—The hospitals of New York are pre
paring to receive the 400 or more cases
of lockjaw which are sure, according to
precedent, to follow the celebration of
the Fourth of July in that city. No
number of warning words or terrible
phrases describing the horrors of teta
nus seem to avail in lessening the cum
ber of victims. Indeed, they increase
year by year. List season there were
413 cases of lockjaw following the cele
bration of the Fourth in that city, and
there were only 11 recoveries. Tetanus
is more deadly than the bite of a mad
dog, and death from it is equally pain
ful and more horrible. This germ ex
ists everywhere. Warm weather is fa
vorable to its propagation and the
Fourth of July is its harvest. Boiling
water does not destroy it, neither does
freezing weather kill it. Tetanua germs
placed upon wood have been known to
last for ten years, and a splinter from
the wood entering a man's hand at the
end of that time proved fatal, Every
case of tetanus that develops within
five days is fatal. The germs thrive
and fatten upon the apparently trivial
wonnds inflicted by the wad of a blank
cartridge just as it does upon the dead
tissue around a burn, where other germs
eat up the oxygen and thereby protect
the tetanus germ.
