"Is a disease of 1 the mucous membrane of the eyelid; con taglous. chronic In its course and dififlcu.lt to cure. Tb chief danger Is the blindness it is so ant to produce. The disease Is in- nver a wide: area of Europe.

So far in this country there are but few places in which the disease may he saia to De in- demlc namely, certain restricted areas In Southern Illinois, in the mountains or iven-1 tucky and Tennessee and in the mountains near the Ktate line in esi Virginia Maryland. Excluding these places, the ma- Jorlty of cases of trachoma in this country have been Imported. I "Prior to 1897 trachoma was not cert 1-1 fled under the Immigration law as a dan- gerous contagious disease. Owing, how- ever, to the great increase of trachoma among tne Bcnooicnuaren oi tw Boston and Philadelphia and the represen-1 tatlons made by the American Ophthomo- logical Society to the Public ueaitn. ana Marine Hospital Service the disease was placed on the list of dangerous contagious diseases excludable by law.

Causes Blindness In Europe. "Inasmuch as trachoma causes in many sections of Europe quite 60 per cent, of all blindness observed in eye clinics, lt is high Iv essential to prevent a disease which is. capable of being spread along the lines of public communication so easily as is tra choma from obtaining any extensive root hold in our large centers of population Apparently the enforcement of the Imml gratlon law in respect to trachoma has effected a notable decrease In the number of cases treated for that disease. In the congested East Side of New York the disease is still prevalent to a considerable extent, "In Baltimore the disease is not extreme ly common. If we may Judge from the pro portion it bears relatively to other diseases of the eye treated in the clinics in mis city.

In Boston, according to the latest reports, large rooms which were previously devoted to the treatment of this disease in eye clinics have been closed for lack of pa tlents 'There can hardly be any question as to the contagiousness of the disease. Condi- tlons prevailing on shipboard and in schools virulent form tnrougnout tne enure uiew, A. i rendering them helpless through blindness, and institutions seem to oe very ittrurautc to its spread. Instances have been known in Balling Bhlps where the disease, Intro- duced at the port of departure, spread in Authorizing- the Fire Board to purchase ground in the vicinity of lieColloh- and Biddle streets for erection of a trackhonse.

BRIDGES OF THE 30ULEYARD Should Be Of The Width Of Avenue Cronlog Them- Any Other Plan Would Be A Serious Mistake Mesrt. Editors: It will be gratifying to the citizens of Baltimore to learn that Mr. Fendall, the City Engineer, la engaged In the preparation of plana to pass tbe new boulevard over Stony run on an architecturally impressive bridge.

It Is to be considered in connection with the construction of all the bridges for tbe boulevard that the latter is to constitute the grand driveway of this eity, connecting the valleys of Gwynn'a falls, Jonea falls, Stony run and the territory to the east with that of the west. The boulevard will thus connect tbe new park along Gwysn's falls with Druid Hill Park, Homewood Park, to be beautified by the buildings of tbe Johns Hopkins Uni versity, and Clifton Park. Along Its entire route there will be sure be buildings worthy of guch surroundings. It la tharefpre of the greatest importance that the bridges of the boulevard should be of tha full width of the avenue crossing them. Anv less wfdth would impair the Integrity of the entire scheme and impart an appearance of littleness and meanness to the bridges, spoiling the dignity of the whole construction.

The 'city should follow in tbe construction of Its bridge over Stony run tbe example and precedent ot us own construction oi me North avenue bridge over the valley of Jones falls. The expense of a xuu wiatn and architecturally attractive bridge justifies Itself, while a bridge of less width and attractiveness would be a sheer waste of money. Bod.EVa.aD.
