An exchange, in speaking of diphtheria,
which is just now prevalent in many parts
of this country, says : Tho best medical au
tborities say that a child afflicted with dipb
tlieria should uot be exposed for from three
to tour weeks after apparent recovery, and
that the disease is contagious and will be
communicated for that length of time. Chl
dree that have suffered from this disease
should, therefore be kept out of school for
that period, aud tho spread of the disease
would thus be prevented. Much can bo
done to stop the spread of this di tease, if tho
iieople will udopt strict sanitary measures,
and enforce them. The triple cannot le
too oau iuus where the disease prevails.

The leading interests In the anthracite
coal trado have made another movement
looklngto continued concert of action. Some
weeks ago they announced a determination
to work but three days in each week during
tho month of January, In order,ftrst,lo limit
production to about the demands of the
market, and, second, to prevent a large
stock of cool going over into the new year
1SSI. By tho time the month of January
was half out the first oi these objects was
accomplished coal was becoming scarce and
the weather was very severe. Tho orders
for coal are now beyond tbo ability of the
operators to supply, and In ordor to prevent
a coal (amine, and, what might happen,np
pressive prices for coul,weare informed that
the Lehigh Valley Railroad Company, the
Delaware and Hudson Canal Company, the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Rail
road Company, the Central Railroad of New
Jersey, the Pennsylvania Coal Company
aud tho Reading Railroad Company have
agreed to work from this day forward full
winter time, that is, six days in the week
and some nine hours perday,whtch is about
as many hours as they can work at the
mines. With the weather we have had for
the past three or four weeks, tho mining and
movement of coal is necessarily a good deal
interrupted. The coal as it is put into the
cars is wet, and beforo it is sufficiently
manipulated it is frozcu solid, and in onler
to further handlo it a hole has to bo bored
into it and a jet of steam furred through it.
All this causes delay, and when to this is
added tho fact of a scurcity of cars, the coal
trado has naturally assumed a threatening
position, and the outlook of the trade for
the remainder of the year is most encourag
ing. The indications now are that little, if
any coal will be carried over, and that the
early spring business will have to depend
almost entirely on current production. As
cimpjml with tho early spring of 1880,
when some two millions or more of tons
wero carried over from 1879, Ihe market
will probably he comparatively bare, and,
starting so, will rule active and firm to tlie
end of the venr. As yet we hear ol nn ad
vance In the prices of coal by the leading
companies engaged iu the tiniibilinlinn, yet
the situation of (he mirk el is Bitch (hat there
is little doubt an advance of price could be
'forced if it was unitedly picsed. This is
creditable to lo (he trade, and goes far In
prove the sincerity of the coal combination
of last year, when the purpose of a monnpi
ly was denied, and no more was claimed in
price by producers from consumers than
fail compensation for the value included in
n ton ol coal. The Miner' Journal, with
oursi-lve., looks favorably on Hie anthracite
coal tiade for ISSI, and thussavs, "Tl
supply and demand thus kept pretty well
equalized. It will be ii'-cetsary to regulate
supply during Hie winter months so that the
spring trade may open without any excsi
of coal at tide. Should this be done there is
not much fearofthe trade being able to take-
care of itself. There was considerably more
coal consumed last year than the year pre'
villus, though the production fell oil' two
and a half million tons. A largo quantity
of the conl mined in 1879 was consumed in
1880, and the excess over the needs of 1879
was tho distributing element which rendered
frequent stoppages necessary last vear. The
present ycaropeus with a market practically
bare of coal in first hands, and I Ms, together
with tho natural increase in Hie demand
gives promise of Ihe production largely in
excess of 1879, or say closely approximating
30,000,000 tons. With prices maintained ut
the figures of hist year, and it would scarce
ly be judicious to raise them, the year 1881
will be tbo most prosperous of any since the
opening of the trade. The opening this year
Is, therefore, in marked contrast to that o
previous years, when doubt and distrusl
marked the present and uncertainty and
dread was the effect of a ghtuce into the
future. Tlie change has been brought about
by the voluntary action of the leading pro
ducers, for be it known that the year just
passed was the only one In the history o
the trado. in which they have voluntary
agreed to a policy of mutual concession, and
it lias been demonstrated to work so satis
factorily that there is no disposition to
abandon it. Late on Saturday it wasagreed
by the anthracite mining and transporting
interests to work full limo this week (that
Is, from the 17th to the 22d, Inclusive), and
then resume the present programmo for tb
rest of tho month. The stock of coal on hand
at the tide-water shipping points, December
31, 1680, was 500,273 tons; on November 30,
609,833 tons; decrease, 109,560 tons. The
amount on hand December 31, 1879, wa
613,512 tons, and on December 31, 1878
501,177 tons. Of the total production
1880, 11,419,279 tons, or 48.72 per cent, was
from Wyoming Region; 4,463,221 tons, or

"In accordance with tbo terms of the con

of that issue as hearing interest from that

created a mortgage for $10,000,000 In bonds,
to bear lulcrcst at the rate of six per cent.
and that we held $5,000,000 of such bonds,
None of these had ever been disimsed of, end
in March last, at our request, tho original
mortgage was cancelled and discharged from
the record and a new one created, to secure
$6,000,000 in six thousand bonds of $1000
each, benringinterestattho rate of 5 percent
of which we received five thousand in

the Company. Tho remaining one thous

for the payment for the large increase of

Diphtheria and Scnrlct Fever.
Commissioner James Crane, M, D-, of the
Brooklyn Health Department, in viewof the
prevalence of diphtheria, and scarlet fever
in that city, a few days ago, caused circulars
to be distributed, setting forth the followiug
facts and recommendations to restrict and
prevent contagion:
Diphtheria ami scarlet fever are highly
contagious diseases, attacking persons of all
ages. They may be contracted from per
sons that are already affected, from the
clothes they have worn and from everything
which bas been in the room with them.
Even the walls of Hie room may infect per
sons coming into it alter the patient has re
covered, unless the poison is destroyed. In
onler lo prevent their spread iu a lamlly or
houso where they exist and to promote ite
recovery of the persons uitucked the follow
ing simple measure should be conscientious
ly and rigidly carried out, thereby prevent
ing much suffering and saving human life:
An upper, sunny room, provided, ifpos
siblo with an open lireplace, and with no
other children ou the same floor, should be
arranged for the patient by removing every
thing Ironi it which can possibly be spared,
such as books, clothing and window cur
tains, remembering that when once the pa
tient bas eulered the room nothing can with
safety bo removed until disinfected or fumi
gated. One or two adults should take the
entire charge of the patient, under no cir
cumstances coming in contact with other
jiersons, mora especially children. Opon
windows and open fireplaces, with fire in
them day and night, avoiding draughts and
chilly air, protect the sick and those who
nurse them. Nothing should be removed
from the room when the patient has once
entered it until has been thoroughly disin
fected or fumigated.
Procure from a drug store one pouud of
sulphate of line; the price should not ex
ceed thirty couts. Put Into an ordinary
water pail eight tablespoonfuls of sulphate
of slue and four of common salt, and to this
add one gallon of boiling water. This dis
infecting solution is to be kept in the room
and into it should be placed and kept for
one hour, every article of soiled clothing,
bedding, handkerchiefs, Ac When they
are removed from ittbejr should be put into
boiling water before being washed, 'fhe
dishes and spoous used by the patient should
be put into boiling water before they are
)iermitled to leave the room. Remember
that every article which is in the room can
convey the diseaso and that nothing should
go Irom it until tbo poisou which it might
carry is destroyed
See that the whole bouse from cellar to
attic is clean. Keep the cellar dry, welU
