How to Keep wasatestee a Healthy ity. APPEAL OF HEALTH OFFICER TOWNSHEND. WASHINGTON, D. €., August 27, 1878. To the People of the District: Upon you, one and all, I would impress the necessity of throwing the safeguard of cleanli ness about your homes. To you I appeal for assistance in rendering an epidemic in our amidst impossible. Let the picture of distress Prevailing in the scourged cities of tne Missis- sippi Vailey be a warning to each of you to Teaye no spet about your premises which might become a foothold for yellow fever, or disease in any form. We do not apprehend danger at present, nor do we desire to excite unnecessary alarm. Yet none cau prophecy what aday may bring forth. and while our | city is in comparatively good sanitary condi- tion—a paradise compared with some of the eities af the south,— yet there is always room for improvement, and searcelya family among us who cannot contribute a mite toward that improvement. Look around you. Is there | not some condition of your house, yard, out- | house, drainage or surroundings, which might be remedied or bettered? The morbifie agent to which the disease of yellow fever is due, depends for its existence and elaboration on | atmospPeriec air, moisture and filth; the two | former we cannot control: the latter ean be | avoided or removed. Is there no spot about | your premises which you a > Perhaps | there is semething you consider of smalicon- | sequence, and to which you have paid no at- | tention, some hittle habit to whieh you and your neighbor are addicted whereby a nui- Sance is unconsciously created. The one pan of slop, dish or wash water thrown from the kitchen door into the yard } amounts to but little; it is soon absorbed ; but the continuance of the practice day by day soon saturates the soil, the multiplied parti- eles of animal and vegetable matter contained in this foul water decay and throw off offen- sive odors and poisonous pases which yitiate the atmosphere and sow the seeds of disease One potato, tomato or other vegetable thrown on the pile of ashes or debris in one corner of the yard is a small matter, but the one added daily or houriy soon make it a foul, offensive mass. The clear, pure water dripping from your hydrant, if not properly conveyed away, soon forms a pool and becomes stagnant aud offensive. So we might continue to enumer- ate. If there is anything which constitutes a nuisance on your premises, remove it at onze. Ventilate your house, and enc your cel- far (if you have one) well. If there is mate- Fial of any kind decaying in your ceilar, or accumulating mould, remove it. If your yard is filthy, clean it. If your privy is offensive, dis- infect it. Clean the gutters in front of your own premises. If your premises are only sup- plied with surface drainage, keep that drain clean and disinfect it occasionally. Do not allow foul weeds to accumulate, to fall and ecay in your yard. See that all connections with the public sewer are trapped and no foul odors are escaping. Have your garbage re- moved regularly. If the collector is negleet- | Tul, notify this gfice. Whitewash and sweeten = fences. sheds and outbutidings, Those Who are unable to purchase disinfectants can Have them supplied upon application to this office. Use dry earth in your privie: s chloride of lime in cellars and drains. use quicklime in privies or stables; it liberates | the ammonia and increases the offense. In short, use every meaus in your power to | mises in good sanitary con- ited force at the command of the Health Officer renders frequent inspection ef all premises in the District impossible. Nor Should it be necessary for the people to be compelled to keep clean. The health depart- ment is using every effort in its power in behalf of the community, and appeals to the | intelligence of that community to render its assistance.

