CARELESS PHYSICIANS.


The Health Office Is again threatening q
prosecution against some OF the physicians
OF the city for neglect OF duty under the
statute. 1t is said that q physician handed
in report OF q case OF scarlatina about ,
O'Clock "Wednesday evening. As IL was late
the flag was not put up until 0 O'Clock
Thursday morning. IL was then learned
that the child had died at o'clock the pre-
vious evening From this il would seem
that the disease had been working in the
neiehborhood for come time before and that
before the flag was put out perhaps many
PERSONS had been exposed, all Of which
the officers think 10 to be credited
TO the physician, and who should
be fined IL he neglected to make his
report Immediately upon discovering the
existence OF the disease. The Office also re
ports another case where q doctor utterly
neglected TO file any notice OF scarlatina
even after the child originally afflicted died.
The result was the spread Of the disease to
other families, and several persons are now
sick with 1t, some of whom may die. Many
persons complain that the Health Office does
not put uD flags promptly upon the appear
snce OF contagious diseases, and the forego.
ing the officers claim are the reasons there
for. II they file against the physicians they
become from that time the enemy of the
board, and although they must know that
morally they are responsible for some deaths
thus occurring. they don't seem to have any
concern about the matter.
