Tuberculosis Rightly cIasscd.


The Health department of the city Of
Philadelphia has decided that in future
tuberculosis shall be classed with
other diseases that are dangerous to
the public health, such as smallpox
diphtheria, scarlet fever. and other
contagious maladies. The law ii.
Pennsylvania and most other States of
the Union requires that every case of
contagious disease shall be reported
TO the Health department Hereafter
all cases of tuberculosis must be so
reported by the attending physician
The purpose of this law is to enable
the Health department to take neces-
sary steps to prevent the extension of
this disease by disinfection of the
apartments which have been occupied
by the patient, and by instruction of
the patient and the patients friends
how infection from the disease may be
avoided.
This law is a good one, and ought
to be enforced in every civilized COM
p.unity.

Scrubbing Habit General.

Dutch COWS are generally spotted
black and white and frequently wear
blankets while in the meadows. The
result of the scrubbing propensity OF
a Dutch housewife must be seen to be
appreciated. This habit is mania
and stops short of nothing which can
stand soap and water. 1t is said that
the reason Of so, much cleaning is
the fact of so much water being near.
and being easy to get, they cannot
resist using it. And so even the win
dows of their barns are brilliant, and
the cobbles in the streets shine with
a soapy luster.
Who can describe a Dutch kitchen?
It's old brass is FURNISHED like gold.
It's pewter is quaint, its Delft is rare,
and the old tiled chimney places,
where the apple-cheeked children,
with their little towheads, gather in
picturesque groups, are seen in every
home.
One sees also in these interiors of
the humble Holland folk, all the odd
originals of the great Dutch masters.
Instead of painting winged angels,
monks, madonnas, nuns and popes,
they TRANSPORTED upon canvas the
joys Of welded life, the mother, the
baby in the cradle, merry making,
lovely meadows, sunsets and splendors
Of light and shade"

The Minnesota department. is one of
the few insurance departments in the
United States that prepares a state
ment showing the exact profit of each
company, and the annual report of the
Minnesota commissioner for this sea-

writers of other states The plan of
preparing such a table was inaugura-
ted by Former Insurance Commission

by Insurance Commissioner O'Brien.

MAUsoLEUM FOR M'KINLEY.
Brief Description of Magnificent Tomb
to Be Built for Remains of
Late President.

New York, May 1.-THE trustees
of the Mckinley National Memorial
association met Wednesday and for
mally approved the design for maui
solemn submitted by H. VanBurne Nc
Gonigle, who was appointed consulting
architect to the board six months
ago. 1t was decided, also, that work
should be begun at once, and a sub
committee was appointed, which will
exercise the function of building
committee. At present the body Of
President Mckinley is in public
vault in Westlawn cemetery, Canton.
The association has purchased tract
of land adjoining the cemetery, which
will be known as Monument hill. The
approach to the hill, which is "a feet
high, called the Mall" which is 600
feet in length, will be beautified at an
approximate expense Of $50, 000. Along
the middle of this mall, with walk
on either side, will be a waterway, -
or artificial lake. A broad and mas.
s3se flight of steps will lead from
the foot of the hill up to and, in fact,
form a part of the mausoleum. From
the foot of the hill to the top of the
mausoleum, the height of the stone
structure will be in the neighborhood
of ITS feet. The detailed description of
the monument will not be made public
yet, because the committee desires
first to copyright the plan and pictures
that thew may be placed on sale for
the benefit of the monument fund.

HORRIBLE DISASTER.
Explosion of Dynamite Wrecks Pas
senger Train Twenty Killed
and 100 Injured.

Harrisburg, Pa, May 12.-Nineteen
persons are known to be dead and
more than 100 others were injured in
a railway wreck and dynamite explo-
sion which occurred early on Thursday
on the Pennsylvania railroad in the
southern part of this city. That not
more persons were killed is consid.
cred remarkable by the Pennsylvania
officials, as full box Car of dynamite
exploded directly at the middle of the
heavy express train.
There are various stories of how the
wreck occurred, but the Official yer
sion is as follows: About Tao O'Clock
the engine on the east bound freight
train was tagged by the crew of a
shifting engine ahead on the same
track. The engineer quickly put or
his air brakes, and the train, an un.
usually long one, came to sudden
halt. The strain on the air valves was
a severe one, and connecting air hose
in the middle of the train blew out
This caused the middle of the train to
buckle and the damaged cars fell
over on the passenger tracks. Just as
this happened the Cleveland express
came laundering up and "side-swiped''
the wreck. The express was stopped
within it's own length, and the third
sleeper was opposite the wrecked cars.
Before anyone could leave the pas
senger train, which was not very bad
ly damaged, few slight explosions
occurred and then there was one great
fash and roar that shook the earth.
The whole affair occurred within a
period of a few seconds. A scene OF
horror followed the explosion of the
dynamite. The passenger cars and
some of the freight cars instantly took
fire and a number of passengers were
burned to death before rescuers could
reach them.
