BREAD DIPHTHERIA. It Is In Reality a Filth Dis- ease. EVEN WORSETH AN SMALLPOX It Can Be, and Might Easily Be Prevented. Coint Rtawnt for Clean Houses and Clan Yards Tha City Should Be Purlflad. During tba ton months beginning Aug.

It 1891, there were reported to the Chicago Health OCQca 3,706 of diphtheria and otJ6 deaths from the same cause. Such a record is a public disgrsoe, and would not hers be given except in the hope that the publication of the figures may help in stamping out the disease. Toe ignorance and apathy with which the )Uaw ia rcganim am nmirMora. wuw I 1 LI. mother who hod lost three children within a week, and when other were then lying upon their deathbeds, was told to stop uaing the water from her well snd to have tilled a ditch, into which she threw her slops, close to the kitchen door.

Her reply was "Nest week. I can not attend to it now. In another instance, in a neighboring State, the ground aloped from the front of the house to an open ditci in the street. Slops were thrown from the front door. Although there as an abundance of pure water in the city supply to be had for less than $5 a year fur tha entire house, and although the family was prosperous, as working people go, they had sunk a box a few feet from the ditch and there obtained their drinking water.

The number of deaths from diphtheria in that houss led to an official investigation and con damnation of the "spring" as they called it. The mother indignantly denied that the disease was caused by the water. It comes from Himmel." she reverently said. Too Much Apathy Regarding It. Contrast the apathy with which diphtheria is ragarded with tha dread of smallpox.

If it wns announced that twenty-tt ve ises of small pjx were to be found in the city, every man woman and child not recently vaccinated would hurry to have same vi rus put into hi arm. Business would be greatly injured, and all neighboring commonwealths would quar antiue against us- The sick would be most carefully isolated and unsfflicted families would try to get away from the scourge Diphtheria comes into the community and does its evil and little is done to check it During the month of October alone there were over 600 new cases, or a total of nearly 1,000 cases, with 124 deaths. Very many have more fear of scarlet fever than they have of diphtheria. During those same ten months there were 5.407 cases of scarlet fever, with deaths. The mortality then of diphtheria was Si per cent, while that scarlet fever was only 8 per cent.

Although there were three cases of scarlet fever to every two of diphtheria, there were two deaths from diphtheria to every death from scarlet fever. Remarked la History. There are found in the Talmud and in the writings of Hippocrates allusions to diph theria. A little later Aretseus gave a clear description of certain forms of the disease, lie opened the larnyx to relieve strangulation almost two thousand years ago. From that time forward the disease was the subject of tMmiAnt ntrovarav and lenirthv theses.

the fifth century a writer by the name ot recognised the fact that the disease was orimsrily local, and advised that the membranes be not forcibly removed. The act that he gave this advice is an indication that it was then customary to tnua remove cian has regarded that method of treatment as oriirinaUair with himself. In this country wa find the record of the death of four children in December, 1859, at Koxbury, Mass. Since that time it has spread over the entire country, and is at times very fa'nl. Diphtheria is emDhatically a filth.

disease. It develops from a germ or bacillus. The clinical history of cast show that this bacillus frequently develops outside the bodies of animals, in decaying vegetable matter. Having once got a good foothold on a human being others may contract me disease airecuy from the first case. Doss, cats, chickens, and doves have frequently been the means of spreading the disease.

'ot Always Defective Sewerage. In proof that it is not due to defective sewerase it is often said that diphtheria is found very frequently in the country. The tact is, however, the most defective sewerage is to be found in the country. It is a common thing to find the slops thrown out upon the ground with no adequate provision for drainage. As a result of this frequent watering snd enriching of the soil, a very luxurious growth of vegetation arises, which effectually shuts out the sun and prevents thorough aeration.

