The Board OF Health Talk of What
should BE Done to Insure Hts orders
Mere Promptly Carried Out-TyPhOid
Fever Generally the Result of bad
Plumbing.
The board of health held it's regular weekly
meeting last night. When some of the or
ders that the board had issued Aad had not
been complied with had been read, and a
motion made to refer them to the city attor-
ney, Mr.. Grant relieved the monotony by i'm
quiring if anyone could explain what good
was done by referring those orders to the city
attorney. He said that as far as he had been
able to see it meant nothing.
Professor Brewer replied that it did much
good, because most people would comply
with an order from the city attorney when
they wouldn't with one from the board of
health. In certain cases where parties re-
fused nothing could be done unless g civil
suit was brought.
Mr.. Grants question as to whether any
civil suits had been brought elected the fact
that none of the members knew anything
about the matter, as no report from the city
attorney is ever made. Mr.. Grant said that
there were cases that he knew of which had
been referred to the city attorney and the
order had not even then been carried out.
Clerk Bailey explained that many times
people made City Attorney DALEY believe
| that they had complied. and he had no di
rect way of ascertaining whether they were
telling the truth. Mr.. Bailey said that the
| matter interested him very much. Under
| the existing laws persons not complying with
| the order cannot be arrested on criminal
charge as was formerly the case. About the
only thing that could be done would be fol
| the board to have an attorney to act in The
same capacity as the prosecuting agent. Mr.
Bailey also suggested that there were proba
bly, many attorneys who would be willing &c
| bring civil suits in such cases for the cost
l fees. He found that there was much faul
| found because there was not enough frmnes
shown by the board in having orders carried
out.
It was suggested that the legislature nigh
L be appealed to for special act in this matter
] No definite action was taken by the boart
last night.
Health Officer Williston reported that Their
were two cases of typhoid fever in the house
4 No. Humphrey street. The house on TIA
inside was in an unsanitary condition on &C
count of the plumbing. He said that mos
cases of typhoid fever sprung from unsani
tary surroundings. The matter of puttin
| the house in a sanitary condition was re
ferred to the standing committee, with poWe
4 to act.

A Veteran mlIl owner Nearly Killed.
Emory johnson, proprietor of the Neptune
twine mills in Moodus, and one of the largest
cotton manufacturers in the place, was struck
by falling timber at the upper mill about
II O'Clock yesterday forenoon and seriously
injured. He was experimenting the moving
of some machinery and the skid upon which
the machinery was hauled from the ground
to the second floor fell, striking him upon the
head. He was picked mp unconscious and
taken to his home and DAB summoned.
Upon examination it was found that he was
badly bruised about the head and arms and
had one rib broken. Mr.. johnson is about
seventy-two years Of age, but it IL thought
now that he will recover, although it is q
wonder that he was not instantly killed.

THE siGHTsEER's HEADACHE.
Even the Museum Lounger Finds Pal
Mixed with His Pleasure.

Even the Museum Lounger Finds Pain
Mixed with His Pleasure.
OF the lighter penalties which pleasure en-
tails, none probably is more widely known
felt and more psrsistertly endured, accord
ing to the London Lancet, than the sight.
neer's headache 1t is natures tax levied on
the comfort of that great body of busy idlers
to which we all at some time or other belong.
It is endemic among the frequenters of mus
Gums, picture galleries and exhibitions. The
very general prevalence of this variety of
headache. and its independence in many in
stances of any vitiations of atmosphere,
teach us to look for its explanation in
other causes. The effort of mind implied
in long continued observation, even though
this does not involve the strain of study, has
probably an appreciative' though second
airy influence. Fatigue certainly has an i'm
portant share in it's production; but it is
with most person rather fatigue of muscle
that of brain. The maintenance of the up
right posture during several hours of languid
locomotion, the varied and frequent move
ments of the head commonly in an upward
directions, and the similar and equal restless
ness of eyes whose focas of vision shifts at
every turn new object presents itself,
form combined series of forces more pow
erful in this respect than the sunlight and
frequent changes of mental interest and at
tention by which they are accompanied.
The muscular strain implied in these move
I ments is necessarily very considerable. 1t
affect more or less every member of the body,
but the distance locslization of the resulting
1 ache has probably much to do with the usual
activsty of the cervical extensor and rotato1
| muscles and of the muscles which move the
| eyeball. Whatever the minor influence al
l work, therefore, there can be little doubt
that mere fatigue is primarily accountable fol
| this most general form of headache, and thai
| rest and nourishment are most relis BILE anti
| dotes. The utility of stimulants for this pur-
pose is necessarily temporary and deceptive
One Improvement on existing arrangements
ought to be of real assistance to the suffering
| sight-seer if more generally introduced by
responsible authorities. The comparative
scarcity of seats in many places of amuse
ment has often been noticed. It would be
much to the public advantage If this wan
| were supplied. Far the attendants at exhib
ition stall a chair for occasional use is an alb
| solute necessity.

lieutenant governor on the Democratic ticket

SUmMER NOTES.

At merwin's Point and WOodmont.
There will be literary entertainment al
the Woodmout chapel this "wednesday,
evening for the benefit of the chapel. Rev.
Mr.. Thorpe, of West Haven, will give one OF
his very popular readings and there will be
some good singing. This will be followed in
August by an ice cream festival.
Business at Woodmont is booming. The
Hotel Pembroke, kept by Mr.. Rood, is doing
splendidly. Mr.. Rood catered for fifty
guests extra recently. Judge Robertson and
wife, of New Haven, are spending the sum-
mer at this hotel.
Hubbell & Merwin, builders. of New Ha-
ven, are erecting fine shore cottage for Mr..
N. T. Clark, of Milford. Mr.. Ed. Smith of
st. John street, New Haven, has sold his cot
tage, but will occupy it until August LIST.
Charles P. Merwin and family, of Berlin, are
at the shore for the summer. This is one of
the loveliest shores along the coast. There
are no mosquitoes to vex the soul, and the
lovely landscape with the fresh sea breezes
and the plash of the waves as they dash over
the rocks as the tide comes in renders this a
refreshing and romantic spot in which to
spend vacation. Shore travel has not been
as great this season as the road from New
Haven Is much impeded by the erection of a
new iron bridge over Oyster river which
necessitates New Haveners to take longer
route by the Woodmont depot road.
