MISSION OF THE CLOWN.
Highly EstImabIe, and Barnum X
 Bailey Has Fifty.

The mission of the clown is high ly estimable. He Is the materializa- ton of merriment, and as essential to the circus as the beautiful horses, the riders, and all else which goes to make up the tented performance of to-day. The circus contains uuch of instruction and interest, but 1t must have fun also, and the clowns are de- pended upon to keep up intermttins hlarity. What would the children do at a. clownless circus? The older folks appreciate the daring and skill of the riders, of the aerilist, of the &C., robats, but the youngsters will turn away from the most wonderful feats of skill, strength and agility to watch the funny antics of the clown.
 The clown has kept pace with the progress in other directions. He has evoluted and Is still evolutng. Time was when one clown sutficed for q circus; when an enterprising mana ger engaged four clowns, the fact was emblazoned in big letters on the bills as a great feature of the show.
 Four clowns In the big three-rlns tent of to-day would be lost The Barnum and Bailey Greatest Show on Earth, which comes to New Haven on Thursday, has fifty clowns.

 "Our statistics show that the nor tallty from typhoid fever in this state is about 23 per cent, of the reported cases. As this death rate is about double that which Is considered the usual rate in typhoid it shows a in reporting their cases, which is not credtable to the profession. some al- loWance should of course be made for lack of well defined symptoms in many cases, but the diagnosis can often times be cleared up by blood test which will be made at the state labo- ratory free of charge The prompt reporting of typhoid will often enable the health officer to recognize early some common source of infection and enable him to detect the cause of the trouble. The physician should not only report his case, but should rd- member also that he is the first bar Tier 10 the escape of typhoid baccius to the outside world and should see that disinfection Is begun early in the sick room
 By mortality reports received there were l,2oO deaths during the month of May This is 126 less than in April and l29 less than in May of last year, and 10S less than the aver age number of deaths during May for the five years preceding,