If a itt-MDool is used there is no provision for -ventilation except nrougn tne sine into trie house. As a rule in the country the pipe con ed iniz the sink with the cesspool is made as traizht as possible, with scarcely anything to prevent gas passing constantly into toe bouse, in one no use examinea Dy tne writer the pipe passed down from the sink into a wooden trough under the house. The trough, covered of course, conducted tha water in'o a cesspool about ten feet from the house. Under the kitchen and dining-room there a as no cellar, though there were two small windows they were kept shut, thus affording no ventilation. The owner was a model of neatness according to report, and he thought himself extremely careful.

Imagine the surprise, therefore, when it was found that the end of the wooden trough had rotted off. In the Country If mm The trough was blocked with greasy slum, and the sewage bad for soma time been run- ning onto the clayey ground under tha house. Toadstools and moid were abundant. Under the dining-room there was an abandoned cistern partially rilled with decayed boards and other disease-breeding substances. It is a co-mmon thing for v.

ell in the country to be to situated that they take the raid age from burn yards. the little city of Kalamazoo soma years go out of 92 cases of diphtheria reported lers than 2 per cent were in houses connected with the ci sewers. Tnirty-three, or 11 per rent, were in houses provided with cesspools. The rest, 253 cases, were in houses provided with no receptacle for sewage: Slops wera ti roan upon the ground. the same series of cases 62 were supplied with water from the city mains (an unusually fine and pure water) 101 used a driven well 137 from a dug well, and 1 from a cistern.

Of the cases where water from a dug well was used 28.47 per cent proved fatal (39 cases), but from the driven well only 9.9 per cent died (10 cases). The above figures, taken from a report in the journal of the American Medical Association Feb. 27. 1886, shows strongly that both the water supply and the sewerage have much to do with the production of the disease. Undoubtedly diphtheria is often contracted from drinking water, and the milk supply often is the offending agent.

Cartons Facta. Tha fact that two cases oocur in tha same house is not always proof that the second contacted tha disease from the firsU Since both re living under the same genaral conditions tney both, may receive tba disease from the same source, but the more ausceptable patient will first yield to it. There ia no doubt but that the disease is often spread directly from person to person. There is a great deal of difference in the ability of diffarent persons to withstand the disease. It generally originates among the poorer class of residents, because their surroundings are less healthful.

Having once got a foothold it easily spreads among the more wealthy homos. Tne pampered, well fed, thin skinned 'children fall an easy prey to the disease, while those who eat lees candy and get more fresh air and sunshine, whose skin is tanned and Whose muscular system is well developed, who are not loaded with useless fat, other things being equal, either avoid the disease or have it lightly. It is not a matter of indifference to the resident of Indiana avenue how the back yards of "Biler" avenue are kept. If the pestilence is allowed, to breed in one alley it easily spreads through that entire section. Uable to Attack Any One." The disease ia liable to attack any person, though children between the agee of three snd fifteen years are especially liable.

At first the disease ia locaL A little membrane develops of a pearly white color. From this membrane there ia absorbed into the system the ptomaine poison Jroduoed by the bacillus. This poison pro-uces fever and weakness in the patient. Often paralysis develops either during the disease or as an.af ter effect. Death may be produced in several ways.

If the membrane gets into the windpipe the patient may choke to deatn. To prevent this two operations are performed. The first is culled intubation, and consists in passing a little tube between the vocal cords, through which the patient may breathe. This is 'the preferable operation, but requires considerable skill. In one case in England the doctor had read of intubation, but had no instruments for its performance.

He, therefore, took a soft rubber catheter or tube and passed it through the nose and into the windpipe. The patient recovered. The second operation trachestomy consists in cutting into the windpipe. Through the opening thus made a little metal tube is passed. One great trouble physicians have is in obtaining permission to perform either operation until it is too late to be of any assistance.

8ead for the Doctor Quickly. Whenever the membrane produces difficult breathing by extending into the windpipe, the sooner that the patient is relieved by an operation, the better will be the chances for recovery. Sometimes death is the result of the general poisoning, and resulting exhaustion, but more frequently the heart is chiefly affected. Sometimes asphyxia is produced by paralysis of the vocal cords; often tho, nerves of the heart become paralyzed producing sudden death. As to the treatment littlo need hero bo said.

