HOSPITAL COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT

Sub-Committee's lieport.

The Ho'pital.Committce met in the library of that institution at 3 o'clock this after* noon, to consider the following report from the sub-committee appointed at the last meeting :—Your committee have examined into tue various department] of the Hos pital, and find as follows:— Males, —There are, for male patients, 3 wards, making up 20 beds in each, one fever ward, and an accident ward. To take charge of the wards there is the following staff :-l head nurse {Mr Bryce), who superintends the entire wards, acti as stew aid and dispenser, and has the charge of the stores of every kind, The sbre? given out are noted by him in a book kept for the purpose, but beyond this there is no check, I he states, upon his disposal of the ', stores.—No, 1 Ward : One mele nurse in charge who is very old, and physic ally iccpablo of doing tho work ncc^sarilly required to to dono in attending upon twenty patients.— Nos. 2 and 3 ward?, fever ward, and acci dent ward have no regular paid nurse. The work necessary to bo done in these wards is performed by convalescent patients, who j also do the principnl part of the scrubbing and cleaning of these and the other wards.— Night nurse : There is only ono doing duty for these wards.

Females—l hero are for female patients one general ward, roakin<j up 18 beds, one fever ward, making about 7 beds, and another such ward. To t.ke charge of these wards there is tno following staff: — One matron (Mrs B-yce), who acts as head nurse, superintends the sub-warde, and takes a full share in the general dutiei of a nurse; one female day nurse, one female night nurse. These nurses are employed also in cleaning, scrubbing, and other neces sary work required to ba done in the wards, COOKING DEPARTMENT.—On visliiog this department, your committee found one cook employed for the whole of the work, assisted in scullery work cleaving knives, &0., by two convalescent patients. The kitchen utensils were most scauty and not of the most suitable description. _ The cooking and service of tha food might be greatly improved. The cook receives the meat, and has power to send it back if found of inferior quality. But this power he seldom exercised, tor if meat was returned to the contractor, a second supply was seldom received in the same day in time for the Hospital meals. The meat soot in as a general rule was therefore used. This difficulty might be obviated by allowing the cook, In cases where he con demns meat to order, with too sanction of the House Surgeon, a supply direct fiom some butcher iv town, with power to chargo the cost to the contractor. Ihe meat ia kept in a close, warm, room, with no current of air passing through it. Milk is only delivered once a day, and is kept cans in a close-smelling room, with steam pipes passing undorutatli the floor. These and other little irregularities ariso evidently from a want of propar assistance, and to the saino cause may bo ascribed a general absence of tidiness and cleanliness in the lower part of the building. Dining-room —This room on the ground floor, intended tor a dining-room, appears to be partially usad as a sleeping apartment. There are no atticles of furniture or for ta°ble use about the room, so that the attendants would be unable, even if dis posed, to place a meal decently upon the table. This, your committee think, is to bo regretted, for if patients sufficiently conval escent, -were required to partake of their nisals there, it would tend to their more speedy restoration, aud greatly relieve tbe wards. The stores of all kinds were found to be reduced to very small quantities, the con tracts haviDg expired in January (?) last, and not having been lenewed. The con tractors are, however, still supplying the Hospital, on list year's terms, and will, it is presumed, continue to do so till other arran°emtnts can be made. These should bo made with as little delay a^possible. Enginkbe.—The engineer is Slid to be a competent man, and Ms duties appear to require his constant attendance iv his own department. Gaedkkke.—There ii no gardener, nor any one employed upon the grounds around the Hospital. Future Management.—lt appears to your committee impossible to carry on now the work of tho Horpital upon the same moderate scale of expenses as that in force duriDg Dr Philson's teim. Dr Philson, as is well known, took most of the dntica upon himself whether appeifciining to t>ii office or not, and discharged them with much ability, and with fair success con sidering the means at his disposal. Ha was, your committee believe, actively oss'sted in his work by Mr and Mrs Erycs and the other nurse?, and he managed, with the aid of convalescent patients, to somehow get through the work, his vigi lance and activity supplying all defects of his staff. But it is clear guch a state of things could not be continued even had he remained, for the requirements of the public in regard to Hospital accoaw modation have increased, and are yearly increasing. In your committee* opinion the time has now arrived when a system must be adopted equal at least iv, if not in excess of, pre eat wants, and they are convinced that such a systom cannot bj established and. carried on except at a con siderable present outlay, and a yearly ex penditure far exceeding the expenditure of past years. Althoogh yoor committee do not consider they have sufficient information before them to advise definitely as to the best plan of management to be adopted for the future, and as to the strength ot the staff necessary to carry out such plan, they have, in their desire to afford all the information in their power, appended two schedules for consideration, showing in each case the number of persons requisi'o to be employed and their respectivo duties. To these they have added a few general remarks, directing attention to some of the more conspicuous deficiencies In the present state of things. The Hospital building requires painting, cleaning and repairing, and the drains inside and outside the building put in thorough order. Offensive effluvia is said to arise from the room for the dead, which is in the basement floor of the building. The matter deserves some further enquiry, for if the nuisance is as bad as represented, it mi^ht be advisable to change the room, or have^theroomlia a building separate from tbe main building. A dietary scale should be prepared of Jthree kinds—low, middle, and foil {diet, and this scale should be ad hered to except when special diet is deemed necessary, which should be ordered by the house surgeon. The necessary surgical in struments should be at once supplied, your committee understanding there are none belonging to the Hospital. The dispensary requires to be re-f utnished with shelves and drawers, and an additional supply of medicines. The duties of dispensing would not oscupy any person more ;than an hour a day. Your committee consider that rules should be at once framed appointing the houi-3 in the day during which visitors should be admitted, and regulating all matters necessavy for', the efficient and orderly discharge of duties and the economical working of the Hospital, B.

