Vital Statistics,

1t is reported that there were 81
deaths in Wilmington last.week; es-
timating the population to be 1000,
would give an unusual death rate
of 1850 in the observation-disclosures this
is good news. Let all the praise
be given to the great Judge of all
the earth who is kind and loving
Heavenly Father.
In Philadelphia for the week end
ing January 18th, there we're 5O4
deaths, a decrease of 9 from those
of last week. Population 1890, last
census, l,046, 964, annual deathrate,
25.O5. Suppose the population has
increased to 1,200, 900, then the an
nual death rate would be 21,OS.
Counting 5O4 deaths each week
would be 26,20S deaths. There
were 1877 cases of diphtheria and 2S
deaths and 2O.45per ct. of the cases.
Anti-toXine does not do the work ella
lined for it. There were 143 deaths
caused by lung diseases or IS per
cent. of the total deaths. Typhoid
fever, 81 cases and one death. This
is great improvement. A physi-
clan in Norristown, Pa, feeds his
patients on sauer kraut and the ef-
feet is wonderful. Eleven soldiers,
victims of the Cuban campaign,
were cured in two weeks in a hos
pital in Norristown.

SMALLPOX
In CHESTER.
Allegations That the Pa.
tient Contracted the
Disease Here.

F.! The following despatch from
! Chester under date of last night te
a Philadelphia paper says:
! "The city of Chester has been
awakened 10 the necessity OF a
strict quarantine against small.
pox, which appeared in the Fifth
ward this afternoon. The victim is
Miss Mary Bonner, young woman
l8 years of age. A special meeting
of the Board Of Health was held
tonight and it was decided to en-
force the laws strictly to stop the
spread of the disease. The atflict-
ed young woman is a daughter of
John Bonner, formerly chief engi-
neer of the Philadelphia Mint, and
she lives at Seventh and McIlvaine
streets. The case was diagnosed
this afternoon asfully developed by
Dr.. Isaac Crowther.
Miss Bonner had been to vii.
mington, Del, where the disease
has been raging, to visit her father
and mother. and it is believed this
is where it was contracted. After
returning she mingled freely among
the high school pupils until day
or so ago. when she complained Of
feeling i'll. The great concern is
that the germs may have communi.
Gated to others, and developments
are awaited anXiously. Miss Bon.
ner is a member OF the graduating
class of 1900.
AS soon as the case was reported
to the health authorities the yellow
flag was run up and people gave
the street wide berth. DR.. Hoop
man, president OF the Board of
Health. foresaw the danger to con-
tagion from traffic between Chester
and Wilmington some time ago and
wanted the Health Board and the
School Board to make arrangements
for special quarantine, but both
propositions were turned down.
The Board of Health will not
permit the neighbors OF the infected
Mcllvaine house to move away, and
prepared tonight to contine the
case to that locality"
Secretary Wigglesworth of the
Wilmington Board of Health when
seen this morning said: at Is very
Unfair to the city of Wilmington to
have such a reports as that to 60
broadcast. Ten days ago we were
acquainted with the fact that our
city with over 10000 people within
its limits, had case OF small pox.
Since that time there has not been
stranger allowed IN the infected
house. Miss Bonner was not in
that house and there was no other
case in this city. Talk about
smallpox raging in Wilmington; it
seems that the "raglng" is in the
minds of the newspaper men who
sent out such reports. If the Chcs-
ter people will try and attend to
their own business. we will try and
look after the health matters coming
under our notice in this city,"

Life in Arizona.

From letter written by a corres-
popdent at Phoenix, Arizona, dated
January 7, 1000, we learn that DR..
Peter Cooper has been confined to
the house for three weeks, and he
has passed most OF the time in bed.
He has had a very high fever and
slight hemorrhages. The corres-
pondent says: ~ was over to see him
this morning and his wife said he
was in bed and felt miserable. Her
cousin who came on here from
Brooklyn, N. Y, some weeks ago,
suffering with consumption, died
at the hospital this morning. She
was quite upset by his death as she
could scarcely get away from the
doctor long enough to make arrange
ments for his interment, which will
take place here.
Mr. McVey is picking up, but has
had set back in the shape of a
bad cold, which he caught last
week. He felt so bad one day that
he did not leave his bed, even for
Aho hSulS, pVt HC is d lllllC UellCT
now. He will be all right as soon
as he gets rid Of his cold. All who
come here suffer in that way until
they get acclimated.
l am feeling fairly we'll except for
cold in the head | cannot get rid
Of. have come to the conclusion
that sit in the sun until get into
perspiratIon and shall hereafter
try to avoid getting so warm.
We en- Joy life here better every
day. and it seems that we will re-
gret the approach of April, when
we shall leave for Wilmington. They
say the summer here is very bene-
fetal for consumptives, and if Will
mlngton air shall prove depressing.
l may return, as | do not wish to
lose all I have gained by my resi-.
dence here"

He uwelt strongly upon the fact that
the railroad corporations, express compan.
les and large banking institutions arc to-
day Insisting upon the men whom they
take into their employ being total abstain
ers and that they refrain entirely from
the use OF tobacco whilo on duty.
He also spoke of the large banking firms
serving luncheon in their banks for their
clerks atthe noon hour, so the men would
not have to go out to some saloon to get
luncheon and at tho same time ofton be-
come intoxicated and fail to report for
duty. They do not look ut it in a santi.
montal light" he said, but as a mat, or Of