"Home treatment" should not be attempted. The case should at onoo be put into the care of an energetic paysican. The first hours of the disease are the most important for medical treatment. When seen early by a physician who is thoroughly familiar with the disease, the chance for recovery are very fair unless the membrane extends into the wind pipe. It is a common practice of many to nse kerosine upon the neck for sore throat.

If there is diphtheria present in the community such treatment should never be used. Tne abraded surfaoe forms another place for the growth of the membrane and greatly increases the amount of poison produced and absorbed. In more than one case this early blistering has been the real cause of the patient death, by thus increasing the surface diseased. The Fatal Membrane. Generally the memb rane begins in the throat, from which it extends to the nose.

over tne mucous mem brans of the mouth. into the stomach or into the lungs as the case maybe. It may develop upon any mucous membrane or upon, abraded sum. but it never forms upon uninjured skin. Several cases have been reported in which the disease was contracted from defective water-closets and developed upon the genitals.

Many ti mes the fungus has grown upon the surface abraded by some accident, especially upon a burned skin. There is one portion of the treatment that rightly rests with the general public That is prevention. ithout delay every street, alley, and back yard in the city of Chicago should be cleaned of decaying vegetable matter, This is especially true of those portions of tne city which have suffered from the recent Hoods. So tar as these nuisances are on pri vate property, the occupants should at once attend to them without complaint being lodged with the department of hpalth. (garbage crematories will undoubtedly save to the resident of the city many times their cost in doctor and drug bills.

Keep Closet Clean. Watercloscts should be kept in a clean condition. The stench in mary closets and bath-rooms is fearful. Urine is allowed to get upon the floor and there decompose. The bowl of the watercloset becomes thickly coated, and is aeldom cleansed.

The room is often unvectilated, except by opening the door for the passage of some person. The wonder is not that there is so much disease, but so little. Air the room. Scrub off the howL Keen the floor clean. If in addition.

some disinfectant is occasionally used all the better, but no amount of disinfectant can take the Dlace of clean line. Every person with a sore throat should be treated with suspicion during the presence of diDhthena in the community. He should be removed from healthy individuals. A simple sore throat may often later develop into diphtheria, as an inflamed mucous membrane forms the best possible ground for tne fungus to develop upon. A person with enlarged tonsils ia also specially susceptible to the disease.

Every one sick with diphtheria should be removed to an airy, well-lighted room, preferably in the upper part of the house. The carpet and upholstered furniture should be removed from the room. No unnecessary person, and especially no child, should enter the sick room. The bed clotbee and dishes from the sick room should not be mixed with the general supply until disinfected. Dtalnfectlng.

The discharges should be burned, or passed into a strong solution of chloride of lime or icpperas. nothing and bed linen snouid be boiled in hot water tor nan an Dour, or put into a solution of sulphate of sino made by adding half a pound of sulphate and six tables poonalui of common table salt to a gallon of water. After recovery the body should be thor oughly washed and fresh clothing put on. 1 he room should be sealed and fumigated with sulphur, using three pounds for every 1,000 cubic feet of space. After deatn tne body should be wrapped in a sheet wet in the sine sulphate solution before being placed in a casket.

A public funeral should never be permitted, nor should any child be permitted near the body of a diphtheria patient. It i not alone to prevent diphtneria that the city should be cleaned. The germs or cholera also grow in decaying vegetable matter, and other diseases are propagated by the same means. The cases of cholera during the week in London and other places in Europe indi cate that we can not too soon begin to pre pare to ward off this plague. The CondiUon of Chicago.

It must not be understood that the writer regards Chicago as a very dirty city. Considering its size it is not so. Being so large it is difficult to keen it as clenn as a smaller place may be. Kelabvely more depends witn the individual inhabitants. The character of Chicago is changing very fast.

