Citizens Associations Objections TO the
Proposed Contagious Hospital Site
The joint meeting called by the East Wash
ington and Northeast Washington Citizens
Associations to consider the location OF the
hospital for contagious diseases at Baum's
Hall last night had an enthusiastic a;tsndance.
Presidents j. ". Ba5sOn and Evan Tucker
with Secretaries Sperry and Fisnigen were in
their places. Mr.. Tucser stated the pur-
poses of the meeting and Mr. Babson read
the report of the special committee.
Thia report recognizes the DseessIiy for the
speedy erection OF The proposed hospital and
the difficulties in which the Coz mi sioners
are placed by seeking a heaithful location,
while sure to be opposed by residents of the
immediate vicinity selected. 1t states the
purpose of TIE associations TO be to aid them
and to protest against the location proposed
by The board OF trade committee on the
borders OF the pest ential marshes OF the
Anacostia River. Ii says:
"a more inviting place for the invasion OF
the miasmatic atmosphere from the fats than
this low ravine can hardly he found on the
river"
The report of the warden OF the jail for
1892 is quoted to show that the location
would be likely to spread disease through
the District by conta>ion to prisoners who
go in all directions when set free
: The report closes with the extracts from
the reports of LIEUT.. Hams and the letter of
Health Officer Hammett recently printed "
The TIMES in its exclusive account of the ex-
ecutife committee session which prepared
for last nights meeting. These extracts SIT
forth strongly the unhealthy condition of the

posed location.

Santa Fe, the city of the Holy Faith Of
st Francis, is situated an the site of an
ancient Indian Pueblo called O-ga-p -ho-ge
It is probably the oldest civilized COM
mnnity in the United States and the most
ancient of American capitals. The Spanish
town was founded in 1905. Authorities dis
agree as to whether this city or San Angus
tin, Fla. were first founded. Santa Fee was
first visited by American traders in 1901
and from that time dated a wonderful era
of prosperity. The thrilling incidents ofthe
old Santa Fe trail, starting from " estport,
Mo-. gave it world wide fame.
THE WORLDS ONLY sANITARIuN.
Prof. Mark Harrington, chief of the o. S,
weather bureau, says: Santa Fe is in the
dricst habitable part of the United States.
This region is extensive, and changes in
form from season to season, but Santa Fe is
always in it.'
1t is situated in charming nook of the
Santa Fe range, and its climate is dominated
by the influence of mountain peaks that
tower nearly $4,000 feet high. Together
with this it lies at an altitude of7015 feet,
and latitude, about the Seth degree north,
that gives it peculiar advantage as a SAN
itarium. The elevation tempers the summer
heats, which naturally should be about that
OF Memphis, Tenn, or Bakersfield, Cal, and
its southern situation reduces the rigors of
winter. As an illustration, during the win
ter of 1893, the daily public concerts in the
plaza were only stopped three times by
weather. and last winter the omission did
not exceed half dozen.
The altitude compels the lungs to work,
and no one in Santa Fe can be accused Of
being 'too lazy to breathe" as great ply
sician expressedit. The rare, ozonated air
permeates every cell Of the lungs, and thus
prevents hemorrhage.
NORMAL TEMPERATURE.
The U. s. Weather observation Office has
been stationed here for % years, and the
following statistical data tells better than
words how even and mild is the climate of
Santa Fe. Taking the summer heat and the
winter cold the following tables show a
most equable and delightful temperature.

book did you say9"
Mrs. Clemens repeated the author and
title of the book. Going to the rear of the
store the clerk soon returned, only to in
quire:
MAY ask you to rereat the name of the
author?"
"Why, Taine," replied Mrs. Clemens,
becoming little annoyed.
Assuming an air of superior knowledge
and looking at his customers with SYM
pathetic smile, he remarked:
Pardon me, madam, but you have the
name little wrong. You mean Twain
not Taine."
