The Kind You Nara Always Bought Bears the Signature of Small Pox In Stephen. ONE DEATH REPORTED ANDSEV- EItAL HOUSES QUARANTINED The report that several families in the Township of Stephen are infect- ed with smallpox has created con- siderable excitement during the past few days and there is a general rush for the :physicians' offices to get vaccinated. It is stated that entall- lox has boon prtts'aleut since Christ- mas, but owing to its mild forst has } been treated as chickenpox. Last week one of those who had the dis- ease attended n sale, and the rash on his face caused many of those rresesnt to snake n request that the health board of the. township :take action. Owing to Dr. McCue, the health officer of the township ,being ill, l)r. Orme of Centralia, was call- ed to see Merman Necbe, living near Shipka. and he pronounced his ill- ness nmalipox in a very bad .form and had the house placarded. As soon as Dr. McCue had r,ufficiently reoovered ltd visited Necbe end pro- nounced it a virulent type of small- pox. At his request the. township :board communicated with the Provincial Health Department. and I)r. hall, of Toronto, arrived here Monday night and imm(ediatcly went out to the in- fected district. He nlso pronounced the cases es smallpox and ordered a strict quarantine of all the houses where any persons are in with it. About twelve places :were placed under quarantine. A telephone message from Dr. Mc- Cue, of Crediton, the Medical Ilealth Officer of the Township, to us yea- terday. states that Herman Necbe, whose case was diagnosed by hint as smallpox and beyond recovery had died Monday night and was bur- ied Tuesday morning. This is .the only death reported so far from 'this dreaded disease, and no serious cases have developed since. Everyprecaution is being taken to prevent the spreading of the disease and it is well for every one who bas not been vaccinated recently to do so at once. Some of those 'who have the disease have. probably ,mingled with the public, not know- ing the nature of the illness and every oare should Ise taken. HOARD OF IIEALTIi.
