SMALLPOX SCARE
ALARMS PARISIANS

PARIS, April SIN consequence Of
several cases of smallpox having been
reported by the medical authorities OF
this city, NJ Mesurier. the director OF
public assistance. has directed the gov
errors of all hospitals and similar es-
adjustments to have all their employees
vaccinated. Also those of the patients
who are in a condition TO stand it will
have to submit TO vaccination by their
medical attendants.
NJ Simyan. the under-secretary for
the posts and telegraphs. has ordered
that all the employees of the post. tele-
graph and telephone shall be vaccinated
also. Quite apart from these orders
which have to be obeyed. there were
thousands of people TO be seen daily
lately outside the public dispensaries
waiting their turn for this pFecaution-
airy measure, These measures are not
really necessary, but stih IL is thought
better by the authorities that the peo-
pie should be rendered immune from
the disease, so that ii would be praC-
visit the capital. Under these circum-
stances IL is interesting TO study the
statistics regarding vaccination and its
relation 10 smallpox.
IN 1917 745 persons died in Paris from
smallpox. AT the time vaccination was
practiced but little. TO judge from the
number of people who were vaceinated
gratis in 1917. 3,201-
Ia 1906 and 1907 over $4,000 persons
were Vaccinated each year, and IN 1906
there We're in Paris only ten deaths
from smallpox. Never had the num-
Der been so low. Still this does not
promise anything for the future. as this
disease is almost as capricious as the
cholera, and comes and goes, and the
doctors cannot always explain the rea-
son.
In 1850 there were 1881 victims in
Paris. and 277T in the following year
Seventy-tvro years later. in 1873 this
disease caused only u deaths; in 1875
: 50; then two years later, IN 1890
i carried away 215S person.. Since
1885. thanks 10 vaccination having been
. vigorously practiced fewer deaths have
been noted. until at the present time
the average number Of deaths occurring
from smallpox IN Paris each year is
three to every 100 600 inhabitants.
Even this small figure is too high,
as in Berlin and Vienna the disease is
practically stamped out and the average
is zero.

with horse stealing at Ellensburg

He was sentenced November s, 1905,
to four years in the penitentiary for
horse stealing in Kittitas county.
The action of the governor was rec
commended by the warden Of the
prison, the prosecuting attorney. the
sheriff of Kittitas county and other
officials and citizens. on the ground
of previous good character and the
assistance he rendered the state in
the prosecution of another case.
The prisoner on trial at Ellens-

times upon similar charges ut North
Yakima and Ritsville, but always
managed to escape conviction. Par

At meeting of the fruit growers
at Zillah recently a resolution was
adopted to make protest to the city

dumping of sewage into the Yakima
river. The protest mas been re-
ceived by City Clerk BROKER from
E. H. Kielsmeier, secretary of the
meeting, dated January Goth, and
will be placed before the council at
the meeting Monday evening. The
protest reads as follows:

1t is not thought that any action
will be taken by the council, as this
matter has been taken up on several
other occasions and the attorney
general has ruled that North Yakima
has the right to discharge the sew
age into the river, and If the sewage
polluted the stream the city would
not incur any liability therefor I'M
less the pollution arose from faulty
construction of the sewer or from
negligence in the Management of it.

YAKIMA PIONEER
DIES At PORTLAND
LIVED HERE oURIne EIGHTIES
Hiram w. Dickey Was . Frontiers
man Of the Northwest and
Was Widely Known.

Word was received here yesterday
Of the death of Hiram w. Dickey, a
widely known resident ut North
Yakima during the sos. at Port
land, this week. He was engaged in
business here in 1889 and is known
to most all of the pioneers of the
city and county.
He was born at Masillon, Ohio, in
1913, and served as a volunteer in
the United States service, Company
A. Ohio infantry. throughout the
civil war. In 1867 he went to Oma-
ha and, entering the employment Of
the Union Pacific, run the first train
that ever went out from that city.
Soon after he went to Arizona,
crossing the plains with wagon
train.
At this time he had an adventure
that few have ever been called upo 4
to go through, which showed the
pluck and spirit Of the man as a
typical frontiersman. In crossing
the desert the leader of the train
became confused, lost his bearing
and was leading the party away from
water, the supply of which had run
so short that but few small TASKS
remained with which to sustain life
Even that small supply soon gave
out, entailing much suffering. One
OF the party cut the throat Of dog
belonging to a member Of the band
and drank it's blood to appease the
horrible thirst that consumed him.
At this point mutiny occurred, the
entire party refusing to go further
under the guidance Of the leader,
and Mr.. Dickey was chosen to lead
the train to water. This he succeed
ed in doing within few hours. A
party was made up to go back in
search Of the former leader, who had
refused to remain with the party.
His body was found near the camp
where the mutiny had ocucrred. He
had been killed by Indians.
In 1869 Mr.. Dickey went to Kai
anna, Wash, where he held a con-
tract with the Northern Pacific road
which was being built at that time,
to supply all the laborers needed in
the construction work. He opened
several hotels along the line Of the
road and opened the first wholesale
liquor house in Washington at Te-
nino. Soon after this the bank Of
Jay Cook, who was financing the
road, failed, carrying down with it
hundreds in the crash. Mr.. Dickey
held much of the roads paper, for
money advanced to the laborers, and
lost heavily.
Nothing daunted, he went to Port
land in 1879 ana associated himself
with E. Martin & Co., in the whole
sale liquor business. He later op.
ened a cafe under the old Cordrey
theater that became the headquarters
for theatrical people Of that day
Soon after this he removed to North
Yakima. where he engaged in bust
ness for several years.
Returning to Portland, he took up
the timber and mining business,
calling which he followed till illness
compelled him to retire about a year
ago. He was interested in the Alas
kan steamship trade at the time Of
his death. He leaves a wife and four
