tARlOUC tAUoE<S.
The quarterly death report of DR.. S.
L. Jepson, Health Officer, for the period
ending with the month Of September,
is a very interesting document, mas
much as a comparison with the preced-
ing quarter, in which the death rate
was very low, indicates a still further
decrease, and a present very healthy
condition of the city from a sanitary
and disease standpoint.
The report shows the total number of
deaths from all causes during the three
months to have been IS, distributed by
wards as follows: First, 8; Second. 49,;
Third. 5; Fourth, 10; Fifth, S; Sixth,
10; Seventh, 5; Eighth. 20; in institu-
tons, 5. Natives of Wheeling, SS: 9TH
er parts of the United States, 80; Ger
many, IA; other countries, 6. Forty
one were single. 81 married. widowers
and 10 widows. Four were colored.
Males were 40, females As. There were
II deaths under years of age, II from
20 to 80, and 10 from so to 20.
Taking the causes of death, the larg-
est number from any one disease, 8,
died of consumption; accidents, 5; ap-
poplexy, 4; cancer, 3; cholera, 6; dis
eases of the liver and kidneys, Z; men
nights, 4.
The most interesting portion of the
report is found in the remarks by the
Health Officer, as follows:
The city is to be congratulated on the
very low death rate shown in this re-
port. The same rate for a year would
give loss of less than per 1000,
while the deaths in September indicate
an annual rate of less than 7 per /, 900.
The deaths for the quarter and the
month OF September are the lowest in
the history of the city. For the pre-
cedlng five years the deaths for the
corresponding quarter were as follows:
126, 123, 116, 100, 49, In September.
1897, the deaths numbered 25, the low
est up to that time for any one month,
but three above the month just ended.
Since the opening of our schools, as
was to be expected, a number of cases OF
diphtheria and scarlet fever, viz: 8 of
the former and % of the latter, have
been reported. But one death from
each has occurred. The type of dis
ease is therefore mild, but it may grow
more severe as cold weather sets in. l
would suggest to the teachers of the
city that they allow no children to re-
main in school who comes with the
throat wrapped, or with any indication
of throat disease.

The main plot in Hoyt's "A Day and
d Night" which comes to the Opera
House next Saturday, tells of an old
naval officer who, returning from a
long cruise, finds the boy whom he had
left grown to be a man, devoted to
sewing circles and church fairs. The
young man goes to New York to select
singers for church choir, and the
father goes along, intending to show
his son little of the town. The father
falls in with theatrical manager who
says that he will introduce his son at a
private dinner party to a number of
chorus girls, passing them off as church
concert singers, and the father is to
keep in hiding to witness the fun.
When all are gathered an eX-leading
lady of the theater discovers that the
good young man is her fiancee. When
the fun is at its height the minister
and the mother of the young man put in
an appearance and there is a warm
scene. The father energies from his
hiding place and denounces the mother
for bringing up her son so rigidly.
The ex-leading lady reveals herself to
her lover and all is forgiven.
