Resolutions OF Respect.

On the occasion OF the death Of MIR. w.
n. Lemen, our fellow elder, the session OF
the Shepherdstown Presbyterian Church
would record our gratitude 10 God for his
Christian character, exemplary life and
useful services. He was a gallant and
fearless Confederate soldier, a devoted
father, true friend, a man of the Strictest
integrity, whose influence in business,
politics and the church commanded the
confidence of all who knew him. He
was member of our church for forty
years, a ruling elder for ttirty-seven
years, Sunday school superintendent for
sixteen years, and clerk OF session for
ten years, all OF which positions he filled
with fidelity and success. His leader
ship in every good work and his large
liberaity to all religious and charitable
causes make us mourn his loss the more.
A good man has gone TO glory.
E. H. REINHART, Clerk Of Session.

Typhoid Fever In Maryland.

There is serious epidemic of typhoid
fever in Washington county, Md, and
new cases are still being developed.
DR.. w. D. Campbell, health officer, last
Monday reported total of 9S cases.
There are IS cases in Hagertown, six in
Williamsport, 80 in Hancock, and smaller
numbers in other towns and villages.
At Hancock it is said that eight cases de-
veloped among the customers Of one
milkman who had sickness in his family.
F. T. Cohill is the seventh member OF
his family TO be taken down with fever,
he and his wife both being belfast at this
time. Warnings are issued by the board
of health TO boil all drinking water.
Springs and wells are low and dust is
flying in every direction, thus helping to
spread the disease.
The Western Maryland Railroad Com
pany has caused its entire operating force,
including engineers, firemen, conductors
and brakemen, to be vaccinated with the
anti-typhoid serum, and this seems to be
an absolute preventive OF the disease.
The treatment is becoming more and more
common, and it is hoped that eventually,
through its application, this country will
be able TO rid itself of the scourge OF ty-
phoid fever. The method OF anti-typhoid
vaccination differs from that of smallpox,
in that the arm is not scarified, as in the
case with smallpox, but the vaccine is
injected under the skin of the arm. Three
doses at intervals of ten days are required
to make one immune from the typhoid
fever germ.
Vaccination against typhoid fever was
made compulsory Tor all men in service
over forty-five years of age in the United
States Army, covering approximately
$1,000 vaccinations. In 1911, 1858 were
immuDized against typhoid fever, during
which year the mortality rates were the
lowest ever recorded in the medical his
tory of the army. During this year there
were but forty-four cases of typhoid,
with six deaths, in the men in U. S.
Army service. During 1906, which was
previous to the introduction of anti-ty-
phoid vaccination, there were 373 cases
with IS deaths in the $1,000 enlisted men,
while in 1912, after vaccination has been
made compulsory, there were but twenty-
seven cases, with but 4 deaths in the
$1,000 enlisted men. Most of these cases
occurred in men infected before enlist