The Jpolice have laid two informations against Daniel Skelton, of the Nottingham Castla Hotel, Abercrombie • street, for alleged Sunday liquor selling. No cises of fever or measles have been reported to the City Sanitary Inspector since Thursday last, One case of diptheila was reported to him to-day. The City Engineer {Mr W. Anderson) is Buffering from a serious attack of bron chitrs. Ho] le<s than 313 appeals have been re. ceived against the City valuations this yoar, the variona wards contributing to the total as follows: Grafton, 20 appeals j City East, 48 j City North, 40; City South, 65; Kaiangahapc, 52; Ponsonby, 95. The Court sits on the 31st inst. to hear and adjudicate in the matter. We understa*d that tbo Committtee ap pointed to deal with the matter have decided to recommend the City Council to reserve the allotment of land at the Ciraer of Wellesley-strpat ond Coburg-street (opposite Crowther's stabki) as the site for the Free Library and proposed Art Gallery. They also recommend the Council to advertise for designs at once, ■ 'ie buildings to be approached by a flight ' steps instead of the embankment being V ;ivatcd. ' Ast night Mr Justice Williams and Mrs V i liams, of Dnnedin, arrived ia Auck land by the Waikato train, having come from the Hot Lake district By tbo same train Mr Tole, Commiaaioner of Crown Lands, returned from his visit to Rotorna on native land business A cricket match which Bhonld prove very interesting, has been arranged to take place on the Domain Ground on Saturday next between the Auckland Reprctenta* tive Team which recently went South, and the team which is to be selected from the remainder of the players to represent Auok. land in the second local match against the Taranaki eleven. Flay commences at 11 o'clock in the forenoon. Mr Seaman reports having (this day) at tended at the Bchool-room, 'fitirangi, to receive nominations for a Licensing Com mittee fur the Manukaa district, bat none weTe presented. The appointment will therefore rest with the Governor, as in the neighbouring district of Wnikomiii. To the Editor : Sir,—ln a local In your yesterday's issue Mr Hunter calls atten tion to the drainage of his premises in Albert-street, and states the amount was never demanded of him. I, the Council contractor, beg to lay I called several times at Mr Hunter's residence, but could never find him. I am the last man ia the world topressany one unnecessarily,buttheiemust be a trne claim somewhere. I am very much obliged to Mr Hunter for calling the ratepayers' attention to the matter; for, as there are teveral drains I have executed six months back not yet paid for, it may be the means of saving them and myself a deal of trouble.—l am, &c, JOHN BBOWHE, Contractor, The following from the "Waikato Times " of yesterday, will be good news to farmers:—Growers ot wheat in Waikato will rejoice to hear that there will be brisk competition for their wheat, although we fear it has come in a little late. Some were justly apprehensive that the lack of buyers would place them at a great disadvantage in disposing of their grain, and they will be immensely relieved to know that another buyer has arisen in the Waikato Steam Navigation Company, and that, therefore, , there will be a healthy competi -1 tion. The company advertise that they will give the highest prke, and as this naturally pre-sopposes the existences of i different prices, the farmers may reasonably take consolation. The anniversary soiree and meeting of the ynited Methodist Free Church, Mount Kden, was held in the District schoolroom last evening, wheu an exceedingly large number of friends mustered to hear the gentlemen announced to speak, the largest room being crowded. Mr Tattersall pre sided, and called upon Mr Roberts to give the school report which showed a consider able increase upon previous years, the roll members being 120 with an average of 90 in attendance. The Trustees' report showed that the ground and the building bad been purohased during the year, and through the aid of many frienda who had subscribed about £100 towards the build ing fund and sale of land) the finances were in a very satisfactory condition. It was stated that a» soon as new day-school buildings were erected it was the intention of the trustees to make the building very comfortable for Sabbath-school and church sendees, Very appropriate speeches were deliverpd by Revs. T, Spurgeon, 8. Macfarlane, and A. Keid. A vote of thanks, proposed by Mr Phillips, to the speakers and preachers, brought to a close the largest gathering seen in the Mount Eden district.

During our three years RESIDENCE m the City our prices have remained the same we commenced at in High-street, and though in the plan we have pursued — vis., supplying our goods upon a, lower tariff of profits than hitherto known in Auckland, we have incurred the displeasure of a few of our neighbours, we are yet content to know we have the approba tion of tho majority of our appreciating lttsonk and as long as we remain in * AUCKLAND It will be ootendeavour honourably tq maintain the positlpn \o which we haye been placed by 1 the extensive patronage wo have received from thp inhabitant? of Town and Country, to whojn we tender bur atnoere thanks. new r* GODSON'S. new QOOD& VTOODSONU GOO DB
