THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1898. MENACED BY LACK OF ANITATION Citizens of Sacramento@dre Fully Alive to Their Danger.

'WIN F. SMITH. At the present time there are many cases of fever in the city of Sacramen- to, and they are increasing daily. Most these are typhoid. Dr. Henderson, secretary of the State Board of Health, speaking generally of the disease, o= State. and their children, t life of the present generatio: health and happiness in this ED In places where the supply of water from rivers or wells all drinking ter should be boiled, and it is a wise w precaution during an epidemic to have the milk scalded, as the prevalence of typhoid in London in 1873 was clearly traced to the ccntaminationn of the milk by the excreta of a man who had died of typhold on a milk farm. The period of incubation usually extends over two s, being preceded by loss of appetite, languor, headache, dizzi- ness and bleeding from the nose in many instances. From the tenth to the twelfth day the rash usually appears. v slight, be and unless care is entirely overlooked. 4 pin’s head, disappearing on but reappearing as soon as' sure is removed. In favorable cases the fourth week finds a change for the better. The temperature falls, the symptoms are alleviated, the sleep becomes more natural and the appetite grows stronger. ““After the thirtieth day, in the ma- jority of e no more spots appear, the fever is at an end, and the patient passes slowly into a stage of convales- cence. In typhoid fever relapses are common, and dangerous complications, especially of the lungs, may ensue. If the ulceration of the intestines pro- ceeds so far that they are perforated, dedth ensues almost invariably, and in all cases the mortality is high. The main chance of recovery depends upon careful and scientific nursing, under the direction of a skilled physician.” Dr. Henderson believes with others taking immediate steps in | Sacramento is due to the consumption of river water, thing should be done to remedy the present dangerous practice of using the streams as a receptacle for offal and sewage. “I am glad,” said he, “to know that The Call has taken up the question in the vigorous manner it has. How in the world can one expect municipali- ties to observe the sanitary laws of man and nature when we permit the State to set such bad examples? I be- lieve that not only should the sewage tem of Folsom be changed, but steps should be taken to suppress the same | practice in the city of Marysville, and, re- | for that matter, the city of Sacramen- to, in asking others to sending down these impure deposits, should herself desist. The Call has taken up a question which is of vital importance to every locality in the State, and I sincerely hope that before the agitation ceases the people through- out the great valleys now drained by the large rivers may awaken to the peril which is threatening every com- munity, as the State increases in popu- lation.” There are some who find fault with the expose by The Call of this all-ab- sorbing question, but they are few and far between. While a silurian here and there will tell of having drunk the water for thirty or forty years, and others intimate that such information going abroad will have a tendency to keep people away from the city, the majority of Sacramento’s citizens are praising the efforts of The Call, and declare that the health of the people who are here is of greater concern than the prospective increase of population. | “Our first duty,” said Dr. Hender- son, “is to those already here, and until we have properly defended them | against the ravages of disease we can- not expect others to come.” LEARNED MEN IN DRAMATIC ROLES Members of the Stanford Fac- ulty Appear Before the Footlights. “All Who Is Who?” Presented Successfully in En- in a Fogj or, cina Gymnasium. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. Dramatic Club to-night made its sec- ond appearance on the stage in Encina gymnasium and repeated the success it scored at the Holloween Kirmess last fall. It produced Williams' catch- ing farce, “All in a Fog; or, Who Is Who?” and showed that the ability of the membe. does not all run in the line of giving lectures and conducting reci- tations, but that they have dramatic talent that will at least captivate Stanford audience.

