VACCINATION CLAIMS ONE
Former Student Of State Agricultural
College Dies in California.

Former Student of State Agricultural
College Dies in California.
H. Elmer Richardson, student at
the Minnesota college of agriculture
last year, died Thursday at Arlington,
CAL, of a peculiar form of tuberculosis
said to have been caused by improper
vaccination nearly a year ago.
Mr.. Richardson was a student at the
farm school when smallpox broke out
last fall and was vaccinated with the
others. The preventive in several
of the cases came nearer being fatal
than the disease, and it was this way
with Richardson. He narrowly escaped
death by blood poisoning, and a few
weeks later the symptoms of tuber-
culosis appeared. He was compelled to
leave school and go south. He soon
! learned that he had galloping consump'
ton and went to California, where he
failed rapidly.
The Dung mans relatives are not
disposed to fix the blame for his death
but say that the vaccinations were toe
rapid to be safe. He was member OF
the St. Anthony Methodist church ano
had Just passed his twenty first birth
day. He is survived by his parents
four sisters and two brothers. The flu
neral was held at Arlington, CAL, Sun
| day.

CHASTITY RELIC
COMES BY MAIL
PARCELS POST BRING HUMAN
HEAD FROM JAPAN.
The Mummiied Top-Piece of Some Old
Time Subject of the Mikado Added
to a Minneapolis Collection-Odd
Jewelry from China Comes in Same
Shinment

A human head from Japan and a
piece of heron feather jewelry from
China are the first consignments to
reach the Minneapolis postoffice under
the new parcelspost convention with
those countries. The duty was paid in
San Francisco by the importer, Chi
nese property holder In the twin cities.
The head has been SO altered by Sc
cret chemical processes that it re-
sembles a carving in wood. The secret
is now known to only one family in
japan, the Tanakas of Yokohama, but
was formerly an art known to several
South American Indian tribes. The
heads are secured from Canton, China,
after beheading and are imported to
Japan. The heads are wrapped closely
with bandages, and are soaked In d1f-
ferent chemicals. This produces hard,
ening and shrinkage of the fbers and
former size and is as hard as wood
During the treatment it becomes a red
dish brown, but may be bleached to its
natural colors.
The heron feather jewelry is one OF
the strangest creations Of the "howery
kingdom,V and is manufactured al
Shanghai and Canton. The heron is {
difficult bird to capture and there Ii
only one feather in each tail that cal
be used. This is then cut into minute
fragments, which form the basis Of
blue enamel. The enamel is used OF
some of the finest Chinese jewelry. Tn

TWO MORE CONTRIBUTIONS
Thanksgiving Offering for Waconia and
School Collection for Lockwoods.

The Waconia relief fund was in
creased this morning by thanksgiving
offering of $40. That amount was sent
to The ournal and was immedi:
ately turned over to Wallace G. Nye of
the public affairs committee of the Com
mercial club to add to the sum already
on hand. G.. B. Gunderson, who has
property at Minnetonka, writes that he
sustained no damage by the storm of
Aug. 20 which swept the shores of the
lake. For this reason Mr.. and Mrs.
Gunderson feel that they can afford to
contribute something for the relief of
those who did suffer from the effects
of the tornado.
TheJ Journal also received today
an envelop containing the collection
of M room at the Monroe school for
the Lockwood relief fund. This was
turned over to MIR. Nye to be included
in the fund which Mayor Haynes is re;
ceiving for the relief of the Lockwood
family, which suffered so terribly from
the recent smallpox scourge.
