Topsham Doctor Under Bonds.

DIR. ]. A. Dow, 80. well-known physi-
clan of West Topsham, is under bonds
of $1,000, charged with obtaining insurance
on goods which were not burned. The
business part of West Topsham village
was burned last July. The fire started
In DR.. Dow's barn late at night by the
tipping over of a lantern while he was
putting up his horse.
DR.. Dow received $11OO from the Union
Mutual Insurance company of Montpelier.
OF this amount 5000 was on books and
medicines and $500 on household goods.
Recently a story leaked out that the
books and medicines were not burned
but had been found concealed in a house
owned by Dow in the back part of the
town. After these were found both the
insurance company and States Attorney
Conant of Bradford started investiga-
lions, and as a result Dow was put under
bonds. His case goes before the WASH
ington county grand jury, which is now
in session at Montpelier.
One of the men of the 18th cavalry,
while shooting at the range at Fort Ethan
Allen Monday, oversighted his revolver,
and the ball struck Eugene Patnaude,
who was cutting buckwheat on the Wes-
ton farm. The ball diverged after strik-
ing the shoulder blade and went deep in
to the body. Patnaude was taken to the
post hospital but the physicians were
unable to locate the bullet by probing
Patnaude is in a serious condition.

village Northfield. was burned Thursday
and his household effects on the second
floor were also detroyed. The loss is
more than $500, insured. The fire de-
partment from Mortified saved the ad-
joining buildings.

A DISTINGUISHED HONOR.
Or. Henry D. HoIton Unanimously
Chosen President Of the American
Public Health Association


Chosen President Of the American
Public Health Association.
A distinguished honor came to DR..
Henry d. Holton last Friday, when he
was elected president of the Amerl-
can Public Health association at the
annual meeting held in Buffalo. N. Y.
He was chosen unanimously viva
voce, and the election was a promo
ton and a recognition of the doctors
term of service as treasurer of the
association, a position to which he
was first elected in the city of Mexico
nine years ago, and to which he has
been reelected each succeeding year.
AS treasurer DR.. Holton has been
obliged to carry on a voluminous
correspondence with physicians and
sanitary experts in all parts of this
country and foreign countries, and has
also had charge of the compilation and
distribution of the annual reports of
the association, which are regarded as
standard works on sanitation. The
American Public Health association
includes in its membership 700 to 800
prominent physicians and sanitary
and civil engineers and experts in
sanitary science in this country,
Canada and Mexico. DR.. Benjamin
Lee of Philadelphia has been presi-
dent of the association the past year.
DR.. Sternberg, surgeon general of the
United States army, DR.. Liceagar,
president of the superior board of
health of the central government of
Mexico, and DR.. Montazambert of
Ottawa, health officer of the Dominion
of Canada, are some of the famous
physicians who preceded DR.. Holton
as president. DR.. Walter Reed, whose
experiments in Cuba have shown
that yellow fever is transmitted by
mosquitoes, is first vice president of the
association, and DR.. Jesus Chico of
Guanajuato, Mexico, is second vice
president. At the session in Buffalo
papers were presented by the ply
sicians and engineers who are working
on the problems Of sanitation in the
Philippines, in Cuba and Porto Rico
The introduction of the president-elect
and short address by him followed
the election at Buffalo. Next year Dr.
Holton will deliver the annual address
and preside at the meetings of the
association, to be held in New Orleans.
Before going to Buffalo to attend the
meetings which extended through four
days, DR.. Holton was in attendance two
days at the sessions of the Mississippi
Valley Medical association at Putin
Bay, where he went by invitation, to
deliver an address on 1.-THE Aids to
