MALARIAL. DISEASES.

The great increase of typhoid
and sther malarial diseases in
cities has been noticed and is
now attracting theattention Of
those.engaged in sanitary studies
Some light is thrown on the sub
ject by Typographical atlas o.
the city of New York, prepared
by General L. Viele. a military
engineer of high reputation. We
learn from the Post that the
map shows portions Of the soil
to be saturated with streams
which have been filled and built
over, and that the General has
always found that lines Of disease
running through the city CORES
ponded with the courses of the
streams which originally water
ed the country. He found a
map just after New York had
been severely visited by the
cholera, in which those parts Of
the city were marked where the
deaths had been most numerous
The persons who made the maps
were quite ignorant that the
cause was but a few feet below
them. General Viele discover
cd that the lines of the disease
corresponded exactly with the
original water courses.
The mistake made by the
builders of sewers in New York
was in not taking up these
streams. In several cases the
sewers were built many feet
above the. springs instead of a.
long their course and including
their flow. The subject is one OF
interest for other cities than New
York. a

sundry papers about President Grant having
changed front with what is known as the Gus

escorted to Central Park, ON the occasion of
the laying of the corner stone, by Thomas E.

sioner by Mayor Havemeyer. The facts are
that it was r. s. Stuart, sugar retiner, a man

To the Christian women Of Portlau

The Woman's Temperance Association ap
peals to you for aid in behalf of the cause of
temperance. The evil of liquor selling, in our
city, is truly fearful one, and those who are
banded together for its overthrow are few and
feeble We have sought Gods aid and now
we turn to you aud ask you to come and help
us in doing this work for God. We cannot but
recognize His signal favor shown to this work
In other places throughout the land. We doubt
not that He is ready to bless us here, if willing
hearts will rally to the work.
None can realize the havoc which this mon
ster evil is making until they come face to face
with it as some of us have done, recently, in
this city,, The ale shops and beer saloons, to
say nothing of the places where stronger liquors
are sold, are tnronged at all hours of the day
with young men. Here are Sown seeds of
drunkenness and vice which will speedily pro-
duce terrible harvest
A few of us have banded together in efforts
to stay the progress OF the destroyer, but the
work calls for much larger numbers. Shall it
fail for lack of your sympathy and aid? Are
you willing that the work shall cease?
Wives and mothersl perhaps some of your
sons husbands or brothers are becoming prey
to this deadly foe. Perhaps, unknown to you,
the grasp of the destroyer is already upon some
dear one We know of boys of not more than
fifteen years who have come from the saloon,
evening after evening, under the influence of
liquor aud sometimes hardly able to reach their
homes without help. They belong to respecta-
BILE families and as they retired at once to their
chambers the parents were all unconscious of
the dark shadow hanging over their home.
But if your home is not thus threatened, 9th
ers are and we call for your corporation in saw
ing them. This deadly Upas tree is sending its
roots deep, extending its branches wide and
hanging out it's baleful fruit over our homes.
Under its shadow thousands are sleeping the
sleep, and we, too, who ought to be awake and
at work are parayzed by its noxious odors.
The strong arm hangs nerYeless aud weak.
Something must be done! The feeble efforts
of the few seem but trying to break off a twig
here and there while the roots are still extend
ing and strengthening Christian women of
Portland, we ask you all to join in such over
wheming numbers that the detestable thing
may be banished from our fair city.
Centuries ago the people of Israel were fight
ing powerful foe. With one exception the
cities were loyal and victory was gained. On
that city the woe was pronounced, Course ye
Meroz, curse We bitterly the inhabitants thereof
because they came not to the help of the Lord"
Women of Portland, place, which in this
reform stands as "a city that is set upon a
hil,' whose influence will be felt for good or
evil throughout the land, see to it that this
curse does not rest on us because of our in
diffarancp
