Designer of Titanic Makes Statement

DCSiShST VI ItdHlC Wakes statement.
London, April 16.-Alexander Car
Isle, designer of both the Titanic aud
Olympic, in an interview today said,
T never though there was such Il
thing as an unsuitable ship. When
the news first came that the Titanic
was sinking by the head, 1 thought it
likely she would reach port The fact
that she sank within four hours after
the impact with the ice indicates that
her side was torn out"
The apparent fact that the Titanic's
boats were not sufficient to accommo-
date the ships personel is causing
much comment here, although the pa
pers are chary of discussing the sub
ject. The law does not provide the
number of boats the largest ships
shall carry. 1t only applies to those
vessels displacing up to 100000 tons
as it was passed before the present
big ships had been designed or built.

Diphtheria.

Diphtheria is very conta-
gious disease.
The essential cause is the spe-
cific germ, the bacillus of diph-
liberia.
With the growth Of this germ
a powerful poison is developed.
The parts affected are usually
the nose and throat.
The infection is commonly
transmitted by direct exposure
to persons sick with the disease,
or to persons who have diphthe-
ria in some of its mild forms
which appears to be tonsilitis or
only common sore throat.
The disease may be commune
Gated by infected articles such as
clothing or by things which may
carry infection from the mouth
of an infectious person.
In tion is transmitted
through the atmosphere for very
short distances only, as in the
sick room where the air may be
filed with particles of dried Sc
cretions from the nose and throat
of a patient.
In many cases the germ dis
appears from the throat a short
time after recovery, but in a
small percent the growth con-
tlnues for some weeks, in excep-
tionaI cases, some months.
In some outbreaks of diphthe-
ria, it has been shown clearly
that the infection was spread by
milk. It must be understood,
the real source was un-
doubtedIy some infectious person
n the dairy or elsewhere who
the milk.
Clearly, producers, or dis
of this supply should be
free from infection.

Early Morning Fire.

A four room house occupied by
the sexon of the colored VI. e.
church and Prof. Augustin was
completely destroyed by fire about
four o'clock Wednesday morning.
Just what caused the fire is not
known. The building was a
frame structure and the flames
wrapped around it in a very short
time, and before the fire engine
arrived the fiery tongues shot
skyward to a great hight illumi-
mating that portion Of the city
for several blocks.
Here the splendid water pres
sure and the good work of the
firemen manifested themselves,
for, within twenty minutes after
the hose was turned on, the
brilliant illumination soon died
and darkness again reigned.
With the exception of a trunk
all the household furniture and
clothing were burned. Five
hundred dollars will not cover
the loss.

was enstalled Wednesday. The
new Meitz & Weiss engine,
generator and all the other cleo
trical apparatus left New York
by steamer Wednesday and is ex-
pected to be here by the 23rd.
The plant will be practically a
new one and will have all that
modernity demands.
Mayor Loeb says he and the
Board will give the city a self
sustaining plant for a New Year
present.
