Connect with the Fire Alarm.

The experience of narrow escape from
disastrous fire at the almshouse early this
morning should serve to impress upon
the management of that institution the ad-
vantage and necessity of connection Of
the buildings with the city fire alarm
system.
Had the slight fire of to-day not been
promptly discovered it might have gained
such headway that the delay in summoning
aid from the city would have been disas-
trous.
Many human lives and much valuable

Housed I'm.

For the last three months great many people
have been housed up, because they have not felt
able to Withstand the stormy wlntry weather
that has prevailed. But unfortunately the con.
fnemeDt and close air Of modern houses during
the winter season, Is very enervating, and the
system needs help TO enable all the organs to do
their proper work. II these organs have been
inactive the consequences are showing them
selves In the bilious condition of the system, or
In constipation OF the bowels, or in disorder OF
the kidneys, with all the aches and pains that
accompany these complaints. II you are In this
condition from any cause you should make n
faithful trial of that well known remedy, Kid
ney-Wort. II acts Mt the same time the kid
neys, liver and bowels, and is therefore espe
cially fitted to correct this torpid condition OF
the system.

INFECTIOUS DISEASES an

INFECTIOUS DISEASES IN SCHOOLS
Some Important Precautions That VIII Pre-
vent Their Spread.
From the Philadelphia Record.
One of the small conspicuous evils due to
the assemblage Of children at schools, and
ono to which sufficient attention has not yet
been directed in this country, is the liability
OF the spread of disease through personal
contagion. The medical officers of Schools
association, which was formed i'm London In
1874, has just issued code OF rules which
contains some valuable suggestions, from
which the following is taken:
Tho following quarantine times, after the
exposure Of pupil TO infection, are recom-
mended as safe II thorough disinfection be
carried out on the pupils return to school
Diphtheria, II days quarantine; scarlet fever,
"a days measles, III days German measles,
III days chicken-pox, Is days smallpox, "A
days mumps, "A days; w6ooping-cough, Il
days.
Disnfection at home, IL is urged, should
not be relied on but Immediately on the
pupils return to school he should be washed
head to foot, in hot bath, and that clothes,
books and eperything brought back by him
should be completely disinfected.
With regard to the question, "When may
pupil who has had an infectious disease go
home or rejoin the school ~ the following
are recommended as safe rules:
Scarlet fever-In not less than six weeks
from the date of the rash, II desquamation
have completely ceased and there be no ap-
pearanoe of sore throat
Measles-In not less than three weeks from
the date of rash, II all desquamation and
cough have ceased.

In very bad taste. The action of Congress in
placing the old soldier in this comfortable
berth was an entire gratuity, and it was
superinduced by the belief that it would
soothe the dying hours of one whose SER
vices to the country ina critical period had
been of very great value Butthose services
have been amply compensated for in honors
paid to Grant that were accorded to no other
American citizen. To say that Congress- act

most undisguised kind.

LANCAsrER. 1 MARCH 5. 1855.
The NeN PresIdent.

Resident Cleveland has risen high very

"a tho ranks to leadership. That which
mated him is easily seen. 1t was simply
{11& he showed himself equal to the duties

Eeeched now an altitude beyond which
thote is no other, and the only remaining

himself in this supreme place as he has done

4 assurance afforded in his calm and
strengthful manner at his Inauguration,
That he at least has no doubt that he will
again be equal to his occasion. In this
sqIf-conRdence there is half of the winning
0f the battle. Good intentions and good
p0wers may be paralyzed by lack of cour-
- md confidence. There is plenty of
evidence in Cleveland's career that he is
MN endowed with sense and self-will
0hich are the essential elements Of execu-
6xe success. From all that has been
hiljited Of his character very coufident

little experience in the great nationa

certainly, nor has he yet shown an
weakness of mind. His inaugural ad
dress is simple in it's style and strong il
it's declarations; without entering into de

