CQRSUUTION'S RAVAGES,
SECRETARY BRYCH SAYS SANI-
TARIUMS ARE A 'NECESSITY.
re is a Blsease at lh Cities - There hast
be Isere N'resh Air to the Woritreones
and Nernes hast be Grtabtished,
The annual report of the Ontario
Provincial Board of Health, will short-
ly be issued. The principal feature of
the report is Secretary Bryce's strong
advocacy of county sanitariums for the
treatment of consumption.
He points out that smallpox has been
stamped ant of existence in Ontario,
and typhoid oases reduced one-half,
but tubercular affections are on the
increase.
There are two objects in view ; an
attempt at healing these who have
contracted the dread disease, and an
effort to save those who are in danger
of contracting it.
THREE LINES OLS' ACTION.
There are but three plain lines of
action for us, says the report. 1, Fight
by all our combined energy to prevent
by education of the people and by
legal enactment, every cause induo-
Ing to ill -health and thereby consump-
tion. 2. Remove the sources of im-
mediate infection f rom the small and
poorly equipped homes and the fac-
tories and workrooms of the working
people. 9. Then build in every country
homes for consumptives, to which, in
the early stages of the disease, they
may got and by exact treatment,
abundance of food and fresh air, of
sunshine, of exercise, of rest, main-
tain the fight against the destructive
forces of the disease, have a fair
chance of saving their lives to their
families and the Stake, and at the
same time remove the danger threaten-
ing those they love.
In plainer words, there must be a
union among the various benevolent
societies, counties, and the Province of
Onthrio to have placed in every county
it sanitarium.
'The work of fighting the great
'�'i''hite Plague' holds the first place
in the wrork of every sanitary and
benevolent association whose opera-
tion is within the great industrial
countriea of Northern America and
of Europe, where the ravages have
been described from the- earliest his-
tory till now," continues the report.
FACTS ABOUT THE DISEASE.
In dealing with the disease itself Dr.
Bryce arrives at these conclusions: -
1. That the disease is rather ono of
the city than the country.
`2. It is a disease directly associated
with the density of population,
3. That it is a disease essentially "of
house life, and that it attaches itself
with greatest persistency to particular
is lar
hotra�s, and naturally to pari u
families who occupy them year after
year.
4. That in our older set tied countries,
as in the cities, the number of infected
houses slowly increases.
5. That other cases are found in many
instances to follow a first case in a
house within a year or two.
6. That in the centre of the worst
infected districts of large cities some
houses veill year after year continue
free from the disease.
SANITARY WORKROOMS.
In another part Dr. Bryce says: -
Houses and workrooms where con-
sumptives live, must be maintained in
a sanitary condition, and that constant
and thorough precautions must be
taken with regard to exWotoration
and emanations of the sick in them.
The sick must be removed from such
dwellings as are small, crowded, and
unclean, to other more sanitary sur-
roundings if their recovery is to be
hoped for.
Then there must be sanitariums, Dr.
Bryce is hopeful for their accomplish-
ment. Twenty years ago there were
ten hospitals ; now there are 45 hospi-
tals. Twenty years ago there were 13
orphanages and one home for aged
poor; now there are 31 of the former
and 14 of thie latter.

SPECIMENS OF FRENCH JUSTICB.
tee•-
A Growing impression That it is Dlsereeter
to Rfurder luau to crittese the Armor.
During the trial of `Lola In the Courb
of Assizes, Paris,. other French courts
were as active as ever, notwithstanding
the fact that their proceedings at-
tracted very little attention. Zola's
jury sentenced him to one year's im-
prtsonment. lH'ere Is the record of ver-
dicts of the other juries during the
momentous fortnight:
Jules Delapiorre, 21 years old, tried
for the murder of his mistress's hus-
band, Jean Guillet. The murder was
confessed and unregretted. Murderer
acquit ted.
Marie Lemay, 24 yours old, tried for
the murder of Raoul Fournoy, whom
she had never seen before she killed
hint in the street. She wits acquitted.
,P;douard Noyelle, 28 years old, tried
for the murder of his brother-in-law,
whom he hated. Murder premeditat-
ed and atrocious. Murderer acquitted.
Emile Blanchard, 24 years old, and
Jaques Nautre, 26 years old, tried for
the murder of an innkeeper's wife and
the serious maiming of the man him-
self. The attack was wholly unpro-
voked, and was made to avoid paying
for drinks. Murderers acquitted.
Louis Lalievre, a pensioned police
man, tried for the waptun murder
of a man whose wife' ire had insulted
beforehand. Murderer acquitted.
Victorine SoLon, 27 years old, tried
for the murder of six new-born child-
ren, in complicity with her lover, Guil-
ty ; sentenobd to five years' imprison-
ment.
Marie Languillat, 17 years old, tried
for strangling her baby, whose father
had deserted her. guilty ; sentenced
to five years' imprisonment.
Lucie Dubois, 22 years old, tried for
blinding with vitriol the Marquis d'
Imbleval, Acquitted.
Armand Hainselin, 80 years old, tried
for the murder of his wife. Guilty ;
sentenced to prison for life.
Alphonse Coquelard, 26 years old,
tried for the murder of his mistress.
Guilty; one year's imprisonment.
Jean Perrot, 19 years old, tried for
throwing his mistress out of a fourth -
story window. Guilty ; sentenced to
six months' imprisonment, but sent-
ence suspended.
Claude Blond, 55 years old, tried for
killing his aged • father by torture
which lasted several hours. Guilty ;
sentenced to prison for life.
Matthieu Rallu, 37 years old, tried
for the brutal murder of a girl 15 years
cid. Guilty; sent.e.nced to jail for ten
years.
Pierre Collaort, 10 years old, tried for
beating out the brains of a 76 -year-old
woman, whom he robbed. Guilty;
twenty years at hard labor.
Fernand Deslandes, 31 years old,
tried for the murder of a gamekeeper.
Guilty; sentenced to ten years in jail.
Theophile Brulon, 35 years old, tried
for the murder of a 70 -year-old woman,
into whose house he had broken for
robbery. Guilty ; six years . at hard
labor.
Paul Gaudet, tried for the murder oP
his wife" in jealous rage. Guilty, eight
years at hard labor.
Jean (fassagne, a Lavern keeper, tried
for the murder of an inoffonsive Ital-
ian, "whose looks he did not like." Aa
quitted.
These ar•e but a few of the many
cases tried, of course, but they are per-
haps sufficient to indicate the grounds
for an impression which is growing in
Paris -that it is discreeter to commit
murder than it is t:o criticise the army.
