SMALLPOX
SIEGE.
Forty Broaddus Institute Students Are
Happy, Quarantine Having Been
Raised and Disease Smoth-
cred Out,

There was about forty happy students
and teachers at Broaddus today. That
number or more, after being imprisoned
for three weeks, have been released, none
Of these having developed any symptoms
of the disease. Those who were actually
infected with the unpleasantness which
was pronounced a mild species of.small-
pox, had no sickness or trouble to speak
of, which certainly was fortunate for
the school and the community. 1t seems
that the school got the disease through
family where some OF the children had
mild skin eruption that had gone on
for some time, but no physician had
classed it as smallpox or authorized
quarantine. The precautions taken at
Broaddus, however, were certainly proper
and now that all the buildings and rooms
are being disinfected in scientific man
ner, there will be no further danger. 1t
is announced that all the pupils will re-
turn to the school next Wednesday.