Preceding the farce the sym- phony orchestra, under Professor Young, ga'e several selections; a flute solo was played by B. A. Olshausen, and Ernest Lent. the celebrated ’cellist from Washington, D. C., rendered sev- eral of his choice selections, his “Trau- merei” pleasing the audience above the others. The entertainment was well patron- ized. It was for the benefit of the stu- dent piano fund. CALIFORNIA INJURED BY PETTY DISPUTES. Delegation in Congress Unable to Agree Upon Any Man for Any Position. WASHINGTON, May 6.—The President told Senator White that on the passage of the sundry civil bill he would select seven of the best men he could find to act as American directors or commissioners at the Paris Exposition, and they would se- lect a director-general from among their own members. The Californians naturally expect one of the seven directors to come from the Pa-. cific Coast, but as the California delega- tion will probably (as usual) be unable to agree on any one candidate, the honor may fall to Oregon or Washington. 1t is currently reported here in the Cali- fornia colony that Mr. de Young may not be a candidate for director, but will try again for the Senate. g Nothing is known definitely about the brigadiership. but it is the general opinion among the Californians that no Califor- nian will get the prize, as there are so many candidates and the California Con- gressional delegation is divided.

SCORVY FINDS MANT VICTIMS The Dawson Hospital Is Filled With Afflicted Miners. Pneumonia Also Epidemic in the Metropolis of the Klondike. Disappearance of the Snow Reveals a Shocking Condition of the Streets. Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, May 6.—Two Dawson let- ters, dated March 29 and 30, have been received from John Williams and C. C. Pagett. Williams writes that scurvy is epidemic at Dawson, the hospital and several cabins being full of pa- tients. Pneumonia is also prevalent. There have been a number of deaths from each disease. Many more deaths from scurvy are considered certain be- fore the miners are able to escape down the river in June. The rapid spread of scurvy is not | thought strange at Dawson, consider- | ing the utter lack of variety of food that | has prevailed in many cabins for months, together with the poorcooking, which results from the hurry and in- | conveniences of a miner’s life. Some | miners who were short of provisions | last fall, but determined to remain, | had, when Williams wrote, been living | for several weeks on bacon, beans and flour, fried in fat. The little cemetery laid out a year ago is being enlarged to meet increased demands upon its | | space. | “Fine, clear \weather prevailed dur- | ing March, causing the snow to disap- | pear rapidly, and revealing the unsan- itary condition of Dawson, which is expected to result in typhoid fever and other diseases when the hot sun of May and June beats down upon the filthy streets and by-ways of the Klon- dike metropolis. I1f the warm weather | continues, Pagett writes, the ground | would be bare by April 15 or 20. Pagett says further: The food scare is pretty prices are high.

Hutchin- | son of Hawall. The bride-elect is the Fong, a rich Chines merchant of Honolulu. The Mohican is now l}‘ln{ at Honolulu, having arrived | there on March 19. It was only a matter | of a few days when Dr. Thompson met Mrs. Hutchinson and immediately fell in loye with her. Dr. Thompson is 23 years old, while his fiance is sald to be some years his senior. She was married ten years ago, and is said_to have been divorced from her hus- band. Her sister, Henretta, was married in December, 1893, to Commander William Henry Whiting of the United States ves- sel Alliance. This wedding occasioned widespread comment at the time. Com- mander Whiting was 50 years old and his bride 17. Another sister, Ella, became the wife of Willlam Henshall, 4 lawyer of California. | daughter of Ah ————— LOSES HIS LIFE IN A GRASS VALLEY MINE. Albert Rowe Shockingly Mangled by the Premature Explosion of a Blast. GRASS VALLEY, May 6.—A distressing accident occurred this afternoon at the Massachusetts Hill mine by which Albert Rowe, 24 vears of age, lost his life, and Alfred Pascoe was seriously Injured. The men were at work at the 1400-foot level. They had finished drilling holes and filled them with powder. Rowe was spitting a fuse and about to make his escape when the blast went off. Rock was blown in every direction. Rowe was struck by several pleces and mangled lrigh!fulli". His body was taken to the home of his parents by fellow workmen.

Harrold, his wife, on an assigned claim of Oblinger Bros. « Co. of Lancaster, Pa. W. P. Harrold was formerly a member of the insolvent firm of Harrold Bros. of San Francisco, and Snyder claims to hold judgment against him for $14,9% 65.

