The last vestige Of the smallpox at
Burlington has been removed, the two
remaining cases being released from
quarantine Wednesday. An epidemic OF
the disease was at one time threatened
but was averted by the prompt and eff.
Client work OF the health department.
There were 50 houses under quarantine
at one time with over 80 cases Of the
disease. No death resulted, the disease
being of a mild form. 1t is thought
that several cases were never reported
to the health department because medi-
cal aid was not obtained and the
patients did not know the nature of the
disease owing to the mildness OF their
ailments.

with an overcoat and smothered the
flames. The explosion occurred in the
store room opening out OF the main Of
flee of the department. The two men
were preparing torch and had placed
the gasoline in the tank. The instant
the bottle of wood alcohol was uncorked
the explosion occurred. It's origin is not

NAVY BOARD LAUDS
PLAN Of DISCIPLINE
inspectors Like New System
Employed at Barracks in
Port Royal, S. c.

Accompanying its recommendations
for the Improvement of the Atlantic
and Gulf coast naval stations, the navy
hoard of inspection urges Secretary
Daniels to ask Congress for an appro-
priation Of $4,000 TO extend and en-
large the naval disciplinary barracks
al Port Royal s. c. 1t has been urged
in behalf of this institution that IL
gives the navy an opportunity to put in
effect che humanitarian measures which
have been adopted by many of the
progressive States in their treatment of
offenders.
Instead of court-martialing enlisted
men in the navy for all sorts of Of
fenses, detention in the disciplinary
barracks has been found to serve the
purpose better, while saving the heavy
cost frequently accompanying courts
martial The bosrd OF inspection
praised the conduct Of this institution
and believed the Appropriation necessary
to further extend the good work being
done.
Contest Before Daniels.
A spirited contest between New Or
leans and Pensacola, Fla, is expected
to be carried before Secretary Daniels
as a result of the conflicting opinions
given by members of the board of in
Spection with respect to these two sta
tions. The board agreed that the naval

permitted only one attorney to enter at

| by Secretary Meyer in 1911, should be
| Immediately reopened, but Rear Ad-
| miral Edwards, who was president OF
The board, does not agree with the other
three members as to the extent of rs
improvement. Rear Admiral Edwards Is
in favor of Immediately reopening the
New Orleans navy yard. The other
members of the board would keep 1t
closed as at present. One suggestion is
that il be maintained as a base for sup
plies of oil and coal cuel for the fleets in
Southern waters.
Naval officers believe there is no
need for fears by the people OF Boston
or New York navy yards that the navy
yards there will be closed for a long
time to come. The board in this connec-
ton called attention to the encroach-
ments OF commerce and to the impossi-
bility of further extending the area OF
the property in these cities, owing TO
the growing cost of property. 1t was
pointed out that IL would be impossible
to have naval stations at London CT
Liverpool, the water front space being
so valuable.
Appropriation Urged.
This was just brought forward as a
contingency of the future, however, and
the Secretary of the Navy was asked
to recommend appropriations Tor the
improvement of these yards. At New
York $400. 900 for a new shipbuilding
plant and other improvements is asked.
At Boston the Government is urged to
prevent private interests from gaining
a monopoly of the dock rights. made
valuable to the Government by the
mammoth deck and the facilities ii
gives for caring for the largest vessels.
Secretary Daniels withholds comment
on the report. He has had the thou
sand or more pages of the document be-
fore him for some days. however. and
undoubtedly will use the recommenda-
tons as a basis for determining the
rayal stations wants in making up his
estimates for next year.
