TARLOV. ma was: or: for the in out: ember last issued. sounds an alarm . the danger from infectious diseases to those who ps- tronlse slimmer resorts. The rcpo rt when read bytbe general public will cause a mild sensation. Dr. Lindsley says that "a large proportion of the victims of infectious diseases are among those who have been visitors of the various summer resorts. whether in this state or in neighboring states. It is conspicuously evident in the many outbreaks of typhoid fever among the students during the first two or three weeks of the full term in college. ‘ “Summer guests themselves are learning to appreciate the risks of bo- tels. boarding houses and even their own shore cottages. The last, in popu- lar localities whorethe price of land is high, are often so closely crowded to- gether on small “lots. with no special provision for sewage disposal. that they are frequently more unhealthy places of residence than the homes they leave in the city. "The proprietors of the large hotels which are most liberally patronized know full well that a case of typhoid fever would scatter their guests almost as quickly an a coniiagration, and hence they are for the most part kept with scrupulous and vigilant attention to the practice of good sanitation. But in the cheaper hotels and especially in the clusters of shore cottages. the vio- lation of sanitary law is so frequent. and so flagrant, that If they were oc- cupied continuously. instead of only for a few weeks at n time. they would soon become dangerously unilt for hu- man habitation. "The State Board of Health of Con- necticut has more than once traced the origin of a wide spread prevalence of typhoid fever to infection incurred at a summer hotel. and developed after the return of its guests to their scat- tered homes. “Guests of summer resorts have now mostly returned to their homes, and health oillcers of towns in reporting cases of fever are specially requested to state if the subjects have spent any time at such places. “Outbreaks of typhoid have already been reported as acquired at several places along the Connecticut shore. among the residents of the cottages. "A quite scvcrc epidemic of typhoid appeared within a limited area of South Manchester. Over twenty cases oc- curred during the months of August and September. An investigation is go- ing on to find, if possible, the source of infection." COUNTY JAIL CENSUS. The Bridgeport Institution Losing Its Tennis — The New Law. The effect of many of the new laws passed at the last session of the legisla- ture is just beginning to be felt, and in some instances they have produced ru- thcr unlocked for results. One of these new laws related to the limo prisoners were to serve in jail in ordcr to work out a fine. The new law provides that each day shall be good for n dollar. The law went into effect the first of August. and its workings are now dis- closed. It is found that the result is a sharp reduction in the average number of persons in the jail for a given week The number now in the Fairilcld county jail in Bridgeport-is 122. the lows-eat recorded in a great many years. especially for this season of the year. Usually the number around thcsc months runs up to 180 or 190. with a steady increase as the cold weather up- prom-hes. often enough to carry the figures to 225. The small number in the jail makes it is difficult for the contractor who has charge of the workshop to get out his work. There are not men enough to keep the business going. In speaking about the matter County Commissioncr Henry Lee said the law would have to he changed or it would be iuipoaslble for the county to get much for its work contract when the one with former Mayor Frank E. Clark expired two years hence. . Commissioner Lee does not think much of the law. He cannot see any good In it. says :1 Bridgeport paper. Tht effect. so far as he has observed. is to shorten the sentence of that class of people who spend most of the time in jail and are a nuisance to society when out of it. The culprits are given tht some sentences as under the old law. and the result is that they are only half the length of the time In jail. It is not unlikely that an effort will be made to repeal the law at the next session of the legislature. TRAINIEN UNDER SUSPENSION. llerkshlre DivlslquCrew Stole Pump kins Near me. lass. ' Because they could not pass a field oi pumpkins without "stealing" some. the entire crew of a freight train on the Berkshire division of the Consolidated road, are now spending a month away 'rom work and will have to wait until the expiration of their suspension be- (ore they have the pleasure of drawing my more salary. The pumpkin episode occurred about two weeks ago. on the Berkshire divis- ion near Lenox. A farmer who owns considerable property along the rail- road, had several acres planted with pumpkins. of a rich and luxurious col- )r and a ripeness that was very appar- ent. When the freight train passed llong one hot afternoon the crew saw the pumpkins and stopped the train. which Is not unusual on the Berkshire division. and took a supply of the pumpkins for future use. The owner if the patch was naturally lneensed at he behavior of the crew and reported the loss of his pumpkins to the police )I Lenox. The police referred the irate farmer to the oillcials of the New Hav- en road. and complaint was made of the theft the pumpkins. The train crew was mmoned before the super- Intcndcnt and confessed. While the thcit of the pumpkins was not considered by the railroad ollcials as an international oilence. it was such a breach ormanners and such a breach of orders that some punishment was thought noes-ary.
