GYPSY MOTH
 IN THE STATE
PROF. BRETON, ENTOMOLOGIST, TAKES SQUAD OF MEN WHO KILL 2.OOO EGG CLUSTERS IN wALLINGFORD.

What threatened to have been a most destructive invasion of the dreaded gypsy moth has been unearthed by Prof. William E. Britton, the state cultural Experimental station. within the confines of the boroughs of Wal lingford.
 With a squad of four men. and with the assistance of two men, furnished by the warden of the bor ough. sys- tematic attack was made upon this notorious pest on various trees to the east of the railroad tracks there yes terday and by nightfall over 2,000 egg clusters of the dreaded menace had been destroyed The hunt will go on today and if it is found that the moth had intrenched itself thor oughly in that section a determined warfare will be carried on for its ex- termination.
 The Gypsy moth is one of the worst pests known to agriculturists. Inn ported from Europe 1t has committed extensive depredations in the states of Maine, New Hampshire and Massachu- setts and the latter state has spent about s2,O00.O00 in efforts to extermi- nate if.
 This is the second appearance of the moth in this state. it having mani fested itself to an important extent in Stonington two years ago, and having created much alarm by its ravages there.
 It is supposed that the Wallingford invasion has come down from Massa- chusetts. The egg clusters were first discovered on the trees there last Sat urday by a factory operative while on his way home, and who had seen them at his former home in Massachusetts. He reported the matter to the warden of the borough and the latter notified Prof. Britton.
 The caterpillars from the gypsy moth hatch out from the egg clusters early in May and they will eat the foliage of any tree. including evergreens, ex- cepting the ash. They denude a tree so thoroughly as to speedily cause it's death. For this reason they are espe- cially feared. 70
 The egg clusters were being killed yesterday by being sprayed with a so- lution of creosote. oil and lamp-black which is very destructive to this form Of animal life.
 The larvae has an especial fondness for maple and apple trees. The egg clusters are found for the most part on the under side of the large limbs of trees. and on tho sheltered places on

INFANT DEATHS
 IN STATE HIGH
DIR. TOWNSEND POINTS OUT THERE ARE $500 IN CONNEC- TICUT ANNUALLY, UNDER ONE YEAR OF AGE.

In the monthly report of the state board of health which has just been issued for the month of November, pr. Joseph H. Townsend, secretary, takes occasion to make some remarks on the topic of interest medically and socially during the month through the big conference held in New Ha- ven in the early part of the month, that is on infant mortality. Dr. Townsend has the following to say:
 While so much is being said and written concerning infantile mortal ity, it is we'll to consider what that mortality amounts to in Connecticut, to seek the cause and consider the remedies that should be applied in order to lessen it. Thirty-five hun dred infants under one year of age die annually; this amounts to about twenty per cent. of the total death total births for a year, and of this number nearly one-half die under the age of three months, the common causes given being premature birth three months the more common ca uses are gastro-intestinal disor- ders.
 Concerning the very large death rate in infants under three months old, many of whom live only a few days or hours, also the fact that there are more than a thousand still-births recorded each year, which are not enuH1eTaLeQ- WlIn elIneT the DlrrnS or death, it is evident that we must go step further in seeking the cause and apply the remedy to the mother as well as to the child. Something should be done for her for the child's sake, if not for her own, Babies are often found i'll nourished because the mother is too poor to buy proper food fonherself, and means must be found te obtain this while she is nursing her baby. A healthy child is not to be expected as the offspring of intemperate underfed parents. Many mothers endanger the lives of their children by working too hard during the latter months of preg- nancy and too frequent childbearing among the poor is. also cause of debility in the mother and her in fant- These are matters in which charity organizations and social work CTS are interested, and with whom health officers should always be ready to co-operate.

Miss Anne Morgan, daughter of J.

Miss Morgan is noted for her many philanthropies. As sociated with her in the cause are Mrs c. P. Huntington. Mrs. O. IT. F. Belmont and several other women of vast wealth. These women assert that the immigration and factory laws are frequently violated by some of the manufacturers who let out their work to contractors. who in turn employ immigrant girls at the lowest possible wages. Efforts will be made to bring these alleged abuses to the attention of the federal authorities.

 OF NEEDED HALF MILLION

Hartford. Dec. 16.-Trinity has cut down the amount necessary to be rais- ed on its endowment fund to secure all pledges from $130.OOO to s114,0O0 since Dec. 1. This means that if the next two weeks are as productive of contributions as the first two in this month, the half million will be its own. Hartford has already subscribed nearly S90000 to the fund by it's resi- dent alumni and friends. and letters urging others who cherish ths pros perity and good offices of Trinity are being sent to all who may give. Pro- lessor John J. McCook, the chairman of the fund committee. is devoting nearly all his time to an effort to make the project a success.

DROPS DYING
 ON HIS TRAIN
VETERAN CONDUCTOR TILDEN OF GILT EDGE SUCCUMBS TO HEART DISEASE ON WAY TO NEW HAVEN.

As the famous Gilt Edge fast ex- press from Boston to New York drew into Union station at New Haven last night, it carried with it in dying con dition the man who has for many trips presided over it as conductor. Scarcely had the train reached that city when Edward Tilden, one of the oldest conductors on the New Haven road, expired of heart disease, with which he had been stricken while the train was passing through Branford. Surrounded by a throng of anxious and sympathetic passengers on this famous express, Tilden~lay in one of the passenger cars struggling for life while the train attempted to mske New Haven, where medical aid could be secured pr. William J. SheeIlan lance called to the station to meet the train, but when Dr. Sheehan arrived he found the aged conductor already dead Tllden was over 70 years of age and was one of the veteran con ductors of the company.
 As his express bound for New York came through Branford last night it was halted near that town. by a sig nal. Conductor Tilden left his train to inquire into the cause of the de- lay and was walking about in tf1e dark when the train started up. He had to hustle then to get aboard and was compelled to make the train on the run while it was going This over-exertion told on his weakened heart and few minutes later as he was passing through one of the cars he was stricken and fell over There was consternation and excitement among the passengers when they saw the conductor fall He was quickly picked up and what was possible was done for him as the train hastened into New Haven It arrived there shortly after nine o'clock, but before anything more could be done for the conductor he was dead
 Tilden belonged in Boston, which has been his residence for years. 1 He was quite well known among the efn- ployes of the road because of his length of employment andx in ac-. acknowledgement of his long and faith full service he had one of the best trains on the road, the through trip between New York. and Boston

Sheep Flocks of West viii Be Pro-

Animals, According to
Federal AdVices

WASHINGTON Oct. "A success
full barrier against the inroads of the
coyote in the sheep flocks of the west
has been found, it is believed, in the
coyote proof fence, experiments with
which have been carried on during the
last year by a special agent for the
forest service at Billy Meadows on the
Wallowa national forest reserve In
Oregon, according to a bulletin made
public today by the forest service
Coyotes came to the fence nearly
every night for ninety days, according
to the report, and occasionally followed
it for miles, but not one succeeded IN
passing over or under except when the
snow was deep enough to give them an
easy jump. A..
Summarizing the experiments for the
season of 1908, the report says:
"The coyote proof fence was entlrely
successful as a protection against coy
otes: not successful against bears; is
still problematical against the bopcats
not successful against lynxes and OF
course not successful against badgers.
THE damage, however, from bears
bobcats and 1ynxes is small when
compared with the large losses from
the coyotes"
