Smallpox Hospital, ae Smallpox hospital is again occupied, ive members of the Williams family hav- ing moved there last night from their home, 006 EastCapitol street. This was done at the earnest solicitation of Health Officer Wood- ward, who was extremely anxious to get the patients from the East Capitol street house for the sole purpose of benefiting the public, although he realizes that the move will prove beneficial to the patients. When the ambulance called at the Wil- liams residence last night a large crowd of curious persons soon gathered in the street ana it a with considerable difficulty that @ crowd was kept at a respectabl - tance from the infected persons. = Mrs. Williams and a colored nurse went with the-four patients, two of whom ere practically well. Dr. Elliott will remain at the hospital and look after the patients. Speaking of the case this morning Health Officer Woodward said he was having the Eest Capitol street house thoroughly fu- migeted and by the time the family moves back he thinks the germs of the disease will have disappeared. ‘This case, Dr. Woodward thinks, fur- nishes a strong argument in favor of re- moving patients to the hospital and not attempting to isolate them in private houses. The little child who was last to take the disease was infected long after the isolation of the sick ones and long after the period of incubation from the supposed last exposure. " At the hospital he said the convalescents will have the advantage of going out and getting some fresh air, a privilege which they could not have enjoyed in the more thickly populated parts of the city. The sick child is getting along well, although she has a pronounced case of varloloid. i Inaugural Address. The bureau of the American republics has received in full the inaugural address of President Prudente de Moraes, delivered November 15. The new president is the first to be elected to that high office by the voice of the people of Brazil, his two pre- decessors, Fonseca and Peixoto, having been chosen by the vote of the national convention. The address reviews the dis- sensions and strife through which the 1e- putlic has passed since its inception, No- vember 15, 1889, and closes with a patriozic appeal to the loyalty and confidence of his ccuntrymen, JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT IS BOTH A PALLIA- tive and curative im all lung complaints, bron- ehitis, &e.
