LOCKJAW PATIENT
INDEPENDENCE DAY VICTIM
SURPRISES DOCTOR.
Patient Shot Himself in Hand with
Blank Cartridge-Hindered Work
of Physicians.

Physicians attached to st. Michaeps
Hospital are gratified at the success
of the treatment they gave to Jacob
Pilewski, who was a Fourth Of July
victim, having been attacked with
tetanus following the woundlng of HIM
self with a blank cartridge.
1t was ten days after the accident
that the man was taken to the hos
pital. After shooting himself he gave
the wound only ordinary trea tment,
and was unaware of the fact that lock-
jaw was developing.
When he began to suffer greatly a
physician was called, and the man was
ordered to the hospital for proper care.
His Jaws had been locked for several
days, and the only way in which food
could be given to him to support life
was through a tube inserted In his
nostrils. The medicine was given to
him in the form of hypodermic injec-
tions.
He responded to the treatment and
the jaws became somewhat loosened.
After this a plug was placed in the
mans mouth so as to permit the ad-
mission of food, but the man ignorantly
took out the plug, with the result that
the jaws were reset and the physi-
clans had to repeat the treatment.
BY this time, however, the medicine
had done some good, and the second
effort was not so severe as the first.
The patients strong constitution fa-
cilitated the work of the medicine, and
he is now able to eat and to take
medicine. He suffers now only from a
little stiffness.

would go beyond the $20,OO0,O00 mark
mentioned yesterday, and would be be-
tween $21, 100000 and $22. 100000. The
total valuation today was estimated at
$437 900, 900 as against $415, 155, 900 last
year.
II. l.. Johnstone, Glen Ridges tax
assessor, appeared at the office of the
County Tax Board today and explained
to President Lathrop Anderson that he
had forgotten the fact that he was
required to file the duplicate the first
Tuesday in August. He stated that his
books were almost ready, and he would
be prepared to file them in few days.
1t was estimated by Assessor john
son that the ratables in Glen Ridge
would be increased about 100000 this
year The total assessment last year
was SO, 800, 40O which will bring the
figures this year over $4000,000.
