PREX HAD TO PAY IN.
Found His Yale-Harvard Baseball
Pass Was Not Good.

New Haven, Conn, June 7.-President-
elect Hadley of Yale university paid his
dollar bill to see the Yale-Princeton base
ball game like any other Yale enthusiast.
He is the first Yale president to witness
a Yale baseball game in years, and it was
discouraging for him to be told az the
sued by the Yale management was no
good.
1t seems that Manager Brooke decided
to make the complimentary tickets issued
to the faculty this year invalid for the
Princeton and Harvard contests The pro-
fessors who were able to see Mr.. Brooke
and get special cOmplimentarieS for yes
terday'S game did
President Hadley appeared at the gate
and presented his ticket. He told
that 1t was not good. He was somewhat
taken aback, but promptly marched to
the box office, paid his money and was
finally admitted to the contest.

An Explanation of ''Negligence."
State Board of Health


To the Editor of the State Journal:
In a recent issue are some statements.
that for the sake of truth and for pub
lie information need corrections; Official
Neglect-State Board of Health Toll
crates a Nuisance" etc.
1t might be an advantage in some
respects if the laws clothed the state
board and other boards of health with
police and executive power Many
nuisances here, and elsewhere in the
state, of the kind complained of and of
some other kinds also. might be then
abated promptly. But the health
boards have to depend upon other
branches of government to enforce their
counsel and rules.
That the board of health, nor the
secretary, has not neglected to call at
tention to the condition complained of.
we will state that petition drawn up
in the office of the secretary of the state
board and signed by nearly all the Off
GERS and employees on the floor of the
basement, is a fact, and that action
was taken on the same the following
from the minutes of the executive
council, will show:
Sept 26, 1898
1.-THE repairs necessary in the closets
in the state house were ordered"
Since that time attention has been
called time and again to the condition
of the closets. So far, we think, the
sanitary department of the state has
done its full duty; and we were fully
informed that complete change and
great improvements would be made as
early as possible. This work we know
is being pushed rapidly to completion,
although the appropriation for the same
is not yet available.
The executive council is quite COM
petent to take care of itself in this mat
ter: but it is only fair to say, (and we
believe in the fullest fairness,) that the
authorities are doing their utmost to
remedy completely, and as rapidly as
possible, the condition which all knew
existed, and all desired to remove.
Respectfully,
H. u. GILL,
Secretary State Board of Health
THOMAS STANLEY
Superintendent of State House.

Nine. Yale's
Advice

Clean and purify out of your body all
the poisons and dangerous ingredients
that have found their way into your
blood.
What are the great cleansing and pur-
flying organs of the body for, if not to
keep your whole system clean, pure,
fresh, natural and healthy?
When they are clogged. dirty and
sluggish from poison and impurity,
what can you expect but disease and
ugliness?
Dirt is poison, and poison is disease.
Dirt in your blood is the deadliest kind
of poison.
