on Saturday evening, at which there were
present Drs. Nixon, Simmons, Gardner aud

ord for October was read and accepted, and

Der and October was received and placed on

Dars, Nelson. Hatch, Clayton, Baldwin,
White, Gard1er. Bruno, Psndery, Voeller
and Montgomery. and midwives Rsude, Rsu-
ter, Thomas, Kuntz, Uhl. Fuchs and La

part of the profession to report births, it was
on motion ordered that the Board OF Trustees
be requested to empower the Secretary to
have postal cards printed for the use of prac-
titioners Of midwifery, by which the incou-
venience attending reports would be lesssned.
petition was received from Messrs. Nico-
laus & Wittenbrook, complaining of the
American Laundry on Nineteenth and I
streets as nuisance.
DIR. Simmons reported that on behalf of
the Board he had visited and inspected the
premises named, and found that the propri-
etor had endeayored TO abate the nuisance
bat in consequence of the nature Of the waste
water and insufficient drainage, it was i'm
possible to correct 1t. In his opinion there is
no other way to prevent the i'll effects of this
bad condition than by the construction of
sewer On Seventeenth street. which is ur-
gently demanded, not only for the evil COM
planned of, but for the benefit of that entire
section of the city lying east OF Fourteenth
street. He therefore recommended that the
Board of Trustees be requested to take such
action in this matter as wsuid secure the
erection Of a sewer Of full capacity on the
line of Seventeenth street, and motion to
that effect was adopted.
Bills of f. C. Xix & Co. and A. G. Tufts,
for medicines furnished the Dispensary, were
read and approved.

and the measures to be adopted ensusd, in
which the action of the State Board recently
taken was earnestly indorsed and the hope
expressed that rigid quarantine might be-
established by that Board on or near the

The Board then adjourned.
