The tenth victim of smallpox in
West Scranton was reported yesterday
to DR.. Paine, in the person of Mrs
Adolph Lentz, of 1880 Price street, wife
Of Ensign LentZ, of the Salvation
army. She was taken i'll several days
ago, having visited the Parry home in
the Mears' hall building before the
place was quarantined.
The case has been under suspicion,
and as soon as the rash developed was
reported by the attending physician.
The house has been placarded and
quarantined, and an officer assigned to
guard the premises. The names Of. all
the people who have visited the house
of late will be secured, and they will
be guarded to prevent possible spread
of the disease. The Salvation Army
barracks on Price street has been
closed and will be fumigated.
Mrs. Lentz was vaccinated on Thurs
day last, but the disease had taken
hold of her before this. The Brace and
Parry children are reported out of dan

PADEREWsKI THE ARTIST.
What Some of the Celebrities Saw
About Him.

Mr. Paderewski is here to conduct
his opera Manu-" and his critics will
again resolve him into sun myth and
spin literary webs out of his yellow
locks. His personal appearance has
always fascinated them. Women have
been content to listen to his playing
and refresh their tired selves in the
wonderful quietness of his art; but the
male mind has been caught in the
neshes of his hair faster than gnats in
q cobweb." Even Burne- Jones saw in
Paderewski's clear cut profile an anal
ogy to comet with its fiery tress, and
Alma Tadema laid a web of angelic
forms behind his WaVy locks. The
ecstasy of the artists European ad-
mrers even touches the borders of the
comic. Take for instance the follow
ing from the pen of distinguished
French critic:
His winged reputation; the beauti-
full countenance OF fallen angel whose
mysterious fire the pencil of Burne-
Jones knew how to seize: his Masaccio
hair, framing in artistic disorder the
face of Lucifer, whose aureole has been
changed into hair; his refined and sub
tile spirit; the rare grace of his man
ner proclaim the elevation of his gem
ius."
But Alfred Nossig, the librettist of
"Manru," has gone even further, The
name of a grand piano in German is
fugel-a wing Nossig has connected
the open lid of this instrument with
the pinions of the Babylonlan seraph
with six wings, as described in the
Bible; with train he covered his face.
with twain he covered his feet, and
with twain did he fly" And so he
has come down to us in the sculptures
of the winged Babylonian lion with a
human face. "In the lines of Pader-
ewski's head and In his figure" pro-
ceeds Nosslg, there is something which
lends itself most happily to the COM
plement of an open grand piano. When
he plays he seems to grow into one
with it. We even believe that we are
gazing upon winged seraph and list
ening to his mighty song"
The widest admirer of Wagners
muse never achieved anything more
grotesdue than this.

CONDITION OF SUFFERERS.
w. j. Morgan, of Swetland street.
and Mrs. William Allspaugh, of North
Bromley avenue, are recovering, but
the case OF Mrs. James Brace, of North
Garfield avenue, is quite serious. The
condition Of Councilman Evan Evans,
of Roberts court is developing, but as
yet, cannot be determined fully as 10
the outcome.
The child of Alfred Rodney, of 1O7
North Seventh street, which was sus-
pected as smallpox, has been investi-
gated by DR.. Paine, who reports it as
chicken-poX. Councilman Evans de-
MES having visited the Brace house but
once, and says that was the night
George Lewis died.
At that time he went there and re-
ceived some messages from Mrs. Lew
is, which he claims to have re-copied
and sent out by telegraph to relatives
and friends in different parts OF the
country. He also denies having helped
to burn the clothing and beGclothing of
the victims.
Dr. Paine, who is looking after the
cases for the, bureau of health, has
been considerably annoyed by people
who come in contact with him. He
states positively that all the work in
connection with the cases Is performed
after 10 o'clock at night, and before
and after visiting his patients takes
the following precautions:
In a special room in the Mears' hail

same time starts a strong formalde-
hyde machine at work fumigatinG

work while he is making his visits.
DONS OLD CLOTHING.
He >then attires himself in another
outfit OF old clothing, places rubber
hood over his head, covering his hair
completely. over his clothes he wears
rubber coat, reaching down to his
feet
A strong solution of formaldehyde is
then prepared, in. which he bathes his
face and hair. Then he dips his hands
in solution of bichloride of mercury,
and is ready to visit his patients. On
his return to the room he again dips
his hands in the solution of bichlorde
of mercury, changes his clothing, thor
oughly fumigates himself and retires
from the building.

FREE vACCINATIoN.
Director of Public Safety T.. l.. Worm
SER superintendent Allen, of the bureau
of health, and DR.. John O'Malley, chair
man of the school boards special COM
mittee on vaccination, conferred yes
terday afternoon on the question of free
vaccination.
When Mr.. Chittenden's resolution pro-
viding for free vaccination and direct
ing that it be done in certain rooms in
the public schools of the city, was in
troduced in councils, DR.. O'Malley eX-
pressed himself as being opposed to the
opening of the public schools for such
purposes. At yesterdays conference,
however, he agreed to permit one room
in one school in each ward to be opened
on Saturdays, providing that these
rooms shall be thoroughly fumigated
after use.
Superintendent Allen decided to be-
gin the work of free vaccination next
Saturday and will, before that day, see
to the purchase of sufficient quantity
of vaccine virus and will engage the
services of at least one physician IN
each ward to do the work.
DR.. O'Malley said last night that 80
per cent. of the school children in the
city have been vaccinated and that
teachers in every school, including the
High school, have been instructed to
strictly enforce the order of the board
prohibiting the admission to school of
all children who have not been vaccin-
ated.
THE teachers, too," said the doctor,
'must get vaccinated. I have heard of
one school in which only two out Of
the eleven teachers are vaccinated.
That's condition of affairs that should
not exist, and it won't exist If l can put
Il stop to it. ! am told that among our
teachers are to be found two or three
very pronounced anti-vaccinatonists
who loudly proclaim that under no cir
cumstances will they be vaccinated.
You can say that If these teachers
| don't get vaccinated within week,
| they will lose their positions"

Of a physician continually.
The residents Of this nuighborhood are highly
indignant over the matter. and feariully appre'
