Many contradictory reports have come in from the Township of Stephen as to the presence of smallpox in and around the village of Dashwood and south to Khiva. After many enquir- ies and after sifting the matter as well as possible the truth seems to he that there are several cases in the township and that one young man, Herman Neeb, aged 17 years, died of the disease on Monday night and was buried on Tuesday morning. The young tuan was ill for several days, but feeling Netter he went out and caught a cold with the result that he was again taken and death quickly followed. 4 While there are,undoubtedly, many cases of illness in the township that are not smallpox still the general opin- ion of the doctors seems to be that several cases of the real amallpox ex- ist. The Provincial health officer was in cousultation with the township health officers on Tuesday and string- ent tneasures have been taken to pre- Q vent the spread of the disease. It is the duty of all persons to do what they can to stamp out the disease as quickly as possible. One way is to be vaccinated and thus to avoid danger by etc.:Mentally corning in contact with those who may have been expos- ed to the disease.
