SCARLET
FEVER AT
NEWPORT

Because Of the breaking out Of scarlet
fever at the Naval Training station at
Newport recruits enlisted at tho local re-
c%ruiting office Of the United States navy
are being sent to Boston instead OF to
Newport.
The regular camp OF the sailors Is not
troubled with the malady, which was car
ried to Coasters Island by two new re-
cruits 4 few days ago. New arrivals at
tho training station are kept by them
selves for three weeks after reporting for
duty. and II IS owing TO this precautoin
that the spread Of the diease among the
many mon stationed there was preonted.
The new men ara detained At the old
barracks. where the accommodations are
good. but they are entirely isolated from
tho other departments at the station.
Tho local recruiting office has been do
ing a good business this month. Twenty
eight men have thus far been enlisted
The greater part Of these were sent to
Newport for duty. but since last Friday
new recruits have been sent to Boston.
