LABOR TROUBLES. Sydney, >pril 22 Trouble is threatened m the boot ' trade. After an informal conference ;of delegates representing the Boot i Trades Union, the Manufacturers Asso- i ciation notified the Union that as the Union had failed to induce non-union masters to employ men at recognised statement wages the existing statement and Union can no longer be recognised. The Goal Conference meets at 11 o'clock this morning. Mr Alexander Brown, proprietor of the NewLambton Colliery, has refused to attend, stating that it ... can only have a mischievous result. He adds that the miners are entitled , to an advance m wages as the owners can sell as much coal at 9a per ton as the present cutthroat price. The * wheelers difficulty at the Seaham colliery is settled. A BISHOP ON DIVORCE. The Bishop of Goulburn, m hi* address to the Synod, regretted the lamentable increase m the number of ■■■■ divorce cases m the colony. He said a great evil threatened, owing to the - recognition of two sorts, of marriages, those which the State made legal and those the Church looked upon as law ful. He deplored the fact that civil legislation should have deliberately set aside the obligations of Divine law, GOLD IN NEW GUINEA. Mr E. G. Braddon has returned from New Guinea where, with a large party of Europeans, he has spent several months prospecting. He states that he found alluvial gold m consider able quantities m the basins of the three principal rivers ; there is also a Urge area of auriferous country. In four months the party obtained 48 ounces, of which 28 were secured during the last week. The remainder of the time was chiefly devoted to exploration. Though gold exists m large quantities, Mr Braddon says that owing to the density of the scrub, the want of roads, and the high cost of supplies, the prospects would hardly pay to work at present. If the country was anything like opened up, it would make all the difference. The majority of the party considered the outlook, even at the present time, so good that they have returned. The Germans are rery jealous of their rights, and refused to allow the party to prospect m their territory. The German authorities in formed Mr Brandon that the Emperor had strictly ordered them not to allow any enroachment, and also stated that it was intended to make an alteration m the control of the territory with a view to more active interest being taken by the Emperor — As an earnest of Mr Braddon's statement, the steamer Titus has just brought 125 ounces of gold from New Guinea. FEMALE DOCTORS. MILIOUENE, April 22. The Hospital Committee have admitted two successful lady candidates as resident medical officers after a long discussion.

Prevention ie Better Than Cure mHE few caßes of Typhoid m Ashbnrton Borough and Suburbs afford no * ground for a " scare," but it is only by using .reasonable precautions that the dread scourge can be kept within bounds. In view of the subject being referred to m the public journ als, it may be of service to reprint an extract from an issue of the "Nineteenth Century » of last year, m which special reference is made to Diphtheria, but which applie s with equal force to Typhoid. The writer remarks, that the latest epidemics m Russia swept away nearly all the children m some villages ; and m Prussia, no less than one-sixth to one-fourth ptrt of.aU children dying m the age of from one to, five jears suc- cumbed .to Diphtheria, and thesame proportion prevailed m Western Europe as well. Keen interest is being taken m the experiments of the French - Doctors, Roox and Tersen ; but Diphtheria, like Anthrax, Cholera, Typhoid, Malaria, and other kindred complaints is due to an infection of the body by special bacteria, caused by the effluvia rieing from drains, back yards and ' premises generally, into and upon which dairy and kitchen slops have been thrown. Without an infection by , bacteria or the poisons which they secrete, there is no diphtheria. The Portable Wash Barrow is just the brie thing indispensable m the direction of perfect sanitary arrangements. By its use, a two-fold benefit is derived. The fever and diphtheria breeding agencies are removed, and what is otherwise a source of terror becomes »n absolute gain, by conveying the wash to pig trough or to the garden. The Portable Barrows can be put to varions kinds of use, and they are so admirably' con- structed that, with them, a child can do work which otherwise requires the strength of mature years. The cost is comparatively small. Possession of one becomes an absolute means of sweetness, comfort and profit. r Improved Copper Boilers. > lhave just receiv-ed direct from the manufacturers a fresh : supply oL Portable Ccpper Boilers, with patent smoke stack joint, and Semi-double sheeted frame — galvanised.