The peace and amity in which the Demo
Gratis and Republicans of Missouri, dwell on
the question of postoffice appointments Is
truly admirable. Senator Vest was recently
asked for his influence by a certain individ-
ual TO make him postmaster at Lansing. The
senator replied that custom and courtesy re-
quired that the applicant should seek the
representative In Congress from his district,
ramd that Interference on his tt1viests) part in
the matter would be unwarrantable. Where
upon the candidate sought the Hon. William
Warner, the congressional representative
who Is a Republican. The latter admits the
propriety of the Democratic senator's re-
marks on the subject of district appointments
and says |: "If have the rights in my district
indicated by the senator, shall recommend
Democratic for tho local ofiiooe if IL 10 the
policy of the administration not TO appoint
Republicans. You are at liberty 10 say 10
| Senator Vest that II he recommends you,
| shall throw no obstacles in the way Of your
| appointment" This correspondence will
doubtless DO carefully perused by Congress

| presentation Of the question Of the rights ia
district patronage by Republican congress-
men even under Democratic administra

The LORD MAYOR OF Dublin has stirred
up tempest by his firm utterances at a mass
meeting in Phoenix Park on Sunday last
anent the proposed visit Of the Prince and
Princess of Wales to Ireland. He then de-
clared that he would "haul down the flag on
the Mansion house the moment the Prince Of
Wales landed at Kingstown." This he now
explains by saying that he meant ''to indicate
that the strained relations between Earl
Spencer, the lord lieutenant, and the Nation
alists would prevent the offering of municipal
hospitality to the Prince of Wales while he
was guest OF Earl Spencer" In the Ian.
guage OF the street urchin, the explanation is
"too thin" The lord mayor had better
simply acknowledge that he allowed his per
sonal feelings to get away with his official
discretion. Explanations like the above
only plant him deeper In the mire.

The flag is about 8 feet long and 2
feet wide, and bears on it's azure field
the number of stars representing the
13 original States. each star having
the name of q state across its face,
while that representing the old
Dominion has in addition the name

Temperance Address.

4 circular addressed to the citizens
! of Anne Arundel county, has been is
.aed by the Temperance Convention
recently held in this city, as follows:
The Temperance Men 10 Council,
ofer the congratulations to their fell
5w.citizens on the great good that has
zen accomplished by the Local OPP
ion Law throughout the county dur
ng the time, Ga little over two years.
h has been in operation. Through
Ill the rural districts this effect is evil
dent. We challenge a denial on the
part of any reputable citizen. Liquor
stores and saloons have been every
where closed. Where alcoholic drinks
are sold surreptitiously great care is
taken by the lawbreakers not to be-
ray themselves by selling ia exces-
iye quantities to any individual. BY
the closing Of such resorts we are
largely saved the debaucherv Of our
Youog men whose chief danger for
nerly was the convivial habits which
such places fostered. Again many
are the homes in every locality to
which temperance has brought com
tort and peace, where before the pas
SAGE of the law, squalor and wretch
edness reigned. We are aware of the
ifhculties which exist in the enforce
nent of the law in Annapolis, where
The plain will of the people is largely
Uaded and much harm done by evil
men who shelter themselves, for the
time being, behind certain decisions
d the courts But testimony is strong
that even in Annapolis great good
has been done by local option. In-
temperance with local option is much
less than formerly without One of
Tie objects which the citizens of our
county should have before them is to
have the laws under which the disre.
pOtable shield themselves so modified
IS to prevent the defiant pursuit of
he ungodly traffic. The evil, we are
0nvinced, can and soon will be reme-
lied For the will of the people is,
! d right, the law Of the land and
aust soon formulate itself under stat
GtoFy provision. We congratulate
our fellow-Citizens for these reasons,
nd also upon the good order and
peace which have been so largely
FOmOted throughout the entire coun-
III.
Our desire is to continue and in
1esse this good work, to keep the
tres Of zeel burning in the hearts and
ainds of'Sur people, and. so to hedge
car great cause about with q high
oAed and enlightened sentiment that
