Ho Unwittingly Starts an Epidemic of
Diphthcra in IL MARYLAND Town


Diphtheria in IL Maryland Town
Baltimore, Dec. 11--Dr. John s Fulton,
secretary of State board of health, has
just completed an investigation of the
diphtheria epidemic ut Powellsville, Wi
comco county, and has traced the origin
to an undertaken. He reports that he
first learned that the death of IL child
from the disease occurred last October
and that il public funeral, which is in di-
rect violation of tie law, WAS held from
the Methodist Church at that place. The
undertaken, III the request Of IL woman,
opened the collin and the remains were
exposed TO the view of the congregation.
Some cotton had been placed around
the neck of the dead child to protect the
clothing from being soled by discharges
from the mouth. The undertaken took
some of the cotton, wiped the face with it
and tossed lit away. Then the people
filed mp and viewed the remains THIS
was TIE start o. the disease.
The heaviest penalty of this criminally
ignorant proceeding fell upon the under
taker whose entire family, consisting of
himself. wife and eight children, were all
i'll with diphtheria. -Four of the children

OF the Metal is Il Foolish Idea.
Washington, Dec. 11.-Scnator Teller
was asked to-day for his opinion of the
proposition which it has been stated
would be Incorporated in the new tariff
bill for duty on silver, and replied:
1T is IL very foolish idea. If they thinl;
they can catch the silver men by any such
sop rs that they are mistaken 1t would
only emphasize the claims Of the gold
men that silver is II mere commodity. If
Il duty OF fifty cents IN ounce was placed
on silver it would not raise the price of
silver II cent. The price of silver is fixed
abroad where it is USED The only silver
that is imported into this country is from
Mexico, upon which people in this coun-
try make IL profit in handling. That is
all right and there can be no objection to
1t. The price of silver is fixed by the
countries which use it for money and in
the arts. We don't Use more than ten
millions in the arts

Anthropology of womsnkInd.

The opening address of DIR. waldeyer
of Berlin at the last meeting of the
German Society of Anthropology at
Cassel contains some conclusions which
will be anything but acceptable to the
advanced" woman of the day. DIR.
Waldeyer had a great deal to say on
the somatic differences OF the two
sexes" He brought out the contrasts
between woman and man, with the pur-
pose of applying the results to the cdu-
cation and sphere" OF woman. He ar
gued that, since a wide collation. OF
measurements and statistics proves
that she has n smaller brain, has less
physical strength. preserves more traits
OF infancy and childhood in adult life
and has practically in all times and
places held a position inferior 70 the
man, so In our schemes OF social i'm
provement these undeniahle facts
should be respected. The efforts Of So
cial democrats and society leaders to
establish entire equality between the
two sexes and TO throw open 10 woman
all the avenues OF activity enjoyed by
man. he intimates, are mistaken, and
will prove failures. He quotes with
approval the opinion OF Bartels. who
maintained that the education, physi-
cal and mental. OF woman, however
high II might be. should be always
aimed to tit them for the duties OF the
family circle only
