Echo of Smallpox Epidemic.
DR.. C. Gilchrist appeared before
the council with his bill for $3.50
and asked that the council take some
final action on it one way or the
other. The bill is relict of former
administrations. Two years ago this
fall during the smallpox epidemic,
DR.. Gilchrist looked after the cpl
demic as a city health officer during
the absence of DR.. Culp. He charged
for his services SO day. The bill
was presented to the council the last
night of the Scheble administration.
Like all bills of this character, it hal
to be audited by the finance commit
tee and when it came up later that
body turned it down on the grounds
that the bill was excessive-it be-
ing claimed that inasmuch as DR..
Gilchrist was deputy for City
Health Officer Culp that he could not
collect only the $40 per month al
lowed as health officer. The bill has
kept coming up at various intervals
but DR.. Gilchrist Informed the coun-
Gil last night that he had tired of
waiting and the city would be sued
for the amount it was not paid. The
council last night refused to allow
the payment of the bill and doubt
less DR.. Gilchrist will commence ac-
tion against the city.
