WILL TAKE STEPS
 FOR PREVENTION OF
 SPREAD OF DISEASE
Small Pox Will Be Battled by City and County Physicians by the
 FumigatiOn Orders and Free
 Vaccination To All Applying

Immediate steps for the prevention of the further spread or contagion Of the small amount of small pox which has SO far been found in Bisbee will be taken by the city and county au- tnorities In a cooperative meeting of Drs Ralph Herendeen city physi- elan, and C. H. Hunt, county physi- elan, held yesterday, this move was decided on. It was occasioned by tho finding Of one more case of small poX in the city.
 This case of the disease was located on o. K street The victim was a carpenter and the case a light one. TEe patient was removed to the pest house where he will be isolated.
 The chief danger of the epidemic at the present time is in the fact that all three cases SO far reported have been of the same character They have all been extremely light, pemitt- ing the patients Co run at large prior Co actual illness and in this way suf- fering danger of spread The source of the infection is also unknown and and the physicians have SO far been unable Co locate the origin of any one of the cases
 Tq insure immediate eradication of the disease and to take precautions against further spread of the disease the city and county health physicians have outlined campaign. They have notified all saloon men, an moving picture houses and all other places where people congregate that they will be expected to fumigate their places each morning. This move. they state, is safer and better than taking the chance of finally having to order all such places closed com pletely
 In addition the officers are vaccinat- ing an who apply free of charge. Free vaccination against the disease may be had at the city hall each evening from to 8 o'clock when one or the other of the physicians will be on hand. Appointments at other times during the day will be arranged for those who are unable to appear at the office during the hours reserved for the work
