VENTILATION OF SEWERS.

How Prevent Contami natton Of the
House Air.
The modern sanitarians agree that
there is little dependence to be placed
on the primary sewer trap as a means
of keeping sewer gas out of the house.
The chief means of surety lie in thor
ough ventilation. The ordinary house
no more, because a larger pipe is not
SO easily or thoroughly flushed out in
every part as a smaller pipe. The pipe
should be ventilated Just outside the
house at it's lower end and the pipe
should be extended it's full length to a
least eight nine inches above the
peak of the roof, and capped by regu-
lar ventilating pillow. BY this means air
will be continually pumped through the
pipe. There are a multitude Of patent
devices that save plum bers work, and
are supposed to take the place of this
simple method of ventilation. but all
are mal<eshifts. DO not let the plumb
err persuade you that it is not necessa-
~ to extend the pipe its full size. but
that two-inch pipe will do for venti-
lation. 1t costs but little more to eN
tend the pipe to the roof in full four
inch size. Now, that nearly every vii
lagc has system of sewerage and a
water supply, it is especially necessary
that all persons understand that safety
from sewer gas is not in shutting it out
by water trap. but in purifying it by
the introduction of current of pure
nir. Main sewers should be thor
the simplest precaution against the
dangerous accumulation of gas. Yet
this is too often neg1ected.-N. Y.

Another Sensational I2umor Afioat Re-
latInG to Durrant.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 2S.-Another
sensational rumor is atloat regarding
Durrant, the accused murderer of two
girls in Emmanuel Baptist Church in
this city, and if the Tumor should prove
true it would throw much light upon the
murders. This report comes from an
Oakland citizen, who AYERS that high
official of that city has communicated
TO Chief Crowley a statement to the
effect that a San Francisco physician
informed an Oakland fellow-pra
titioner that some time ago he
had been called upon to attend profess
sionally fifteen-year- san Francisco
girl, who claimed that she had been lured
TO the beliry OF Emmanuel Church and
there ruined by Durraut. The physician,
it is said, because of the ethics of the pro-
tession, had not informed the police
hitherto.
Chief Crowley was asked this evening
ss to the truth of this runor. He first
evaded replying, and then said the police
had found no such doctor. When pressed
for positive answer Chief Crowley re-
fused to either affirm or deny the report.

THE CUBAN REVOLT.
Report that Most of Maceo's Fore
Have Beon Canfurad

Report that Most of Maceo's Forces
Have Been Captured.
Especial Correspondence of Associated Press I
GIBARA Cuba, April 20.-N our corre-
spondent has just arrived from the town
of Baracoba, which awoke on April 10th
to find it had gained prominence by the
landing OF Maceo and his party. The
town has again subsidized into its usual
tranquility, excepting that $50 Govern
ment soldiers arrived from Guantanamo
on April I'd, and those were followed .
few days later by 200 more, who came
overland from Santiago. The soldiers are
guarding the different Qualifications and
entrances TO the town both dav and
night. Besides the regulars there is a
volunteer force of 300 men that patrol tho
street at night, and hence any effort on the
part of the insurgents TO enter or captura
the town would be almost an i'm possi-
bility, unless. perhaps. they were in very
large numbers.
The party that landed on the Ist have
doubtless found it somewhat unpleasant
around here and have evidently soupht
more congenial quarters. The few tnat
left that town on the lst to join those that
landed are mostly mulattos. Il is said
that they are not many miles from Bara-
coba, and are desirous of returning to
their homes, but fear imprisonment.
Last night official kilograms were re-
ceived from Guantanamo stating that
the regulars and insurgents had ex-
changed q few shots, which resulted in
the killing of Alor Crombet and another
insurgent and the capture of seven reb-
els and all their firearms. The dispatches
further state that General >Maceo with
his followers is said to be surrounded,
and that he will be either killed or
starved to death.
The very latest news to-day says all of
Maceo's forces except two companies
have been captured.

the nineteen-year-o brother-iu-iaw OF
John h. Love, made a deposition that
the latter was the incendiary. Another

pie, widow Of Rev. Whiuple, charging
Love with the crime. Wright swore to a
complaint and Love was arrested The
accused has long been resident of this
city and the news Of his arrest has caused
considerable excitement. The deposi-
tons state that he told deponents that the
buggy and horses were insured for more
than they were worth and that the busi-
ness had not been paying. They both
claim that the hay was saturated with

q supposed ten point margin. She started
to leave the place Immediately after the

reached the door before Rumble called
out to her that the market had declined
and that she had lost her money.
The police raided the bucket-shop
about two weeks ago, and last Thursday
Rumble and 4. II. Morrison one of his
partners, we're fined 500 each by Judge
JOachimsen. Rumble paid his fine, but
