Smallpox Scare Dwindles With Little Cause for Alarm.

The scare concerning smallpox has about passed away and it is believed now that there will be no further spread. One of the Marlatt children which had been vaccinated and was later sick with a slight fever is now better and the vaccinated arm is “taking.” This indicates that there will be no smallpox. The two daughters of the editor are very much improved and there has been no eruption at all so far and may not be. Another of the little sons of Cal Cain is sick but has only a little fever. < It is believed by the physicians that the crisis for a general spread is about passed.
