Kansas City Times, : | The great special premium distribution for ‘unmarried gentlemen subscribers to the Zimes came off yesterday at the Opera-House, as an- nounced, and was a genuine success. Between 24nd 3 o’clock the audience at the Opera-House was largely increased by the presence of many. Indies ‘and gentlemen, attracted thither by the matrimonial drawing set for3 o'clock. Every face wore alook of pleased expectation, and shortly after o’clock the gencral premium dis- *Libution was announced. Mr. Frank R: Alten, stepping to the front of the stage, sald that, in behalf of the Times, he would state -that the drawing, though start- Jingly novel, was a genuine one. One hundred afd sixteen young ladies, from far. and near, had requested the Times to place- their names ou its list of matrimonial premiums, and with their requests trad. sent. letters descriptive of themselves, their age, looks, - accomplishments, ete, and had at the same time sent their photo-. , graphs and the consent ‘of: their’ parents ' thst. wy should do so.” In«addition to this number - . there were many yonng Jadies who had asked 2 place on the spe premium list,.but ‘had not - ‘as.yet-sent their-“photographs. .'From the mass of letters received 124 had been selected, and their writers would be termed list No. 2, those who had sent photographs forming list No. 1. The list No. 1 would comprise 116 young ladics,. and the list No.2 would comprise 124 youn: Jadies, commencing with premium No. 200, ani continuing to premium No. 325. Nearly 1,000 entiemen subscribers to the 7imes had applicd for tickets in the special-drawing,. cach one of whom had over his own signature stated that he was an unmarried man, and desired to par- ticipate in the distrioution. Mr. Allen added that the Times was author- ized totransmit the photograph and accompa- nying letter of every Jady premium to the gen- tlemen who won their numbers, with the ¢x- ception of some few young ladies who desired to hear from the Times in regard to the geutle- men before their photographs could be sent to the fortunate bachelor or widower. It was ex- pected that a good many friendships would re- sult from this interchange of correspondence between the fair premiums and Times bachel- ors and widowers, and more thanone marriage. In case marriage resulted, the Times stood ready to fulfill each and ‘every pledge it had made in regard thereto. = The Committee in charge of the general dis- tribution were requested to take charge of the special drawing, and scon both wheels were in lively motion. After the subscribers’ and the premium tickets were mixed thoroughly the distribution commenced. The name and resi- dence of each gentleman who won a prize was announced. The Chairman, from the photo- graphs before him, selected the picture of the lady who was won, and, without giving her ‘name, gave a brief description of the lady asshe appeared in her photograph, also reading some portions of her letter descriptive of herself, but in no case revealing the name of the lady. ‘The novel drawing was throughout a pleasant: and decorous affair. The name of the fortunate gentleman will be found in this issuc. Tne Times will to-day notify by mail each of its fair special premiums of the gentleman. whose name fortune has linked with ner own; and will also, when authorized by the ladies, forward thoir photographs and letters to the lucky bach- elors and widowers. * WHAT AILED HIM. Rockland Courter. One of our dry-goods clerks called round to sec his girl, the other evening. She observed that he appeared very restless, and as he had been paying her pretty, sharp attention, she sniffed a proposal. Shedetermined to assist the young man. . “George, dear,” she said, in a sweet voice, “what's the matter with you this evening?” “There ain’t nothing the matter,” remarked George, twisting uneasily in his chair. “T think there is,” she said with great inter- es “Uh, no there ain’t, returned George; “what makes you think so?” “You appear so restless,” she explained; you act as if there was something on your mind.” “Tt ain’t_on my mind,’ observed George; ‘it's ——" and then he suddenly caught him- self_and stopped. “What is it—where is it, dear?” entreated the young Miss; “won't you tell your darling?” “J's on my back,” blurted George with un effort. “On your back?” repeated the young Miss, in astonishment. “Yes, said George, desperately; ‘it’s a porous plaster, and it itches sol can’t keep still.” The young lady fainted.

