The appointees of the new Board OF
! Health took charge OF the Harbor Re-
ceiving Hospital yesterday. Drs g. q.
! Thompson, H. E. Morrison and w. h
Dorr succeeded Drs; Fitzgibbon. Won der
! Leith and Fine. If the new surgeons
| make as good a record as the retiring men
! and their assistants the water front Will
! be more than satisfied with them. Mrs.
| p J. Eddy succeeded Mrs. Annie Andrew
| as day matron. A more obliging or moro
! competent matron than Mrs. Andrew
| could hardly be found. and 1T seems a
! pity that politics should cause her re-
| moval. During her stay on the front she
made host of friends and. in spite of her
| trying position, not one enemy.
Little Mabel Nelson, aged years, was
treated at the Harbor Hospital yesterday
afternoon bv Drs. Thompson and Rice
! for a broken arm and a sprained wrist
| She and some other children were playing
/ in a vacant house when one of them
pushed Mabel downstairs. The child was

! from there was sent to the hospital.
Jim Turk and Paddy Lynch, two
