In accordance with the Ordinances NO. 8
& 4 of II January 1908 5 7, the Physician,
who at present is likewise Public Physician
in Christiansted, is salaried with Frcs. l,5OO
yearly, besides which he is to have FIRES. 600
yearly in travelling expenses.
1t is proposed to fix the salary of the
Inspector at Frcs. 1900 yearly i'll view of the
fact that he already is appointed as Inspector
at the Jail and tue institutions for the sick
at Richmond.
After conference with the Colonial Coun-
ellis for St. Croix and for St. Thomas and st.
Jan q Headnurse has been appointed with
a yearly salary of Frcs. 1900 besides a free
dwelling, also 400 Kr. for the voyage out
and the same sum for the final voyage home.
1t is further proposed to give the Head
nurse free grass for one horse. The Head
nurse arrived here at the end of September
1909. and from the 1st Of October 1909 has
been occupied with the arranging OF the
new Asylum and with the preparations for
the removal Of the patients to that establish
ment from the old Asylum.
For the Sick-nurse q salary of Frcs. 900
yearly is proposed, rising after two years
GOOD service to Frcs. 1900 yearly, besides
free dwelling, free board Gt is contemplated
to pay the Head nurse Frcs. z daily to
board the Sick-nurse), free nurses dress
Twill be found entered under the account for
clothing), also Frcs. 10000 for the first
voyage out, in connection with which it Is
remarked that it was necessary to procure
q sick-nurse from Denmark, since no quail
fed person cut here applied for the post,
after it had been duly advertised.
For 2 Oyerlookers and one Nightwatch a
monthly payment of Frcs 50 each is propos.
ed.
II is intended to have the food for the
Patients supplied from the kitchen belonging
in common to the institutions for the sick,
and the staff there must therefore be in
creased by Cook, whose wages it is pro
posed to fix at Frcs. 40 monthly, and l Man,
whose wages it is proposed to fix at Frcs. 80
monthly.
The Asylum was transferred by the Odd
Fellow Order on the 7th Of December 1909,
and o nightwatchman was then appointed for
it to the close of the said month, with a pay
ment OF Frcs. $50 per night.
Medicine is estimated to cost Frcs. 6.25
per month for each patient, which for rs
patients for 3 months gives an expense Of
Frcs. 1,406. %,
Weekly pocket money 1t is proposed, as
hitherto has been the case at the old Leper
Asylum, to give each of the Patients rs Bit
weekly as a reward for good conduct, which
for IS Patients will amount to about Frcs.
25O.O0.
Sundry Expenses includes: Expenses for
lighting, (about $50 Frcs for soap for clean
ing (about 50 Frcs) for washing soap for the
patients (about 30 Frcs for soap for washing
bed clothes and articles of clothing (about 20
Frcs) for wood and coal for such washing
(about 100 Frcs) aud for toilet paper about
100 Frcs) also unforeseen expenses labout
$50 Frcs3
In the calculation of the expenses it has
been assumed that the patients will be able
to attend to the house cleaning clothes wash
ing, watching the sick and the like, without
expense for the public.

We may now take look at some 81 lie

that the dry bulb thermometer had fallen not
quite one degree Fab but when we turn
TO the wet bulb, what a marked descent il
Vhofet 1ne last column of the table sho\ya
lual between the dry and wet bIib thor
mometers there was a difference of oven, ton
degrees instead Of the usual four or five
ueoteeS, anu thus we learn that the mir was
not only cold that morning, but was remarlll-
pIy ufy. Would this account for the feel
ing OF cold which was generally noticed. AND

POSSIBLY 1t would, We must remembar
however, that we cannot rightly con u r,
the relation Of the atmosphere to adaptlb.e

temperature Of the skin g,oater than

there are several othor circumstances
to be taken into account, such rs the CON
dltlon OF the individual, the degree of b!s
exposure, the strength Of the Wind and So
on; but the amount of the yapour in tho AIR
probably exercises d considerable influence IN
this respect.
some reader may remember as against
tins last statement, how cool it often Is after
sh 'wers Of rain but it must not be forgot
ten, That such showers come as u rule from "a
cooler layer of the atmosphere, and to some
extent carry down that lowor temperature to
the surface along with them; in such cases
1t is the temperature Of the lower air which
IS absolutely reduced, SO that the dry as we'll

a column has been added showing the mini
mum temperature. This lowest temperature is
reached before daylight and is recorded on
q specially constructed thermometer. The
reader will see that the recorded tempera-
lures do not much affect the line Of argu-
ment followed above.
In regard to the rain fall of the month it is
curious that the first halt, when strong north
easterly (and generally dry winds were blow
ing, gave US 208 lines, while the latter half.
IN which there was much calm and some light
variable winds, gave ouly So lines, in MI for
the month 264 lines, which, in view Of the fact
that the 81 years average for January is 1871

start for 1910.

the reported attitude Of some Of the
Indian agents who have been travel
ing through the dry belt is enough
to cause good deal of resentment,
and to call for some such statement
as is made by the mayor of Cass
Lake.
He announced that if any attempt
is made to seize and destroy the
property of citizens of his town with
out proper legal proceedings, that
attempt will be resisted with all the
force he can muster. The laws must
be enforced, but in order to enforce
one law, we must not violate others.
If the sale or the possession Of
liquor within a certain territory is
illegal, the violations made to cover
such cases should be punished, and
liquor kept in violation of law should
be seized and destroyed or otherwise
disposed of, according to law.
But for a man to invade private
property without warrant. is intoler-
able. IF an agent of the Indian
bureau may legally search and seize
as many agents are reported to have
done during the past summer, we
have a condition such as has never
yet been tolerated in America.
If, without warrant or evidence OF
authority, an officer can enter prem.
Uses at will to search for liquor, he
can use that privilege whenever and
wherever the within SEXES him. He
can use it for the annoyance of people
whom he dislikes and there is nc
recourse. We do not believe tina,
this right exists.-Grand Forks

DOES IT PAY?

-Four killed and, twenty seriously
injured-three of them probably
fatally-was the price in human flesh
paid for the sixth running of the
Vanderbilt Cup race won in electrify-
ing fashion by Harry Grant, driving
a 120-horse power Alec, covering
the 278.8 miles at an average speed
of 65 is miles an hour, establishing
a new American record"
Add to the above news item the
fact that Larue Vredenburgh, rs
years old, was also killed in an auto
mobile race on the state fair ground
at Springfield. Illinois, on Saturday.
His head was completely severed
from his body.
Here we have five persons killed
in one day by men who are try
ing to send great vehicles OF
tremendous speed at faster clip
than has been gone by anything
on earth excepting, as Basney
Oldhelds if announcer would say,
"a bullet shot from a gum"
1t is true that new records were
established but is sport which
leaves in its wake dying and dead,
of sufficient value to tie human
race to justify so great cost.
1t is not unlikely that the last
Vanderbilt cup race has been run.
From its inception tragedies have
marked each years ev~nts but
never before has its horrors been
so great as those IN the contes
just held.
