SEWER DEPARTMENT.

The continued growth of the city
demands a corresponding increase in
the sew erage area. The extension OF
the mains through the Ninth and
Tenth Wards should not be longer
DELAYED as the population OF these
suburban wards is increasing as rap
idly az that of any portion OF the
CITY. and this increase throws CORE
spending amount of work upon the
garbage service, which is now taxed
beyond its capacity. l, therefore,
think it economy in the end, besides
answering the necessities OF the pub
lie health interest to do the greatest
amount OF work possible in this direc-
ton the ensuing year.
The following statement OF Work
done during the year in this depart
ment is furnished me by Mr.. Anthony
Ross OF the Engineers office: =,
Sewer connections to date, includ-
ing water closets, bath tubs, slop
sinks, cellar drains, ETC., ll4O. Inc
connections made during the year oil
like character were 740. Three hun
dred and two house connect ons were
made at an average cost OF % 20 each
and 100 distractions removed at an
average cost Of 81 80 each.
Eight-tenths of a mile Of new sew
ers were laid, which, added to thosf
previously in operation, now gives Al
miles in operation.

Dr 7hornton's Report.

To the Hon orable Legislative Council:
GRNrLRMEN-I have the honor to
submit the following report OF the
Board of Health for the year ending
December 81, 1885. The year was an
except onally healthy one, and while
general climatic conditions may have
been unusually favorable, the total
freedom from epidemic disease, with
a lower death rate calculated upon the
same estimated population, must be
due, in a great measure, TO the i'm
proved sanitary condition Of the city,
the enforcement OF the health ordi-
nances and operations OF the health
department.
With a steadily increasing popula-
ton, which is apparent and conceded,
and which > is st.ested by improve
nents in every part of the city, the
number Of deaths for the year is 1873
Aess than for 1884, and only 81 in ex-
cess of 1888. This, l think, demon
strstes very clearly an improved con-
dition OF the public health OF the city,
due to local sanitation.
In calculating the death rate per
lUUU on al cnllludScu pOpuioNSAi
take the came figures used in the two
preceding reports, so, 1856, and assume
one. third to be oolored. l regret Il
was impracticable to have an ofticia
census taken last fall, as it is mani
testify unjust now to adhere to th'
United States census OF 1880, and al
estimated population, as in this IN
stance, is not as satisfactory as woul'
be an official census.
However, to answer as nearly Q
possible all questions on this subject
/ submit, as in preceding reports,
death rate calculated on the United
States census of 1880, and also one o.
the estimated population, both wit
and without the deaths OF non'resi
dents.

Twill aaain direct your attention to
the imuortaace Of flush tanks and

ers, which serve the greater part oil
the business portion OF the city.
They contain sewer gas which is at
times very offensive 10 some houses
connected with them. This, think,
could be prevented, or at least very
materially improved in this way. Five
az these flush tanks are needed (see
last report), and with the ventilation
openings could be made at an estl-
mated cost Of $500.
THE wATHR SUPPLY.
Ihave nothing additional to suggest
in regard to the present water supply
other than to emphasize the ooleo-
tions made in previous reports, moth
ING having occurred TO change the
opinion then expressed.
As the subject is nov under eonsid-
Grafton by q special committee, APP
pointed by you to investigate aud re-
mort on the practicability OF obtaining
the supply from another source or
from another point OF intake above
the possibility Of pollution on Wolf

QUARANTINE AND YELLow'FEvxR PRE-
vEETIoN.
In July last, on an invitation from
the Louisiana State Board Ct Health,
and at the instance Of the Tennessee
State Board, | visited New Orleans,
aud in company with the members ol
the Louisiana Board, and Others In
tsrested in the subject, visited the
quarantine stations below that city
and witnessed practical demon,
stration OF the new methods adopted
by the Louisiana health officials in
maritime sanitat'oD, and the additlona
precautions now taken to prevent thu
importation Of yellow-iever into tina
State. AS far as i am capable OF ludg
ing, every practicable necessary pre-
caution is being used to prevent rep
etition of former epidemics of that dIs
ease in New Orleans. In addit on :
these precautions, the health authori
ties there promise, and l believe wi
act in good faith, to give immediat
public notice Of the existence OF req
or suspicious case OF yellow-fever in
ported into or occurring in New U
leans. In this connection may stat
that our last Legislature made an al
preparation of 10000, $4,000 OF whic
could be used annually by the Tenne

ImparIaut Decision 10 "gardinE
ThousRnd-Nile Tlcket.BOOks.

Hartford, Or, February TO-
Judge Shipman, In the United States
Court. made an important decision
Yesterday in q case involving the use
of so.called thousand.mile ticket
books OF railroads. The decision APP
plies rot only TO this case, where
Frank ii. Whitelsey sued the. New
York and New England railroad, but
to ether railroads where q full mile
rate is charged for fractions OF mile.
Whitelsey started from Providence to
Hartford, and because of change OF
conductors az Willimantic, Ct, was
not permitted to make through pay
ment. The result was that the Gee
ond conductor, acting under the rules
of the read, demanded one coupon
more than the number, which, added
TO those Whitelsey had already sur
rendered, would have paid the
through rate from Providence to
Hartford. Whitelsey refusing pay
ment of this extra coupon, was ar.
rested on reaching Hartford and
charged with evading fare. The case
was not pressed by the company, aud
he then brought suit for $1,000
damages. Judge Shipman yesterday
awarded him $26 damages anu an
equal amount for cost, and says that
Whitelsey had fair claim Of right to
the legal position which he maintained
in refusing TO surrender the extra
| coupon.
