Cholera and water supply.

Piusburg Dispatch: The statement that
an examination OF the waters of the Nile has
shown Them 10 be poliu'sd ss far ss the
catsracts, lends force TO the theory of cholera a
which was nropoun led by Dr.. Louis P.
I'm, of st. Louie, after his observations Ia
the epidemics Of 1S49 and 1866. This
theory, etaled generally, was that the
bacteria or infusoria OF cholera are
spread over an infected country until
they have poisoned the streams and water
supply, whence they are taken into the
human sys,em, and disease is caused By the
effect of polsonous matter on the stomach
His observations a. TO the character OF the
water are given elsewhere. The most pracii
cal part of the lhsory is found in the testi
mony as to the purify Of filtered water and
the preservation from the epidemic OF all
who drink no other TaieE or beverage;
Of sny kind. The experience OF the world
with cholera has clearly demonstrated that
the purity of drinking water and the prssenc'
of sIsgusnt or putrid pools are vital factor;
with reference 10 the disesss, Tne ob:sI
vstions referred TO should make j.
additionally clear 10 all minds that &c
precautions can be too great TO secui;
not only inc thorough drainage OF cities, but
the absolute purity OF The water used fol
drinking or cooking. Our water may s'
pure now, vet become infected with tht
cholers bacteria upon the appearance o
the epidemic The practice OF flterinl
it will not only, as shown b. tbs
experience referred 10, minimize Ia,
dangers OF cholera, but greatly decreas,
those of other zymotic diseases Every
means which can be taken to improve the
sanitary condition of our cities, and prepar,
the public for calmly and nationally guard
ing asainat he ravsges Of the cholera, shoult
bs attended 10 81 once, when there is plenty
of time to see that they are thoroughly
carried out. An delays are dangerous.

under the head OF Indebtedness, amounted te
81, zoe, 900; assets, $1,000, 900, nesrIy all Of

failure is laid to the fact that the house

this means Of righting its aft .irs.

R,cbmoud Telcphoue Exchange.

This institution. which should properly
have had ifs review in yesterdays edition
Of the Dispatch. Is one Of the successful
and useful establishments OF the city.
The Exchange has kept pace with the
increasing growth and prosperity Of the
city, 74 new subscribers having been added
20 the list during the past year. The total
number of subscribers is 30S-the number
on record and actually connected with the
Exchange on the Isl instant.
During the year the service OF the EX-
change has been improved in various re-
spects. The wires have been examined.
repaired, and strengthened; detective or
old-style instruments have been replaced
by newer and better ones, the centra-Oilice
switchboard and appliances reiranged
and sin,pliiied, and the personnel OF the
operating force greatly improved in COM
potency and efficiency.
TO illustrate the advantages OF the En-
change as IN econOmizer OF time, II may
be mentioned that the connections ordered
and perfected throSgh the Exchange on
the number OF actual conversations be-
tween subscribers seldom falls below 1000
per day, and sometimes verges closely
upon, ii they do not reach, 5000, OF nearly
100000 per month.
A well-managed telephone exchange Is
necessity to modern civilization. Were
the Richmond Exchange to be wiped out
Of existence tomorrow the business in
terests OF the city would receive a shock
from which it would not recover until the
old and almost obsolete methods Of local
communication could be rccstablished.
The present number OF subscribers rs
compared with the population does not
show rs large an average as Charleston, ;.
c., or many places in the East and West
with much smaller population, and where
the old and cumbrous and SIolo mag
neto system Is stlll in vogue. With the
quick and reliable service characteristic
OF a wcll-managed Law-System Exchange,
place OF the size and enterprise OF Rich
mond should be able 10 boast an Exchange
nearly doubly as large, Residence tele-
phone stations are largely increasing, house
keepers finding them invaluable az burglar
and fire-aIarms. and exceedingly useful on
innumcrable occasions.
