DISEA.SE IN ICE..
The State board of healtli of Massachusetts,
has discovered that at a popular summer re
sort at Rye Beach, on the coast of New Hamp
shire, very serious symptoms of disease appear
ed which the physicians of the board describe
as "a disturbance of the digestive system, char
acterized by a sensation of giddiness and nausea,
vomiting, diarrhceri, severe , , abdominal pain,
accompanied by fever, loss of appetite, con
tinued indigestion , and mental depression.",
Investigation showed that this epidemic was
contined,to only one of the large hotels at the
place; and that consequently its cause was to
be sought neither . in 'the atmosphere nor in
the soil of the vicinity, nor to defective
sewerage or ventilation. Straago to say,
that the ice consumed by the inmates
of the hotel. was, ascertained to
,be the - sole
breeder of the disease. It was taken from a.
fresh water pond' in the neighborhood, but
whose affluent creeks passed - bra number of
saw mills, which contaminated the water. -
This is a very Important discovery, since it
has always been , held by chemists and physi- ,
eiste: that the freezing proms ejects all chemi-
Mil impurities froth water. If , the results given
by the Massachusetts health board be correct
ly stated, it will hereafter become necessary to
analyze the .source, from 'whence `ice - is taken.
before distributing it among-the public. There
is not the slightest doubt that much of •the
summer sickneis prevailing annually proceeds
from this (cause.
_in titnes of *scarcity, as
during last winter, is frequently taken fro& all
sorts of creeks, pondsi- etc.. into: which the
most offensive sewerage is drained. This should
not be done.
