BOARD OF HEALTH.

Health Omeer Wright's Report for
the Past Year-The Health of New
Haven-Houses Where Contagious
Diseases Exist ought to be Placard-
ed, in the Opinion of the Board.
The meeting of the board of health last
evening was more than usually interesting.
Health Officer Wright made his report for
the year 1892. - -
There were two outbreaks of smallpox in
the year. In the first there were but two
cases, both of which were of mild form.
In the second there were thirteen cases,
two of which proved fatal. There were
eighty five cases of diphthsria reported
during the year.
The report further states that in oonse.
quence of the cholera scare the streets were
more thoroughly looked after, and they
were never In better condition than dur
ing the year. The last time the cholera
was in this city was in 1855, when be-
deaths occurred. The health officer ad-
vises in order to forestall tho cholera the
keeping of the streets, ETC., in thorough
sanitary condition, with the establishment
of disinfecting stations In various parts of
the city, and the hiring of an expert
bacteriologist whose duty shall be to ex-
anime vomit and excrement of all sus-
peoted cases.
In 1899 there were 1872 cases of scarlet
fever, 80 of which were in December. Dur
ing that month there were five deaths from
the disease. The scarlet fever cases have
been of an unusually virulent type and,
contrary to usual custom, has attacked
adults az well as children. During the
year there have been thirteen deaths from
measles. At the hospital for contagious
diseases there have been fifteen cases of
smallpox treated and one of typhus fever.
The report further states that water
should be put into the pest house at once,
together with bathroom and cssspool. It
also advocates the establishment by the
city of q disinfeoting appliance, with steam
chamber and hooks and racks, where cloth
ing can be disinfected.
In his comparison between the health of
New Haven and other cities of the same
size he made use Of the following table:
