SUGGESTION THAT
SHOULD BE NEEDED.

Considerable apprehension exists il.
Baltimore over the discovery of a
number of cases of smallpox in that
city, and the health authorities are
doing everything possible to check
the spread Of the disease.
There ARK, always sporadic cases
of this loathsome disease in large
cities, and occasionally cases are re-
ported in Alexandria. The health
department has at present three cases
in widely separted parts of the city,
with which to contend, but these are
enough to cause anxiety to certain
persons who live in dread of this
malady.
Smallpox to an alarming extent
prevailed in Alexandria during the
four years civil war. 1t rageo
mostly among soldiers ana negroes,
and the cause was not difficult to I'M
derstand. The former crowded into
cheap and often dirty concert halls
and circuses, while "contrabands," as
they were called, swarmed in small
quarters provided for them by the
government.
1t was no uncommon sight to see
soldiers with scabs on thei" faces IL
badly ventilated concert halls or in
stationary circuses, where sanitary
conditions were unknown.
There are reasons why eXtraordi
nary measures should be taken
against smallpox in Alexandria as
we'll as in Baltimore, and immediate
attention should be given to places
where miscellaneous crowds gather.
as there Is reason to believe that some
inmates of infected houses manage to
escape quarantine and mingle with
other people.
During the winter of lS9S-lS9e
there was an epidemic of smallpox
in Alexandria, several hundred cases
in one form or another being report
ed. Private watchmen were employ
ed at that time for the purpose OF en-
forcing quarantine on houses IN which
cases existed.
What has happened before is liable
to happen again and too much care
cannot be taken to prevent the repetl-
ton of scenes Of by-gone years.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1914-02-12
tons says:

With all due Difference to the pro-
fessor his prediction must be pro-
nounced rash. Accepting his theory
that Pennsylvania was responsible
for shaking up Canada and New York,
there is really every reason ito ex-
pect an early repetition of the dis
turbances." We venture to prophesy
that the next severe shock will come
in May and from that time on there
will be spasmo;ic upheavals, culmln-
ating in a terrible cataclysm early In
November. The effects of this will
be widespread and are likely to be felt
even through 1915 anI2 1916. Much
valuable machinery will be ruined and
put out of business.
Assuring as correct the Professors
theory of the Pennsylvania origin of
the earthquake we would like to
inquire if he has given full weight to
the blowing up of Sage of Schwenk-
vile on Monday evening. The I'm
mediate cause of this was one Benja-
min Franklin, gentleman of a sci
entific turn of mind, who, if alive.
would be profoundly interesting in
noting what a commotion his versa
tile character is still capable of pro-
ducing among a certain class. The
bursts of anger provoked by his ge-
MUS are still earth shaking, and It
seems not unlikely that the shock
thus given startled the internal agi-
tation that produced the seismic DIS
turbance of Tuesday

OFFICER KILLS ASSAILANT
Danville Policeman Shoots Negro
Who Slabs Him in Resisting
Arrest.

Danville, Va. Feb. 12-Persey Eos
ter a negro was shot and killed by
Police Officers W. C. Hall here Tues
day night at 10 o'clock. Hall is in
the hospital with the muscle of his
lett arm severed, and a deep stab
wound over the left breast. His con-
dition, the physicians attending him
say, is precarious.
Foster sought admission to a col
ored moving picture show on Patton
street, when a police officer whose
duty it is to see that good order pre-
walls, refused the negro admittance
Foster, with two other demonstrated
an the officer seeing that the man was
drunk, called to Officer Hall nearby
and asked him to take the negro to
jail. Just as Hall seized Foster nc
drew an open knife from his side
pocket, and made two vicious slashes
at the officer. Hall reelcd against
the wall of the lobby to the theatre,
ard, drawing his Colt, fired two shots
at the negro standing a eew feet away
from him.
The negro piled up over a box, and
died in half an hour. Hall was
hurried to the hospital. He lost
much blood before he received asslS-
tance. Foster had the reputation OF
being bad negro. He was to ap-
pear in court yesterday. on charge
OF gambling. He was always IN

Likely That Only Those Killed II
Their Staterooms will be Found.

Norfolk, Feb. 12-Nearly two weeks
Lave e!apsed since the Old Dominion
line Monroe sank at seal following
collision off Hog Island with the Mer-
chants and Miners liner Nantucket
but nonc of the bodies of the Al per-
sons who lost their lives as a result
of the disaster has been found.
The Old Dominion Steamship Com
pany has kept divers on the scene con-
tinuous,y since the accident search
ing for bodies in the sunken wreck
The conclusion has been about reach
ed that only those who were killed
outright: by the impact were caught
in their staterooms and that the great
majority of those who persisted were
drowned after taking to the water
following the sinking of the Monroe
Tic bodies naturally sank. The IN
dertow has been very strong. %
strong that it has cut the sand on the
