Dublin, Ga, Oct. 3.-This morning,
on Jefferson street, in this city, Supt.
]. e. Hathaway. of the county chain
gang, was shot and killed by Earl
Camp. Esq, a prominent young law

Camp was on his knees when he did
the shooting. Hathaway having knock
ed him down after having struck him
a number Of blows on the head and
back. He states that twice Hathaway
reached for pistol and that he thought
his life in danger and then fired.
Hathaway was dringink and endeavor-
ed to prevent a lady passing him In

BELIEVES THAT LEPR0SY
CAN BE CURED.
Surgeon General Discusses the Case
in the Army

Surgeon General Discusses the Case
in the Army.
Washington, oct. 3.-In his annual
report Surgeon General r. NJ. o'Reilly
shows that the general health of the
army has improved during the past
year, the admission rate per thousand
having been 1,45l .1S. against 1,716.51 in
the preceding year. This marks a
gradual improvement in the condition
of the troops. which has been noted
since sanitary matters have been given
increased attention.
The surgeon general believes that IL
is possible to cure leprosy. At any rate
decidedly favorable results have fol-
lowed the treatment of the leper SOL
der now held in isolation at one of
the southern army posts. The nodules
and swellings on the body have become
either greatly reduced or have disap-
peared entirely.
Free use is made of Roentgen rays
in treating this case, and the man is
now permitted to wander about the
island at his will, provided he does not
enter any building save his own. or
approach any one nearer than eight
feet
