VACCINATION.
A Talk With a Popular Drug
Clerk About It.
How the Ladies Are Vaccinated, and
Where—A Reporter's Double Dose
- No Cause for Alarm, Etc.
The small-pox scare has seized upon a
large number of our people, particularly
so with the ladies, who seem to be much
more timid and afraid of this disease than
tbe men, probably on account of Ute
danger to their beauty, which is more or
less involved. For tbe past two days,
and particularly Saturday, this feeling
has been intens tied nnd was locally de
monstrated by tbe large numbers who
visited our principal drug stores to be
vaccinated. Said one of the drug clerks
to a Light reporter yesterday :
"There are more people applying to us
for vaccination this year than ever be
fore, not even in the tbe last
epidemic of three years ago. Y esterday
(Saturday) tbe doctors nnd others
(clerks) at this drug store vaccinated Go
persons and could have vaccinated 100
more had we had the time and the vac
cine.”
"Are the majority of those applying
women or men?" asked the reporter.
"Women, mostly, and a great many
children, little girls and boys, and some
men.”
Reporter—“ How do they stand it as a
rule? How do they act under the oper
ation?”
Clerk—" Under tbe operation they gen
erally act all right, at least tbe men do,
though we vaccinate some great big
men who squirm and flinch like they
were having a leg taken off. It is not
affectation,nut mere fright. One strong
hearty fellow applied yesterday, and
when the vaccination was accomplished
he was very pale and so weak lie could
not stand on tbe floor, but sat down for
a few moments. The idea is prevalent
that ladies are timid and easily fright
ened. My experience lias proven the
contrary. After the flesh is bared for
tbe operation they undergo it with the
greatest fortitude, and with none of that
flinching that one would expect from a
lady. It is prior to the operation that
all this takes place, and sometimes it is
very amusing.”
R. —"Do they always bare their arms
for vaccination?”
C.—“ Bless you, no, and here I'll
tell you something" said the clerk, in a
lower tone and very confidentially lean
ing bis head closer to the reporter, "we
have ladies come here who wish to be
vaccinated, but do not wish the beauty
of their white and spotless arms to be
marred. They always ask for Dr. B.
and are vaccinated upon their legs by
him, generally under their stockings.
They always trust biui. other doctors
also have and attend to these requests at
tbe houses of the ladies, as does Dr. 8.,
but some prefer coming to tbe Doctor’s
office. Ladies always display more or
less trepidation at baring their arms for
the scar. Many of them wear tight
sleeves which we have to rip open over
the spot to be vaccinated, because they
would rather spoil the sleeve than re
move their waist or jersey and disclose
their corsets.”
“Do not many negroes apply ?”
Clerk—No, not many. They do not
realize tbe advantages of vaccination
and are like the Mexicans, ignorant of
its value. Many Mexican mothers and
fathers bring their little children to be
vaccinated, but will not be vaccinated
themselves, saying they are too old and
don’t need it.
"Is tbe operation of vaccination very
painful?” asked the scribe.
Clerk.—Not at all. It is only a slight
pricking sensation, like sticking a pin
or scratching. The skin is first scraped
with tbe ivory point until the blood
flows slightly and then tbe virus is ap
plied to the raw surface and allowed to
dry before the sleeve is drawn over it.
That’s all. Does it geerally ‘take?’ Nine
cases out of ten. One prominent saloon
keeper boasted that his would not take.
Ask him about it now. Inquire of Ai
derman Connor. Ask almost any one
you see going along the street and care
fully keeping their left or right arms
from tbe jostling of the crowd. One of
the reporters was vaccinated yester
day. In about three days ask him about
it. I gave him a double quantity; vac
cinated him myself, in two places on his
arm. Poor devil. Like all the repor
ters, he knows everybody, and I feel
sorry when his friends shake hands with
him or slap him on the shoulder or arm
as I've seen them do. I wagered the
treats with bim that it would ‘take.’
"We get the vaccine virus from differ
ent farms, run solely to supply it. By
'farms’ I mean farms where the cows are
inoculated with tbe genuine small-pox
and tbe scab is carefully saved and pre
pared on points for shipment over tbe
country.
“Do you think the small pox will be a
great epidemic here?”
"No; there is no cause for alarm,
there are only a few cases and all are
isolated as soon as discovered, nnd offi
cers guard them. Like all Mexican
towns, there is more or less small pox
among us all the time. It seems to be
peculiarly fond of this nation, nnd they
do not seem to care for it at all. It
was introduced into Shiner’s corral this
winter by a Mexican family just from
Monclova, Mexico, and Into Beanville
by a family from La Prairita. One verv
erroneous idea held by tbe ignorant
Mexicans is that they will be nrrested
if a case of small pox is found in their
bouse. One family hid their infant and
would not produce is until threatened
with the police. Then they brought it
forth and it was found to 'be suffering
from small pox. The Mexican family,
Rios, who brought their 17-year old
daughter from La Prairita, concealed
the girl for 15 days before she was dis
covered by the authorities.'’
