Hospitals .- ST. MARY'S HOSPITAL., situated at the corner of Willow and Fourth Streets, in Iloboken, N. J., was founded by the "Sisters of the Poor of St. Francis" in 1863. It is a general hospital, in which patients. in case of accident, are admitted immedi- ately. In other cases application must be made to [ the sisters. In the year 1883 an addition was made to the building, increasing the capacity to one hun- dred and fifty beds, with the newest and best facilities for the comfort of the sick. Nearly one thousand patients were treated, and notwithstanding the large number of those whose cases on entering the hospital were incurable, the death-rate compares favorably with that of past years in kindred institutions.
The medical board is constituted as follows: Sur- geons, Romco F. Chabert, M.D., William R. Fisher, M.D .; Assistant, G. F. Pitts, M.D .; Physicians, Wil- liam T. Kerdlich, M.D., Henry B. Rue, M.D .; See- retary of Medical Board, Hill S. Warwick.
THE CITY CHARITY HOSPITAL. was established by an ordinance of the Board of Aldermen reorganizing the Alms Department, passed Dec. 15, 1868. It was effected, in some degree, after the consolidation of the cities by an or linance passed June 18, 1870, and by an art of the Legislature reorganizing the local govern- ment of the city. This hospital while under the charge of the Alms Department was located at the old almshouse, foot of Washington Street. it was Commissioners April 5, 1871, and in 1881 twenty- eight city lots and a small building at the corner of Montgomery Street and Baldwin Avenue being bought,

the hospital was removed there and a larg > building erected with the proce ds of the sale of the old aln ,- house.
The medical board is constituted as follows : Visiting Physicians, Theodore F. Morris, M.D., Joseph H. Vondy, M. D., Alfred A. Lutkins, M.D., S. R Forman, M.D .; Visiting Surgeons, John W.

C'URIST HOSPITAL, situated at the head of Maguo- lia Avenue, Jersey City Heights, was originally known as the Hudson County Hospital, art was under the control of the board of regents. It pa sed imo the control of the Episcopal Church of the dio- rese of Northern New Jersey in 1872, and its name was changed in 1879. In 1850 it was placed under the direct charge of the Sisterhood of the Good Shep- herd of New York City. This hospital can accom- modate thirty two patients. They are received with- out distinction as to race or color. The institution has no revenue except from donations and subserip- tions, but beds are endowed in the children's, or " Daisy Ward." The number of patients admitted from Nov. 1, 1842, to Nov. 1, 1883, was 156, of whom 122 were discharged, 12 died and 22 remained under treatment.

St. FRANCIS HOSPITAL is situated on Hamilton Square, Jersey City. It was founded in 1-72, and is under the charge of the Sisters of the Four of st. Francis. During the year 1883 thirteen hundred and twenty-nine patients were admitted, which is the grentest annual total ever treated in the institution since its foundation, notwithstanding it was a ver of unprecedented healthfulness, not only in Jersey City and everywhere throughout Hudson County, but in all the region round about and throughout the State. This hospital has been recently enlarged by the addi- tion of forty heds, but the increase in numbers of the sick and disabled poor has far outrun the growth of hospital accommodations. Of the thirteen hundred and twenty-nine patients treated, one hundred and twenty died, or about eight and three- fifths per cent., a larger death-rate than in former years.
The medical board is constituted as follows: Med- ient Director, Theodore R. Varick, M.D .; President of Medical Board, F. G. Payne, M.D. ; Physicians, Joseph F. Finn, M.D., F. G. Payne, M.D., Joseph E. Culver, M.D., Thomas J. MeLaughlin, M.D .; Sur- geons, Theodore R. Varick, M. D., John Metiill, M.D., William W. Varick, M.D., Beriah A. Watson, M.D. ; .

