THE CITY's HEALTH.
An Improvement Shown I'm the Report
for the Week.

An improvement shown In the Report
for the Week.
The reports made to the health depart
ment during the last week show an i'm
provement in the general health of the
city. as compared with the preceding two
weeks. The deaths numbered 126 as against
13S for the previous week. and the death
rate fell from 26.32 to 24.22. The principal
Improvement was the falling off in acute
lung diseases and the mortality among chill
dren under five years old. The cold weather
still bears hard on aged persons, of whom
thirty-four who were over fifty years of age
departed this life. The presence of grip is
still manifest in causing six deaths, ac-
cording to the reports received None of
the contagious diseases exist in epidemic
form. Measles, whooping cough and scar
let fever contributed nothing to the NOR
tally of the week, and there was but one
fatal case Of diphtheria reported. In con-
sideratfon of this being one of the most I'M
healthy periods of the year, the hygienic
condition Of the city is not unsatisfactory.
The whole number of deaths reported dur
ing the week was 126-white, 81; colored, ~.
There were 80 births and % marriages re-
ported.

ICE SKATING IN SUMMER.

The idea of skating on real ice on
hot summer night will commend itself
to many whose opportunities of taking
exercise are limited. especially when
while skating they can listen to good
music and enjoy smoke or drink if
need be. One of the features of the
New York summer season is a big ice
skating rink. which is to be erected
near the center of the city. Kinks Of
this description have been successfully
opened in Paris. Brussels, Munich and
other continental cities. and London
has lately fallen into line. The London
rink has an area of 0.000 square feet.
The smooth ice lends itself to fancy
skating, and is free from fissures. 1t is
only an inch or two in thickness. The
fascination of the grip of the steel blade
on real ice is said to entirely put the
roller skating rink out Of court. The
cool brine pipes ON which the freezing
process depends can be seen through
the ice. The brine is composed of a
strong solution of calcium chloride,
which is not liable to freeze, and it
rapidly absorbs the heat of the water
to be solidified. The ammonia com.
pressing machines which are used are
capable of making twelve tons of ice
per day each, and it is calculated that
rink in everyday use will require
refrigeration equal to the manufacture
of about eight tons of ice daily. In
London two promenades surround the
rink, the lower one being level with il
and the upper fitted as a smoking
lounge with band stand. In addl
tion there are club rooms reading rooml
and cafe.

THE WEASEL A DODGER.

Coming to our camp in the cool

that visitor had been there during

A 'deacon's seat stood before the open
fireplace of stone. and behind laid
thatchwise ON the gorund. were the
pine boughs upon which we were to
sleep. We had left our dunnage there
earlier in the day, and had hung up
upon peg in the wall two partridges
that we had shot.
"After we had lighted up the place
with glowing fire we saw that the
patridges were gone from the wooden
peg on which they had hung, and were
nowhere to be seen. A long search
about the camp revealed them at last
on the opposite side crowded half un.
der the bottom log of the wall as if an
attempt had ben made to get them out
of the camp that way.
1--WE hung them up again upon the
peg and in few moments discovered
weasel rnnning about them trying tc
get them down again. He appeared
to be regardless of our presence. He
would run out to the end of the peg and
work away a while to try to push the
string that held them over the enc

AMERICAN WINES LEAD.

The growth of the wine making in
dustry in California and the recent
profitable sale in San Francisco of o.
900, 900 gallons of the product at 10
cents per gallon seems to indicate that
wine will soon become, if it be not al
ready, one of the most important
productions of the Pacific slope. But
though California has been the pio-
neer in the business of wine making
ON large scale. there is no reason
why other localities should not compete
with her. 1t is said that the great
staked plain of Texas is admirably
adapted to the growth of the vine and
there are, no doubt. other States IL
which the soil and climate would
prove favorable to grape culture. and
where this industry might be pursued
with success. Ohio and the Carolinas
have long been famous for certain
brands of wine as well as for table
grapes. Indeed there is hardly state
in the Unin in which some variety o.
the vine does not flourish, although il
is only in California that the business
of wine making has as yet assumed
large proportions. 1t is not at al
likely that in the near future agricul
turists in other suitable sections of th'
country will abandon the cultivation
of such crops as are already being
raised in surplus qantities and turl
their attention to the vine and it
products. The demand is rapidly in
creasing both for home consumption
and export and the prejudice that for
merly existed in favor of foreign wine
has been greatly modified by the excel
lent and wholesome quality of tn
product that California wine maker
are now able to offer to the public
Boston Gazette.

with them. According to this foggy
yarn of Henderson they made for an
island and there in cave hid the
gold. While on the island, so the
story runs, the captain and three of
the men died of smallpox and two were
drowned by the capsizing of small
boat while returning to the vessel.
Henderson, so he says. was picked up
by passing vessel and taken to New
Orleans. He afterward tried to get
some vessel, owner to help him recover
the treasure but without success.
Henderson afterward fitted out ship
to go to this mysterious island (sup-
posed to be Cocos) but it is not known
that ne found more than an island
upon which gulls roost and shrug
their wings.
The meager kilograms from Panama
to the effect that treasure has been
found on the island simply adds more
interest to one of the many popular
of the sea.
