Bennington semi-weekly banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 1894-1902, 1895-09-13

North Adams is greatly troubled with
typhoid fever, a large number of cases
of that disease being reported. One of
its physicians says he thinks there is
more typhoid fever in that town this year
than there was last, and that the disease
seems to be increasing from year to year.
The general impression seems to be that
this condition is due to the foul condi-
ton of the Hoosac River at that point,
and leads the Transcript to say:
"The cause should be carefully
searched for by the Board of Health and
town authorities, and removed if possl-
BILE. The emptying of sewage into the
north branch of the IHoOsac River when
the water is low cannot be very conduc-
tive to health, and the time will probably
come when the practice will be stopped,
as it ought to be and without delay. For
long time now that stream has been no
better than an open sewer, and so long
as this condition continues an outbreak
of fever need occasion no surprise"
North Adams is now suffering from an
evil similar to the one that for years
threatened Bennington. How this town
escaped an outbreak of fever or some
other pestilential disease as a conse-
quence of making sewer of a stream
running through the heart of the village,
is mystery. However, the action of the
Trustees and the activity of the Board of
Health, in compelling sewer connections
will permanently end the evil. The ex-
perience of North Adams emphasizes
the wisdom of this step, which should
be actively pursued until every sewer
connection is withdrawn from the river.

WILLIAM WAS ILL.
SORROWFUL TALE TOLD BY A
CITY JAIL PRISONER.
He Was Ill With CIilIs and Fever
Field Day in Police Court-AIbert
Walker Fined-Other Cases Heard
BY Justice Smith.

When William Brown was sent UP for
vagrancy a month ago, he was a big,
strong man. He came out of the city Jail
on Monday at 2 o'clock and at was re-
arrested.
Yesterday morning when he was ar
raigned, Justice Smith noted a peculiar
look about Brown, and asked:
Brown. what is the matter with your
II am sick, you honor. l need a hospi-
tai more than l do jail, said Brown, as
he burst into tears: Il have suffered
more than any man can describe. 1 was
far from being well when L was sent
there and almost Immediately afterwards
was taken with chillS and fever have
been very Ill, judge; and am sick yet, :"
continued Brown.
BY this time the occupants on the
-nourners' bench were in full sympathy
with the afflicted man, and many a
mournful sniffie was INDUCED in. The
court was touched in a tender spot, too.
While attorneys and spectators were viSi-
bly, affected.
You do not look like a bad man." re-
marked the court.
II am not a pad man." replied Brown.
la ID am only MY, Ike Re great many others
well, you may be seated" remarked
the justice, land after a while we will
see about your case.''
When court concluded Brown was made
happy A collection was taken up for
him, to which the court and the prosecu-
ting attorney literally contributed At
torney Frew then took him home to din
ner.
It was a field day in court taken as a
whole. Thirty-seven cases of greater or
less Importance were heard. Among
them was that of Thomas Murphy, who
is charged with having burglarized the
store OF the Utah Optical company few
nights ago. The evidence against Muir
ply was. quite strong; that of Myer La
pin tending to implicate him to say the
least. Lapin purchased some of the opti-
cal goods, from Murphy. who said he had
more to dispose of. The accused was
held in 500 bonds to await the action of
the grand jury.
