antine, The Connersville News says:
Thanks to the alertness of the city
authorities, today. the community will
be saved from any evil results that
might have followed what seems to
have been criminal neglect on the part
of the authorities at Richmond.
Ora Mains, who resides with his par
ents on Mulberry street. between
Eighth and Ninth streets. and who has
been working and boarding at Rich
mond. came home sick. Saturday night.
This morning a health officer pro-
nounced his case smallpox. Immedi-
ate steps were taken by the city eu-
thorities to prevent possible spread
of the disease. The street was ropetl
off, flag put on the house and every
thing done that advanced science for
the prevention Of the spread of contag-
ious disease was done.
An extra session of the city council
will be held this evening. when the
matter will be fully discussed and il
is possible the city school board will
be asked as to the ACCESSIBILITY. in their
opinion of inaugurating general vac
cination campaign.
