BROWNS TWO BOYS

NEWTON, Mass, October 4.-Hook.
ed by ten-year-old Clifton Davis in
Crystal lake Tuesday night, a big pic
kerel dragged the boy and his compa-
MON, eight-year-old James Lane, into
the water and held them under water
till they were drowned. When their
bodies were recovered yesterday in
ten feet of water the fishing line was
wound around them with the fish still
on the hook

to hear from other members on the
matter.
F. c. Smith said he would like to
give Wallach a show, if he could show
some sort OF proof of what he claimed
to have done. He denounced him in
strong terms, however as faker.
G. R. Hemenway characterized Wal
ZACH as "a liar, or something worse"
He told how he had made statements
of facts when taking out naturaliza-
ton papers, which afterwards he had
entirely contradicted under oath while
in court, in a case in which he was
plaintiff. He wouldn have anything
to do with Wallach, and would feel
that he had betrayed the trust implied
by his position if he consented to let
him treat any of the Territory's wards
DR.. Baldwin again reiterated his
statements of last week, that it would
be a bad precedent to establish. that
Wallach was not a practicing physi-
clan, and that regular practitioners
should not be insulted by being asked
to recognize him He looked upon the
lepers at Molokai much in the same
light that he did upon private patients.
whom he most assuredly would not al
low to insist on his consulting with
man like Wallach, with regard to
treatment, nor would he use quack
remedies at request of patients. I'll
they didn't have confidence in him he
would quit, and they could get anoth-
er doctor.
DR.. Wayson made a strong argument
in support of Wallach7s being given
the chance he asks for He stated that
he had had considerable to do With
lepers and was sorry to say that he
had never been able to cure the dis
ease. He does not believe in Wallach
for a minute, but is looking to the
easiest and quickest way of getting
rid of him. 1T will be a darned sight
easier and quicker way of proving him |
a fraud than by opposing him." was
Wayson's conclusion. Regarding the
demands made by ether members that
Wallach be required to show proof of
what he claimed to have done, Wayson !
stated that this might be hard to do in
any case. He believed that leprosy is |
sometimes self curing, the same as
tuberculosis is known to be. He might
claim to have cured case of consump-
ton, and it would be difficult to prove
that he had or had not In leprosy
there are a number of diseases which
in some respects resemble the dread
malady, and would be exceedingly
hard to show that any person now
well, had or had not had It,
Regarding the matter of professional
ethics, which seems to be the Stun
bling block to DR.. Baldwin, and other
DR.. Wayson stated that
he thought he had had about as much
experience with that sort Of thing as
the next physician, and reminded DR..
that there are legalized medi-
cal quacks as well as other kinds.
There was more talk by Pinkham
and all the others along the same gem
eral lines of their first arguments,
when DR.. Wayson finally called for a
vote, and the question was quickly set
lied once more, in so far as the Board
mas ability to settle II.