A South-Side mail-carrier haa considerable trouble in getting the usual summons at the doorway of a fine mansion on his route auswered promptly. Some times he would be obliged to ring the door-bell many times and wait a num- ber of minutes before any one would appear to receive the mail. The carrier expostulated with the lady of the house, and eaid that he could not be kept waiting so long at her door. She re- plied: “If[ knew just when it was you that rang the bell 1 would come down immediately. Tthought it was my husband." ‘ Well,” re- plied the letter-carrier, “I will ring the bell twice when I come, and by that you will know it’s me.”? The Jady mused a moment and then said, softly, “That won't do, for 1 have a friend who calls, and we bad arranged exactly that very signal.”” AN UNSAINTLY “SAINT.” Salt Lake Trisune.

PROPHYLAXIS, + To the Editor of The Tribune. Curcaco, July 13.—Any substance that will act as a prophylactic in arresting the ravages of this dreadful scourge will, we are persuaded, Le hailed with great joy, especially by the citi- zens of Chicago, when they take into considera- tion that, in the last fourteen months there have been 14,000 cases of scarlatina in this city alone, with amortality of one death in every five and three-quarter cases attacked with the disease. Many substances have been recom- mended as prophylactics in this disease, none of which haye stood the test in actual practice, and we are compelled to look further, and, in doing 86, we Will have to look a little into its etiology. ‘What is the cause ot this discase that, so far, has eluded, even with the aid of the most pow- erful microscope, all scientic investigation? The nearest that science has approached to its ig that it is a zymotic poison, cause producing s septic disease in the sys- tem, with all its disastrous effects, and all observation indicates that this zymotic pois- on is nota volatile gas, but a solid organized substance, containing within ita specific pols- on (spirftus! substance) capable of producing scarlet fever, and nothing but searleb fever, whenever taken into the system, either by in- halation or absorption. These infusoria that contain the contagion of scarlet fever have an extraordinary tenacity. Theybave been known to adhere to clothing, furniture, straw, etc., for one and two years, retaining all their deadly -poison. Prof. 'T, Watson, in_his lecture on the riniples and Practice of Medicine, gives an instance where there had been several cascs in a house. The house was yacated one year; the family returned. “A drawer in one of the bed- rooms resisted for some time the attempts to pull it open. It was foynd that a piece ot flan- nel had got betweeu the drawer and its frame, and had’ made the drawer stick. ‘This piece of flannel the housemaid put playfully round her An old nurse, who was present, recox- nizing it as having been used for an application to the throat of one of the tormer subjects of scarlet fever, snatched it from her and burned it. The girl svon sickened with scarlet fever, and tie discase ran asecond timethrough the house- ‘ting those who had uot lad it on the . Ziempen, in the Cyclopedia of Practical Med- icine, speaking of its ctiology, cites a number of cases remarkable as the aboveeoue in which the disease was carried many miles in a letter to friends. ‘his evidence annihilates the theory that the poison that produces scarlatina is a gascous substance, for no gas could be confined one and two years in loose clothes,’ or sent by letter hundreds of miles. ‘Many physicians have mistaken the effects of this organized zymotic poison in the blood of those suffering from scarlatina for the cause of the disease, because the blood was-found loaded with myriads of bacteria (micrococei), micro- bacteria, spiro-bacterio, sproutin conidea, etc., forgetting that zymotic and septic voisions act upon the blood-making organs 80 us to destroy the life of the blood, producing a state of pu-, trefaction with all its attendant bacteria, as noted above. (schizomycetes) have been found in the blood in many diseases, as described by Ortel in diph- theria, by Lebert in Asiatic cholera, Herly and Salisbury in malarial fever, and Leibmister in typhoid fever. These vegetable organisms (acteria and bacterida) being found in so many diseases show at once that they are only an ef- fect of putrefaction in the blood, and not the cause of the discase. When blood is taken from a patient suffering from scarlatina and inoculated intoa healthy person that has not had the disease, scarlet fever will be produced, but if the blood be taken from a patient suffering from typboid fever or diphtheria scarlet fever will not be pro- duced, notwithstanding the. blood used was loaded with these rod-like active bodies, basteria and basterida, but a malignant septic disease will be the result, proving that the contagion that produces scarlatina is a poison peculiar to itself, filling not only the blood, secretions, ex- cretions, and pulmonary exhalatiung, but so diffusive that it fills all the atmosphere of a house where there is a patient suffering with the disease. Prof. Tyndall has found that if the smallest possible quantity of these infusoria are communicated to 2 perfectly sterilized infu- sion of any