4 IT WILL CARRY fl HALF MILE Surgeon General Wyman Writes the Board of Health About Smallpox. ONU ONE CASE ON RECORD Where’he Disease Has Been Known to Carry More Than Four Thousand Feet. Di? report that smallpox would carry a full mile has gone out, and han created no little une,i-<i<H •«, especially among those v. no )iv< «ithin a comparatively short dis t ire -of streets where cases have been re ported. The following letter from Dr. Walter Wyman, Supervising Surgeon General of ‘the Marine Hospital Service, will set the question at rest, as Surgeon General Wy man may be considered the highest au thority In the United States. Surgeon General Wyman's letter to the Board of Health is as follows: //Jlj X /\ •’2/ 1 KI I I / 11/ °\\ \ \ / oj \ FRENCH WALKING COSTUME FROM HARPER’S BAZAR The cloth gowns for the spring, judging from the 'models shown so far, are to be quite smart and in many respects different from those worn during the winter. An extremely odd gown is one made of a red cloth. The skirt is sheath-like in its tit over the hips, but has a decided flare around the foot. It is trimmed with bands of braid and is very noticeable in the way in which it opens in the front instead of the back. It is fastened with three large buttons at one side of the front breadth. This style of skirt is one that will be used for spring gowns, and the cut paper pat tern of it, as well as the rest of the costume issued by Harper’s Bazar, will be use ful in preparing the spring wardrobe. The waist is draped over at one side in soft folds and fastened with three buttons quite far down. It opens at the throat to show a high vest and collar of white cloth, and has cape pieces which extends over the shoulders down half way over the sleeves and across the back. The sleeves are tlght-fiting and have no trimming. With this gown is worn a black felt hat trimmed with black plumes, fastened with a buckle in front, and, it is said, the same style is to be copied in straw. “In reply to your letter of the 25th ulti mo. requesting information as to the dis tance which should intervene between a smallpox hospital and residences. I have to say that in my opinion half a mile is ample. The only redded instance where smallpox has been carried more than four thousand feet occurred at Sheffield, Eng land, in the years 18S7-8. While it appears upon first inspection that smallpox could be carried this distance through the me dium of the air, it Is not clearly shown that such is the case, on account of the many cases of smallpox which occur around the hospital and appear to have spread from its foci. 'The reception hospital of the New York Hoard of Health is located at the toot of East Sixteenth street, and within about twelve feet of the sidewalk. .This hospital has b<en in operation over fifteen years, and reliable information has been given to the tureau that there has never been a case of smallpox contracted by persons rass'ng along the street by this hospital. “Respectfully yours, . Walter Wyman, Supervising Surgeon General Marine Hos pital Service. Five new cases were reported to the Board of Health this morning and an other ease has been reported to the coun ty commissioners, making six cases in all. The new cases reported arc on Spring street between Oemulgee street and the new bridge. They were contracted by contact with the case of the negro Card, the sanitary cart driver, who was sent to the pest house at the park about a week ago. All the new cases have been moved to the pest house and the • premises have •been thoroughly fumigated. It Has Been, -y But is Not v erv Dry.

Gcqy'B Magazine for this month has a picture of Mr. Elliston Van Hoose and the following sketch Os him: "A young singtr who ia likely to be heard abroad before long, and whose career is nothing short of meteoric, is Mr. Elli son Van Hoose, at present one of the lead ing tenors of the Damrosch-Eilis Grand Opera Company. His instantaneous prom inence Is all the stronger in view of the fact that he has never studied in Europe. It leads one to hope that the day may come when musical audiences will actually feel the sentiment called patriotism. “Mr. Van Hoose was born 28 years ago in Murfreesboro, Tenn. He was considered a remarkable boy alto, and in 1894 came to New York. He studied with Mr. Perry Avellrr and Mr. Orton Bradley, and h.s Srst public work was as a soloist in various New York church chairs. He sang recent ly In New York at the Oratorio society’s production of "The Messiah,” and has ap peared at a few concerts besides his oper ;tic pet iormair.xs. His voice is ci un.voxi beauty, but will doubtless equalize under usage. Its equality reminds one of Jean de Reszkc’s in the humanizing veil of the tones.” Mr. Van Hoose is a brother of Mrs. Hope f’olhill and Mrs. Glover, of this city, and also a brother of Professor Van Hoose, of Gainesville. * * • Mrs, J. F. Ha. o . • ntertained twelve ladies at six handed euchre this morning complimentary to Mrs. H. C. Hanson.

SEATS ARE SEILING RAPIDLY And the Prospects Are That the Au dience Will Be a Credit to Macon’s Musical Taste. Every lover of music is interested in the coming of the Boston Ideals. It is welcome news to learn there is no advance in the prices. A great many peo ple are glad to know that they can get seats in the balcony for 50 cents. It has been the desire of ’the Lyceum Course management to give to Macon a class of entertainments that would be both ele vating and enjoyable. How they have suc ceeded the public knows. The Lyceum Course winds up the season with the Bos ton Ideals and it is doubtless the best musical organization of the kind in this country. The sale of seats commenced this morn ing and notwithstanding the very bad weather the sale has been quite good anti indications are that a crowded house will gree the musicians. The Boston Ideals have won a well de served reputation throughout the country. They have played and sung to the best audiences that the most musical cities of the world afford, and in every instance have won the loud plaudits of both the press and the people. This company is composed of artists who have won natural reputations as per formers upon stringed instruments, and the singing is of the highest order. Lovers of the beautiful harmonies of the mando lin and guitar will be delighted with .the playing of this superb organization. A MUSICAL TREAT At the Academy of Music on Next Thursday Night. Cn Thursday night .the Karger Concert Company will appear at the Academy for the benefit of the Temple Guild. This company is one of the leading organiza tions of its kind, and has with it the emi nent young violin virtuoso, Mr. Max Kar ger, Jeannette McClanahan, one of the foremonst American sopranos; Miss Marie Mildred Marsh, celebrated American pian ist, and Mr. S. P. Veron, basso cantanta. Mr. Veron for a number of years was a resident of this city, and is related to the families of Messis. Fifled, Gillespie -and Hecht. He made his first apearance four years ago at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, when he achieved great suc cess by his perfect vocalization and pow erful voice.
