Durham n. c., Jan. 4.-This morn

tary board of the county at which RE
old smallpox accounts made by the
county and city during the recent c!i-
denies, We're threshed over. AT tht
beginning Of The first scare several
years ago the city and county author
ities made q compact by which the
city was TO pay one-half of the ex-
penses incurred in caring for the pal
tents found inside the city limits and
the county pay ali for patients outside
the city There have been three set
tlments under this agreement and now
tho city and county people are about
to get into trouble over settlement To-.
he last three years
The county has spent q total Of So
0S5 in caring for patients found III
he city in 1902-3-4. This is halt The
city's obligation. Last year the city
ordered compulsory vaccination and fo'
this a total of $4,000 was spent. Nay
the city claims that the county should
pay half Of this amount, or rather de-
duct $1,100 from the city's half OF
the S3,0S5. The commissioners say
that this is not right and was not con
templatea in the original agreement.
This matter came before the sani-
tary board this morning. Under the
law this board IS composed Of the
members OF the board of county COM
missioners. and two physicisits ore
each appointed by the city and he
county. The boaru after looking int
the matter decided that the county has
nothing to do with the compulsory
vaccination claim and that the city
should pay half of the county'a debt.
The matter Will be presented To The
aldermen at the next regular NEE:

onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