One Feature the Kindly Rela- tion Between Teacher and Pupil. Close of the San Rafael Institute After a Very Successful Session. Epectal Dispatch to The Call. SAN RAFAEL, May 6.—The Oakland schools are all right. That is the unanimous verdict of the various com- mittees of the Teachers’ Institute that visited the Oakland schools yesterday. All this morning’s session was given up to the reports of the chairman of these visiting committees. A crystallization of these reports shows that the teachers were all much impressed with what they saw in the Athens of the West. The disciplinary systems in vogue there are deemed both original and practical, one of the pleasantest features being the kindly relation between teacher and pupil An item recelvifig special commenda- tion was the numberless forcible ways in which patriotic ideas were incul- cated. Considerable amusement was fur- nished the institute by some wag who gained access to the courtroom yester- day in the teachers’ absence and filled the blackboards with paris mutuel wagers on the Jeffries-Sharkey boxing match. Such expressions as paid according to the decision of the referee,” ‘‘Usurpers of seats will be promptly éjected,” etc., abounded. This finally attracted the eagle eye of Professor Boke, who facetiously in- quired of Superintendent Furlong if the institute was to be coached in the ele- ments of fistic bouts. And then, amid general laughter, the blackboards had their faces ‘‘turned toward the wall.” Professor J. B. Davidson delivered an interesting lecture on the course of reading teachers should take. He be- lieved that too much of this is done along other than psychological lines. A short discussion by the institute fol- lowed. Considerable attention was paid to the formation of a history club for col- lecting State and county material. Discussion was finally concluded by se- a committee to gather information and organize a club. The intention was to end this session of the institute in the morning, but an accumulation of business was found to necessitate a meeting in the afternoon. It was begun with a vocal solo from “II Trovatore,” by Professor Charles N. Watson. who was encored.and sang Love Is a Queer Thing,” from the opera “Said Pasha.” After settling all unfinished business the institute adjourned with the sing- ing of “‘Auld Lang Syne.” The teach- ers say they have had a pleasant and beneficial meeting. Most of them de- parted home—wimmtnnooq PRINTERS ON AN OUTING. «“Nine-Hour Camp” Established Not Far From Camp Taylor. CAMP TAYLOR, May 6.—The members of San Francisco Typographical Union No. 21 may be out on a strike, but they are having a “gay old time” just the came. About twenty-five of them are camped on Lagunitas Creek, near here, walting for the word to go to work so con- fidently expected. The boys have tents, bedding, cooking utensils and a commis- sary that would delight the old Roman gourmands. A detall of fishermen go out every day to catch enough fish to satisfy appetites all around.

Indignation Aroused at Visalia Over a Marriage Performed by a Jus- tice of the Peace. VISALIA, May 6—Much indignation | was aroused among the residents of this | place this morning when it was learned | that the authorities had permitted the | marriage of a little child of 10 years to a | six-footer 38 vears old to be solemnized here last night. i The name of the tiny bride is Alice Adams, and the groom Is James Hitcheock. Both are from Kern County. One strange feature of the transaction 1s that the little girl's father, Arthur Ad- ams, was along and sanctioned the union. The license was not issued until legal ad- vice had been obtainegd. A local Justice of the Peace performed the ceremony. The father's excuse for allowing the marriage was that his divorced wife was endeavoring to keep the little girl in a disreputable house in Bakersfield, and he took this plan to get Alice away from her mother. Hitchcock and his baby bride | and father-in-law left for their homes | this morning. There fs strong talk of prosecuting Hitcheock for marrying the child. | TRAINS COLLIDE 0 THE MOUNTAIN SIDE. Twelve Cars Roll Down a Canyon and Several Truinmen Are Injured. | REDDING, May 6.—A collision occurred | on the Iron Mountain railroad, operated | between the famous Shasta County cop- per producer and the big smelting plant | at Keswick, this afternoon. At the point where the accident occurred the | road is built on heavy grades and directly on the mountain side, but fortunately the engines were pushing their trains, thus avoiding danger to life and lessening the loss of property. Twelve cars rolled down the mountain side and lay in a heap in the canyon. David Wells, a brakeman, | had his leg badly crushed, and Al Gump- | ton and Fred Brooks, trainmen, suffered | injuries. The collision resulted because | orders were given the trains from con- flicting sources. AR e CALIFORNIANS IN NEW YORK. NEW YORK, May 6.—Dr. P. W.
