are rendered practically inn.
mme against the rayages of smallpox which is
far more to be dreaded than vaccination.

REMAINS OF WILLIAM coYNE.
They Arrived in This City Yester-
day from Asheville, N. G.

The remains of William Coyne, son
ofsMr. and Mrs. Philip II. Coyne, ar
rived in this city yesterday afternoon
from Asheville, N. c., where he died
Friday morning, and were taken to the
family residence at Adams avenue and
Vine street.
Mr.. Coyne went to Asheville q month
ago with his father and mother in the
hope that the change of climate might
work an Improvement in his health. "A
decided change for the better was OBJ
served and when the elder Mr.. Coyne
was summoned to return to his busi-
ness interests in this city he was hope
full of the recovery of his son. Last
week he received word that the young
mans condition had grown worse and
Immediately started for Asheville arriv-
ing there few hours too late to see
his son in life
Arrangements were at once made to
bring the remains home and Mr.. and
Mrs. Coyne began their sorrowful jour
ney northward. The funeral will be held
tomorrow morning at . o'clock from
the house. A solemn high mass of re-
Cathedral and interment will be made
in the Cathedral cemetery.
The death of Mr.. Coyne caused gen.
eral sorrow among his friends and ac-
quaintances in this city. He was born
here 81 years ago and enjoyed an ac-
quaintance with the people of this city
and it's vicinity possessed by few men
of his years. Whole-souled and gem
erors, ever courteous and charitable of
speech he won the regard of all whom
he met. He had carved for himself
prominent place in the business life of
this community when he was stricken
with the malady which resulted in his
death Besides his father and mother
he is survived by II sister and two
brothers. They are Mrs. Hortense
Congdon, of Binghamton, and Leo and
Stanley Coyne of this city.

That Does Not Mean That Fire In
surance Rates Have Been Re
stored to Their Former Basis.

The following copy of Il letter re-
ceived by the Scranton Underwriters
association from the Underwriters as
sociation of the middle department was
on Saturday sent to all of the fire in
surance agents of this city and it's vi
cinity.
Philadelphia, Pa, Feb. 20, 1902.
Mr. John NJ. Hughes, Scranton, Pa.
Dear Sir: At Il meeting of this association,
held on the 18th inst, the following relating
to ''Pinl Slip Charges, was adopted:
First-That rates all property within the
corporate limits of The city of Scranton and the
borough Of Dunmorc be advanced 80 l-3 per cent,
as of March ., 1902, with the following excep-
tions only:
Dwellings and their contents and all special
hazards upon which new rates have been pro-
mulgated under Middle Department schedules
since Sept 1G, 1901.
The foregoing advance 10 continue in force un-
til such time as a general rc-rating by revised
schedules and the promuleation of a new tariff
shall have been made by the association.
No rebates OF pink slip charges shall he al
lowed on any policies now in force, bearing said
slips.
Cancellation of policies carrying the pinl,
slip. whether at short rates or pro rata, shall
be reported to the companies through the stamp
clerk. and by him recorded.
Any insurance written subsequent or prior
thereto which directly or indirectly replaces the
whole or a part Of the line shall be at not less
than the rate, including pink slip charge OF the
cancelled policy
Very truly yours,
(Sgncd) l.. h. Clemcncc Secretary.
This means that the rate on dwellings
will be the same as it was before the
'pink' slip was put on policies, but
there will be no rebate of the insurance
paid under that arrangement.
On all other kinds Of insurance there
will be an increase of SO 1-3 per cent on
the rate that prevailed before the
pink slip increase went into force.

lying an infant in her arms from se-
flous injury If nothing more. The

The animal took fright near the Con-
hell building and making a sudden
Ftart threw the driver out into the
|treet. The horse dashed up the ave-
eue at terrific speed and when near
Spruce street was coming on directly
p the path of IA woman with baby
fh her arms, who was crossing the
Etreet.
Patrolman McHale. who was stand
|lg on the corner, realized that some-
Ihing must be done and he made a leap
N the horse catching the reins and
fling him to n standstill within a
BIT of where the woman stood. Citi-
hs witnessing the act We're loud in
eir appreciation of the parolmans
