county, whose trial for non-enforee-
ment of the prohibitory laws was
scheduled for Monday has been
placed in quarantine at his residence
at the county Jail at Rockland, and
is likely to be unable to appear be-
fore the joint convention of the Legis-

is instituted as a precaution against
the spread of smallpox in that vicini-
ty, where it has become alarmingly
prevalent.
According to an Associated Press

IF Austin NJ. Titus, last week, served
a writ at "a house in Appleton, in
which a patient was recovering from
smallpox The State Board of Health
was notified and, in consequence he
was sent to his home in Union. The
sheriffs residence was quarantined by
the local Board of Health, for the pres
ent, and the country court house was
fumisated.

house janitor, Martin S. Britto be-
