WANDERERS FROM JoHNSTOWN.—Two German laborers out of money end unable to speak a word of English, who had been washed out of work at Johnstown, arrived here at 6 o'clock last night. They were trying to get to Phila- delphia, and having been misdirected at Balti- more were greatly surprised when they learned they were at the capital. Sergeant McCathran offered them lodging in the station house, but they preferred to tramp along their way, and departed in the rain, ey had $5 when they left the flooded city, Notes.—On account of the heavy rain last night the benefit concert to be given at the Baptist church was postponed till Monday night next. A number of musicians from the city came over to assist in the exercises. —A lawn party for the benefit of the Johnstown sufferers will be given on the green opposite St. Eliza- beth asylum Tuesday night. Several young eit in charge.—A petition is being circulated asking the new Commissioners to car- ry out the recommendations of Capt. Symonds for the widening and raising of the Anacostia bridge.——Frank Day, a colored man, living in Hillsdale, receive: ‘8 sun-stroke in the city yesterday, and was brought home in a patrol wagon.——Mr. Harry Haggenm: ‘ker, a recent resident of Anacostia, lost $15,000 in the Seat- tle, W. T.,fire, where he was enguged in restau- rant business, ———E A Lutheran Congregation Organized. During the past two years a Lutheran Sun- day school has been in successful operation in Southwest Washington. The indications were favorable to the possible success of a congrega- tion in that section of the city, and at a meet- ing held in Potomac hall last night a new Lutheran congregation was organized, to be known as St. Mark’s. The following were chosen as a church council for the new — gation: N. Z. Seitz, J. H. Kuebling, Wm. and C. R. Botsford’as elders, John Hofman, pees A. Simmons, W. A. Liphard, and Benj. Kuehling as deacons. These officers will be regularly installed at the services on Sunday night. By the unanimous request of the ang the council was instructed to extend a call to Rev. W. H. Gotwald, D. D., as the pastor of the new congregation. twald was in at- tendance at the meeting, ‘and will ace . the call to the pastorate when formally made by the church council, The outlook for the suc- cess of this new congregation is very encourag- ing; already some sixty persons have expressed a willingness to unite, with a possible increase from the young pe: ople through confirmation. Prompt éfforts will now be made to secure a suitable place of worshij Geer Workingmen Charged With Conspiracy. The grand jury to-day reported an indict- ment against Eugene Wilson, W. E. Myers, Parker White, John Summerville, Wm. Lewis, Daniel Smith, Joseph Braxton, Henry Beverly, George Washington and John Parker for con- spiracy, the witnesses being James Thomas Reeder, James T. Barnes, and Joseph F. Hurdle, ‘The indictment sets out that on March 11 last there was a firm of Hurdle & Moore engaged as bricklayere, having in their employ the wit- ness, Reeder, as a hod-carrier at wages mutu- allwagreed upon. It charges that the defend- ants, with others unknown, on the date named, and for the purpose of injuring and annoying the firm and to force them into making 8 | Oa change in their manner of doing business, did agree and conspire to leave their employment unless Reeder was dischar; ey and in futher- ance of this combination assembled and notified Hurdle to dismiss said Reeder or they would quit work, and, being in fear, Hurdle discharged Reeder, all’ of which was, the in- oe says, to Hurdle's prejudice and in- jury. i The Law as to Sale of Liquor to Minors. This morning in the Police court a case was called to the attention of Judge Miller in which James Sullivan appeared as defendant, He was charged with selling liquor to minors. Mr. Cahill said that he would admit the facts in the case and claimed that under the law his client was not responsible, Counsel argued upon the following state of facts: Asmall colored boy named William Walker was sent to the defendant's saloon near 4th and Hstreets, sometime ago with a note from his guardian’ for a “growler” of beer. His guardian afterwards told Mr, Sullivan to let the boy have beer when he (the ) sent for it, Yesterday the boy was in Sullivan's saloon and when he came out he was seen by Policeman Fenton, who took charge of the brought the case to the atten- 3 it was not fo Menge where tlhe case woe dieeriosd: 4 ae Sense See SOMETHING ABOUT DIPHTHERIA. iTS | Suggestions as to How to Prevent its Development.

DIPHTHERIA-PRODUCING CONDITIONS. Bad sanitary arrangements favor the devel- opment and propagation of diphtheria virus.

