Cuba1! Other Scourge.-
There are now 2,003 cases of
small pox in Havana. At Gnanna-
jay, in Pinur del Rio, which bus
only 10,000 inhabitants, there are
4t7 cases. Yellow fever and mala
ria are also ravaging the country,
and it may be safely atiirmed that
the sanitary condition of Cuba is a
far greater danger to the United
Slates than the much-feared bubonic
plague ot India. Cuba is close to
our coasts, and there is daily com
munication between tho island and
the main land.
At the end of March the depress
ing warm weather begins here, and
then diseases of a contagious nature
spread twice as fast as during the
winter. Cuba is now a focus of'dis
eabe, and may become a source f
danger to the whole world.
The small pox was introduced
here by the 200,000 eoldires from
Spain. The Spanish common peo
ple are riot eleiinly in their habits,
and moreover, they come to Cuba
crowded by thousands in the dirty
steamers of the Coinpania Transar
lantica, in" which no well bred
American would travel if he could
possibly help it

Mr. William Calver, of 207 A

etc s to urge on tho legislatures ol
tho different states a measure to do
away with any possibility of persons
being buried while in trance. Ho
also intends to embody a resolution
for the erection ot morgues in this
country similar to the used in
somo of the cities ot Europe, and
has added an improvement of his
own by which the bodies maybe
preserved in a natural state indefi

is inserted, it II not the right way
to correct tho evil by killing live

would employ.

lie advocates tho erection in
every pmce near a cemercry a
morgue in which all bodies will be
placed prior to burial. This dead
house is to have a large room, whose
walls aro of glass, so that all with
in can bo seen by an attendant,
who wilt be stationed in an adjoin
.-si i .
ing apartment. Here ail corpses
would bo placed with a string at
racnm to mo wrist, so that any
movement will ring a bell in tho
guard's room. They will lie here
until decomposition has proven
(hat it is impossible that any lilo
exiBt. Disinfectantsconld keep tho
place pertectly healthy. A morgue
similar to this is now in use in somo
Euro, can towns.
Another idea of Mr. Calver is
that the bodies bo dedicated. It
U a well known fact that in the dry
mr of. tho desert meat never spoils.
I ut keeps sweet indefinitely, even
in the warmest climate, a fact
which is borne out by the statement
of travelers in our own deserts of
the west. Mr. Calver would so ar
range that when tho proof of death
has settled forever any question ot
re existing, the corpse lie placed
in a largo chamber and subject for
uHje to a very ury ana intense ueai.
If tho process is 6low, the result
will bo that the body will shrivel,
but it w ill preserve its natural look
: , J-i l.l
as long as tho air remains dry. Ry
arranging tho dead in glass coflins
through which dry, hot, clean air
constantly flows, the men who die
o-day can bo kept for years. Tho
presidents, warriors and poets,
whom all wish to see, would then
never pas out of view ol the human
race. Washington lost.
