BOARD OF HEALTH.
Last Evenings SessiOn-The Usual
Number Of Complaints.


The usual weekly meeting Of the
Board of Health WAS held last evening,
with President Bush in the chair. 1t
WAS reported that the nuisance Oh Miss
Thatcher's property, No. 707 Market
street. had not been abated, although
the time prescribed in the notice had
expired. The Secretary said that the
executive officer would abate this nui-
sance after he had attended to others in
the vicinity. and DIR. Grilnshaw re-
marked that it was the Board, and not
the Secretary who had authority in such
cases.
The nuisance from the pig pens in
the vicinity of Front and Union streets,
complained of a few weeks ago, was re-
ported abated The complaint about
Pleasant street was referred to the
Street mlnissiOner. President Bush
referred to the case of the little child
who recently died with smallpox at
Sixth and DUPONT streets, and said that
owing to the fact of the Board not be-
ing able to obtain an undertaken, they
were compelled to have the body burl
ed in the back yard, but since then, it
had been taken up by some ones orders,
and inferred in Potter's Field. The
removal was without the authority of
the Board, and he did not think they
should pay for it.
The Board had already paid $40 for
the interment, but now the whole cost
amounted to $50. The Trustees of the
Poor had paid 81 for a coffin, and are
willing to pay So more, and in his opir ion
should pay the full amount for the re-
moval. AS the members seemed to be of
the same opinion as the President, the
further consideration of the mater was
postponed for one week, and DR.. Spring.
er was instructed to present the matter
to the Trustees to-day, at ttheirquarterly
meeting
The President informed the Board
that the Stree Commissioner had pro-
cured hose for the purpose of washing
out the cutters that are covered with
iron plates, in accordance with the re-
ccmlnendation of the Board. Com
plaint was made of a nuisance existing
on rot over Third street bridge, and
the Secretary was instructed to notify
the Railroad Company to have 1t ahat
ed.
