REPUBLICAN EDITOR SUFFERING WTH FACE POISONING

L. H. Hamilton, editor of the Republican, is confined to his home on N. Van Rensselaer street, suffering with face poisoning which he contracted several days ago. His physicians state that his case resembles erysipelas. His condition, while not serious at this time, is such that he will be taken to the hospital as soon as a room can be secured for him. It is reported that there are one or two other cases similar to Mr. Hamilton’s in the city at the present time, but the cause of the malady has not been determined.
