DEATH OF MRS JULIA HAM, FORMER
MATRON AND SUPERINTENDENT OF
GRACE HOSPITAL, NEW HAVEN.
Mrs Julia B. Ham, former matron
and superintendent of nurses of Grace
hospital in New Haven, died on Fri
day in Woodbury., where she has re-
sided since her retirement from the
hospital. Mrs Ham had been in i'll
health for some time, but a favorable
rally gave encouragement to the hope
that she would recover. A few days
ago an intestinal trouble developed
that detied all treatment, and al
though she received the best of atten-
ton and medical skill, the attack re-
suited fatally. An autopsy was per-
formed on the body by DR. NJ. J. Adams
of New Haven and DR. H. S. Hartman
Of this place. 1t was found that death
was due to a complication of diseases
and that nothing could have saved
her. Mrs Ham was matron Of Grace
hospital from 1893 to September, 1900,
and during that time endeared herself
to many who were inmates of the in
stitution, by her care and attention
for their welfare. She went to Wood
bury as the housekeeper for DR. w. H.
Sage, who removed from New Haven
several months ago. She was Al years
of age and leaves son, Allen Ham of
New Haven, and two sisters. The re-
mains were taken in charge by Under
taker Swan and on Saturday conveyed
to the train at Southbury and taken
by the evening train to New Haven.
The funeral took place in that city on
Monday.

SERIOUS FOREST FIRE.
There has been quite a few forest
| fires in this place within the past week.
Last Sunday there was one up on Gal
low hill. 1t burned over 200 acres Of
land. The only thing that prevented
it from coming down into the hollow
and destroying buildings was the road
way. There was large gang of men
fighting the fire to prevent it from
spreading. Two young lads were dis
covered setting fire to the woods near
Pine Mountain, but the fire was imme-
diately put out. If it had not been,
there would have been several build
ings burned down. 1t is hoped that
an example will be made of them for it
is time that such work is stopped.

Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heat is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through Veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to tke kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ming in kidney trouble.
