Newnort,s Scarlet Fever.

Newport, r. 1.-The large number
Of scarlet fever cases in Newport was
the occasion of n heated discussion at
a recent meeting of the public school
committee. The board of health or
dered an examination of the hands
and feet of all the scholars in the
schools and to this one parent OBJ
jected, sending a certificate that the
child was in good health. This certi-
ticate the board of health refused to
accept saying that board physician
must make the examination.
The right of the board of health to
exclude child from the schools for
this reason was questioned at the
meeting, the claim being made that all
physicians are licensed by the state
and their certificates should be ac'
cepted. On the other hand it was
stated that the board of health is
responsible for the health of the city
and should not be hindered in its
work. No action was taken in the
matter.

York overshadowed the legislative
committee investigation on Dec. l3.
While the committee was lnquirlng
into the conduct of the Prudential
life insurance company and the Met
ropolitan life insurance company.
George w. Perkins resigned at first
vice-president and chairman of the
finance committee of the New York
life insurance company.
He was succeeded as vice president
by Alexander q. Orr, president of the
New York city rapid transit commits
sion, and as chairman of the finance
committee by John Claflin, head of the
H. b. Clafin company. Mr.. Perkins Is
member of the firm of ]. p. Morgan

Another important move in the sit
uation was the election by the trus-
tees of the Mutual life insurance com
pany recently of Charles A. Peabody
to succeed Richard A MaCirds- as
president of that company at $4,000 a
year. Mr.. McCurdys salary was $780,,

Llahtshlp Crew Without Pay.

Westinghouse Metcalf OF
the department of commerce and la
Dor recently said that 1t was with pro-
found regret that the lighthouse board
furloughed without pay Capt. Jorgen-
sen and his crew of relief lightship No
50, which vent down off Nantucket
Monday, after their heroic efforts tC
save the vessel, but that such action
was due to circumstances over which
neither they nor himself had control
the law absolutely prohibiting the pay
ment of any salaries to men not per-
forming actual duty, the pay of officers
and sailors ceasing upon a ship being
lost or meeting with any other disas-
ter through which their services could
not be utilized.
Every effort is being made to find
employment for the men among the
other lightships, and they all will be
given preference in future appoint
mentS.
Capt. Sebree, naval secretary OF the
lighthouse board. doubted not that
congress would provide an appropria.
ton for the personal effects of Capt
Jorgensen and his men. Among gov.
4rnment officials here the greatest
sympathy Is felt for them.
A report from Commander w. A
Marshall, U. S. NJ, Inspector of the
iecond lighthouse district has been re-
elved by the lighthouse board. Com
mander Marshall praises Capt. Gibbs
master of the tender Azalea of New
3edford, for his ready response, "aI
Jnce, sir" to his inquiry about how
.con the Azalea could be got ready tC
20 to the lightship's assistance.
