DIPgTgERIA AND IT'S TREATMENT.
SOME REASONABLE SUGGESTIONS - THE
SURROUNDINGS THAT CAUSE THE DIS
EASE.
From the Springfield Republican.

From the Springfield Republican.
Diptheria is disease which springs
from the growth of real fungus on the
mucuous membranes of the system, more
generally of the throat. 1t may be spread
by the contact of the mucuous surfaces of
those of a healthy person, as II kissing,
and is to a limited degree epidemic. From
the local parts affected it spreads to the
whole body, affecting the muscular and
nervous systems, vitiating the lymph and
nutrient fluid, and producing paralysis.
As soon as the bacterium or fungus appears
in white patches on the throat it should no
more be neglected than bleeding cash or
broken arm, and there is almost as little
need Of fatal termination of one incident
as the other. 1t has been found by actual
experiment, both in and out of the human
system. that this bactelium is killed by
several drugs, the safest and most certain
of which is chlorine water, diluted with the
addition of from two to four times the vol
ume of water. This wash is harmless,
even when swallowed, and is pretty certain
to arrest the disease. The great cyclope-
cine, gives the highest place to this method
of treatment. TO keep the patient well
housed and warm, with additional flannel
clothing if necessary, and to keep the sys-
tenn we'll nourished and the bowels open,
are matters of nursing often neglected;
but, with care in these respects aud early
application of the remedies above suggest
ed, there is no need of the disease proceed
ing to fatal termination, or even to the
debiltating illness and painful cauteriza-
tions which 60 together IN its later stages.
AS to the origin of diphteria, the weight of
testimony is that it belongs to the class of
filta diseases, but further than that the
source ia not clear. Families which would
be scandalized at the suggestion of nntidi-
ness are attacked, while other of filthy sur
roundlngs escape. This simply shows that
our sense of cleanliness needs cultivation,
so that we may discriminate between what
is offensive to the system and offensive 70

OAKEY HALL AS JOURNALIsT.-Mr.
Halls experience in general journalism is
not SO small as outsiders may imagine.
He wrote, many years ago-t.enty-five OR
thirty years-on the New Orleans papers,
corresponded with New York papers, and
when he came to New York was employed
by Parke Benjamin, possibly as reporter,
but that do not know. During eight or
ten years he was voluminous contributor
to the Leader, owned by Peter u. Sweeny,
and his friends, IN whose columns Henry
Clapp, the KING of Bohemians, Nathan D.
Urner, Charles D. Halpine, Joseph How
ard, Jr, Nathan g. Shepherd, George Ar
mold, Stephen Fiske, Frank 0tterson, G.
B. Seymour, james T. Brady, John Clancy
and others of what was known in those
days as the I" Pfaff Gang made their early
journalistic ventures. Tbs columns of the
Herald have often been enriched by Mr.
Halls contributions, and in former days
many of the bright and sparkling epigrams
for which the New York Star was noted
came from the then Mayors ready pen.
Still all this did not fit Oakley Hall for the
position of city editor. -PAita. Times.

Maria Roze Among the Criminals.
Erom the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald.
A very remarkable scene was presented
in the Auburn prison at an early hour on
Tuesday morning, when Maria Roze Ma
pleson the well known prima donna, visit
ed the institution and sung in the presence
of nearly all it's inmates, embracing up
wards of 1900 convicts. An incident of
this character has occurred but. once be-
fore and that was on the occasion of the
visit of Jenny Lind. A letter from one of
the gentle men present depicts the scene as
extremely touching. On the arrival of
Maria Roze she desired to know if all the
prisoners were present, and being answer
ed in the negative by Keeper Wells she re-
ouested that even those who might be IN
solitary confinement should, as. a special
privilege. be permitted TO come into the
chapel ud join the other convicts IN lls7
tening to the music which she proposed Il
stag. The reqnes was accorded. and ga. "a
moor fellows. some sSs them for the first
time in many years, we permitted once
more not only to look upon the face OF
beautiful woman, but hear again from aa
accomplished artist the sweet notes that
reminded them of the innocent days of
youth. The chief selections of Nine. hoze
were "Sweet BY and By" and "Sweet
Spirit, Hear my Prayer" and the writer Of
the letter states that even the most har-
dened criminals were stirred to tears. At
ter this the fair cantatriee made tour OF
the institution, the prisoners staying in the
chapel and on her return she sang the old
familiar air, "Comin' Thro' the Rye. ?"
Meanwhile some of the most intelligent
convic S had been permitted to prepare
testimonial of thanks which was duly sign
ed and presented to the lady. 1t closed
| with the following quotation:
tod cent Ills singers aPeH earth
With songs of sadness and of mlrth,
| That they might touch the hearts of men
And bring them back to heaven again.
/ There can be little doubt that every one
of those 1900 prisoners worked with cheer
Ter hearts al, that day, aud that the poor
fellows in solitary confinement especially
will long recall and enjoy the fresh ray OF
sunlight.
