 Special Hartford Correspondeneel
 Hartford So many resisuatlJns are going Into edeet at the Gounecti- cut Hospital for the Insane at Middle. town that there is some speculation il officers are not getting back at the directors fer importing superintend- ent from outside the institution. X year and half ago Dr Henry :. Noble. for many years supereltendenL d.ed. and on July r. 1915. hls place was HIled hy tAe directors who went Co che Kings County Hospital. Brook Ign. \. l.. for the superintendent. choosing pr Floyd C. Hayilaud. Dr. Havilaud found discipline lax Ut the institution. t is said. and has been iusttutng various reforms. He does not permit officers of duty to watch the ball games. a eallben system notifies doctors when they are wanted instead of the old fire alarm, and attendants now must be uniformed, It is said some of the changes made were obnoxious to some of the officers. At any rate resignations have poured in. pr. Jessie w Fisher. who has been pathologist at the institution for a number of years, and has reputa. ton Of being one of the best in the state has recently resigned, and ae. cepted an appointment as pathologist at the Middlesex Hospital in this city. Her husband. Dr. William E. Fisher. the assistant superintendent at the hospital. and the oldest member Of the staff at the institution has also resigned He has bought the home of Perry T. W. Hale in Portland aud will live there In addition to these two resignations Dr. James M. kemis. ton. another well known member of the stan, has handed in his fesigna- ten.
 In addition to the resignations from the stan. many other changes are be- ing made. Edward F. J. smith lore man of the carpenter shop has resigned and is to go to Tewksbury, Mass. where he will accept a similar place at the state hospital there. pr. Albert C. Thomas, formerly on the staff here, Is superintendent there MT. Smith was capable man st the local hospital. and owing to hts long connection there. was familiar with all the details in connection with the work. William LeVaughn will sue eeed him as foreman of the depart ment. Oscar Ogren, the hospital plumber. has resigned to accept place on the staff Of the Middletown and Portland highway bridge. He succeeds William R. 0'Neil who in turn takes the place of Maurice r. O.Connen as officer on the hospital grounds. Another change noted is that of Mrs. Myers. for years a house keeper at the hospital, who has also resigned. Miss Annie F. Shepherd the superintendent of nurses at the hospital has been in New York taking a special course in administration and graduate w6fa. In addition. nun Der of employees have left because ot higher wages offered them by munl. tions plants. with the result that the institution is short handed.

Want School Opening Delayed.
 The farmers are in hopes that ac- ton will be taken at Thompsonyiile that will delay the opening of schools from the date selected, September 3. At present Enfield has had only one case of infantile paralysis, and this of a mild form Town Health Ofii- cer George T. Finch has issued an order that no child will be allowed to enter school on the opening day unless the boy or girl has been at home at least two weeks. This rule will also apply to children from the towns of suffield, East Windsor or somers that are attending the Enfield schools. The scarcity of help in the tobacco fields has been helped by the employing of several hundred school children to harvest the tobacco crop and they are now in the fields, and the farmers need them.

adopted by the medical corps and the
steps taken to insure absolute santa
ton in border camps. the big co1a-
mand of regulars and militia has set
new health record. From May l TO
October 81, there were only rs deaths
from disease in the force of more than
10000 and of this small number only
p deaths were due to infectious NAL
aides.
Typhoid fever was formerly the
worst scourge of camp but it has no
place among the troops along the
Mexican border. From May l to Oc-
tober Is only 81 cases of typhoid de-
veloped and no deaths resulted from
the disease. All of these cases were
among the National Guard organiza-
tons, where in some instances the
men were not inoculated with typhus
serum until after regiments had come
to the border. There was not single
case among the $4,000 troops of the
regular army engaged in patrol duty
and stationed in Mexico with General
Pershing's command.
In Spanish-American war days
over a period of eight months in 1895,
among $4,000 regulars and volunteers,
tie typhoid epidemic reached the
enormous total of $1,000 cases and
there were 2,192 deaths from the dis
ease.
