ABOUT 2OOO GIVEN VACCINE YESTERDAY Health Officer Almost Swamped
 By the Rush OFFICERS ARE PLEASED Dr. Hardness Thinks the Situation Now We'll in Hand and Feels That
 Smallpox Epidemic Will
 Re Impossible
OFFICERS ARE PLEASED

That the Birmingham board of health and Mayor O'Brien were not joking when they issued the order for every one in the city who could not show scar to be vaccinated, has at last been realized and the throng of people, both white and black, that laid seize to the city hall yesterday waiting to be vac cinated was startling.
 Early in the morning it was antic- ipated that a rush was going to pe made on the men who were stationed in the office of the health depart ment and who were doing the vsc- cinating and a split was made in the forces. pr. Luckie and Health ohi- cer B. F. Puckett placed a tabei ana equipment in the spacious hallway or the second floor of the city hall and with several assistants attended to vac cinating the negroes. It was estimated that at about o'clock yesterday aft ernoon there were over 100 negroes of all ages waiting for their turn to be "vassinated." Each man had spe- cial office to perform in the operation One washed the arm with diluted acid, another made the scratch and produced the blood, another put the vaccine into the wound, and another man wrote out vaccination certificates for the victims The exact count has not been made but Health officer Puckett estimated last night that about 2000 people ln- cluding both negroes and whites had been vaccinated during the day. This O 7Qp who were vaccinated Wednesday.
 Under the direction of pr. Hark- ness and several assistants the white people were vaccinated in the offices of the health deps rtment. While they were not so numerous as the negroes there was a goodly number at the or fee to receive the virus into their arms.
 pr. Hardness said that sub stations for vaccination purposes would be es- tablished today at Ensley. Woodlawn, West End, North Birmingham and the other suburbs of the city. This Is ex- pected greatly to facilitate matters by getting the vaccinating physicians closer to the people.
 Arrests are being made every day of those who have failed to fulfill the order of the mayor. Special policemen have been detailed to look after this and white people will be arrested as well as the negroes.
 The health officers expressed them selves as being well pleased with yes terday's results. Hardness sai6 tha- he felt sure that an epidemic of small pox, especially among the negro pop ulation, had been prevented by the de7 termined efforts of the health officers.

 Those who have seen the gas well all give the same account of there being every indication that the company is soon to strike oil. Those who have studied conditions and records of oil wells that have been discovered in other locations at previous times, say the conditions are very similar to those now existing at Fayette.
 The talk about the situation has been going on for some time and seems to grow daily in the minds of the people that Fayette will soon be the mecca for all promoters who are after speculation.
