Hastings was deferred by the state in
sane board at its secret meeting yester-
day. The board, according to the con-
sored news given out by President Mason.
decided to leave the selection Of officers
for the new institutions until a special
meeting which win be held in about ten
days. AS the Hastings asylum will not
be ready for occupancy for some time
no appointments will be made for some
time to come, with the exception Of the
important positions. I'VE have decided"
said he, that the superintendent of each
institution will have the same duties as
steward and purchasing agent of the
other institutions, besides being the ad-
ministrative officer of the asylum. The
other officers will be treasurer, matron,
physician, and think about six or eight
attendants for the first hundred patients:
When the additional wings are put on
for the accommodation Of the second
hundred patients the staff will be in
creased accordingly. We elected no Of
f1cers today and with enc or two excep-
lions we have received no applications
for the positions to be- filled.
Both asylums will be filed up from the
three state insane hospitals. Transfers
of patients will be made upon the recon-
mendation Of the authorities at the hos
pitfalls. When both buildings are COM
pleted each asylum will accommodate 200
people, making in all 400 that the new in
stitutions will care for.
THE rules which were adopted by the
board to govern the administration Of
the new asylums define the duties Of the
officers and are in general very much the
same as those which prevail at the big
hospitals suited to meet the conditions
at the smaller institutions"

iast evening they discovered their effects
tUmoIed about in disorder, and q close
investigation showed that burglars had

rosers. From Mr.. Towards dressing
room the thieves carried off wearing ap-

room.
The robbery occurred some time after
the performance Wednesday evening. At
that time the dressing rooms were Intact
and the keys in place on a board, where
they are kept. There is a special watch
man at the opera house at night, and this
fact leads to the belief that the robbery
may have possibly taken place yesterday
morning. How the burglars secured an
entrance to the stage is uncertain, unless
they found the stage entrance open, for
there is no evidence of the doors having
been forced. In Mr.. Towards dressing

ceed1ngs Against New lee HousaS
Inc resolution repeating the one grant
ing permission to the Peoples Ice comma
ny 10 erect an ice house on Smith evenuo
between Third and Chestnut streets
was discussed for an hour before
the committee on streets of the hoard
ot dIoermen yesterday afternoon
bernard zimmerman, of the Peoples
ice company, contended that as the conn
Gil had granted permission and the com
pony had proceeded to purchase lumber
ana corrugated iron and commenced tine
erection OF the structure the permission
should not be rescinded.
Herman Oppenheim, appearing for the
property owners and residents in the vi
entity of the projected Ice house, pro-
tested that the resolution was illegal
and the structure would be an eyesore
to the residents and owners in the vi
cinity.
Robert H. Seng, who represented prop
erty opposite the ice house, protested.
and said that the company had just re-
moved its houses which had stood for
twenty-six years. The erection of new
ones would damage the improved prop
erty in the neighborhood. The commit
tee recommended the repeating resolution
for indefinite postponement without a
dissenting vote Attorney Oppenheim
threatens to begin injunction proceedings
to prevent the erection of the structure.
The resolution vacating Grace street on
the south side of the Milwaukee tracks
and the opening of a new street on the
north side of the tracks, from Victoria
street to Pleasant avenue, was recon-
mended to pass.
The ordinance for the fast interurban
line was laid over. The ordinance intro
duced by Aid. Reeves, directing the street
railway company to operate line on
Randolph street, from Seventh to Ham
line avenue, was recommended for pass
age.

for 1t was under the auspices of the
health and sanitation committee of the
league that the lectures were delivered.
Mrs. Condo Hamlin presided.
Miss Ellen H. Richards, instructor of
sanitary chemistry in the Massachusetts
school of technology, was the first speak
er.

Miss Richards scored women who per-
sisted in sweeping the streets with their
long gowns. and state the fact that
many Of these women were still alive
was only because their naturally robust

said that one cause for the prevalence
Of typhoid fever in large cities in the fall
was caused by people bringing fever
germs back from the country with them.

with the garbage question. In New York,
he said, each householder had to assert
the garbage. Thus sorted, the garbage
was collected and taken to ;crematories
and each assortment was so utilized that
there was absolutely no cost connected
with Its disposition. He stated, how
ever, that It was only in city the size
of New York that this could be done

on similar basis a plan might be ar
ranged for the disposition Of garbage and
