A Valuable Newspaper.

Gershon b. Van Gorder, of Terrace
street has in his possession a unique
and very valuable old newspaper the
Boston Gazette of March ~, ITO, in
which is fully described in the bewild-
ering style of typography then in use
the details of the Boston Tea Party"
MIR. Van Gorder has it in frame with
glass on each side OF the paper, so as
to preserve it from the ravages of time
and careless fingers. The paper has
several columns of quantity worded
advertisements, among them several
announcements of imported articles
which were for sale by permission of
the merchants committee" showing
that the leaders of the Boston Tea
Party" were precise in what sold as
products of the mother country. The
paper has been in Mr.. Van Gorder's
family for sixty years or more, being
handed down as an heirloom from
father to son. The present owner has
also a copy of the Lackawanna jour-
nal of 1S49, staunch Whig paper pub
lished at the county seat.

THE PROPOSED NURSES HOME,
A Most Worthy Subject for Some
Well-to-Do Citizen to Consider.

The proposal set forth in wednes-
days Tribune to build a nurses home
as an annex to the Emergency hospi-
tai in this city, has been generally dis
cussed the past two days. Last even
ing the Leader, OF this city. dis
cussed the subject on its editorial
page and lent additional arguments to
show that such building is urgently
required.
The excellent service that has been
given at our local hospital, has
brought patients to ii from many
points. even far from the city. and
today this institution is crowded to
most uncomfortable degree. As
pointed out in The Tribune, the nurses
have been forced to yield their own
comfort and give up their own rooms
to patients in need of care ands,surgl-
cal attendance. Even the nurses par
lor, the one place that could be here
tofore regarded as their private quar-
ters, has now been given up to pa
tients.
At the best OF times these women
have a hard. tilsome, selfless life, and
when off duty they should have a
house apart from the scenes of their
daily. vocations. Such a house could
be erected within the hospital grounds

Were Acquitted.

On information by Charles Banker.
Of the West Side, John Gordon and
wife were tried before Alderman Del
evan. of the Sixth ward, last night on
a charge OF conspiracy. Early last
year Banker was sued before Alder
man Bunnell for a board bill alleged
to be due the Gordans. Judgment was
given against Banker who, however,
failed to come up with the required
amount and therefore the alderman
issued an attachment last week against
Banker on his wage claim. Banker
claims he never boarded with the Cor
dons and alleges that the whole busi-
ness was a conspiracy to get money
out of him. In the hope of invalldating
the attachment he entered the suit for
conspiracy. The testimony disclosed
some rather breezy complications but
was not of character to sustain the
charges to the defendants were dis
charged.

BOARD OF HEALTH's MEETING.
Will Enforce the Vaccination of Pu-
pills Before January 2l.

The board of health of Carbondale
held a meeting in their room in the
city building last night. Those pres
ent were DR.. j. S. Niles, president; G.
w. Evans, secretary; F. f. Mofitt,
sanitary officer; A. d. Wyllie and E.
II. w. Burke, members.
The most important business trans
acted was discussion of enforcing the
vaccination of the pupils of the public
schools 1t was decided to stand by
their resolution of recent date to not
allow any pupil to attend public school
who is not vaccinated or who has not
had smallpox, by January 21.
An agent for a vaccination shield"
designed TO protect punctured arms
from injury, appeared before the board
and eXtolled the merits of his device.
A discussion took place as to the vac
cination of poor children at the cost of
the vaccine, but as this cannot be done
at the already overtaXed hospital and
as no physician can be found who will
do it, it hardly seems possible this can
be effected.

DrOuet Method.

This method of treating the above
diseases was originated by the cele-
brated French physician, DIR. Drouet,
OF Paris. The treatment consists In
the direct application to the mucous
membranes Of specific remedies, which
act by gradual impregnation on the
diseased tissues with remarkably suc-
cessful results. A most ingeniously
constructed instrument and apparatus
Is required to carry out this mode OF
treatment. BY It's use every portion Of
the Nose, Throat, Larynx, etc, are
illuminated for the purpose of dag
nosis and treatment. The remedies and
medicines are introduced to the dis
eased tissues In the form of vapors and
medicated air. which produces n mild
and soothing effect upon the congested
and infiamed membranes. A single
trial of this treatment will convince
any one of its beneficial effects.
This method of treatment is now in
troduced from Europe in the United
states for the first time. It's advant.
