HEALTH BOARD TO ASK FOR A
SPECIAL ISOLATION
HOSPITAL
WOULD COST ABOUT $4,000
City Physician Ankcr Tells What
Sort of a Structure
Would Meet His
Views.

The city health department will ask
that provision be made in the budget for
a special isolation hospital for contagious
diseases. The need of such facility is
urged. and City Physician Anker has ar
guments and plans to present TO the coun-
Gil when the matter comes up. Speaking
Of the proposed facility, DR.. Anker said
to the G e yesterday:
A contagious ward would be provided
for cases of contagious diseases exclusive
ly, such as scarlet fever. smallpox, chick
enpox, diphtheria, erysipelas, etc. and IN
order to care for each patient separately
building under one roof should have
five or six compartments, Or sections,
each having a half-dozen rooms 1t
would be necessary to have an operating
room for the diphtheria cases which re-
qulre surgical treatment, and there sh 2uld
De sleeping room provided for the
nurses, ana a small serving room in each
section. The system Of ventilation should
heat.
1 do not know of a building more diff
cult to locate, but it should be on grounds
near the hospital. Its proximity within
twenty or thirty feet would not be a
menace, as the danger is ONLY when
coming in immediate contact. We have
had a building containing children near
the pest house, but there has been no
SunerlngS, no danger.
My idea for a building for this pur-
pose would be enc In the middle of a
ten-acre lot enclosed with big fence.
what we complain of now is the dilap-
ldatlon and Inconvenience Of the present

answer the needs. 1t would nav the
city to put up a first-class building and

AINIKAHDA WAS BEATEN
EASILY VANQUISHED by THE VS.
TING GOLFERS.

GlenView won the golf match with the
Minikahda club yesterday by IS up. The
visiting team outClassed the Minneapolis
players i'll every part of the game and
but two Of the local men won their
matches. These two were c. T. Jaffray
who defeated w. Holabird Jr. by I'D.
and c. F. Deayer, who won his match
from G. A Thorne by 1 up. The Glen
view team is composed of the strongest
combination Of golfers that has ever play
ed in the Twin Cities.
When the time arrived to tee off every
thing was favorable to good golf. The
afternoon was cool and pleasant. The
wind, although high, was not strong
enough to interfere with the game, and
the links were i'm better condition than
at any time this season. The course had
just been carefully rolled, and the fair
green was as smooth and level as it is
possible to get it. What was most I'M
portant every member of the two teams
felt like playing golf, and not like pot
perhaps three strokes on the round, but
not more.
Before the first nine holes haid been
half covered It was easy to see that the
hands. The local men played hard and
carefully, but the Chicagoans showed a
greater familiarity with the game They
never grew careless or attempted to
press and their short game was stronger
by far than that portion of the Mime
apolis mems play. The sand bunkers,
which had been expected to bother them,
did not effect their game to any appreci-
able extent. They went straight ahead
and made the strokes with as much con-
fdence as if they had been playing over
the water hazards at Golf, Ill It was
noticeable that when a Glenview player
was in doubt as to the exact location Of
hole he would go ahead and find out
just where the flag was before playing
the next stroke, and not trust to direc-
ton given by caddie or a bystander
At the conclusion of the first round
three of the Minneapolis players had a
hole apiece to their credit while the Wis
itors had Is piled up on their side of the
card.
The seni-f1nals in the tournament for
the trophy presented by ]. B. Hudson
were played at Bryn Mawr yesterday aft
ernoon. G. C. Schroyer defeated E. w.
Guilbert by three up and two to play, and
r. Allger defeated w M. Sawyer, who
won his match from Mr. Huntington
earlier in the day, by one up.
Mr.. Schroyer 3outplayed Mr. Guilbert all
the way through the contest YESTERDAY
afternoon. He drove longer and a more
direct ball. and his short approaches were
played in better form. The links were
not in particularly good condition, as the
grass was long and the putting greens
slow, and these things had a tendency to
handicap the players to a certain extent
The finals between Mr.. Schroyer and Mr..
Sawyer will be decided this afternoon.

MANY FIRES IN JUNE.

On the average there are from sixty to

regarded as very large. But there were
many more total losses at that time than
now. 1t is a phrase among the insur-
