 PHYSICIAN, HEAL THYSELF. Isn't it rather remarkable that the otherwise shrewd and wiley Japanese having such an excellent supply o1 lymph on hand, should have failed tC benefit from it's use-as evidenced by I.those 171,5OO cases in the nine years
 ending in 1908? 4S,0oo deaths from smallpox, among the little brown peo-
 plea grim and ghastly toll levied by the Demon of the Uncovered Sewer and Exposed Cesspool!
 The Japanese should have improv- ed their vaccine pus by strain of Carabao calf. Or, better still, adopted the rigorous sanitary system which has caused the disappearance of cpl denlic and zymotic diseases in other lands, where the Goddess Hyg1ea has had longer residence.
 Smallpox has no more reason for be- ing than has the plague, Typhus, o1 Typhoid.
 It is filth disease, bred and per petuated in filth. When we clean up and keen clean-as they are now doing in the Phillipines-it will disappear from the face of the earth. But vac cination-with an American. Japan ese. or CarabaO cultivated lymph-has absolutely nothing to do with its grad ual extinction.

MINERS TO RESUME WORK
End Of Great English Coal
 Strike Is In Sight
Special from United Press. )

NOpGCldl ATOIu OuItSu 1I6SS)
 London. March 2e.-The strike of the coal miners became more of a national problem, today, following a conference held by the miners con- ference committee and a committee of the operators. While these con- ferences were separate, their conclu- Sions were the same.
 They both condemned the govern ment's minimum wage scale bill. Both asserted that the bill was so framed as to defeat its purpose. Especially was the failure to incorporate a pen alty for violation criticised.
 After the conference the committee of the operators said the bill con tained no guarantees that the miners would live up to it's provisions. They insisted that it utterly failed to pro- tect the employer from miners who worked unfaithfully.
 The miners committee also insisted that it was inadequate in that the only recourse that a miner who re- ceived less than the minimum scale had was a civil suit against the en- ployer, which would cost more than it would be worth.
 Meanwhile, the government off cials are preparing to get the bill through the House and signed by the King, not later than Saturday. They believe that so far as the English miners are concerned, they will ac- cept the provisions or the measure and that mining will be resumed in England, next week.
 With these mines in operation, the government believes, the Scotch and Welsh mine owners must give in, Otherwise, they will lose trade as they will be unable to supply the demand for coal while the English operators, by operating to capacity can get many regular customers away from their trade rivals. Fear of this, the officials say, will end the strike ev- erywhere

DOES VACCINATION PROTECT?

Under the above caption. The New
 York Sun presents very interesting
 compilation of Absolutely reliable'
 statistics, by Surgeon General Turney,
 smallpox among American troops in
 the Philippines, has been conquered by
 vaccinat ton.
 Incidentally he contradicts Chief
 Surgeon Lippincot who declared that
 ''No Army was ever so thoroughly
 looked after in the matter of vaccin-
 ation as ours Vaccination and re-
 went on as regularly as drills in an
 army post
 BUT STILL THE OBSTINATE SOL DEER PERSISTED IN DYING. And still the obstinate soldiers per- sisted in dying of smallpox until years of white mans occupancy brought or der and cleanliness out of chaos and filth, and the death rate dropped cor respondingly. as it always will. They haven't developed this perfec- tion of sanitary technique in Japan as yet, although they vaccinate. Oh yes, they vaccinate.
 Vaccination is compulsory during the first six months, again at six years, yet again at fourteen, and then again
 during every epidemic. For males there is an additional inoculation up-
 
 Surgeon General Takaki although he didn't furnish statistics as Dq.
 Turney does-wrote Smallpox, once
 the scourge of the Island, is now all
 but unknown"
 And yet between 1899 and 1909 there were 172,500 cases of smallpox in | Japan, an average of $500 a year With 48,OOO deaths, mortality of 2s 1 per cent.
 Tn 1908 when the fruits of it's rigor- ous vaccination laws should have been harvested there were 1S,00O cases with | 6, 900 deaths, a mortality of g per cent Still we believe that vaccination prevents smallpox? And these sta- tistics also from government sources | mark you.
 pr. Turney adds-by way of explain l ing the 737 cases which developed. be- tween 1898 and 1902-with 261 deaths that the efficiency of the first vaccin- ton was proved to be due to inert lymph from San Francisco. New Lymph was procured from Japan, but ! it was difficult to maintain it's activ- l ity fin the warm climate, the Board of Health fin Manila however, soon produced fresh lymph from Ca~-bao

Warrants have been issued for the
 10 delinquents on the personal tax
 tax list. Two of these are for prom
 inent men and the other eight are for non-residents whose present
 whereabouts are unknown.
 Stratford, Mar. 20-And now comes the residents of California street and ask that the thoroughfare be widened from a cart path to a street to bet ter cOmport with the name. No one seems to know just where the street
 that uniform width of 45 feet be es- tablished by law. There is only one objector to this width, MT. Bankwitz, who owns the property at the corner of Barnum avenue. He advocates width of 40 feet because the wider
 proposition if adopted will destroy the shade trees on his place which he values highly and will demand a con- siderable compensation for if they are removed. Some of the property own-
 CTS on the street will advocate lay
 out 45 feet wide the whole length of
 the street with the exception of the portion adjoining the Bankwitz hold feet until some future time when the owner may feel more kindly to the extra five feet. The experience of Bridgeport in laying out narrow streets has been very expensive. As the city has grown and the traf- f1c has increased widening has been necessary after buildings had been erected which has increased the ex- pense enormously. The western plan of laying out, towns with an idea of future needs has proved profitable. l When the town is small and the land l is cheap it costs little for the extra width of a few feet. If the town grows there is never any need tearing l down what has cost much money to
 build. If the town does not grow the residents are amply repaid by the inn proved appearance of the town 1 through wide thoroughfares. Much
 building is planned for this street and it's proposed extension through the property of Gus Johnson, the may Or of Johnsville, who has already erect l ed five houses on the proposed exten- sion this winter. The change is de manded on account of the prospective increase of homes on the street and il Is asserted with good reason that now is the best time in the world to accom- plish the improvement.