kind, it causes it intwenty hours to swarm with putrefactive organisms. This ex- plains why so few of the scarlet fever gerins produce such destruction in the blood in so short astage of incubation. We are now prepared to take up and discuss what I believe will prove to be the true pro- phylactic for scarlet fever. Statistics show that age has a great deal to do with the pre- disposition to the disease, its greatest mortality being from the second to the seventh year, and it rapidly diminishes after the ave of 10 years, while nursing-infants under 1 year of age very seldom have the dis- ease, Why this immunity of infants? There being a cause for everything, there must be a cause for this non-predisposition of infants. Thownas says, in Ziempen’s Cyclopedia of Prac- tical Medicine, after coumerating an immense amount of statistics on this predisposition to scarlutina among infants, that, “‘compared with the numerous observations of the disease dur- ing the second and following years, the number ot cases which have occurred during tne first year are so few in number that we may safcly assume for the latter period a very limited pre- disposition.” Many svod practitioners, with years of experience, have never treated a case of scarlet fever in an infant under 1 year of age, and those that. have seen it in infants have only had one or two cases. Men of such vast experi- ence as Fleischman -saw no cases under 6 months. Haller observed one case 5 months old, Lulenborg none under 8 months, Senfft saw only one cage under 1 year, Gaupp only two cases, Boning none, Volt one at 234 months old, and, according to Bokai, infunts at the breast are rarely affected with scarlet fever. I have quoted the above able authorities to show how rarely infants have scarlatina, to prove that the grand secret of their immunity is to be found in their diet. their food being milk. Milk, theretore, seems to be the true prophy- Tactic for scarlet fever. Many will laugh at this proposition at first sight, but the statistics in its layor are greater than can be produced in favor of vaccination as a prophylactic against small- pox. The scientific world at large accept as a demonstrated fact that vaccination isa true prophylactic for. that terriblescourge to human- ity, small-pox, but statistics show that about one-third of those vaccinated have variotoid,— that is, modified variola, of which very many have died. Now, statistics show that not one in fifty, and f think I can safely say in a hundred, of nurs- ing infants under one year ot age have scarlet fever, and I firmly believe that, if the milk taken by those infants who tuok the disease had been examined by the microscope and chemically, it would have been found very much vitiated, and unfitted for. the child's food. Physiology teaches us that milk secreted by the mamma when over one year old should not be used by the child, it being so imperfect and vicious. Of course there are exceptional cases where the milk may be good for eighteen months, but one yearis the general rule. Many children take the breast until two or.more years of age; this is all wrong, and oiten does the child a3 well as the mother a great injury. course, when nearly all of its nutritive quali- ties are lost, its prophylastic virtues are gone also. Milk, to be true milk, should not only be fresh, but taken from the: breast not later than one year from the commencement of lactation. It will be readily seen that if the child’s body is poorly nourished, the power of resisting disease is sodiminished that not only scarlatina, but any other disease is liable fo supervenc. ilk is the only secreted food that contains the three class‘s of organic pri les which form the chief food of animats, viz.: albumnin- ous, saccharine, and oleaginous, with certain mineral comnpounds, especially required by the auimal organisin, Robin has compiled the fol- lowing table, siving the chemical composition of human milk: Water, 9,217,717 to 863.149; caseine, 29.000 to 39.000; lacto-protine, 1,000 to 2.770; albumen traces to 0.850; - butte}—mar- foarte: 17.000 to 25.810; oleine, 7.500 to 11.400; utyrine caproine cassiline, 0.500 to 0.700; sugar of miik lactine or lactose, 37,000 to 49,000; lac- Tate of soda, 0.420 to 1.830; chloride of sodium, 0.240 to 0.340; chloride of potassium, 1.440 to 1.830; . carbonate of time, 0. to 0.070; carbonate of scda, 0.033 to 0.056; phosphate of lime, 2.310 to 3.440; phosphate of maguesi 20 to 0.610; phosphate of soda, 0,235 to 6.25 3 phosphate of iron, 0.082 t0 0.0705 sulphate of soda, 0.074 to 0.075; sulphate of < potasea traces. Gases in solution—oxygen, 1.29; nitrogen, 12.17; carbonic acid, 16.54, being 30 parts per 1.000 in yolume. From the above tabulation it can be readily seen how casily it would be for one or more of These same rod-like active bodies" } way of building a street to stand or last any ita constituents to be vitiated, making the milk unhealthy. If milk should prove to be the trac antidote for the voison of acarlatina, the knowledge of it would be the greatest bicssing ever given the human race. To have the most perfect food that a child can eat, be ‘at the same time 2 pro- phylactic for the:most malignant and deadly scourge that the human race has ever been af- flicted with, is too good