Sudden Death.
This morning as Mrs. Fritz Spansil,
widow of tha old gardener who commit
ted suicide Dy drowning near the Ar
senal some few months ago, went into
her son’s room, at her residence on Ma
con street, she found the boy was dead
although bis body was yet warm. Dr.
Weathers, living near by, was sent for,
and administered what remedies he
could, but to no purpose, tbe boy was
beyond recovery. Mrs. Spansil states
that her son, she thou got, yesterday
was suffering from measles and she gave
him some remedies, and did not think
the case was at all serious. There will
be an inquest this afternoon.

SUICIDE BY POISON,
Melancholy Death of a Respected Young
Mexican Last Night.
A young Mexican named Pablo Flores,
ageu 28 years, committed suicide last
night at 9 o'clock by taking an overdose
of poison. He was ‘he owner of a cart,
and had been working for the city. For
some rime past he has been troubled with
domestic irregularities in his household,
and it is said his wife and he were not on
the best of terms with one another. A
few days ago his only child died from
pneumonia, and he was deeply grieved
at his loss. He was seen yesterday af
ternoon at inselinann's cock-pit looking
at the cock lights and was also seen
later in the evening. He was sober and
had not been drinking. He came
home last night about 9 o'clock to his
house south of International and Great
Northern Railway depot, and west of
the Alazan, knocked on the door, and
ills wife opened it. He staggered across
tbe threshold, threw his arms about her
neck and said,“l’ll only have a few more
minutes to stay with you," and saying
this be tried to band her a small vial,
but which dropped from his hand. His
wife caught the vial, read the word,
“poison” on the label, and as ber
husband sank to the floor she
procured a dose of hog's lard and forced
him to swallow it, and then she sent for
Dr. Amos Graves. Flores vomited be
tween bis severe convulsions, but this
did not relieve him and he died ere Dr.
Graves could arrive. An inquest on the
remains was summoned and adjourned
to Justice Crawford’s office to 3 o’clock
this afternoon for further testimony.
How"it Happened.
He bad bis nose decorated with blood
where the pavement had playfully
abrased it, and he walked to tbe Recor
der in a graceful parabolic curve. “Y'ou
are charged with being drunk Mr. Craw
ford," suggested the City Attorney.
The gentleman addressed, by a supreme
effort, tried to assume a preternaturally
sober look and said: “No. sir, it cannot
be, it is only an hour ago since I was
arrested, and I am sober now as any
man in court. Your honor, can you see
anything about my person different to
any one else. 1 was in front of tbe
“'lwo Brothers” and this man came
along and thought he would make an
arrest. Nobody wanted him to make it,
but he thought it would give bim noto
riety. I ! “$7, ejaculated the Recor
der.” “Say, hold on! I—.” “sit down’,
ordered the City Marshal." Crawford
sat.

and was hung by the neck for a few
seconds.

Snow in the West.
K ansas City, January 22.—A1l through
trains west are again abandoned and
business is at a staadstill on tbe Santa
Fe, tbe Kansas Pacific and the Burling
ton and Missouri River roads, except for
local trains. The Missouri Pacific to
Omaha is also reported blockaded above
Atchison. The present experience is tbe
worst that the western roads have known
in many years. The Santa Fe road has
been closed five times during the month
and as often blockaded again, partly
from additional snows, but chiefly by
high winds, which fills up the cuts again
after the snow has been cleared. Tbe
mercury is falling here to-night.
MAXWELL ADMITS.
The Accused Murderer of Preller Report
ed to Have Made a Confession.
St. Lori-, Mo., January 23.—Dr. M. E.
Chartier, a French chemist who was for
years connected with the secret police
of Paris, but has resided in this cit y for
the past two years, lias all a > :g taken n
keen interest, both from u detective and
Seientlflc standpoint, in the Maxwell-
Preller murder ease. M. Chartier has
visited Maxwell several times and lias
exerted considerable influence overhini.
A few nights ago the doctor lectured be
fore the alumni of the St. Louis College
of Pharmacy, nnd inadvertently let the
fact escape bim that he had obtained a
confession from Maxwell. Tbe doctor
detailed the interview in which he ob
tained the confession ns follows : Satur
day last, aceomprnied by C. A. Meyers,
of 915 Olive street. 1 visited Maxwell.
As we entered he was reclining upon
his bed. nervously puffing at a cigarette.
‘How do you do. Doc?' I said. As I
spoke he sprang up and walked toward
us. He was pale and looked frightened.
‘What do you want.'' abruptly. ‘Y’ou
know ine, then, this time?' 'Yes; what
do you want?’ ‘I wantto talk to yon."