The District Commissioners to-day made an order “that alley assessments for special i:n- provements shail be made on the same basis as other special assessments, and shall be ad- justed by the frontage on the alley.” INSANE PERSONS WHO ARE A CHARGE TO THE DISTRICT. In response to a communication from Dr. J. W. H. Lovejoy complaining of the publicity given to the name of one of his patients who upon his recommendation was, by the Com- missioners, sent to the Insane Asylum, the Commissioners express regret that the news- papers published the name and the circum- stances, and they also say “In the case of the majority of indigent patients sent to the hos- ital by the Commissioners, the circumstanc: fo not call for a strict observance of privacy, but rather the reverse. Many such patienis are thrown on the District through wiilful abandonment by relatives, whose sensitive- ness is hardly worth consideration, while others are utterly unknown and unable to give information about themseives, and whose friends, if they have any, are more likely to learn of their whereabouts through a news- | aper notice than otherwise. In many cases. | jowever, in which the Commissioners hav j been informed or have suspected that a con- | dition of affairs existed similar to that in the case of your patient, they have prevented publicity. The annoyance you and the friends of your patients have suffered would have been avoided if, when making application for her admission you had expressed a desire for con- cealment from the public, as is frequently done | by the friends of applicants and aiways re- | spected by the Commissioners.” PROTECTION FROM FIRE tN THEATERS. In reply to a communication from Lnspeet of Buildings John S. Damrell,of Boston, Mass. in relation to the question of iron drop cur tains being placed in theaters, and asking an opinion on the subject, Inspector Enutwisie cussed in this city,but nothing definite at and no action taken in the case ef t in this city. The suggestion made by him (Mr. E.) was to “line the stage side of the proce- nium arch and boxes up tothe peak of the roof and to make a drop curtain of tin, riveted in place of being soldered, and to be dropped in case of fire; tin being, untiloverheated, a non- conductor, would, when dropped, give the au- dience time to vacate. Tin can be handled | much easier than iron. The experience here (and we have had several theaters burned) is that the fire from combusiibie materials on the stage passes immediately into the roof over the auditorium more rapidly than through the curtain opening, causing a rapid progress of he fre. I have rebuilt all the theaters here after the fires, and have see: much of the causes and effects, but should be pleased to have opinions of other authorities upon my suggestion.” BAD Roaps. A delegation of citizens and tax payers, re- siding south of the Eastern Branch, headed by Mr. oay Hardy, called upon the District Commissioners to-day to represent the condi- tion of the county roads in that section of the District, and urge that something be done im- mediately on the principle that “‘a stiteh in time saves nine,” as they are fast becoming impassable in consequence of the recent heavy storms. They wished it distinctly un- derstood that while they regarded the selec- tion of the present supervisor of roads for that district an unfortunate one, they de- elined to make any charges against him, but simply asked that the Commissioners detail an experienced Tipe to go over the roads, note their condition, and make a report. The Commissicrers promised to do this. POLICEMEN AS FOOD INSPECTORS.

Green, 11 years of age.who represents that he left his home, at 110 North Division street, Buffaio, on Monday of last week, and “beat” his way on the railroad here. He followed the President’s carriage to the Soldier’s Home several times, and Sunday afternoon went to the cottage, and was so per- sistent that the President consented to see him. The boy said he was traveling to sup- port his mother by selling pictures, but he had reached this city, and, Bore wits friends or money, was unable to get home again. The President gave him $1 and ordered that he be accommodated for the night, and. pe eek he hung about the White House until he became anuisance. He has a weakness for kissing any one who will talk withhim. A peyeician who examined him says that he is slightly in sane in that direction. Chariey remarked that | the same opinion had been expressed by doc. tors in New York, Philadelphia, and other cities, but that otherwise he was’ sound as dolla Major Morgan heard this mornii from the mother of Green, in Buffalo, and he will be sent home to-day.

AN UNEASY Guost is on its rounds in a pee a English vale known as the Rhondda. t midnight the lodge-keeper of a graveyard was awakened from his slumbers by a rustling noise and a knocking at his door. ‘The lodge- keeper suspected at once that his visitor was a ghost, and it was not until the knock had been repeated that he mustered courage to ask who was there. The visitor replied, giv- ing the name of a person who died two Tous ago. and whose mortal remains were lying close by. Being tremulously asked what he wanted, the oeeone visitor replied that he desired the lodge-keeper to call upon two gen- tlemen, whose names he mentioned, to re- mind them of the any he imposed upon them before he shuitied off his mortal coil. On a promise being given that his wishes would be attended to, the mysterious visitor departed, much tothe relief of the lodge-keeper. On calling on the gentlemen named according to his promise, the lodge-keeper found that they were trustees of a small amount of money left by the man personated by the ghost, and that the duty he had imposed upon them was to keep his grave clean and tidy. Ifthe trus. tees neglect their duty in future the lodge. keeper himself will make amends for their remissness rather than run the risk of renew- ing his acquaintance with the ghost. ee Oe BOSE PRINCE NAPOLEON had a narrow escape while attending an agricultural exhibition in Sweden. in company with the wb ete was examining some machinery and had ap- proached close to an engine, which oe gee edly was set in motion, and some parts of the engine caught the clothes of the Prince, who would undoubtedly have been drawn into the wheels if the King had not with great pres ence of mind instantly himself stoy ped the engine. As it was the Prince had his clothes torn to pluces. SUFFERING AMERICAN LABORERS IN BRAZIL. The schooner D. M. Anthony, Captain James McLane, from Para, Brazil, arrived at Alex- andria, Sunday.
