Wont to Work Again.

A few of the forty masons employed on the Grand ave- sewer went to work again yesterday on pledge from Commissioner Reilly of the Board of Public Works that he would see that they were paid off on Saturdays at the place where they were working, and that they
 would not be required to go to the supply house in order to get their money. President Ives also volunteered to advance the pay of the masons, wanting as little delay as possi- ble to the horse cars and patrons. The sew eff masons earn $4 or $5 day and hold that they are not city laborers who earn but $2 a day, and they say that if they obey the city g rule and walk to the supply house to get paid off, they break rule of their labor society and are subject to $25 fine thereby. There is still several days work to be done in con- nection with this sewer before the sewer is done and the cars run without interruption.

Monthly Report of Mortality of New
 Haven for August, 1880, by the
 Health Officers.
 The total mortality in New Haven for August, 1886, was 142, which is somewhat in excess of the usual mortality in August. It has been the common experience of New Haven to suffer the highest death rate in July. This year was nearly an exception, the deaths in July being only three more than in August. The mortality is always higher during these two months than in any other two, and the excess is almost always wholly due to intestinal diseases of infants. The chief interest, therefore, lies in the study of the conditions under which they occur. The following statement is in exact agree ment with the observations of the previous summer months this year as well as the pre- vious summers for several years. It shows how definitely the deaths of the little ones are associated with unsanitary conditions force how exempt from fatal intestinal dis eases are the fortunate babies who live in houses with good sanitation:
 There were 32 deaths in August from in fantile diarrhoea. Of these the homes of only 4 have not been inspected. Of the remain Ing 2S we nave Wf1tten reports III Ine once, and they are as follows:
 In 27 of the 2S there was privy in use in the yard. In the only case in which there was none the deficiency was supplemented by overcrowding, there being 15 families in block of tenements. In 22 of the 27 there were, in addition to the privies, the scarcely lesser abomination, the cesspool. In of these the situation was rendered worse by untrapped sinks and in one other by leaky drain.
 In 13 of these 2S homes we'll water was the only supply, and every well was in close proximity to privy and cesspool, often be- tween the two.
 There were no other deaths from infantile diarrhoa reported to the registrar in August.
 Of the 32, the homes of 28 have been in- spected, and it is on our record that 27 of the 28 were living over privy vaults and cess pools, and 13 of these drinking the soakage of these filthy pits from the other hole in the ground called theiwell.
 Comment on the above facts seems unnec- essary.
 The most obvious and positive inference which these facts teach is that fatal infantile diarrhoea is limited to those who are exposed to the exhalations of human excrement col lected in masses in the ground, and that the larger portion of the population not so exposed are exempt from these intestinal disorders in fatal form.
 That is the practical lesson of the mortality registration in New Haven in August.

A CHlLD'S SUFFERING From Eczema. Ears and Scalp Covered with Scabs and Sores.
 Cured by Culfcura.

My little son. aged eight years has been afflicted with Eczema of the scalp, and at times great DOT tion of the body, ever since he was two years old It began in his ears, and extended to his scalp, which became covered with scabs and sores, and from which sticky fluid poured out, causing in tense itching and distress, and leaving his hair matted and lifeless Underneath these sc4bs the skin was raw, like piece of beefsteak Gradually the hair came out and destroyed, until but a small patch was left at the back of the head. My friends in Peabody know how my little boy has suf fered. At night he would scratch his head until his pillow was covered with blood used ito tie his hands behind him, and in many ways tried to prevent his scratching; but it no use he would scratch. took him to the hospital and to the best physicians in Peabody without success About this time some friends who had been cured by the Cuticura Remedies prevailed upon me to try tbem began to them on the 18th of January last. In seven months every particle of the disease was re- moved Not spot or scab remains on his scalp to tell the story of his suffering. His hair has turned and is thick and strong, and his scalp as sweet and clean any child's in the world. can not say enough to express my gratitude for this wonderful cure by the Cuticura Remedies, and wish all similarly afflicted to know that my state ment is true and without exaggeratlon.

A number of men at the Meriden Silver Plate company's left work Monday on ac- count of dissatisfaction with the system of payment. In the course of the day the diff culty was amicably adjusted. It grew appa- rently from a misunderstanding. When the plan of weekly payments was adopted six days pay was held back. Subsequently the company tried keeping back only three days pay and finding it made getting up the pay roll difficult returned to the old plan. This was the cause of offence. When it was ex- plained the men went back to work and the six day plan is to be continued.
