BURLINGTON HEALTH OFFICER
State Board Holds That DR.. Clark Is the
Man,

The members Of the State board Of
health, Drs. G. :. CaVerly of Rutland, II.
D. Iiolton of BrattlebOro and T. X.
Stiles of ST. Juhnsbury, met in this city
Tuesday night and the question of the APP
pointmcnt of a health officer for Burliug
ton was discussed. Alderman Courtney,
chairman of the aldermanic committe"
on health. ana X. f. Brown, city attor-
ney, appeared before the board The ques-
ton of whether DR.. f. Il. Clark or DR..
T. w. Baylies is the health officer, was
discussed al length.
The members Of the board held that
there is no vacancy and that consequently
Or. Baylies cannot be appointed. Mr..
brown claimed that the law relative To
health officers did not effect officers hold
ing Office but all that should be appointed
after the law went into effect. The board
held to the contrary and said that there
were three ways to settle the matter; by
inducing DIR. Clark to resign, by prefer
ring charges against him or by bringing
the matter before the courts.
DR.. lIolton was elected delegate to the
meeting of the United States public health
service to be held at Washington June 8
and the plans for the sewage for the town
of Fair Haven were approved.

FOUR DRINKS IN COURT
All Pleaded Guilty and One Held on
Another CHARGE

-Four men were arraigned in city court
yesterday for intoxicatIon, following ar
rests made on Tuesday. 1t was expected
that trouble would follow pay day at Fort
Ethan Allen but only three soldiers were
arrested. There has not been such an
amount of drunkenness on any night since
the law went into effect as on Tuesday
night.
The four men in court yesterday plead
ed guilty and were each fined s. and
costs. They were Oscar Shafcr, Levi
Baillargeon and George Northrop and
Sylvester Sullivan. The latter was also
charged with breach of the peace but the
case was continued until Monday morn
ing. When placed in Jail Sullivan was
minus one shoe and had no coat and was
in a fighting mood. lie was arrested
Tuesday evening on Pitkin street, where
he met man named Aapa and after a
few words succeeded in drawing on a
istic encounter. The result OF the fight
was that Alapa was severely cut on the
head by shovel which Sullivan was
using as a weapon Of defense. A police
man was soon on the scene and gathered
in Sullivan, who spent the night in Jail.
Two other fights are reported to have
taken place above Pearl street Tuesday
night, but the participants were not SO
drunk but that they got out Of the way
before the police happened on the scene.

SHOT HIMSELF IN HEAD
Suicide of E. Il. Shattuck, the
Well Known Restaurant Keeper.
wife Stumbled upon His Body an Ho ur
after tho Deed Was Com mitted-
Cause Matter of Con-
lecture.

Edward H. Shattuck proprietor of the
Hotel Shattuck, at 1Sj Bank street, COM
United suicide Tuesday night by shooting
himself through the head. Mr.. Shattuck
ate supper at the usual time and the
family noticed nothing unusual in his aC-
tons About o'clock he left the restau-
rant and it is supposed went at once to
his room and shot himself. An hour later
Mrs. Shattuck went to the room, which
was dark, and in crossing it came upon
his dead body Health officer Clark was
summoned and found that Mr. Shattuck
had shot himself with d revolver. which
ne held in his right hand. lie had placed
the weapon in his mouth and pointed it
upwards. Death was undoubtedly in
Simultaneous. TWO chambers Of the re-
volver were empty but there were no in
dications that he had used the weapon
more than once. The shot was not heard
by any one in the building. Mr.. Shattuck
had not been in good health for some
time AMI the cause Of the suicide must
be a matter of conjecture as he left no
note or other word of explanation. The
body was taken to tho undertaking rooms
of j. Warren Roberts and there prepared
for burial.
Mr.. Shattuck was born in Hague, y.
y, in 1856 and was therefore Al years OF
age. He came to Burlington about %
years ago and was at first employed at
the Van Ness House and later at Lane )
livery stable. lie subsequently opened a
restaurant on the west side of City Hall
Park. moving to the southwest corner Of
Church and Main streets, and about Il
year and n half ago to 1SS Bank street.
where he enjoyed u good patronage. He
married Miss Carrie Paddock, who came
to Burlington from Canada. and she and
Il daughter. Florence, survive him. He
also leaves brother, Luther, in this city

ANOTHER LICENSE GRANTED
o. ]. Prsvey g. Co. Get One OF the Fifth
Glass.

The last application for license to sell
intoxicating liquors was disposed of Tues
day when a hearing was to have been
held on the application of III. Il. Perry
for a license of the NTH class to sell liq-
nor at the drug store of 0. j. Prevey IL
Co. at the corner of North street and
Winooski avenue. No one appeared for
or against the petition and it was accord
ingly granted. 1t is expected
that f. l.. Taft &c Co. will
apply for a similar license and that Will
give every druggist in tho city license
except Il. b. Stearns & Co, who are not
legally entitled to one on account Of the
fact that no member of the firm is con-
nected with the store.
The various saloon keepers have been
furnished with n list of those who have
received or are receiving aid from the
city and in consequence the saloons Will
not furnish such parties liquor The bars
are now all doing business except those
at the Hotel Burlington, the Sherwood
House and the City Hotel.

Letter to q. W. Allen & Co.
Burlin atom, W.

Dear Sir: It's an old saying: the best
advertisement is a pleased customer
1t happens to us continually in this
way: \ man buys Devoe for his house
he has painted it once in three years for
dog's-age, and thinks he knows what he
wants-buys 80 gallons. and has 10 left.
He sees right-off that 70 Devoe is as
much as 90 of anything else. He likes
that; it comes quick; it is a surprise: ana
he tells of it. The best advertisement is
a pleased customer.
Three years roll round. There isn't
sign that his house needs paint, he don't
paint It. Next year he don't paint IT,
This comes slow; it is a surprise; but he
has got used to it.s Stll the best advor-
tsomcnt is A pleased customer.
Yours truly