almost to be true. But now that we have aclew to its wonderful vir- tues, it is to be hoped that the profession will loose no time in proving its truth or falsity. Let those who are inclined to iaugh at the idea of milk being a prophylactic in scarlatina, go to the various plates where the manufacture of lead is carried on, especially those that manufacture white lead, where the workmen are terribly afflicted with lead colies, ete. It is only in the last few years that they have learned that the constant daily use of a milk dict is almost an absolute prophylactic against Iead-polsoning. Now, if milk will prevent the action.of the poison of lead, where the system is so thoroughly and constantly saturated with it, so as to prevent its toxic action, why may it not prevent the poison that produces scariatina from acting, - when there is not the one-millionth part as_ much of the contagion absorbed as there fs of lead in its manufacture. Milk, in arresting the deadly poison of lead, teaches us a great lesson, viz.: that we are not to look for the antidote of scarlatina among the most deadly poisons, but in some of the more simple and useful agents that God bas so boun- tifully given us; and it is our duty to search until the prophylactic is found. The last four months I have used nothing else as a prophylac- tic but a milk diet for every member of the family who had not had the disease, and, so far, not one that has used the milk dict has taken scarlatina. Iwish the profession to distinctly understand that I do not say as a positive: fact * that milk is a certain and sure prophylactic against scarlatina, but I believe the evidence fn its favor is so abund- antand convincing that I am justified in giving ing it to the world as a fuct. And 1 call upon all’ scientific men, and especially the citizens of Chicago, to give it an honest and fair trial ve- fore placing it on the shelf with the sulpho- carbolate of soda and ihe long list of remedies that have proved utter failures in arresting the ravages of this disease. Statisties have shown that the internal ad- ministration of disinfectants and antiseptics is utterly useless In this disease, and the same muy be said regarding the best sanitary and by- ienic conditions which have been brought to ear on the disease. The sweetest homes, the best-drained cities, the purest country air, all have failed to suppress or niitigate 1t3 malig- nancy. When such facts 2s the above stare us in the face, ought we to lose any time in testing: the merits of a substance which has more evi- dence in its favor than can be produced in favor of vaccination as a prophylactic avainst smail- pox, especially. when this same substance is the best food tuat children or adults can usc? All substances that bavé been recom- mended. and used a3 prophylactics — have been poisons that would more gor less destroy Miality and break down the tissues of the body, so that iu one reuse of the word they would prepare the system to take the disease instead bf preventung it. Especially does this apply to the sulpho-carbolate of soda, the dose being so large it must produce toxico- logical effects. Not so with milk. It builds the system up and puts it in the best possible shape to resist discase, ‘The practical question now arises, What kind ot milk shall be used, and how shall we use it? Chemically, the various kinds of milk ditfer so Lttle from that of the hbumau that in all proba- bility we can‘use any kind that is the most con- venicut to be had, and that will be either from the cow or goat. Tam inclined to believe that in large cities, where pure cuw’s mili is so hard to procure, condensed milk is the best form to use. Its purity and perfect preservation (es- pecially the goats milk that comes from Switzer- land) isa great desideratum. It can be pre- pared just as wanted for use, and thus always be fresh. Ihave ordered, according to the age of the child, from one-half piut to one pint at each meal, three times a day, and more if the child would take it. A full milk diet would be better. Where milk disacrees the aduition of a teaspoon- ful of lime water to the pint of milk will act salutary in many cases. I would suggest to those that canuot sccure ive thatthe milk can be preserved about as well by simply enveloping the dish in which the milk is kept in a wet flannel or towel, from which evaporation will go on constantly and keen up a sufficient degree of cold to preserve it mostly equal to ice.

Cuicaco, July 18.—From your issue for Tues- day I learn that the County Board in its session last Monday adopted a. resolution from the Committee on Jails aud Jail Accounts to the effect that the attention of the foreman of the present Grand Jury and the presiding Judge of the Criminal Court should be drawn to the crowded condition of the County Jail, said Committee, at the same time, adding: “That this state of things exists owing to the fact that neither the State’s Attorney nor the recert Grand Juries had given proper attention to jail vases either in their hearing or trial.” As a member of the tast Grand Jury I protest in the sharpest terms against such uncalled for and reckless accusation from a set of persons who have neither common sense nor knowledge enough themselves to understand the matter.

