In the mouthpieces of telephones, par
ticularly In public places. Influenza,
pneumonia, diptheria and tuberculo-
sis, according to Mr.. Gobrich, lurk In

him on coatings from the mouthpieces

number of different species of bacteria

a large number of tuberculosis germs.
Mr.. Gobrich urges that the Health
Department compel the telephone
companies tsequip their instruments

destroy all germs as they enter the

Back Yards and Public Health.

While the typhoid fever experts are
looking around to find the cause of
the disease prevalence In this district
they might pro6tably turn their at
tention to the dirty back yards that
abound In some parts of Washington.
This condition may not account for
the wide spread of the fever through
out the District, but II may be held
responsible for the low state of the
public health in spots. 1t is undeni-
able that the back yards of Washing
ton, owing largely to the shielding in
fluence of the high fences with which
this city is equipped, are In a low
state of order and cleanliness. 1t Is
the slovenl habit of many house
holders to use these spaces as dump
ing grounds. Trash of all kinds Is
allowed to accumulate. Garbage cans
are not carefully disposed of and re-
fuse Is permitted to gather In damp
corners until nuisances are generated.
Neighbors are loath to complain of
the laxity of those responsible for such
conditions, yet at times they are
forced to do SO for the sake of their
health and at least their physical
comfort. When such complaints are
received the police and health depart
ments move to some extent in com
pelling cleaning up, but they seldom
take the initiative and examine into
the state of things behind the fences
Seekers for houses to rent are often
appalled, by the filthy state of the
back yards they inspect, and are in
some cases deferred from taking
premises which are otherwise attract
i've because of the evidences of un'
sanitary habits on the part of previou;
tenants. Real estate agents can dc
much to cure these conditions by hav'
ing the back yards cleaned ur
thoroughly after slovenly tenants
leave.

The post Office department is keep
ing close watch upon the rural routes
which have been so rapidly established
in the past few years, to see whether
the expense of maintaining them is
justifable. Perhaps no rural route
furnishes enough business to pay the
carriers salary and unless the income
reaches a certain per cent. the route
may be abandoned. The patrons of
rural routes should take an interest
in making the routes pay as well as
possible. They can help In this by
using the route in sending out all their
mail and buying their stamps from
the carriers. Every penny counts
when the total business of the route
goes to Washington in the post
masters report. BY mailing all let.
ters, packages, etc, in the box es of
the routes, much may be done toward
maintaining the route in favor with
the department at Washington.

Trolley Talk.

The recent survey of the two trolley

staunton, Buena Vista, Leesburg and

Staunton, Memphis, New Vienna and

length, however, may more than Offset

few bridges would be required In the
construction of either line, and these

UNION VETERANS LEGION
Will Meet In Columbus September
II, IL, 13 ana ia.

The national encampment of the
Union Veteran Legion will be held in
Columbus September IL, IL, 10 and IA.
Thousands of the veterans and their
friends are expected to attend.
The unveiling of the Mckinley
memorial on the 14th will draw a
large crowd and will bring many old
soldiers who otherwise would not go,
as Mckinley was an honored member
of the legion.
One feature of previous encamp-
ments will be done away with this
year. There will be no parade. The
ranks, thinned and broken by disease
and death, will in all probability
never be formed again.
An effort is being made, however, to
procure sufficient number of wagons
and carriages that the old soldiers
may ride over the streets of the CAPT
tai, where ten years ago, at the en-
campment in 1896, they marched.
The Union Veteran Legion is com
posed only of old soldiers who served
two or more years at the front, or who
while serving shorter time, were
wounded in the line of battle. Because
of this strict recruitment, the legior
is but small organization when com
pared to the G. A. r., which usually
br rings 100000 people to a nationa
encampment.

A Little Off.

The Ohio State Journal in an article
on Adena, contains the following para
graph:
"At the other main entrance steps
lean from large Spanish garden to a
stone wall about four feet high, which
In the old days, was guarded by what
is believed to have been a high iron
fence, as protection against Indians.
The fence is now one of small proper
tions. On the top of the four-foot
wall there are more gardens of flowers
and plants, with walk, or paths made
of large stone slabs. On each side are
the big wings of the building"
The Journal is shy on Ohio history,
or it would know that when Adena
was built, Indian attacks In Ohio we're
things of the past. The low wrought
iron fence now topping the wall is the
original fence, handmade. There was
never any need at Adena tor protec-
tion from Indians.-Scioto Gazette.
