diphtheria in the same enthusiastic

Dr. Jenkins, president of the local board of health, told Q, V. that a wrong impressiou prevails among our people as to the death rate among those afflicted with this disease. He says that on the average the death rate is only about ten or eleven per cent, of those reported. By this he means to say that death among those who are reported by the number of cards sent out is only ten or eleven per cent., as in many cases one card is reported where there are several cases in the house. Where a card is put up, no matter how many cases are in

hojige, the interests of the Public are protected, and where one death may occur in the.house there may be a number of those afflicted who escape this fate. He thinks that if the total number of individual cases were reported the death rate would probably be cut down to six or seven per qpnt.

Scarlet fever and measles are far more prevalent just now than diphtheria, but not of a malignant nature, as a rule. No matter what may be said of the care that physicians take to keep such contagious diseases from spreading, there is no question but that they do not always take the precautions that the law requires in such cases. Q. V. heard of a case this week where a pbysioian failed to report a case of measles in a south side family, and the sign was not put up for several days after the physician knew positively that he had a patient that was so afflicted. He was not a quack, either, or a fly-by-night, but one of the best known and most reputable doctois in the city. He ought to be made an example of, and be com pel led to pay the peualty the law provides for its violation.

The cold weather of the past few weeks has made a remarkable showing in the gas bills of those who use gas for heating purposes. Q. V. went into a Main street store one day t,hi* week and found the proprietor in a highly indignant frame of inind over his ga* bill th^thad been presented for the month of Jfanu ary. In November his g« bill was eight' dollars, in December it wasj four teen dollars, and although he protested against this be paid it without much of a kick. But his January bill fairly paralyzed him. Although he used the same number of stoves in that month that he did in November and Decembar, them lighted at the same time of

had them lighted at tue same time ot

of hours, his bill came in for twentythree dollars. All this was on top of an examination of his meter and the stoves, as a result of the kick he made on his December bill's increase over the month preceding. The examination was made, too, by the officers of the gas company, who said that everything was all right.

The Daily Letter, the prohibition organ of this city, wants to bet "ten to one" that the legislature will be afraid to paw the Nicholson temperance law now he fore it. It has heretofore been under stood that betting was one of the evils the reformers wanted to drive out of this community, but here is the daily organ offering to bet, at such odds of ten to one, too.

A number of bad sanctioned and approved during the members of the medical profession have former sheriffs incumbency. It is well purchased the remedy for their patients enough in many eases to call things by and use it when requested to do so, but their right name, and the "dear people" jey follow the advioe of the producers, didn't figure as muoh in the calculations which is that under no circumstances of the commissioners as they would are the precautions and treatment of the have them believe. profession to be relaxed during the use remedy. The anti-toxine is a of the reddish-looking liquid, that comes in one-ounce vials, aod is Injected into the patient in the flank, the entire ounce being the quantity for one treatment. The cost of an ounce to the physician is in the neighborhood of three dollars and a half, and the expense to the patient includes ordinarily the oost of the phy sioian's visit added to that of the anti-toxine. The auti toxine is, strictly speaking, the blood of a horse that has been treated in the manner laid down in the rules of the discoverer of the remedy. The point that our home physicians make in the use of the stuff is that it is simply the production of a theory and that its use is the carrying out of a theory, which cannot be saoo tioned until its u-e has demonstrated its value. They say that when a drug is offered to the medical profession it is never thoroughly sanctioned until three or four years' use has demonstrated that it is all that is claimed for it. The use of the anti-toxine would perhaps be more general among home physicians were it not for the faot that about the time it was introduced the mortality from diphtheria was greatly reduced.

C'ouuoilmen Haley and Graham, of the Second ward, are determined to have that big belt sewer, which is greatly ueeded, and no place as badly as in the southeastern part of the city. At the special counoil meeting last night a resolution was adopted requiring the city attorney and a special oommittee to visit the legislature and secure the enactment of a law by which oltles of from 80,000 to 35,000 can make a general assessment for the purpose of building sewers. The belt sewer is a crying neoessity here, its construction would benefit the entire city rather than any particular locality, and the entire oity should pay tor it.

MEN WHO ARK 1ALKED ABOU1.

Howell E. Jackson, the Tennessee Democrat, who was appointed to the Supreme bench by President Harrison,-is very near his end. He has been ill for more than two years with kidney trpuble, and his case has been considered hopeless since last July. He ha3 not taken his seat upon the bench during the present term.

Frank G. Carpenter, the well-known-newspaper correspondent, is lecturing on China and Japan. Mr. Carpenter traveled 30,000 miles through those countries with a camera upon his back gathering materials for these lectures, jjnd in the cgurse of his-.-Xgnrpgys has interviewed more famous persons anlff potentates than any reporter that ever sharpened a pencil.

The only exercise President Cleveland gets is an hour's rubbing by a masseur, who comes to the White House at 7:30 o'clock every morning. He received similar treatment last summer before he went to Gray Gables, but it was not re sumed this winter until he came down with the gout. Then by the advice of Dr. O'Reilly, the "professor" was sent for again and reduced the president's weight forty-two pounds within three weeks.

Bourke Cockrau has already deserted politics, and is now making his arrange ments to sail for Europe with his wife, to be absent a year or more When he went to congress three years ago it was expected that his service would be continuous, and that he would graduate in to the senate in a f9W. yeats. At least that was bis ambition, but his quarrel with "Boas" Croker of lamm\any prevented his renomination and ended his political career. Cockran is a young m«n still, being only 40, and b:s ad mirera say that he will return to public life and be famous long after Croker is forgotten, but it is nevertheless a fact that be has failed to justify the brilliant career that, was promised for him in congress, He has won a reputation for eloquence and has made a picturesque effect in debate, but he is the author of no legislation, and has been practically useless in the committee-rooms, where the foundations of successful, careers in congress are always laid.
