Thirty.fve Cases of Trlchiua,

DR.. Allen was last week called to
attend several cases of trichina in
German families living between
brownsville and Waltham. WOODEN
burg's family has four cases, Mr..
Shiek's nine, Mr.. Wutschieck' four,
and cases also at Becks, Steinkes and
others. The disease had been under
Roadway for several days and the
condition of the patients were very
dangerous. One death has been the
result thus far, that of Miss Tenn
Shieck. 1t was caused by eating sum.
mer sausage unlocked. and some Of
the patients are still dangerously i'll,
though it is hoped all may get well.-

A Letter From ready.
En-. PLAIN DEALER:

ED. fIAIN lIEABEN.
While q solitary hermit in q solita-
ry room, with solitary look was
musing in solitude. the idea came to
him that he would, in order to keep
his name from sinking entirely into
oblivion, write q paragraph or two
again to the PLAIN DEALER. Though
he has been denied the pleasure OF =
perusal OF its columes nearly four
months, he lives and hopes things
may soon be otherwise.
And il my position as correspond
ent for the p. D., has not been taken
yet, l will ask to have inserted in Its
columns these few lines, il not over
crowded with items of more value.
Chicago, l must say to begin with,
is much larger place than my form
er home-Lime Springs. The ceas-
less rumble OF street cars, omnibusses
baby wagons, is sickening and deal
ening to the ear Of the listener used to
the more peaceful quietude OF q
small country town.
The weather we are having here is
none of the finest: daily rains for
months have added disagreeableness
to the weather. Many wish for q
''coid snap has been wasted here.
Indeed, but the other day did we see
little boys playing barefooted in the
street.
The influenza or ia grippe" as
otherwise called, is raging pretty
badly here In Chicago, over fifteen
deaths have been reported to day to
the health Office.
Ex-health commissioner DeWolf
was congratulating himself this morn
ing on the arrival Of cold weather,
and he talked as much Of the epideln-
ic, a. a man well can afflicted OF the
same disease.
The cold weather that DR.. DeWolf
predicts will be u remedy for the grip,
is getting here as fast as it can. The
thermometer at 8 o'clock this morn:
Ing was IL above, and at 10 O'Clock it
was II. The weather man said be-
fore morning it will be 6 above, and
will stay 80 awhile. This, the whole
city which is naturally alarmed at
the steadily increasing disaster, hore-
fully awaits to witness.
Chicago..s Worlds Fair committee
returned from Washington this after
noon. Each are confident that Chi
cago will get the Worlds Fair in 1892.
They report Chicago made twice the
showing New York did, and that
their arguments were doubly con-
victing.
The Cronin trial is still matter of
unsettled dispute. While Mr.. For
lest is passionately pleading for a
new trial, Judge Longnecker Is de-
claiming it; the defendants however
begin their argument tomorrow.
With this will fling away my pen
end regardful)y inscribe myself yours
Jan. II. FADDY.
