port of the state board of health for July
as compiled by DR.. G. A. Lindsey, secre-
tary of the board. The mortality reports
are from 1865 towns in the state.
During the month there were 1,s47
deaths reported inIthe state. This was sos
more than in June; it was 1888 more than
in July, 1891, and 124 more than the aver
age number of deaths for July for the five
years preceding the present.
The death rate was 24.6 for the large
towns; for the small towns 1911, and 22.9
for the whole state. The deaths from
zymotic diseases were 575, being $3.50 per
cent. of the total mortality, against 20 per
cent. in June. The following infectious
diseases were reported: Measles, scarlet

Group and typhoid fever.
DR.. Lindsey sounds note of warning
by calling attention to the increasing prev

gests the possibility of its reaching this

AN EXCITING smAsH-uP.

4 Butchers Wagon Runa way
Knocks Over North" FIaven
Farmers Road WagOn-The Farm
er and a Lady Thrown Out, on
Grand Avenue. 49,.
There was an exciting time 'Jn Grand
avenue for few minutes yeste1 day after
noon at about three O'Clock ard crowd
of people was gathered there. In no time
in consequence thereof. A horse with a
light business wagon attached came run
ming driverless down Elm street. The
team narrowly escaped coliding with q
State street car laden With passengers,
mostly ladies; and then sped up the hill
towards the Atwater block, striking the
rear end of a yellow road wagon in which
were tied Samuel Tucker, q North Haven
farmer. and young lady from Brooklyn
who is visiting Mr.. fuckers people. Up
went one wheel of the runaway wagon
over the dashboard of the farmers wagon
and over the seat in between Mr.. Tucker
and the young lady, and in a trice the
| farmers wagon toppled over and over, the
young lady was thrown out into the
| street, followed in second by Mr.. Tucker,
who struck heavily upon his shoulder,
and lay under his wagon, olinging to the
reins, while both horses and wagons
seemed inextricably entangled. Forum
ately the plucky farmer lying in the street
stopped his horse by holding stoutly ON to
the reins. The other horse was stopped
before it reached the Grand avenue rail
road bridge. The young lady and the
farmer emerged from under the wagon
and the latter mounted into the seat OF
the vehicle, after it had been 1ighted, and
sat calmly waiting to resume her journey
back to North Haven, looking cheerful
and blithe, fortunately not having beer
injured in the least. A crowd of specta
tors fastened to congratulate her AND
prefer aid. Mr.. Tucker busted himself
despite his twinges in his shoulder
caused by his fall, in examin
ing his vehicle, the tail boari
of which was badly wrecked. The meat,
and vegetables spilled from the othel
wagon were gathered together. The run
away teams, it was stated, belonged to tn
New Haven Provision company on Crane
avenue and James street, and the hors
was making for the home base when tn
accident occurred, having started on hi
journey from near Westville.

CAMP WHITE, N1ANT1c, Aug. 1.-THE

erati6ed. To-day as battalion drill was
nearly through Colonel tBurpee drew the
men up in line and said that the battalion
drill of to-day and yesterday were the
best drills he had ever seen executed by
regiment drilling with tactics which were
new to them. The men, he said, showed
willingness and an aptitude to learn the
tactics thoroughly, and that they under

fact that they went through every form
exactly as prescribed by the tactics hook.
Colonel Burpee also thanked the band for
efficient service. The parade was dis

to-day who would be referees. He replied
that he had not yet decided and would not
do SO until tomorrow. The referees
would probably be brigade officers.

washington's Birthday at san Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. Washington's
birthday was observed here as a general
holiday, banks, exchanges, and most bust
ness houses being closed. There was a
parade of the National guard in the after
noon. A large number of excursionists
went from the city to Mare Island navy
yard, where at present are a number of
government vessels To-day all the yes
sells at the station were gayly decorated in
honor of the day. The Charleston, Mo
hican, Baltimore, Albatross, Patterson
and independence were noticeable for the
artists style displayed in dressing the
ship.
The Albatross is now on the stone dock
receiving an overhauling preparatory to
resurveying the route for the laying of the
Hawaiian cable. She will probably leave
the yard about the middle of March. No
orders whatever have been received for
the departure of the Baltimore or Charles
ton. Repairs to the Adams are nearly
completed and she will be ready for the
navy department in about about a month.
Repairs to the Nipsic are finished. 1t is
intended she shall go to Port Orchard, the
site for the new navy yard on Puget
sound. The Ranger Is still in the hands of
workmen and it will require at least three
months more to place her in frst-class

Daughters of the American Legislature

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The first CONT
mental congress of the National Society Of
Daughters of the American Revolution
began its session this morning at the
Church of Our Father. The congress is COM
posed of all active officers of the national
cociety, one regent from each state and
regents and delegates of each organized
chapter. Mrs. Benjamin Harrison, who is
president general of the society, delivered
an address of welcome. She reviewed the
organization of the society in October,
1890, since which time membership of l.
200 has been gained There have been diff
tculties in the organization, and the
troubles at times, perhaps, caused friction,
but in view of the great success which at
tended the labors of the society and of the
more brilliant future which is before it,
these can happily be forgotten.
Mrs. Cabell read report recommending
the building of national hall for the ma
tional society in Washington.

Billy Smith Knocks Out Frank Keller.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 22.-At the Cali
fornia Athletic club tonight a large crowd
assembled 10 witness finish fight between
Billy Smith, the we'll known Australian
heavyweight, and Frank Keller, of Ypsi
lanti, Mich, for $1,000 purse. Keller's
superior height and long reach made him
an awkward party for Smith to handle.
and the first twelve rounds he punished
Smith pretty badly. The latter slipped to
the floor several times, but in the twelfth
landed some hard blows on the Michigan
mans head that dazed him. In the
fifteenth, however, Keller finished up and
nearly dropped Smith with smash on the
jaw. In the twentieth, Smith repeated his
Jobs On Keller's left temple, making the
Michigan man very groggy. Smith knocked
him down again in the twenty-fourth.
When he arose, he sent him to the floor
once more. Keller was struggling to his
feet when counted out.
During the fight. President Fulda read q
cablegram from Joe Goddard, the Aus
traliau, accepting match with Joe Nc
Auliffe for June and asking the club to
cable expenses Immediately.
