Although Mgr. Satolli, the pspal able-

a Washington ID. O. physician says PEG
pie speak carelessly OF scarlet fever and
scarlatina, as though they were distinct dis.
eases with entirely different symptoms aud
characteristics. Scarlatina, he says, lis
identical with scarlet fever. The term is
applied generally to milder manifestation
OF certain aspects of the disease, but ID
represents to the experienced physician
those more serious kidney complications
which are SO difficult to treat and which SO
frequently find fatal termination. 1t is
just as contagious, just as dangerous to those
who come in contact with 1t, just as greatly
TO be dreaded in every imaginable way. To
say that scarlatina is under complete con-
troll at any time is to utter the most peril
GUS nonsense. To say that there is no
danger Of contagion until the resources OF
science have been exhausted in the work
of disinfeotion is mischievous in the last de-
gree"

Goboline Up Street Railways.

The purchase of street railways in differ
ent cities by two Pennsylvania syndicates
is attracting great deal Of attention. One
is the Widener-Elkins syndicate. of Phila-
delphis, and the other Is the Mckee Werner
syndicate, Of Pittsburg. They are not COM
petitors. They seem to think there are
enough street railways for both, and hence
when ons Of them bids for road the other
stands aside and lets 10 get 1t as cheeply as
it can.
The Widener-Elkins syndicate has roads
in New York. Philadelphia. Baltimore,
Pittsburg aud Chicago. The Mckee Werner
syndicate is largely interested In roads in
New York, Buffalo, Rochester, Indian
apolis, Louisville, Brooklyn, New Orleans
and other cities.
The amount of capital these syndicates
have invested in street railways is enor-
nous, and they are still buying. Some of
the roads may not now be paying much
more than their fixed charges, il SO much,
but it is expected they will become very
profitable In the near future. because the
growth Of the cities in which they are will
greatly increase their gross receipts.

County Drainage Work.

A committee of the county commission
ers have inspected the new drainage ma
chine and seen IL in operation. They are
very much pleased with it and are satisfied
that 1t will do all the work claimed for 1t
and that 1t is equal to 100 laborers. That
being the case, 1t may be reasonably ex-
pected that q very large amount of drain
age work will be done within compare
lively short time, and that all the lowlands
in the immediate vicinity Of the city, from
which danger to the citv's health is appre-
hended. will be drained before the begin
ming Of warm weather.
Not only the drainage machine but the
whole chain-gang force should be employee
in drainage work near the city, until all the
wet lands are in a good sanitary condition.
Other and more distant improvements can
be very well and very wisely put Off until
future day.
For the first time In the history of the
county the county commissioners are in a
position to carry forward the work Of drain
log the county intelligently and ex'
peditiously. The county engineer has mad,
a survey that shows exactly what drainage
work there is to be done, and how il can be
done to the best advantages and the dredging
machine makes 1t possible to do the W orl
much more rapidly than ever before. There
is reason for expecting. therefore that all tn,
section of sthe county near the city will b,
thoroughly drained In the very near future
