There Was Decided Change for the Bette

There Was a Decided Change for the Bette
 on the Exchange.
 New York, May 16-There was de- oided change for the better at the stock exchange to-day owing to the execution of large buying orders for foreign account. Strange as 1t may appear the street has accepted the sales of nearly $5,0OO,0OO New York Gen. tral treasury stock by J. P. Morgan & Co. to English capitalists as a bull ar gument. Less than a week ago when it was reported that the Chicago and Northwestern road had placed a suffl- cient amount of bonds to pay for the elevation of it's tracks in Chicago the whole market sold off.
 To-day the announcement that the Central had sold block of stock acted as a fiillip and nearly everything on the list moved up. Another anomaly was the buoyancy of the grangers in the face of doleful reports concerning the crops. These stocks and the Wander bilts were the key note to the market and figured for 99,246 shares in @ grand total of 394094 shares. New York Gen. tral rose to SB to 104, Canada South ern 1% to 55A, Big Four 2 to 45 Michi- gan Central 11a to 102%, Lake Shore 1A to 147h, Nickel Plate common 21 to 181a, Nickel Plate second preferred 1A to 33h, St. Paul 21s to 67%, Bur lington and Quincy 21a to 50, Northwest 3 to 100, Rock Island 2 to 691s, and Omaha 11R to STA,
 Great Northern preferred on reports that President Hill had obtained con- trol of the Northern Pacific bound up ii points to 132. MT. Hill is expected in this city tomorrow and pending definite statement from him conserva- lives were inclined to hold off. The general list was inclined to lag until the Vanderbilts and grangers devel- oped activity and then the shorts as well as operators who have been look ing for al reaction turned in and bought. Notable gains scored In the inactive list were Tennessee Coal and Iron pre- ferred to S5 and Wells, Fargo &s Go, 5% to 109%. Speculation closed strong in tone Net changes show advances of A@3as per cent, the latter in New York Central.
 The railway and miscellaneous bond market was active and strong. Sales were $8, 4S6,oOO against $2,799,OOO yester- day.

THE HEAnrH or THE STATE.

1 Health Authorities Should Have Taken More Precautions in New Milford.
 Dr. c. A. Lindsley, secretary of the state board of health, in his report for
 the month of April, reviews the epi- denies now prevalent in the state in the following language:
 The month of April was notable for several epidemics in various parts of the state, one reported by Health Off, ficer Fitzgfbbons of scarlet fever in Bridgeport, originating in public school. It was necessary to close the school
 "Another of scarlet fever reported by pr. H. D. Wilcox, health officer of Windham, in which he thinks there may have been 500 cases, although only 281 were reported to him. Notwith- standing the extensive spread of the disease, there have been but few deaths, so mild is the type of the disorder at this time.
 'Dr. Congdon, health officer of Sa- lem, reports scarlet fever developed one year after exposure The probable fact is a recent exposure to some wear ing apparel that had not been disin- fected. Whooping cough Is epidemic in East Haddam and New Canaan.
 "The most severe epidemic of typhoid fever of which there is any record in Connecticut, is now in progress in Stamford. Thus far more than 200 cases have occurred in town of about ,000 inhabitants. Careful investlga- ton of it's origin is being made, and In due time will be published. The evl- denee at present seems conclusively that the disease was spread from in- fected milk, and that the milk be- came infected by washing the milk cans with water from a highly polluted well. How the special infection got into the well has not been definitely determined, but the close proximity of two privy vaults are very suggestive.
 'Nrhere could not we'll be a more convincing illustration of the import ance of some authoritative supervision of tbe ways and methods of milk pro- duction for public use. So long ago as 1881, fifty typhoid epidemics from in- fected milk had been traced in Eng land and now all English dairies are subject to the supervision and control in g, sanitary sense, of health officials.
 Another typhoid epidemic appeared in New Milford in the latter part of April. These cases also were among the customers of a single milk supply.
 'In this outbreak the physicians of the town neglected to report their cases to the health officer, on the excuse that they did hot know the disease was ty- phoid fever. Hence the extent of the epidemic was not recognized until it attracted public attention. Immediate reports to the health officer and prompt of the sale of the infected | milk would probably have prevented a mart of the cases" !"

mic poisons Another suggests cover ing the uncofflined body in the grave with quicklime to hasten the process of decomposition; but it is difficult to see how this would be any less revolting to the feelings of friends than is crema- ton by the present scientific and decor ous method. The ancient form of crem- alton or fire burial the "Feuerbestat- tung" of the ancient Germans, and the funeral pyre of which so much is writ ten in the classics, was disgusting and open to many of the objections now urged by earth burial. The corpse placed upon a pile of wood, the "pyre," " gave forth the most nauseating smells, to counteract which expensive gums and essences were consumed with it in extravagant quantities, while with rich flames and hired tears they solemnized their obsequies.
 Modern cremation is stripped of all these objectionable features. The body Is totally consumed in an hour or two at most, leaving only a few pounds of harmless residuun, and all without the least odor or offense to the most fastid- ious sense.
 The problem is, given a dead body, sure in few days to become dangerous to the living how shall we dispose of it reverently and with absolute safety to survivors, both now and hereafter for ever? The answer is by fire, all-puri- flying fire, the element which when un- controlled is no doubt the ruthless and destroying enemy of man, but when under control is his servant and friend. Indeed ''the ethereal fire has been the most sacred symbol in nearly every varying faith of the world of the visible presence of God" The followers of zoroaster are not the only worshippers of the sun. There are 'fFire Worship pers" in our day, and their number in- .creases as the sanitary value of fire becomes known. Fire win destroy ab- solutely every form of disease germ, while no degree of freezing will do so, Pork may be exposed through an arc- tic winter, then thawed and found to propagate the trichinous disease. Cold does not destroy animalcula, for they abound in ice water. Heat will utter ly destroy the sryptogamic spore and annihllate the mycelium, but freezing oillS diLOIuS tHeul d teHlpOl etAy lGSt' All other disinfectants are feeble and in- effectual when compared with the all purifying fire. Indeed many devastat- ing conflagrations, which in cities have been deplored as calamities, have really been blessings in disguise as disinfec- tants and promoters of health The great fire of London, as is well known, terminated the plague and purified that pestilential city. The ancient rabbis tell us that in times of pestilence fires were kept burning in the valley of To- phet to consume the dead and to disin- feet the air.