Contrast the street scenes of to-day in the heart of the city with those of a few yesrs ago. The high buildings, compared with those in use only nve years ago. show how rapidly the city is becoming crowded. Instead of more air being furnished for the CTeater crowds, the high buildings diminish the circulation of that useful article, The vitality of residents must, therefore be diminished, and each must be more susceptible to disease. Added to these conditions, the lessened circulation of air, and the conse ntient diminished dilution of air loaded with the germs of disease increases the strength of the infecting material, and so increases the danger from all diseases depending upon germs for their developments.

I be dancer ol contagious diseases in ni- cago daring the coming year and a half will be sreatly magnified In another way. It is easily seen that the larger the number of visitors and the larger the number of cities represented, the greater will be the number of persons coming into the city afflicted with contagious disease. The danger in this way increases ia direct proportion to the number of visitors. If early during the exposition an epidemic should break out in our midst, the financial injury alone to the city would be incalculable. It ia therefore a matter of the greatest importance that every resident of the city should unite to put the city in the best condition possible and keep it so.

Funarals TUls Montb. PURE FOOD WILL SAVE LIVES. It Is Within tb Reach ot All Fond. Parents. Superintendent Penney" Babe Almost a Victim of tba Results ot Improper Feeding, SOUS SUGGESTIONS.

July is a fatal month for children. Half of the funerals are Hhoee of children under years old. These little ones die from wan, of proper nourishment. B. Frank Penney, of the Standard office, New Bedford, has a rosy little youngster, Willie, who is the pride of all his relatives and friends.

In a recently published letter, Mr. Penny said "Shortly after Willie was born, he had a severe attack of sickness, with symptoms of cholera infantum. We tried various foods and many remedies, but ha grew weaker every day, until we began to despair of saving his life. Finally a friend recom mended lactated food and we began using it. The child grew better at once, and, in a short time, he was fat and strong, the very picture of health.

We bsve fed him on lactated food ever since, and he has not been ick a single dsy. Mr. Penney is superintendent qf the Pleas, ant street M. E. Sunday-school, and prominent in religious and charitable works.

lie feels that he can do no better service to mothers, who, in this dangerous season, are wondering what will become of their little ones, thsn to recommend the food that saved his child's life. Lactated food is not a medicine, is not a secret preparation, is not an ordinary food. It is a pure combination of the nutritious elements of the great cereals, wheat and barlev, to which is added pure sugar of milk and the salt found in mother's milk, making the most perfect nourishment for infant. Its preparation is entirely under the supervision of no less a man than Professor Born-ton, of Vermont University. It has the hearty endorsement of the best physician, and has done wonders in gladdening the hearts of mothers and fathers everywhere.

It must be borne in mind that lactated food is so inexpensive thst it is within the reach of everyone. One hundred and fifty meals can be made from a dollar parkage, snd the food, as prepared for the use of infants, will cost less than 5 cents a quart. In these July days, when cholera infantum ia so common, no babe should be allowed to go without it. MILWAUKEE MENTION. Mit-WArxra, July 9.

Special Correspondence. Your correspondent has never devoted much space to complimenting the chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee, of Wisconsin, Mr. E. C. Wall, but he feels constrained to say now that no man who has been at the head of a party in Wisconsin hsd so complete and effective control of the or ganisation under him as Mr.

Wall has of the Democratio party. The conditions which make this absolute control possible msy not be creditable to the party, but they exist, and Mr. Wall uses them This is what the genius has done in all age and in all departments of life, ahd if Mr. Wall is not worthy of be ing classed as a genius, he is at leest entitled to bs considered a fullfledged boss. Wall's administration is sometimes linkened to that of "Boas" Keyes and the so-called "Madison Regency" in the Republican party, but Keyes' record as a political boss is tame and Asipid in comparison with Wall's.

Ap parently there ia not a detail in the adminis tration of the Stats government that does not come directly under Wall directions, and the strange feature of it all ia that no Democrat, whether he be an office-holder or expect to be one, ever thinks of resenting all's in terf erence. Under Wall's direction the special session of the Legislature last week passed. by a unanimous Democratio vote in both houses, a new gerrymander mil. It was feared that the Republicans might again bring the matter before the Supreme Court, and the Governor's Private Secretary, Colonel Clark, and Mr. Cunningham.

