ills Anon REPORT.
Health Officer Tracey Scores
an East Norwalk
Nuisance.
*Selectmen Took No Action When Notified.
In compliance with- the statute I re-
spectfully submit the following report
of my doings as town health officer for
the year'ending August Sist, l896.
During the months of January, Feb-
rurary and March a severe epidemic
of measles prevailed throughout the
town. It made its appearaece first in
Cranbury. At an entertainment given
there early in January three children
afflicted with-the disease‘from Westport
were present. Shortly after this on-
tertainment the disease broke out and
spread with great rapidity to all parts
of the town. The cases first reported
were strictly quarantined but as soon
as the disease assumed an epidemic
character the houses were placarded to
warn the public where the disease
existed, but quarantine restrictions
were discontinued.
Six cases'of scarlet fever were re-
ported during the year. The type .of
the disease was‘mild; origin unknown.
A strict quarantine was maintained in
' each case and the place thoroughly dis-
infected after convalescence. '
Diphtheria made its appearance dur-
ing the latter part of March. The dis-
ease was of a severe type; twenty se-
vere cases were reported. The origin
of the disease was from two sources;
one from the South Norwalk schools
where the disease was prevailing, the‘
other from a family afficted with the
disease in Brooklyn ‘a member of which
paid a visit to his friends in East Nor-
walk, Twodaysaiter his arrivalthe
disease broke out in the family and
spread to two, other families in' the
neighborhood. "
In everycase of diphtheria reported
a strict quarantine was enforced and
'nhaintaineduntil the-place was: thor;
oughly disinfected after the convales-
cence ordeath'of the patient.
During the year four cases of tyhoid
fever were reported.
. The foregoing were the only diseases.
of a contagious or infectious nature re-
perted. _ .
During the spring and summer ma-
larial troubles were prevalent, espec-
ially the intermittent fever. .
'On'receiving complaint an inspection
was made of twenty-four nuisances and
orders were issued for their abatement.
They consisted chiefly. of the burial of
dead. animals, the abolishing of im-
proper sink drains, the cleaning of
privies and cesspools and the removal
of garbage and refuse matter.
A sanitary inspection of the school
buildings was made during the year.
The East Norwalk school was found to
be in an overcrowded condition. The
ventilation and light of onc‘room was
so defective that in my opinion, it was
not suitable for a school room. This
room, (formerly a hall) was thirty feet
long by ten feet wide, and furnished
with but one window. Into this room
was crowded thirty children. Un dark
or cloudy days it was necessary to use
lamps to enable the children to pursue
their studies. To protect the health of .
these little onbs, I issued an order to
~ the committee forbidding the use of
this room for a school room, also limit-
ing the number of scholars in another
‘ room which seemed to me to be over-'
crowded.
The committee complying with the
above order rented Randall’s hall, con-
vetting, it into tWO school rooms and by
utilizing these relieved the overcrowded
conditionithat existed. . The school and
its surrounding should be perfect if pos-
sible in their sanitary arrangements
not only for the protection of health
but to impress upon the minds of the
children the importance of sanitary
matters. '
The garbage question is one of great _
importance and one we cannot with im-
punity ignore. ,We should have, in the
cities at least, a systematic collection
and preper disposal of it. At the pres-
ent it is dumped anywhere and every-
where. '
The milk dairies were inspected dur-
ing the year, particular [attention being
. paidto the water‘ supply. In two in-
stances privies were found so close to
the wells that there was danger of con-
tamination of the‘water. '* Orders were
therefore issued for their removal.
The worst nuisance in the state, in
my opiniOn, exists .in East Norwalk.
