RED OAK VACCINATION WAR.
Judge Wheeler Issues Injunction
Against Order Barring the In
ternal Method.

Red Ork, Feb 3,-Judge o. D.
Wheeler of the district court handed
down his verdict in the case of Rem
mers and Powell VS.. the school board,
board of health ct al, in which they
asked for an injunction restraining the
said boards from enforcing the order
of the board of health prohibiting chill
dren not vaccinated by the scarifica-
ton method from attending the public
schools of this city. The case was
heard last Saturday and after Judge
Wheeler had deliberated until Thurs
day he brought in a verdict granting a
temporary injunction to the plaintiffs.
Health Officer Kelley Immediately ad'
vised the board to admit all pupils re.
CARELESS of the method of vaccination
The case grew out of an apparent,
though it is believed unintentional, dis
elimination against the physicians
practicing the internal vaccination by
the use of variolinum, or the blister
system, and other methods not believ,
ed by the general practitioners to be
as efficacious as the old fashioned
methods, and the order was made with
a view to doing all possible to check
the incipient epidemic in this locality
The case will be taken to higher
court and threshed out to finish.

DISASTER AT cENTERviLLE.
Two Houses Of Well Known Families
Burn to Ground--In One Case
Fatality Nav Result.

Fatality May Result.
Centerville, Feb. 3,-The ]. B. Mar
ing residence, situated near the former
home of Governor Drake on Drake
avenue and one of the finest OF the
older homes of the city, was ruined by
fire, causing a heavy loss. The nre
occurred while Mrs. Maring was at the
bedside of dying grandchild where
she had been called at an early hour,
and the only person in the house at
the time was Mr.. Maring, who is Grip
pied. He turned in the alarm and
put forth great effort to save his prop
erty, and was with difficulty persuaded
to leave the building by the firemen.
He had only recently recovered from
an attack of sickness and had not been
able to be at the Maring Clothing
store of which he is manager. 1t is
feared that he has over-exerted ana
exposed himself. An oyerheated fur'
mace probably caused the fire.
| Another bad fire was that which de-
stroyed the farm home of Henry Wells
south Of this city Friday night while
the thermometer registered degrees
below zero and the wind was blowing
a gale. The family barely escaped witt
clothing and a few personal belongings
and a sick daughter had to be car
ried out of the house. While the sicl
girl was being taken to the home of
neighbor the carriage broke down II
a huge snow drift
Both the Marings and the Wells
families are old residents of this com
munity.
