FREE FROM ILLNESS.
Remarkable Showing Made at Co
Ionial Beach This Summer.

DR.. NJ. B. erosion. president Of the
board of health at Colonial Beach, Va,
reports that during the summer season
just ended there was not one case of ty-
phoid fever at the resort and no serious
illness OF any character. This condition
is said to be almost unusual in commu-
mites which receive large accessions of
population during the summer.
There were between 5000 and 10000 peo-
pie at Colonial Beach at the height of
the season. The freedom from sickness
was due TO the excellent precautions
which were taken. The water at the re-
sort Is obtained from artesian wells, and
next year, when a complete sewerage
system has been established, it is claimed
that Colonial Beach will lead all other
resorts in the health Of its inhabitants.
