MORE SMALLPOX
IN MARTINS FERRY
TWO CASES DISCOVERED ON JET
FERSoN STREET BIZ AUTHoR1-
TIES LAST NIGHT
Every Precauton VIII Be Taken to
Guard Against the Spread Of
the Dise1se-Other
Ferry News.

Smallpox has again been discovered
In Martins Ferry. The victims OF the
nalady arc Mrs. Joseph L. Farmer and
her daughter. Mary, who reside at 90S
Jefferson street.
The attention of Health Officer James
Freeman was called to these two cases
about o'clock last night. After inves-
tgation he had the house quarantincd
and guards placed about the building
Several homes adjacent to the Farmer
resident were thoroughly furnigated.
These cases which come in the wake
OF the epidemic of this dread disease
which invaded the city two months ago
are a great surprise TO the authorities
q; they had believed every prccaut ton
known had been taken to guard against
further killnGSS a. this kind.
1t Is stated that Miss Farmer has but
recently returned from Washing ton
Pa. and many OF her friends believe
that she may have contracted the dis
ease in that place.
After the authorities had done every
thing last night to prevent against a
spread Of the affliction they had not
decided what other measures they
would take. Two months ago when
there were two cases of smallpox in the
city all the schools and moving picture
houses were ordered closed.
