SITE OF THE PEST H0USEJSDED1CATED Only Case of Smallpox in Richmond Found on Site of Proposed Hospital.

The site of the proposed pest house for Richmond was fittingly dedicated to its use this week when the first case of smallpox reported In this city for many months was found in a bouse on the identical property purchased by the city for the hospital for contagious diseases. The sardonic realism of the situation has appealed mightily to the health authorities who believe that fate surely indicated the correct location of the pest house. From what source the sole case of smallpox in Richmond, came is bailing the health officer. Dr. Davis. Interviews with the members- of the afflicted family have not thrown light on the question. The child which is suffering from the disease Is now able to be about, and the health authorities believe that there is no danger of an epidemic. The isolation of the house practically precludes a spread of smallpox, health officials say.

Blonds Getting Scaroer. Scientists are taking a gloomy view of the future of the blond. Not only are fair people becoming fewer, but il this Is not a paradox they are also be coming darker.
