 ffOu Lava.

Headland. March Especial. )--Mr. E. c. Davis, a young man, yet in his teens was arraigned before the mayor yesterday on a charge of violating the prohibition laws, on two counts. A fine of $1O0 and costs was imposed in each case.

Compulsory Vaccination.

An ordinance has been issued by the city authorities compelling the com pulsory vaccination suggested by the City Health Board Such steps are deemed necessary by the physicians because of the number of small pox cases which have recently broken out among the negro population of sne city. During the past two weeks about fifteen mild cases of small pox have been discovered among negro residents. The majority of these cases were among the negro students at the Southern University, and as soon as they were discovered, that institution was quarantined. Since then cases among negroes have been discovered in various parts of the city.
 It Is proposed now that everybody
 in the city who has not been vacci- mated within the past few years shall be vaccinated. The city authorities
 are having the police department to canvass the city to find out who is subject to vaccination. The cases of the disease which have been oiscov- cred are of mild form. but the City Health Board believe in taking all ne- cessary precautions to prevent its spread.

 Tn Eden," says Dr. Landman, there is always work to do. There is beau- ty for the eye and joy for the ear. There is health, independence and rich es too for him who employs brain with his muscle for making the earth give up tho blessings hidden there.