S It consists of a‘ pond situated in a thick;
ly settled heighborhood between. Sec-
» end and Third avenues; , Surrounding
. * this pond, and within a few feet [of it,
A“ - are to; be found barny'ar‘ds, chicken-
, soups and. priviespone' of the 'lattea
‘ actually in the pond itself. This open
cess-pool receives the surface drainage
of the neigthrhood, and the sink
drainage, garbage and refuse matter
from the houses surrounding it. It
does not seem possible that in this age
of advancement, such a poet-hole could
exist in a civilized, community; butI
am sorry. to state such is the case.
Since my attention was called . to this
nuisance last May, I have done all in
my power to haye it abated, but so far
my efforts have been in vain. The
property owners, as the statute requires:
have been notified tocause this pond
to be filled in, but they have failed to
comply with that order. .
When the property owners fail to
comply with such an order the statutes
state that “The work may be done
under the direction of the selectmen
and the expenses incurred thereby shall
be paid by the treasurer 'of the town
upon the order of the selectmen.” The
statute further states that the select.-
men may assess benefits against ’the
owners of the property for such work
done. '
The selectmen were notified of the
existence of this nuisance, their atten-
tion was called to the necessity of hav-
ing it abated, and to the statute which
gave them the power to do it. The
nuisance, however, still exists, amenace
to health and a disgrace to the town.~
Why they have failed-to act in this im-
portant matter; what reason they have
for neglecting to exercise the power
given them by the statute, is a mystery
to me. Economy in the administration
of public affairs is commendable, but in
matters pertaining to the public health
it is often-times more costly than extrav-
agance. .
In a question so important as public
health, expense should always be a
secondary consideration. To expose
the health and lives of a community
for the sake of economy, is in my
opinion deserving of. censure.
This abominable nuisance, however,
cannot exist much longer. Public
sentiment will demand or necessity
soon compel'its abatement.
EastNorwalk has grown so rapidly
that some system of public sewerage
must be adopted in the near future.
The sooner this question” ismgcpsidered
the bitter for the generalhealth of that
section of the town. Every small yard
at present contains a cess-pool, a privy ‘
and in some instances a well. On ac-
count of their proximity to each other
and to the houses, they constitute a
nuisance" which is-not only offensive
but detrimental to health. In propor-
tion as such nuisances increase, the
damage of epidemic disease increases.
In conclusion I would state that the
public are more enlightened than for-
merly on the subject of hygiene.
The services of the health officer are
appreciated and his suggestions re-
spected.
Respectfully submitted;
WILLIAM J. Tnacsr,
Health. Officer.
‘ To Honor the Burglars’ Victim.
The residents of Bedford Station and
vicinity are taking steps to erect a mon-
ument to Walker B. Adams, 'who was
killed by burglars, whom his son, Wil-
liam B. Adams, subsequently shot, on
Aug. 20. At a meeting held atBedford
Station on Saturday evening several
hundred dollars were subscribed and a
committee was appointed to solicit ad-
ditional subscriptions. T. Elwood Car-
’penter, President of the Mount Kisco
National Bank, was appointed Treas-
urer/of the fund. The committee was a1-
so instructed to purchase a suitable tes-
timonial to be presented to William B.
Adams in recognition oflhis bravery.
Resolutions were passed testifying to
the regret of the community at the un-
timely loss of Walker B. Adams and to
.the esteem in which he was held. The
meeting also gave expresssion in a sim-
ilar'form to its admiration of the cour-
age young Mr. Adams displayed in fight-
ing against heavy odds in that midnight
battle, by which he merited the grati-
tude of the community, as it resulted
.in breaking up a dangerous band 0
outlaws. ' v

