's'ste Health of tEae City-ActiOn OF
the CITY Trustees

the City Trustees.
The Board Of City Trustees met a;
s o'clock on Friday, April -, with g
| full RoaIa present, 10 consider The
proprietv OF taking action in the mat
| Ter of public attendance Of funerals in
| cases of persons having died with the
SCARLET FEVER, how somewhat
prevalent in the City OF Carson, and
also in reference 10 the prOpriety and
| necessity Of closing the pub ic schools
temporarily. Drs. White and Smart
were pTesen: by invitation of the
Board, and were called upon to give
nedicaI and other advice concerning
the matter. They read from several
standard authorities, among others,
Smith, Ziemssen and Hartshorne.
The authorities read state in sub
stance hat the primary causes Of the
disease are epidemiral and conta-
giOus: that while it is rare, nevert he
less the fact OF a person once having
the disease, does not preclude the
person from having it again; that it
is mora prevalent with children than
adults, and that it is considered the
most dangerous OF contagious dis
eases. Drs. White and Smart pro-
nOuRte the case Of Miss Ida Marshall
OF the malignant type. The Board OF
City Trustees therefore recommend
that the funeral of deceased persons
having died OF this disease be at
tended privately; only those attend
ing that are necessary, together with
the relatives OF such deceased per
sons; ana suggest hat public services
can I've held on some other than he
day Of the funeral. They also recon,
mend that the Board OF School Trus-
tees cause the public schools TO be
closed tempOrarilv---say until the
first of May next. The Board also
recommended the following precau-
ton as laid down by DIR. Smith:
The patient should be placed IN a
separate room and no person except
the physician, nurse, or mother, be
allowed TO enter the room or to touch
the bedding or clothing used in the
sick room, until they have been
thoroughly disinfected. All cloth
ing, bedding, or other articles not
absolutely necessary for the use Of
the patient, should be removed from
the sick room. Articles used about
the patient, such as sheets. pillow
cases, blankets, or clothes, must not
be removed from the sick room until
they have been disiniected by plac-
ing them in tub OF water with the
following disinfecting fluid: Eight
ounces of sulphate of zinc, ounce OF
carbolic acid, gallons Of water.
They should be soaked in This fluid
for at least one hour and then placed
in boiling water for washing. All
display should be prohibited at
funerals OF those who have died Of
scarlet fever" By order of the Board
of City Trustees

Clean Eu.

The cause Of the sickness now
prevailing in Carson is nothing
more or less than foul water
closets. There is nothing ter
rible or mysterious about the
sickness when one comes to ex-
anime the first cause. The short
est way to remedy the evil is to
remove this cause, and that can
only be done by a thorough
cleaning Of the foul water closets
Throughout the city. Where
families are too poor 10 go to the
expense, half" bushel Of chloride
Of lime put in once i month
will Kill the active germs which
produce the disease and save
the iD funeral expenses. Car
sor is situated in the leaithiest
section Of country on the coast,
and if anything is wrong it is
with the town itself and not the
locality. No one can afford to
put this matter Of. A general
cleaning and scattering of lime
should begiH at once.

The Genoa Courier says:
The removal Of Or. Dawson
from the charge Of thu Insane
Asylum shows up to be high
banded. but poorly and snideIy
conducted piece Of political and
malicious jobbery, which is as it
shsuld be, generally denounced
throughout the State, and also
in California. It has been in
tima!ed that stop was to be
put to the newspapers saying
any more in regard to it, which
is really impossible through any
means Of actual force, which is
the case with only one or two
papers.
The Courier then proceeds to
intimate that the Enterprise has
received orders to "chcp on the
racket"
4 successful thief on New
England railroads manages to
Sit near the traveller whose trunk
he knows to be valuable. Then
he tries to turn over the back of
the seat, pretends TO find some
difficulty with the lock, and
asks the victim for the loan Of
his check to slip down upon the
catch, and SO throw it out Of
place. While thus using the ar
ticle he exchanges it tor another,
which he hands back without
the trick being detected. At
the end Of the journey, he Losses
no time in presenting the stolen
check and getting away with
the baggage to which it is at
tached.

UNABLE TO AGREE.
The Combs Jury discharged.

! AHC SShSue - vi SsSSAIVsea.
At half-past 2 O'Clock yester.
day afternoon the jury in the
Combs case sent for Judge Ed.
wards and announced that they
were unable to agree. They
were accordingly discharged.
The following is an authentic
account Of the ballots while
they were out. After retiring
they took dinner and then a
secret ballot was held which
resulted in six for guilty and
six for not guilty.
SECOND BALLOT.
About 3 o'clock another ballot
was taken and the result was
four for manslaughter, three for
assault and battery and not
guilty five.
THIRD BALr.OT.
This was taken in the even
ing and stood as follows: Assault
and battery nine, murder in the
second degree three.
Murder in second degree
Meyer, Youngblood, Lebo.
Manslaughter Carb G Try,
Longabaugh-
Assault and battery-uackett,
Hoge, Tenant. Bowker, Slater,
Dorsey, Laws.
FIFTH BALLOT.
On the next ballot Dorsey
changed his vote TO manslaugn-
ter, and Hackett was asleep. No
further ballots were taken, as
there was evidently no use. The
juror who was the most strenu
GUS advocate Of the assault and
battery verdict was Hackett.
PUBLIC FEELING.
The feeling on the streets
when the result was known was
one Of general surprise that any
one on the jury could have for
an instant entertained the idea |
that a simple assault! and bat
terry had been committed, and |
the jurors who voted fer this !
verdict WEI e roundly denounced. !
The case will now have TO be
tried over again at au expense !
Of at least $4,000. Judge Ed |
wards says that it will not be
again tried IN this county and a
change Of Venue will be allowed.

The Northern Pacific.
OaSeS.

With the driving Of the golden spike In
September, the Northern Pacific becomes
finished road for through traffic and will
be able to make good showing in the next
Congress against any movement to take
away that part Of its land grant which was
forfeited through the failure OF the original
Jay Cooke Company. Duluth, on the ex
treme southwestern point of Lake Superior,
is the charter eastern terminus OF the
Northern Pacific, but the real commercial
terminus will be St. Paul, on the Missis.
sippi, bv means of branch road from St.
Pau! to Brainard, on the Northern Pacific
trunk road, about l4o miles west Of Duluth.
No transcontinental railway has better
prospects than this one. For nearly all
the way it passes through country OF va
