I he appearauce of typhoid fever as a'l epidemic is the occasion of no llt-ii, alarm In Wayne, thirteen cases of tin disease having alreadj occurred li; a small district 00 the southeast border of the town within the last few weeks. The matter was brought, to the knowledge uf the State Board of Health on Friday last by Inspector Plensants. who lives in the Infected district On Saturday Dr. It. I.. Pit held. Assistant Bacteriologist of the State Hoard of Health.visited the place and made a careful examination. it appears from the facts already ascertained that ail the eases but one lane appeared in a district south of Weal Wayne avenue, and within two squares of a large stone quarry, the greater number occurring on Highland avenue, which Is rather closely built with small frame houses. Dr. PIHiold attributes the spread of the disease n, the water supply. There are .hroi wi.ter systems In Wayne one supplied by artesian wells in the high hilU on the north, and operated by the power plant at the electric light station; the second supplies several towns on the line of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and the third is supplied from a spring and two dug walls situated within the In-fiii. ii district, it was demonstrated that all the Infected li n sea used the water from the last nan, d supply, the single patient. More referred to as living outside the district having often visited It and drunk of the water. Dr. Pith" hi took samples of the wat-er from the spring and two wells and started cultures from them, which will be developed in a few days for exami-nation as to the character of the bac-teria contained. A preliminary chem-ical analysis showed a .large percent-age of chlorine, usually indicative of sewage contamination. The surface of the ground in the neighborhood of the wells was pretty well coated with stab le manure. The significant feature in the his U'ry of the epidemic Is that the first typhoid fever case was that of a man returned from Europe with the dlsesai and was treated at a house, whose dialnnge pipe runs within forty feet of the spring, and one of the wells from which the water supply of the small district referred to Is obtained and that the disease showed itself tliiougliniit the neighborhood thus sup-plied shortly afterwards. Also that no cases have appeared In districts supplied by the other two water sys-tems. The facts as above stated are confirmed by physicians attending some of the cases. Six patients are being treated at Bryn Mnwr Hospital one was taken to West Chester Hospit-al and the others have been treated al their homes. The people using the viater supposed to be Info-ted have been instructed to boll it before using It for domestic purposes.

The suit brought by Jason Sexton, one of the Montgomery county Repub-lican members of the Legislature, against James S. McCarthy, adminis-trator of the estate of William M. Slngerly, deceased, was tried before Judge McMlchael and a jury, In Room E of Court No. 3. The action was brought to recover on twopromissory notes, for 13000, dated July 1, 1889, payable on demand, and for $1300, dat-ed January 3, 1893, payable in one day. Both notes were made by Mr Slngerly payable to Mr. Sexton. On the first not $675 was paid. Mr. Sexton had charge of Mr. Slng-erly's farms in Springfield towtshlp Montgomery county, and the loans were made to Mr. Slngerly by Mr. Sex-ton while he was acting In that capac-ity. The jury rendered a verdict in favor of Mr. Sexton for $4030.02.

The spectators were kej I ii tne highest pitch of excitement during the entire contest. To the spectators' surprise Mom. appeared, for the first time this season :m the local floor, attired in a b.iskol ball suit. That the local team was de-termined to win if it was in the powei of the players can be seen from th ilne-upMoore and Ruth going to attack both men playing a remarkably good (ana In the first half the visitors played n good game, making thing quite Inter-ring for Conshohocken. but in tin second half they seemed lo have a very bad case of stage fright or weak n. ss of the mind for they could 1 iav< ji st as easily stopped an express train b.' standing In front of it as I hey couli have checked Moore and Ruth from scoring. The visitors had their full team with them and the only reason iIny did not play a better game is tha' they were completely outplayed at every point of the game. The only change different from what appeared OB the circular was Wallace going to attack in the, place of Barber am! Relck taking Wallace's place at de fense. The visitors' faces are t;ulti familiar In this borough, with the -s ceptlon of BomhofT, and they were gieeted with a hearty cheer from thi house-full of spectators as they step-ped on the floor. They responded by throwing goals In the easiest manner and there war-not a person In the hall who expected to Bee the home team defeat them by one half the score as they rolled up on them. They practiced for about five or ten minutes when Umpire Wilson appeared on the floor and gave the sig-nal to get ready to play, and a few sec-onds later the teams were battling foi superiority with all Ihe might that was In them. The game went along very smoothly for about five minutes when a foul was called on Lang. Adams throwing tin goal amid the hissing of the biggest majority of those present. After this the rules of the game seemed to bo put aBlde for another game, the players on both teams committing one foul aftei another. Shortly afterward Borahofl fouled I-nng and Moore failed lo throw tne goal. In a short time Bomhofl again fouled Lang this time Custei throwing the goal. After a few min utes more of hard playing Cox near!) set the crowd wild by caging the ball fiom the field, thus making the scon 3 to 1. After an intermission of a fee more moments Custer again caged tin sphere twice on fouls by Wallace and Adams, but failed to score on Relck'i n.isplay. while Adams scored ol Moore's offense making the score 5 to 2 at the end of the first half. After a good rub-down the teams again appeured with the same men who had so bravely fought In the first half and If any one would have said that Conshohocken would score 18 p ilnti In this half he would have been laughed at. although the locals had played up to the standard In the first half of the game It was not deemed in any of the spectators minds that they would roll up the number of points they did. But the visitors seemed determined to win whether by rough means or not and after play had been resumed In the last half a few moments Relck and Moore were both tugging for the ball and Relck, who Is a little bit the til lest of the two men had Moore up aioundhis waist and when Umpire Wilson blew the whistle Rciok tried to injure Moore by letting him full to the iloor and In no gentle manner either.