side Park, and return. Among the
party were Mrs. J. W. Wilson, Mrs.
Beers, Mrs. L-,D- Keeler,’ and the
Misses Morehouse, Lawrence, Shepard,
Whitlock, Littlejohn, Taylor and Ells.
All had a delightful time. ‘

Scouting Parties and Policel-Iunt All Night.
A fiend in human form yesterday
afternoon in the East End of Bridge-
port, criminally assaulted and seriously
injured a little child and approached
and insulted several other little chil-
dren. He was a stranger and made- his
escape before he could be apprehended.
The police made earnest efforts to cap-
ture the man, but did not succeed.
Scouting parties were also out the
greaterpart of the night, but did not
meet with success. ' , '
Little Ella Gardner the 8 years old
daughter of Charles N. Gardner, a
painter residing at 70"Orange street,
thatcity, in company with two younger
sisters, started from their home to play
with some companions on Central ave-
nve, about 2 o’clock. . At Stratford and
Union avenues they were met by a
strange'man who enlisted. their, atten-
tion and who asked the older girl her
name. He then told her he was (her
uncle. He said his daughter had
brought him his dinner and that she
had gone into the woods and he couldn’t
find her. He wanted the girls to go
with him but they refused. Once he
grasped them by the arm and then
‘ofi'ering Ella twelve cents he urged her
along. The other children remained
behind and saw the couple disappear in
the bushes near the Vitrified Pipe
factory. ' ,
* Not long after, the man appeared car-
rying the girl in his arms. The other
children thinking their sister was sick
hurried towards home. They did not
say anything to their mother. The
man brought Ella to within two blocks
of the house where he left the little one
to walk home, he hurrying away. The,
child on reaching the house soon told
her mother of the terrible affair" and
was well nigh prostrated. The dis-
tracted mother finith-sehtfor'Dr‘.‘M31-
bourne who on arriving soon found the
mothers’s worstfears realized and that
the child was seriously injured. .
This was abouts o’clock, but no ac—
tion was taken to‘ look for the miscreaut
until the fdther’s arrival home an hour
later, he having been called from his
work. Officer. Campana was one of the
first to hear of the affair and he imme-
diately set to work. Supt. Birming-
ham with two 'ofiicer§ . went over in a
team and with the others scoured all the.
eastern section of the city and as far as
Avon Park, but without avail.
The injured child said the stranger
was a good looking man of medium
size, With a black and drooping mous-
tache, and that he needed shaving. He
wore black clothes, with a black Derby
hat and a white shirt.
McMahon—Gehébe.
Another one of those pretty weddings
took ‘place at St. Mary’s church‘ this
morning, which was witnessed by a
large number of the friends of the con-
tracting parties.
The ceremony was neatly and with
proper solemnlty conducted by Rev. J.
B. Dougherty and was possibly his last
oflicial act of the kind in that church
as he expects to soon leave town,
The parties whom be united in mat-
rimony were John McMahon of New-
town and Miss Mamie Gehebe, daugh-
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Gehebe of
this city. The bride was prettily at-
tired in a white silk. gown, trimmed
with Duchess lace, andshe wore dia-
monds. .
Her sister Ella in a blue gown trim-
med with lace looked very pretty as the
bridesmaid. The best man was Fran-
cis Kilbride of Newtown.
A reception was held at the home of
the bride after the ceremony. They
will leave at 7 o’clock this evening for
Boston on a bridal trip. On their re-
turn home they will occupy rooms on
Orchard street, which have been newly
furnished for their reception. :
Millfiill Improvements.
Work on the demolition of the south

Ouarreled Over Their "Child.
An exciting incident which almost re-
culted in a case of kidnapping occured
on the Rowayton depot platform Mon-
day night. '
Last week, Thursday, a man, who
had been living in Port Chester, dc.-
serted- his wife, and with a young
daughter, came to Rowayton and went
to live at the residence, (rt-Charles Thiol
on Roton Hill. , . 'f'
Monday, the mother came up to see
the child and persuaded the little girl
to accompany her home.” They were
waiting for a train at the station when
the father put in an appearance and at-
tempted to take the girl away, but she
resisted.
Constable Ladrigan and Louis J ose-
livsky, of the Roton Pointvaprove-
ment company, interfered. They
made the man desist. and allowed the
Woman to take the train.
Quite a crowd collected during the
heated conversation in German be-
tween the husband and wife.

' Frill From a Tramway Car. '
Tommy Baxter, son-of the late W. J.
Baxter sufi'ered'an accident last night
that is liable to keep him confined to
the house for several days. He was a
member of theBaptist church floral
circle which took a trolley ride to
Stamford. On the return trip, Tommy
in some way fell headlong from the 'car
at Darien. The car was stopped and
members of the party went back and
picked the unfortunate lad up and
tenderly placed him on the car again.
His face was covered with blood from a
wound which he had sustained on his
head, and he was more or less bruised
about the body.
1v at the time of the accident and that
the little fellow escaped fatal injuries
seems almost miraculous.
He was taken to his home on Chest-
nut . street and to-day is reported as
getting along as nicely as the nature of
his injuries will permit.

A Knotty Nanghty Case.
The case of Mary Allen with A. E.
Austin, administrator, vs. Peter J.
O’Brien, which was heard before J ude»
facts has been decided in favor of the
plaintiff. For some reason the plain-
tifi's refused to accept as bondsmen,
(for the appeal .to a higher court
which the defense promptly filed) any
one related to the defendant. Mr. A.
B. Hill signified 'his willingness to gun'-
ify as Mr. O’Brien’s bondsman in the
sum of $250, but he was objected to, on
the ground that his real estate was no-
located in town. It is not thought that
‘Mr. O’Brien will have any trouble In
securinga bondsman. The case is a
peculiar one and seemingly quite knotty
if not naughty. ?
Trolley Ride.
The Flower circle of the Baptist
church enjoyed a trolley ride to Stam-
ford and return on the Tramway line,