THE INCEPTION OF DIPHTHERIA. Diphtheria is a preventable disease. Its ex- istence depends on conditions which can be controlled, It may appear in any community, but should not be allowed to develop beyond the first case or cases which make their ap- pearance. Itis probable that diphtheria al- ways originates from a special poison which develops in the person sick with it, brought about from some of the conditions above named. This special poison is given off in the breath, in expectorations from the mouth or throat and discharges from the nose, The virus has the property o: adber- ing tenaciously to objects on which it happens to alight. By reason of this the sick room, its floor, walls, furniture, and all its con- tents become infected with the disease, and continue to be so until the virus is destroyed by cleansing and fumigation ITS CONTAGIOUS QUALITIES, The disease may be carried away by any arti- cle ceming in contact with the sick and to which the virus clings by the clothing, bed- ding, eating utensils, food, toys, and also by the persons and clothing of those in attendance — the patient. Another important fact is t the virus is very long-lived; articles and remises infected with it may communicate the isease for at least several weeks. It may be transported by them with great facility from one locality to another and to an indefinite distance. It can be contracted by inhalation of air containing the disease germs coming di- rectly from the sick or from articles infected by them. It can be also communicated by articles passing from mouth to mouth, such as ore, spoons, &c. The articles by which may be communicated may have esol] infected weeks before and possibly at some locality quite remote. It can be contracted by inhaling the air of sewers, cesspools, cel- lars, or any damp, foul, illy-ventilated place in which the germs chance to become planted, Any locality is liable to have diphtheria brought into it, It will not continue long, however, if the conditions upon which its ex- istence mainly depends is removed. If the sick are strictly secluded, the disease germs de- stroyed, and the sanitary arrangements cleaned and disenfected, danger is averied. GENERAL PRECAUTIONS. All should avoid sources of contagion, Well chiidren had better be removed entirely from the house, as children contract diphtheria more readily than adults. They should be kept under close observation, and if diphtheria develops, brought home again so as not to establish a new center. Persons remaining in the house should not go to school, church or other en= eral gatherings, nor to any other house wl there nat rop-d persons. If a case ‘hassecured a foothold in a locality, every case of sore throat should be regar with suspicion, and excluded from contact with others until a yes aoe! of theaffected partcan be made by ouses should be kept clean, dry and well ventilated. Particular attention ‘should be ated to cellars. The premises shouldbe well ined; all accumulation of garbage, or de- composing vegetable or animal matter kept strictly cleared away, and disinfectants ly used, SUGGESTIONS FOR DISINFECTING. During its occupancy as a sick-room the above precautions should be carefully observed; at the termination of the quarantine the room should be tightly closed and with all ite con- tents thoroughly fumigated. Arrange the con- tents so that their surfaces can be readily reached by the disinfecting gas. The room should remain closed for twenty-four hours, after which it and its contents should be well aired for several days. The wood work should be well peer pate ——_ > to) of windows and an infectants applied. Where es case has been malignant or proved fatal it would be well to rewhitewash the ceiling and remove and renew the wall-papering.

Thousands Have Already Left and Others Awaiting Transportation. The Panama canal collapse continues the topic on the isthmus, not that as matters stand it effects the “cmal,” but the collapse has affected all here and produced great suffering. Thousands, as already re+ ported, have already left, but there are othera who yet require transportation. Of course there are always “the more hopeful,” and these have remained up to the last, but they are now moving off as fast as means of trans rt are afforded thom by that e-hearted —_ national charity — which hes led countries and islands to remove their destitute fellow-countrymen from the isthmus. In all upward of 9. have been sent back to Jamaica, and so in pro- portion those of other countries have been re- moved by the “international” feeling of charity which has moved off our “international canal” workers, Matters are, of course, aa dyll as they car be, and the city of Panama bas resumed that quict appearance it wore over twenty years ago, when one or two steamers would visit the port in a week, More steamers arrive now, but owing to the quick connections now offered Passengers are not kept here days and weeks as they were in the earlier days of Panama, The suppression of trains on the Panama railroad and the evtng out of two or three of the intermediate stations has had no percep- tible effect on receipts, and as the line of work is now a scene of complete desolation, and few occupants are to be seen, the traffic is incon- siderable. ‘The number of sales by auction of houschold furniture, even in the city of Panama, is un- precedented, and all merchandise is disposed Pf fo for much below its \alne.

John Meehan went into David Nagel’s saloon in East Washington last Sunday, and according to his statement purchased several beers, Meehan complained to the police and had Mr. Nagel before the Police Court this morning for selling liquor on Sunday. Meehan and a wit ness named Cox testified against Nagle. “How many saloons were you in on Sunday?” asked Lawyer Cahill of Meehan, “I was in a number of them,” he replied. “Whom did you see in the saloons?” asked Mr. Cahill. “Oh, I saw lots of people, and I saw you in one of them, Mr. Cahill. You were talking about Ireland.” “In what saloon did yeu see me?” asked the indignant attorney. “I don’t know the man’s name,” the witness a. “but the saloon is near the National ar fine of $20 was imposed. —— a DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. THE NORMAL SCHOOL QUESTION. The Commissioners this morning received another letter from ex-Trustee James H. Smith, relative to the appointment of school teachers to the colored public schools not graduates from the Normal school. He refers to the late dis- cussion of the subject by the school board as a superficial discussion, and says that there is no disputing the facts that Prof. Gregory made three appointments, neither of which were graduates of the Normal school. He says that inasmuch as the facts have been admitted the question before the Commissioners is whether or not the law authorizes the action on the part of these trustees. He then goes into the law of the subject, and gives a history of the Normal school; of how the pupil entering the school in question was obliged to sign acontract that she Tonld devote herself $0 the work of teaching for a period of two years after completing the prescribed course of study. There is, he claims, an implied contract on the part of the District to give employment to the graduate, He says further that he hopes the Commis- sioners will look into the subject thoroughly, as the colored schools of the District are badly managed, and a great many persons are anxiously waiting aud hoping that the present Board a f Commissioners will afford them some relief. — Thomas West and His Pistol. Thomas West, a young colored man, wasa conspicuous figure in the Police Court to-day. He wore a loud calico shirt and broad striped pants, but no coat. He was charged with carry- ing a deadly and dangerous weapon, to wit, “a loaded pistol.” It was shown that West has been living in Hines’ alley, near 3d and I streets northwest, with a woman named Kate Garnes, Sometime ago they had a falling out because peared.
