As was stated in the Morning News
at the close of the year DR.. Drummer
is very we'll pleased with the present
health conditions Of the city and the
record for 1903 will compare favorably
with those of other cities. few more
white people died. but there was de-
crease in the number OF deaths among
negroes. All in all the health officer
will be able to make a very satisfac-
tory report to the Mayor and Alder
men, although just how many Savan-
nahans were born during the year is
a matter of no little doubt.

ed this life on the evening of Jan. 9.
at 1905 O'Clock. His great spirit has
taken its flight to join the hosts above,
and there to dwell with those other
great captains, Lee Jackson, Johnston,
and others we might mention. Though
the body of our leader is soon to be
laid in its last narrow resting place.
his memory will ever live in the hart
of every true Confederate.

NO BIRTH RECORD
PRoCRAsTINATING PHYSICIANS DE-
LAY HEALTH OFFICERS REPORT.
MAY GO INTO COURTS.
1T Is ALLEGED THAT ONE DOCTOR
WILL REFUSE INFORMATION.

City Ordinance Requires Physicians
to Report 10 Health officer When
They Are Attending in Cases of
Birth-Because Several Have Fnil-
cd to Come Up to Requirements of
Ordinance DIR. BFunner's Annual
Report Has Not Yet Been Com
pIIed-Onending Physicians May
BE Put on Police Docket.
Procrastination on the part of sew
eral Savannah physicians has caused
delay in the compiling of the annual
report of Health officer w. F. Brun-
ner.
This is the only one of the depart
ment reports for 1903 that has not
reached Mayor Myers. Some of the
doctors have failed to keep the health
officer supplied with data on births.
This item in vital statistics forms an
important part of the regular report
of the health officer.
There is a city ordinance which re-
ouires physicians to report all births
TO the health officer, but two or three
of the doctors procrastinated. Not I'M
ill DR.. Drummer began compiling his
report for 1903 was the ordinance, and
the necessity of obeying it, made plain
TO the doctors who had neglected TO do
what was expected of them. With one
accord the beIated practitioners agreed
to send in the birth reports without
further delay.
May Refuse to Comply.
But it has reached the efrs of the
health officer that one of the physi
clans has stated that he will refuse
TO comply with the ordinance, and
that the city can take such action as
il sees fit. He is alleged to have said
that an ordinance requiring physicians
to report all births which they attend.
is unconstitutional, and that on this
theory he will refuse to make a report
The fact remains that the report OF
this physician on the matter of births
has not yet been received, and letter
has been addressed to him on the sub
ject.
In the event that the claim Is really
set up by any of the physicians who
have been slothful in following out the
requirements of the ordinance. the mat
ter will find its way into the courts.
Although DR.. Drummer has been pa
tient he appears to have reached the
point where patience ceases to be a
virtue, and II is more than probable
that at least one case will be entered
on the police blotter by the health de-
partment. in which the charge will be
for falling to report the birth of ------,

Confident of Success.

Miss Stafford, when seen by a
Morning News representative, was
confident of the success of the move
ment. In speaking of the matter she
said:
1--WE never go into these things I'M
til the ground has been thoroughly
canvassed. 1 have spent considerable
time in Savannah and all with whom
I have talked have recognized the
need of such an institution here. Its
success is almost assured.
I'VE haven established associations
in eighty-five of the large cities of
the country. and we have yet to hear
of one which has failed. The associa-
ton in Atlanta is self-sustaining in
every way, and there is no reason
why an equally prosperous one should
not be established in Savannah"
