Makes An Appeal-Discourses on Malaria
In New Haven, Its True Cause and Alleg-
ed Remedy.
| To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER
At an interview published In your
very ably conducted paper, the presi-
dent of the board of health says he does
not know what causes malaria in this
city unless it be decayed vegetation.
Well, there isn't very much decayed
vegetation in New Haven right now.
| I'll tell him what causes chills and fever
| in this town. One reason is that some
| body is continually digging up the
streets. And right here + would like to
say that these people never put the
street back in the same condition that
| they found it as they are required to
do by law, and as they would do if the
superintendent of streets attended TO
his business. Digging up the streets
releases poisonous gases, and this is a
| fruitful source of malaria.
| Another Is the method, or lack of
method in which the streets are water
| ed They are soaked into mud, the
hot sun pours down upon them and
more poisonous gas is generated. The
remedy is good, clean, asphalt streets
| There is just as much filth and dirt in
a brick or block stone pavement as on
a Telford pavement, where there is a
space between bricks and blocks, where
streets are neglected as ours are.
| Malaria or chills and fever is a gold
mine to the doctors, but misery to the
victim. There Is not a doctor in New
] Haven that cam effect a permanent
cure. But all say change will cure.
WE'LL what's the matter with removing
| the cause.-the filthy rotten dust and
mud, Why is it that the residents of
| this rich, beautiful city are obliged to
| tolerate such a disgraceful and intoler-
able nuisance. Water the streets from
to a. m. and we will have neither
dust or mud. Give us asphalt streets
right now. The residents of Chapel
and Orange streets have already indi-
Gated their choice by petition 20 the
court of common council to pave those
streets with asphalt
| Why in the world don't they get to
work and do something? The street

Well, they visited a brick paved city,
| the home of the brick makers, and one
of the committee is a brick dealer
| Now the fact is there are miles of as
phalt pavements where there are yards
of brick. Why did they not visit Buff
falo, or New York, where they continue
to lay asphalt, and learn little about
asphalt. There are in this town 1000
bicycle riders, gentlemen, taxpayers and
good citizens, besides the hundreds of
nice teams. The majority of these pre-
fer asphalt. and they know which is
best for their purpose. All of these are
voters. So "a word to the wise is
| sufficient" There will be soon an or
ganization formed in this city called a
federation of drivers and riders of the
| bicycle, who propose to be a power in

Of this city of being selected of opening

As she recalled the past, and tried to
penetrate the future, smile of supreme
satisfaction passed over her honest face
as she remembered that her life's work
would be perpetuated.
The room in which she sat contained
hundreds of volumes of records; and,
turning to her daughter, she said,
"My daughter, this room, as you well
know, contains the records of my life's
work, in which for many years you have
so diligently assisted me.
"By earnest application you have COM
passed my methods; and it is a happi-
ness to think that when leave, the
glorious work will, through you, go on.
1.-THE mission is noble one. Do as I
have done: never permit woman's APP
peal to go unheeded.
"These records tell of every case ever
submitted to me; and it is my wish that
the facts they contain shall in time prove
a much-needed education to the women
of the world"
Thus did Lydia E. Pinkham hand over
to her daughter, Mrs. Charles II. Pink
ham, what may be termed the salvation
of her sex; and that wonderful remedy,
India e. Pinkhdm's Vegetable Com
pound, which all druggists consider as
standard as -four, goes on redeeming
hundreds of women from the fearful
consequences Of female diseases.

Much is being said Just now about
the proposed payment of claims by the
town selectmen under the soldiers boun-
ty act passed by the last legislature,
and it is asserted that enough of these
claims will be presented to the New
Haven selectmen to about bankrupt
the town. Every town in the state APP
pears to be threatened in the same
way. One claim agent, we'll known In
this city, says that he alone has on file
in his office. claims which with interest,
collectable under this law, will amount
to more than 100000. The agents says
these are all good claims and can be
collected under the law.
Pesident Stahl of the board of select
men, although he would mot discuss a
matter in which he might prejudice flu
ture action, said that if the town has
to pay these claims, it will be bank
rupt. Selectman Bretzfelder says he
understands that claims to the amount
of $350,OO0 will be presented, New Ha-
ven, however, is not as badly off as
Meriden, where 1t is said the claims
amount to about 100000. The claims
of the towns in the state will punt to
several millions of dollars.
Some of the attorneys of the city have
looked the matter up and say that there
are serious doubts as to the constitu-
tionality of the act, and there is little
doubt but that the law will bring about
some litigation.