We worked hard and diligently to try to getthrough with all the accumulated business, and suz- ceeded also; Mr. Webber, the Assistant State’s Attorney, reporting to us that there were no more cases for the term. His Honor Judge Buoth discharged the jury with thanks for their good and faithful work, and the report has circulated in the papers, but, notwithstanding these facts, the named committee of ignoramuses undertake to throw the blaine for the crowded jail upon the State’s Attorney and the Grand Jury. Every citizen of Chicago knows, or ought at Teast to know, how faithful and hard the present State’s Attorney, as well as his as- sistant, Mr. Webber, are working to push the different cases to a speedy end; but very few understand or can apprehend the thousands of obstacles that are thrown in their way, and which have to be surmounted before the end can be reached. None, indeed, had a better chance to find out the fatts about these impli- cated matters than the members of the County Board, who come together dailv, and assemble under the sameroof; but, instead of encouraging these tivo men, who work for the interest of the city as well as the county under their tedious and toilsome labor to mete out justice to every- body, the County Board has seen fit to insult them, thereby depriving them if possible of their countrymen’s good will and moral sup- port,—this County Board that lives and thrives by squandering the public's money; enriching themsclyes, witha few honorable exceptions. Mr. Fitzgerald, le chevalier sans peur act sansrc- proche, Mesers. Ayras, Senne, and Gunther. The rest I for my part would be glad to send to Jol- iet for lifetime, and, as sure as 1 know I shall die, T know I shall live lone cnouzh to sce at Jeast some of them brought there. N. B. Stora. ere OUR STREETS AND PAVEMENTS, . To the Editor of The Tribune, Cmicaco, July 13.—It is evident that some- thing has got te be done towards improving the way and manner of construction of our streets, and as there are various notions from various sources being recommended through the press, permit me to explain one of my notions for the consideration of the public. The peculfarity of our soil is one of the great difficulties in the great length of time when made of the wooden blocks placed immediately on: the ground, as is the custom now to do, Now, there are millions and millions of feet of the finest of hemlock timber that is being only cut for the tan-bark in Western Michigan. This timber can be delivered in Chicago tor $6 or less per 1,000 feet; cut into. two and one-half-inch thick plank, all precisely twelve “feet lone. With this. first plank the street lengthways on their bearings to cach twelve feet of the same material, just xrading the street to the proper grade and shape required. The object in mak- ing the sections trelve feet is, that when gas, water, or sewer pipe is to be attached to the nai, & whole section of this foundation shall be removed for the purpose and again replaced. Oa this planking nlay be used the cedar or pine blocking in the usual manner, or macadam will stand en such a foundation. in narrow streets, and may take the place of wooden blocks. The hemlock plank laid on the ground and always kept wet or damp, and not exposed to the air, will last for many’ rears, This foundation being so strong and of even surface, Yt will keep the street surface equal, so it will prevent the soft soil from working upwards in the spring of the year while. earth is thaw- ing out below. One thick lank is certainly. better’ than two thin “ones, with a damp joint between them. Six-inch cedar or pine blocks laid on this foundation will, in my judgment, last much longer than cight or even ten-inch Infd in the usual manner } on the dare cround, rotting out at one end, and wearlpg out at the other. No sinking in spots or unevenness of surface could’ possibly occur. . The best of the material for this would be but 2 trifle more than the cight-inch blocks, owlug to the remarkable cheapness of the hemlock plank for the foundation. Batuanp. $<: Across Persian Territory. New York Tribune, The Turkish column which marched north from Van to attack the garrison at Bayazid and sever the communication. of the Russian left wing, either went around the head of the lake and struck the main road at Dyaddin, or else ndvanced to the Persian frontier, and passed north to Bayazid.. If the latter route was taken, the Turks traversed Persian. territory for per- hays a distance of fifteen miles.. The Russians cannot complain, however, for their left wing in marching from’ Erivan to Bayazid could not scale Mount Ararat, which is over 16,000 feet high, but was compelled to take a circuitous route through Persian territory.
