The train due at Burlington over the
Rutland road at 1l.40 a. m, was on time
Monday morning for the first time in
two months. This regular delay is by no
means the fault of the Rutland road, as
they make excellent time but the south
ern connections arc very poor.

Physicians Say It is An Advisable Pre-
 caution

Physicians Say It is An Advisable Pre-
 caution.
 Residents of New Haven are warned by physicians to boil the city water be fore using it for drinking purposes in order to guard against a repetition Of the typhoid fever epidemic. The re- cent snows and subsequent thaw has, the physicians say, caused considerable refuse to find it's way into the reser- voirs, and although the water company has exercised precautions it is safer for the public to take little precaution It. self.
 There are at present but one or two cases of typhoid in the city, and they are mild in form. Scarlet fever is prev alent, but that also is in a very mild form Health Officer Wright said yes terday that because of the mildness of the cases it seemed impossible to im- press upon parents and others having charge of the cases the necessity of rigid sanitary precautions to prevent spread of the malady.
 During the month of January there were 46 cases, and during February 39. This s the average number. Diphtheria in a light form is reported from many districts, the total number of cases for February being 16 None of these has been fatal