CHAPTER XXIX.
BOARD OF HEALTH AND VIDAL STATETHAT
By an act of the Legislature, approved March 27, 1871. On Board of Chose Frechelders of Huden County was ab horized to appoint ! w , commissioner-, who, towether with the county physician for the time being. should constitute a Board of Health and Vital Statistics. The board for the first year coppaist dl of Dr. 1 .. W. Eller, Dr. J. J. Youbin and Dr. S. V. W. Mout, This board continued in other until the death of Dr. Youlin, Oct. 90 Is-1. when Dr. Daniel MeNeil was chosen his successor. Hedied Yor !. 1×83, when his son, C'. Hbelmex McNeil, succeeded him. The board for 1-91 is com med of Dr. Elder. Dr. O'Neil and County Physician Charles B. Con- Verse. The first clerk was F. H. Coris, who was succeeded in 1875 by t. J. R mey, Jr., the present chief clerk The health inspector is Dr. failure D. Salton-all, and the health inspectors of the several cities and townships of the county are made by the law the executive officer of the board in their re- spretive jurisdictions. Mr. John A. Metirath suc- ceeded Hon. William Medio as counsel to the board on the election of the latter to a seat in the national Ileuse of Representatives.
The board has accumulat Ja vast amount of valuable statistical information relative to the county, andissues annually a comprehensive report of the work it has accomplished. Their system isa room plete that the re- vord of deaths is comsiderel al -dately correct. Sur- reptitious removal or lotrial of the body of a human Iwing would be very dithenh, owing to the check estabhshed by the board in virtually making super- intendents of cemeteries and transportation agents exercise a continual surveillance of the burial and removal of bodies, and seeing that permits have been obtained in all cases,
The quinquennial increase of population since 1-55 was as follows: 1555-60, 20,594; 1560-0, 25,129. 1×05-70, 41,419; 1-70-75, 83,712; 1-15-50. 21MM00 There were in 1-53 4792 deaths jo an estimated popu- lation of 204,619, beipz 714 less than in Is52 and 447 less than in [SSL. The death-rate per loom per- sons was 23.1, the lowest since 1899, and for below the nine years' average. During this period the high- est rate was 27.5, in 1982, and the lowest 20.6, in 1979.
Zymotie diseases were distinguished in 1853 by the lowest rate jet recorded, 5.3 per 100. The death- rate of constitutional diseases was 4.9 per 1000 per-

sens, just up to the average of the nine years. Only one case of smallpox occurred during the year.
In Iss3 there died 2531 males and 2261 females. This would give a death-rate of about 24.8 for the males, and 22.1 for the females, per 1000.
The following table shows the total population, the number of deaths and the death-rates in the several cities and townships of the county :

The mortality in North Bergen shows a decrease of 11.1 from that of 1882, mainly due to an abrupt fall of the number of deaths from typho-malarial fever, smallpox and consumption, though the fall extended to the entire list, excepting brain and nervous dis- cases, from which an increase was observed. In this township are situated the penitentiary, the smallpox hospital, the lunatic asylum and the almshouse. In the last two named 89 deaths occurred in 18-3.
The annexed table shows the deaths in the whole county at different ages and of cach sex for each month in the year 1583:
Fra a supplemental report made by Mr. Rooney for the month of July, 1884, the following facts are githered: Deaths, 483; births (reported , 347; mar- riages, Jso. The annual death-rate in the whole county, based on the mortality of July, is 27.7; in Jersey City, 28.2; in Hoboken, 25.3. The county's rate for July fell 4.3 below the average rate for seven Julys. Deaths of children under five years of age give a rate of 3.7, and deaths of persons over five years of age fell six-tenthis below the average rate for
seven past Julys. Some of the causes of death are given as follows :

There were reported and recorded in 1883, 4238 births, of which 2145 were males and 2080 females. This gives a birth-rate of 20.7 per 1000 persons in the county, the highest since IST7, which was 21 1.
The fact that these events are neither completely nor promptly reported renders the birth-rates found- ed upon them misleading. There is, however, a con- stant improvement, and the return of 1883 in point of number is much the best yet made. The efforts of the State Board to educate public opinion to the point of valuing properly, records of births, deaths and mar- riages are no doubt contributing to a better carrying out of the laws regarding their being reported.
Of marriages there were reported during the year 2056, the largest number since the records have been kept, the increase being due probably to a growing conviction of the necessity of some central office of | deposit, giving guarantee of the safety and per- manence of these records, and at which a list of the whole county's marriages can be viewed at a glance.
The manner in which the records of this bureau are kept does credit to the efficiency of Chief Clerk Rooney, whose tabulated statistics are prepared with great care and precision.