In your Issue of December 12th. While we nil must admit the existence ol the evil complained of and recognlzo the need of surrounding the young with moral Influence in order to counteract the degrading influence of the streets, It does not follow that the plan en-dorse by Mr. Cook is the proper rem-edy. it has become the fashion In a civ-ilization In which poverty, vice, Ignor-ance and uncleanllness are deepening IB certain classes of men, to prop,is. as Mr. Cook does, to cure the evils by means of various institutions in which the benighted are brought within an atmosphere of culture and refinement. Are the masses dirty? At once es-tabllsh public baths. Is there Ignor-ance of social or political rights and duties? Found a college settlement, or start a course of lectures on ci\i, s, Do our boys run the streets? Invite them to spend their evenings at the Workingmen'8 Institute." Arc our people becoming so poor that they can not live decently or have not enough lo eat? Open a souphouso or establish a palatial ten-cent lodging house a Is being done in our big cities. In following such a course Mr. Cook may have the assurance, as is pointed out by hundreds of such social movements, of meeting with large measures of success—superficially, at least. For Is there not In each of these schemes the element of charity—of that sort of charity which tends to pauperize or at least to destroy self-reliance or initia-tive? Is there not In the seemingly cheerful statement that the "submerg-ed tenth" are "crying aloud" for more enlightenment and culture, a confes-sion that lets the cat out of the bag? If they are so much in need of civiliz-ing influences and a moral helping-hand, and know enough of what they want to give such qualification to the worthy promoters of these institutions why did they ever wait for a Carnegie to give them a library, a Drexel to found an institution, a college to es-tablish a "settlement" in their midst or a Mills to provide a hotel which in spite of Its ridiculously low charges yet pays its way? Clearly the reason why the people themselves did not supply their long-felt need was their Own poverty. And If It were estimat-ed that the cost of establishing and maintaining a proposed "Working-men's institute" would be ten dollars per year per man. for instance, nnd that In view of the poverty of the peo pie to be benefited if it were pro posed to pay ten dollars per year to each of them (for this or any other purpose) how many social reformers pulpits and editorial pens would re-frain from denouncing the proposi-tion? While we are very scrupulous about pauperizing by means of mone> doles, we are quite callous about that which money buys. And were It not for the ever-felt If not often-expressed Idea that the so-called "philanthrop-ist" has not come honestly by hit wealth and that in his "gift to hi; less fortunate fellows" he la merely returning stolen goods, the self-respecl of men would give such Institutions less encouragement At the bottom the question is ar economic one—a question of how wealth should be distributed. In its settlement, charity, though It ma> masquerade in pleasing garments, can do nothing. The world Is filled with people, who, as Count Tolstoi says, an willing to do everything for the poor except to get off of their backs, and n proposition to bring about a reign ol justice in the affairs of men Is greeted by denunciatory epithets even from those who profess to be the moral tea. hers of mankind. When those who toil secure the full returns of their labor they will be able to pro-vide for themselves all the influenceF which tend toward the development ol the Ideal human embodiment of moral character and culture. In connection with the problem which he raises, Mr. Cook admits that where the blessings of home are appreciated the children of the family are not likely to loaf about In the streets. Make It possible tnerefore, for men to provide decent. attractive homes for their families and the problem Is solved. How can this be brought about? That I to i; loth Kipling) Is "another story."

HURT BY A FALL. T. Jefferson Day, 50 yeais of Upper Dublin Township, Montgomery county, was admitted to St. Joseph's Hospital yesterday In a semi-conscious condit-ion. For a time he was unable to give his name or where he resided. In sev-eral places hiB head was deeply gashed, but the skull was not fractured. Ho appeared to be in a stupor and could say nothing of how he had been in-jured. His general appearance indi-cated that he had met with foul play. The police of the Twelth District be-wail an investigation and reported that Mr. Day, who was a stranger in the city, had slipped and fallen at Hutch- Inson Street and Olrard avenue. The physicians are of the opinion that the Injuries OOUld hardly have been caused b) a fall and the police will continue their inquiry. Later in the afternoon the ease was considered so serious that the man's family was commuicated with. In the evening his son arlved in the city and visited hm in the hospital. Later he went to the police station to find how his father had sustained his Injuries, but nothing further could be learned than he had fallen. SHOULD CURE INSANITY. At a meeting of the trustees of tho State Hospital for the Insane at Nor- .Istown, on Friday, the remarkably few inmutes discharged us cured was discussed. The trustees finally con- Oluded that a number of patients mould be discharged monthly. Dr. Stiles, of the trustees, held that there were present in that institution patients Who should be discharged. He, as well as other members of tho board, were of Uie opinion that the same trouble exists in other hospitals throughout the State. Trustees Stiles, Thomas and Billot were appointed a committee to Inves-tigate the subject. Dr. Richardson reported that there are 1120 mule patients In the hospital. Of that number 304 sleep In corridors, on account of the overcrowded condi-tion of the hospital. There were 9 deaths during the month and 19 ad-missions, in the female department, there are 1099 patients, 1 died and 19 were admitted in December.