‘lndeed 1 I bought you had brought me a
bottle of cognac.’ 1 laughed, and Max
well's hauteur disappeared. ‘Ob. well.'
he said, ‘I am willing to talk to you.' I
asked him if he bad seen the hanging —
referring to tbe execution of Wilson the
day previous. ‘I saw it from my win
dow,’ lie replied. ‘And you saw him
struggling on the gallows and reaching
uj> his hands when the rope caught?’ ‘I
sawalt that.’ was his answer. 'Didn't
it make you think?’ ‘1 had nothing
to think about; I mn an innocent
man.’ 1 then,” said Dr. Chartier,
"looked him fair in the eye. nnd
jiointing my linger at him, said:
•Maxwell, you know that I have
sounded you, and that I can prove that
you are guilty. You killed Preller. and
you can't deny it.’ Ho looked terribly
frightened, and as though lie were going
to faint. Of course my declaration that
I could prove his guilt was a blurt'. I ap
proached him nearer, and. laying my
hand on his shoulder, said, familiarly :
•I have no feeling of enmity against you.
Maxwell, and now that I have studied
the case, I am satisfied they can't hang
you. I understand tbe case now; you
were both drunk that night, and in mis
take you gave Preller too big a dose of
chloroform; you couldn't help it. but
you killed him anyhow, didn't yon?'
'Yes, he said slowly, while his hands
trembled, and his face grew even
whiter. ‘Yes, 1 killed him.’ That set
tled it; Ue could talk no more ;he could
give no details, and after telling him 1
would see his lawyer and see what .1
could do for him, 1 went away.” Dr.
Chartier inclines to the .belief that I’rel
ler's death was a murder by imprudence.
A Wisconsin Congressman and his Wife.
Washington, January 23.—There is a
young couple in Congress, who are, to
say tbe least, an innovation. The state
ment that they are in Congress is made,
because at home their law partnership
is defined on the shingle over their door
as La Follette &La Follette. Represen
tative La Follette, of the Third Wiscon
sin District, is the youngest member of
the House, under 30, and a Republican.
Mrs. LaFollette looks 20, but may be 25.
Both were graduated at the State Uni
versity at Madison, and a year after
they were married. They are in per
sonal appearance a youthful pair and of
small stature. Mr. I.a Follette would
be noticed for his rather large head,
pale complexion, heavy auburn hair,
and tbe “search-you-through” expres
sion of his brown eyes. Jars. La Fol
lette would be taken anywhere for a
pretty girl, rosy and blonde, whose dim
ples and smiles suggest a happy, light
hearted character, but us little of the
woman lawyer as it is possible to im
agine. But she is tbe other member of
the law firm at Madison, her husband's
partner, and was admitted to tbe bar at
tbe same time. She is here taking a
course of law at tbe Columbia college,
entering about the same time that her
husband was sworn in as a member of
tbe House. Representative La Follette
brings with bim a reputation for oratory,
and his friends say in this he possesses
no ordinary gifts. Be that as it mny,
the firm of La Follette & La Follete bids
fair to interest official circles.
Fatal Snow Slides.
Aspen, Colo., January 23.—The pre
dictions of heavy mortality in the sur
rounding country, as a result of the
storms and snow slides, ars being veri
fied. Yesterday a portion of a rescuing
party returned to Aspen from Maroon
Pass, bringing additional information of
the terrible disaster of Tuesday, prev
iously reported. But one of the four
men has been rescued so far. Tbe party
also brought information regarding an
other slide, which presumably occurred
at about the same time as the first one,
in which eight men were canght, three
being killed. The bodies have been
found. As tbe party left, tbe storm was
raging fiercely and slides were roaring
and thundering down the mountain
sides in all directions. More deaths will
surely be recorded when the remainder
of the rescuing party arrive. Fifteen
men between Aspen and the buttes are
yet unaccounted for, and the gravest
apprehensions are entertained for them.
General Crook's Story.
AutcquKitquK, N. M., January 23.—
Brigadier-General Crook, commanding
the department of Arizona, and Colonel
L. P. Bradley, commanding the District
of New Mexico, met here to-day to make
the necessary arrangements caused by
the recent change in the District of New
Mexico from the North Department of
Missouri to the Department of Arizona.
General Crook said tbe hostile Apaches
at last have been driven out of tbe De
partment and taken refuge in the Sierra
Mad re mountains of Chihuahua and So
nora, Old Mexico, where they were
being pursued by the troops of both Re
publics.
The Strike Situation.
New York, January 23.—Sixty Cuban
cigar makers, employed in the factories
of S. Jacoby and Ottenburg Bros., quit
work to-day and decided to remain out
until tbe lockout was declared at an end.
They have no grievances against the
Manufacturers' Association except their
action in closing the factories against
the union men. The strippers and
bunchers employed by John W. Love
returned to work this morning, and the
cigar makers and packers, number in all
510, will resume work Mondsy. This
leaves 14 manufacturers holding out
against their employees. Otherwise tbe
situation remains unchanged.
