The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1910-11-17

Senator-elect Donovan of Norwalk, received a greater plurality than ever before. though his district is usually classed as normally Republican. It isn't difficult to find the reason. His record shows him ever upon the peo- ple's side, and he doesn't withhold cen sure even from members of his own party when they go astray.

''All patients who have been resi-

some clinical signs of physical fall
ure, are examined for the purpose
of determining the presence or abb

nations are placed upon the same

THE tests which are given in adj

are either Calmette's or Moro's tu-
berculine test. Calmette's test is
tuberculine applied to the ocular
conjunctive; if the reaction is pos
tive, we have a conjunctivitis de-
veloping in the eye used as a test,
which may last for a number of
hours to one or two days.
"In the Moro's test, an ointment
of tuberculine is well rubbed into
the skin over a small area; this

BLAME is SHIFTED.
Secretary Heike of Sugar Trust
Declares Havemeyer En-
gineered Fraud.
HE KNEW NOTHING OF 1T
Claims All Acts Connected With I'm

Late Head of Company.

New York, June Testimony
which led direct to the grave of Henry
o. Havemeyer, former head OF the
American Sugar Refining company,
was given on the witness stand yes
terday by Charles r. Heike, secretary
of the company, who is charged With
conspiracy to defraud the government
on underweights of sugar.
Heike's defense opened yesterday
and his counsel tried to shift all re-
sponsibility for the conduct Of the COM
pany's affairs upon its late president.
In the defense of Ernest w. Ger
bracht, superintendent of the COM
pany's Williamsburg refinery at
Brooklyn, and James F. Bendernagle,
former cashier. who are also on trial,
only hints were made in Havemeyer's
direction. But Heike's story put the
responsibility upto his dead chief df-
rect
Short Term Would Mean Life.
George S. Graham, who made the
opening address for Heike, said he
regretted bringing discredit to a man
now dead, but circumstances demand
ed it. Heike, he said, was at period
in life where a prison sentence, even
if short, would mean life term.
Therefore, he declared, he felt justi-
fed in bringing Havemeyer into the
case.
Heike Immediately put responsible
ity for practically all his acts up to
Havemeyer, saying the latter had been
in direct control of the Williamsburg
refinery. Time and again in explain
ing his business dealings, ne declared
he had acted "at the direction OF Mr..
Havemeyer' 1t was also brought out
through a letter written by Have
meyer to Gerbracht that Heike had
called Havemeyer's attention to the
''liberalfty of the government sugar
weighers.'
Did Not Know of Scales.
He denied any knowledge of the
tricky scales on the docks and said
he did not even know the company
had scales there, but thought they be-
longed to the government.
One by one the witness took up his
letters previously offered in evidence
by the government and explained their
meaning, always as having no relation
to the frauds.

20 acres have been planted in vege-
tables and they are above the aver
age of gardens in advancement in
growth. All the land seems in fine
working condition and the farm
superintendent is justly proud of the
showing the land makes in what is
cultivated. He also takes great
pride and interest in the stock. They
have 15 work horses, but more are
needed. There are 33 mich cows,
mostly of the Holstein breed, and
they want about IS more. 1t costs
the institution close to $4,000 per
year for milk aside from what they
have. They have at present 40
breed cows, about 200 young pigs
and 100 shoats which will be ready
for the fall market.
In the fowl department there is
on hand and in prospect $50 ducks,
100 turkeys and between 1000 and
1000 chickens.
Between so and rs patients can
work intelligently on the farm in it's
various departments and they are
most comfortably housed and board

attention was called to the increase

Hospital.

cent Survey of Institution and
Its Surroundings.
GREAT CARE is OBSERVED

Following is the last report of the
board of visitors in reference to the
Watertown hospital for the insane:
To the charities commission,
Springfield, Ill. - Gentlemen: On
Wednesday. May 4, the board of Wis
itors for the WATERFOWL state hos
pltal met at the institution in regu-
lar monthly session, and herewith
presents its fourth report since ap-
pointment:
IT, was agreed that in view of the
great interest now being taken
throughout the whole world as to the
care and treatment of patients af-
ficted with tuberculosis that we
would inspect the methods and in
quire into the treatment of such
cases at this hospital and we were
glad to find that the management is
not lacking, in our judgment, in
thorough knowledge of all the ad-
vanced methods of treatment, and
in the application, so far as their
facilities permit.
In the building in which the wo-
men are segregated there are "a pa
tients afflicted in some degree with
tuberculosis and there are two at
tendants. Their beds are clean and
rooms airy, and there are annexes
watch afford for sleeping all the adj
Vantages that could be claimed by
a"tent colony. Every patient is daily
looked after and condition noted
carefully.
At quite a distance from the main
building there is an enclosure of
about ten acres of grassy and undu-
lating ground, where ~ men have
their quarters; some of these are
epileptics, the others in some degree
of tuberculosis. We noticed no ex-
treme cases as in the women's de-
partment. There is quite a large
general building and number of
cottages on the grounds, so that in
no sense is there any budding to-
gether of any number. Capable at
PENDANTS look after them and guide
them in their amusements. They
all seemed to be really enjoying life
and no complaint came from a sim
gle one to either of the committee,
nor a desire to be released. They
also get the daily attention of the
medical staff.
Physicians Wen Informed.
From this inspection we went into
the hospital office and conversed
with the physicians on the subjects
under consideration in particular
and found them thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with all and much more than
the laymen readers who try to in
form themselves along those lines as
to improved methods and best
thoughts on the subject. We can
not do better than to insert here
the substance of the conversation
with the physician which we asked
to be expressed in writing:
For convenience we divide the
patients into two classes, those who
are recently admitted and those who
have been for some time residents
of the hospital.
''All newly admitted patients are
given a very thorough physical ex-
animation. Should there be any
thing found about the chest even re-
motely suggesting the possibility of
tuberculosis, separate and very
searching examination of the chest
is made and the results reported on
q follow-up form, so that two his
