OPENING SAFE SLOW WORK.
Burglars Carrienatlonlzed It With a
Vengeance.
STAMFORD, July il.~'l‘wo machin-
ists from the Yale & Towns works
have been trying since Monday morn-
ing to open the safe in St. John's Par-
lsli House. whose look was smashed
with an axe by burglars Sunday night.
They had iiot succeeded in opening it
this afternoon. They may do so be-
i'or night. The men are aiming to
open the safe without doing any more
damage than ls necessary.
in sorting out the papers which
were removed from a desk in the
Lloyd Library, and thrown upon the
floor, by the burglars, the vicar, Rev.
I. B. Werner, found yesterday. a slip
upon which were directions for open-
lug the safe. it was known to the
clergy that this was in the‘ desk.
Whether the burglars noticed it in
their search, presumably for money,
is not known, but it Is considered pro-
bublc that they overlooked it, and
made no use of the combination. if
they had used it, it is not likely that
they would have carried the paper up
stairs to the recur where it was found.
One supposition which; gained cur-
rency-last evening was that the bur-
:iars had' used the combination, re-
moved the valuable contents of the
safe, and then used the axe to Infllct
damage which madc- it difficult to
open the safe. In order that discmtcry
of the theft might be delayed. Upon
the face of it this theory is exceeding.
ly improbable. and it is likely that
when the safe Is opened its contents
will be found all right. Still, there is
just a shadow of possibility III the
supposition that. keeps the people of
St. John‘s uneasy while the work of
opening the safe is carried on.
The contents include parish records
and two silver communion 1»:or'1'iccsw
one of them used in the parish since
1742. and the other much more valu»
able intrinsically, though hardly less
prized by the church people. Knowl-
edge that the silver is sale would be,
a great relief to many.
No clue has been found to the hur-
zlars but there is nothing to alter the
opinion formed from an inspection of
their work that they were amateur
oracksmen, and bungling ones at that.

EPIDEMIC IS FEARED.
Health Authorities Alarmed at Outlook
for Fall.
Tire health authorities of the state
are evidently alarmed over the pros.
poets of a still further spread of
smallpox next fall. A conference of
the state board of health, and the
county health ofliccrs will be held in
this city July 25. when the matter will
be thoroughly discussed. '
I it is probable that an order will be
issued throughout the state through
the medium of the town health officers
making the vaccination of all children
entering school next September com-
pulsory. Ne child who has not been
vaccinated will be permitted to enter
any of’ tlie'scliools of the state unless
a certificate is p seated from a pity-
sician assigning the . good reason
whv the order has not been complied
with.
The health authorities have been
considering the matter for some time
and believe there is grave danger that
this state may be visited next fall by
the most serious epidemic of smallpox
erer known. The large number of
cases reported around the state In the
spring and early summer threaten to
spread after months of warm weather.
The health authorities do'not hope
that vaccination will remove all possi-
ble danger but they think it will great~
mly lesson the number of cases. In the
cities of the state at the present time
the law concerning vaccination of
school children is rigidly enforced and,
the order {which will probably be
adopted at the conference in new Ha.
ven. July 25. will apply to the smatter‘
towns. ,