Sec retary of State, came to Milwaukee Friday evening, received their instruc tions from Mr. Wall and returned to Madison st midnight. Early the next morning the Secretary of State lasued election notices, in order to prevent the Republicans from bringing the gerrymander before the Supreme Court again, the action which re sulted in the annulling of the former appor tionment having been brought in the form of a petition to enjoin the Secretary of State from issuing election notices. Outside of issuing certificates of appointment to nota ries public it is doubtful if the Secretary of State performs an omcial act without first con suiting with Mr. all.

This is not written to criticise Mr. Wall on the contrary it is meant in praise of him Wall is a man above reproach in bis private life, a genial, courteous geutlcman. if it were the custom to requiro that the details of party management square with the canons of decency and he nor, air. alls methods might be commented upon atVconaiderable length. But this ia not the custom, and Mr.

Wall i entitled to be estimated by the ac cepted standard for politicians. Judged by this he is one of the ablest and most success ful party bosses the country has produced. The Ironv-workara roubles. The event of the oast week in the Pennsyl vania iron recrion have had the effect of mak ing Milwaukeans appreciate more clearly than ever before the pleasant relations which axis between the local management of tha Illinois Steel Company and the 2.500 workmen in the mills at Bay iew. The mills are now ahut down and tho men are idle, awaiting a settle ment of the wages question but there ia not only no likelihood of trouble but the most kindly spirit prevails, and not a workman can be found who does hot speak in the kind est and most respectful manner of the management.

This is creditable to both the work, men and the management, and it furnishes additional support to the claim that the masse employed in tne industries of Milwaukee are of a peculiarly safe and intelligent character. A little trouble was bad here in 1886, but unrest seemed 'to be in the air that year and Milwaukee sunerea less tnan other cities. A striae nere ia ox rare occurrence, and the -walking delegate" is hospit-ahlv vMeived here. It ia the belief at Bay View among the work. men that a compromise the mill owners and the Amalgamated Association ill be brought about before the middle of July.

Marriage at Wholesale. Sinoa the clem of Milwaukee were sjvrelr criticised a few months ago by the press and people for the loose method nsed is marrying strange eon plea who come here most of them hare drawn the line carefully and refused to marry people who were not vouched for by responsible parties. Some of the ministers, however, have gained a reputation for marry ing every couple that came to them, and these are rusaing tne marrying dusiufbs as a isiriy "dizzy rate. One of the rasher married nine couples on the Fourth of July (seven of whom were from Chicago) and received fees amounting to $50. In deference to pub-lio sentiment this clergyman found It necessary to announce through the papers that he had been very careful to find out that each couple were all right, before be found them.

Of course it ia impossible for the clergyman to know, under tne methods followed by him. that tha strange couple were eligible, but it is complimentary to the public sentiment baas tbathe WTLXJS PIltWST. felt it necessary to say that he knew. There is a growing feeling among all classes oC people in Milwaukee against tha loose marriage methods practiced by a few clergymen, and it is probable that before many years public sentiment may become so well deaued that these clergymen will be compelled to respect it. even if they do not have regard for toe ssjcrednssa of the marriage contract itself.

The risaersaaa'a Saasoa. The week of fair weather with which this State has been favored has made fishing good in all theJnterior lakes, and hundreds of fishermen left Milwaukee this week for their fa vorits ground. The prevailing wet weather during the past two months practically rulaed early fishing by keeping the streams overflowed and the lakes too high. Now, however, the conditions are very favorable. One-party in the central part of the State report catch of 150 pounds of brook trout in four days.

Very few large muakallonge have been caught, but plenty of the medium sized ones tfrom ten to twenty pounds) were to be seen yesterday in the markets. July is not usually a good month for fishing of any kind in Wisconsin, butthia year it promisee to be the banner month. society.
