The case in this city is that of Mrs. Thomas Kelley. who is being cared for at the home of her father. Edwru Brennan, at 32 Woodward avenue. Thll case, too. is only the second one that is known to have broken out here. ‘thc first one having occurred a few years ago and was fatal, the victim being a young woman who had only just land- ed from Ireland. It was believed that she brought the disease over with her from the old country. She was trcabd from the Norwalk Hospital in a ten. Typhus to commonly known as a fa" ta] disease. but the present patient. Mrs. Kelley, who has been ill of it for about six days. seems to be hearing 11p satisfactorily. though it will be a number of days before the outcome or her case can be told. Dr. Robert M. Wolfe is in attendance upon her, as is also a trained nurse. Characteristics of the disease are an extremely high fever. semi consciousness pith staring eyes, and the app artifice mm the body of small redkrspols, which later turn to blue blotcbés and scale on.

Many people hold the mistaken idea that typhus and typhoid fever are simi lar. but. there is absolutely no conneo tion between the two. Mrs. Kelley s case is considered es- pecially remarkable in view of the fact that she has just passedthrougb a critical illness of pneumonia. and for several d11ys>was kept alive with oxygen. she has a remmkable typhus. Iler case is being watched with great interest. Typhns was fo11norly called jail fev- cr or black death and when dt broke out in the older days, people died like sheep. It is fully as contagious as smallpox, it is stated. it is so rare in this ecuniry that health officers are not given any instructions concerning it. The last bad epidemic of the disease occurred in England about 60 years ago; when its ravages were teirihle. . About twenty-five years ago some cases were discovered in New York city. Dr. Wolfe. when asked today con- cerning Mrs. Kelley's present condi- tion. said the patients condition seem- ed to be very satisfactory. I‘NORWALK some or RELIEF.

F 23.——Tax Coul- mlssioner Corbin (Md an address before the Farmers' Ass elation today on the matter of taxation bearing upon the contingency which may arise cull- ing for the imposition of a state tax. He briefly reviewed the history of tax ation in the state. showing that the llberality granted under the state con stltution does not. as is supposed in many states lead to “graft and extrav- agimce' “but causes the legislators to feel that the people trust them and thereby renders them less extravagant. He said that the Connecticut system is so liberal that there is really no need to attempt to avoid taxation on person- al property. The liberality of the Con- 1015: ticut system is great compared with ahoma which has the newost 00n- gtitution in the country. According to Commissioner Corbin. the Connecticut system is the finest in. existence. He compared Connecticut with Massachu- setts and by figures allowed that the average rate In Massachusetts Is one- thlrd higher. Another feature which he spoke of is that some of the towns had shown a. disposition to keep down the tax list to avoid paying a state tax. But the board of equalisation will do away with this as the board has al- ready increased the town valuation by almost ninety million dollars. This is a positive advantage over having the rate based on a low percentage and a high tax rate. He also claimed it might be much better to have tax It!!- the Influence of the people who control votes might some times affect the val nation of property. In relation to the compensation of assessors great in equalities are shown. some receiving a. dollar per day. others as high as $7 a day. Members of boards of relief are paidI from sixty-six cents in Chen; shire to $19 a day in Hartford and Mr. Corbin drew an Illustration that Iran man is paid $1 a dollar' a worth of work Is rendered.
