HELENA. Lieutenant-Colonel Sir H. L. Gallwey, K.C.M.G., Governor of St. Helena, in his annual report to the Colonial Office, just issued, observes that the community maintained a satisfactory standard of health, although the death-rate increased from 6’4 per 1000 in 1909 to 10’7per 1000 in 1910. In this connexion Dr. W. J. J. Arnold, the colonial surgeon, points out that "a continuance of the low death- rate of 1909 was, however desirable, hardly to be expected where neglect of the laws of health opens -so many avenues to disease and death, though there is distinct evidence that a better understanding of the care of health prevails generally amongst the people." There were no deaths during the year between the ages of three months and five years. There were four deaths under three months, three of which were due to congenital debility. There were three deaths from tuberculosis, two of which were old- standing cases, and the other a freshly developed acute case. Three cases of enteric fever and two of diphtheria were recorded during the year. There were 40 deaths in all, including three Zulu prisoners. The births (including five stillborn) numbered 87. Marriages in- creased from 17 in 1909 to 22 in 1910. The estimated civil population on Jan. 1st, 1911, was 3441. For the first time during a period of ten years influenza was not epidemic during any part of 1910. Every previous year since 1900 had been marked by an epidemic of more or less severity. The infant mortality rate was the lowest yet recorded. The leper establishment in Rupert’s Valley was closed early in 1910 on the death of the only inmate, a child 8 years of age. The medical staff of the colony, which since 1906 had consisted of one medical officer, was reinforced towards the end of 1910 by the appointment of an assistant colonial surgeon. The mean temperature for the year was 56’4° F., the maximum being 78° on March lst and 27th, and the minimum 51° on August 20th and 23rd and Sept. 30th. The total rainfall for the year was 44’38 inches on 267 days. The hospital report for the year shows that 151 patients were admitted, as compared with 164 in 1909. There were six deaths. There were no cases of pneumonia, as contrasted with ten cases in 1909. this being probably due to the absence of influenza in the colony during the year. There were over 4000 attendances regis- tered in the out-patients’ department-about 1000 more than in 1909. The Hospital Emergency Fund continues to be of great service in assisting to defray the expenses of the poorer patients. Under the zealous and capable superintendence of the matron, Miss Hart, the nursing duties were carried out with admirable efficiency. On Oct. 24th the hospital was honoured by a visit paid by the Duke and Duchess of Connaught and Princess Patricia. The Royal visitors spent a short time in each of the wards, where they spoke indi- vidually to the patients. Their Royal Highnesses’ gracious words, and the charming interest they displayed in everything connected with the hospital, will not easily be forgotten by the medical officers, nurses, and patients. THE UBIQUITOUS MICROBE. "AMERICAN locomotion in mediaeval streets "-in other words, the tramway-car in cities like Rome and Florence, many of which still justify Dr. King Chambers’s description of them in THE LANCET as consisting of " Hanway Passages bordered by Newgate Prisons "-is fraught with danger not to the pedestrian only. The practice of the tramway conductor to detach the tickets from the roll by previously moistening his fingers with saliva has been found to be a fertile source of infection to the unsuspecting passenger. Italian bacteriologists are confirming the experience of their French colleagues in this finding, and are sounding an admonitory note to the public to be on their guard against the diffusion, thus effected, of pathogenic microbes, those of tuberculosis in particular. The " Società Italiana d’Igiene," through its journal, has put in evidence that five tramway tickets, freely moistened with the eonductor’s saliva from his not immaculate finger and thumb, were found charged with "germi virulenti." Drawing attention to the fact that passengers often incontinently thrust the ticket between their teeth or give it to the child who accompanies them to put in his mouth, the " Sooieta d’Igiene" " insists on the necessity of the conductors being provided with a less primitive or insanitary means of collecting fares. Such a means, in fact, inspired by Dr. Busquet’s published report on the danger of infection due to the saliva-moistened ticket, has been introduced in Paris and has already been adopted in more than one of the better- appointed tramway-services in Italy. Turin and Rome at the present moment are the seats of exhibitions which are attracting thousands of foreigners and putting extra pressure on their means of locomotion, especially the tram-car. We hope, therefore, that the salutary innovation, imported from Paris, will soon become general throughout the Italian cities.
