 A despatch from Lowell, Mass, under date of January 23. says: Medical science has achieved in this oity in the past few weeks what is hailed as triumph.
 Mrs. Edward F. Cushing, wife of the proprietor of a hotel, and Frank w. Hurd, treasurer of one of the city s larg- est banking institutions, were stricken with pneumonia. Each was believed to be dying and hope had been given up. Then the laboratory of the Tufts College medical school came to their assistance. To, day Mrs Cushing is well on the road to recovery and Mr. Hurd has fully recovered.
 Both Mrs, Cushing and MT Hurd credit their recovery to the very newest thing in the treatment of pneumonia, the vac cine treatment, introduced Tn the city by few young physicians, graduates of the Tufts medical school.
 Another interesting local case is that of a man taken to one of the hospitals recently suffering from pneumonia and at the point of death. Both lungs were affected and the physicians had no hope of his recovery, in fact his death was expected at any moment. AS a last resort tho vaccine method was tried and to-day the patient is greatly improved and his medical advisors believe that he will recover

HOOKWORM IN SPRINGFIELD
A Case of This Disease Has Just Been
 Treated in Hospital There.

A Case of This Disease Has Just Been
 Treated in Hospital There.
 The first case of hookworm disease on record in Springfield, and perhaps in New England, has recently been treated in the Mercy hospital, and the patient, Miss Louisa Johnson of Hancock street, is now at her home recovering. Local physicians have been keenly interested in the case and the treatment of it has been watched by many. No doubt is felt that the woman had the disease which Rockefeller gave S1,000,000 to have studied and fought scientifically Specimens of the worm have been found and the disease has responded we'll to the treatment.
 The worm does not reproduce inside the body. Eggs or larvae enter through the skin or sometimes in the drinking water. The worm works its way into the blood. through the heart and thence into the lungs and the bronchial tubes, the throat and the digestive canal, where it does most of it's work. It is supposed to destroy many of the red blood corpus. cles, thus causing the anemia, for which it is often diagnosed. The disease weakens the patient and causes the life- lessness which gives it the name of the 'lazy disease" The treatment is sim pie. An antiseptic is administered, fol- lowed by the cleansing out of the diges- tive tract. It is not difficult to over- come the disease when it is found out what the patient is suffering with. Dr. Edgar O. Collins was Miss Johnson's s physician, but many others have been interested ill the case.

LETTER FROM A CITIZEN
Expressing His Opinions in the Matter
 of Laying Taxes.
EDITOR THE NEWS:

of Laying Taxes.
 EDITOR THE NEWS:
 The method pursued in the matter of town finances this year is worth estaU- fishing as a precedent to be followed Tn the future. There was an effort made to fit income to expenditure Tn manner which must approve itself to all, though there may be some difference of opinion as to just what the figures should be. It has been customary with us to vote our tax rate before we knew what our grand list would be and with very little study or public discussion of the probable ex- pense. This year the laying of a tax was delayed until after the assessors had done their work and then there was an attempt to form budget for the year. This is absolutely necessary for the in telligent laying of tax, and it is a good thing to do anyway. This method has been followed ill large number of towns ill the state this year.
 You will hear it said that this cannot be satisfactorily done as It Is impossible to tell what the expenditures will be. Of course you cannot tell to the penny, but if England or the city of New York can work out a satisfactory budget think country town can do it. England is having great popular campaign because of the budget and in New York, while l,p iC int hop nf hn rfl of Estimates and Apportionment, there has been an effort to interest the public Tn the matter. Interesting and striking handbills were posted around the city and they have even gone to the extent of having Budget Sunday" in the churches Ill order to press upon the citl. zens the duty of an intelligent study of the clty's expenditures. This is all in the interest of wise economy and civic integrity. A careful study on the part of the public of current expenses and fu. ture needs always makes for economy of administration and an increased satis- faction ill the returns on the money a citizen puts into it-unless there is waste, and if there is, the pubic is better fixed for fighting it.
 It seems to me that it would be a good thing each year to have the selectmen and the school board-or a special com mittee appointed for the purpose-make estimates Ot expenses for the coming year and present them to the town meeting, or, what is better, publish them before the meeting so that the citizens would have chance to study them. Or it might be better to wait, as we did thls year, until the assessors have done their work and the new board of select. men have made their estimates. This would certainly help us to vote intellI- gently on this important matter.

Durham, who was still conscious at
10:30 this morning.
Durham turned in a false alarm at
1 o'clock this morning and opened
fire upon the members of hose COM
paHy No. when they reached the
box at Spruce and Second streets.
Later he beat his wife and baby to
death. 1t is thought he was driven
insane by brooding over fancied
wrongs, while employed at the fire
house. When he left the company
he treasured a grudge against sew
eral other firemen. He had threat
ened to get them ALL" but the fire
men thought he was only talking.
When the alarm was sounded,
five members of company No. re-
sponded with the engine and hose
reel. Don Grant, chief engineer of
the company, was shot down by Dur
ham just as the alarm box was
reached. Grant fell from the rear

Durham easily might have shot
Engine Driver, Woods and Hoseman
Messenger, but after looking keenly
at them, turned and walked across
the street. He had no grudge
against them, it is said.
The wounded men were taken to

companies and a dozen police.
Captain Sampsell is shot in the
lungs and probably will die. Little
hope is expressed for Elliott's recov-
cry.
In their search for the murderer
the police went to Durham's apart
ments, just opposite the court house
There they found the bodies of his
wife and baby, beaten with clul
almost to a jelly.
Durham of late has been out o.

ON ELECTION BOARDS OF THE
COUNTY FILE THEIR ACCEPT
ANCE WITH THE COUNTY
CLERK.

But 11S out of 800 of the election
judges and clerks appointed by the
board of county commissioners have
so far accepted, and unless the re-
mainder forward their acceptance
prior to the adjournment of the
board which is now in session it will
be necessary for the board to ap-
point other persons in their stead.
According to County Clerk Allen
those appointed are not only slower
in making their acceptance, but the
percentage of refusals is greater
than ever before. The clerk has re-
ceived refusal after refusal, and the
reasons for declining to serve range
all the way from a plea of lack Of
time down to a complaint that those
appointed have seen service before
in the same line and they think it is
time to pass the job on to someone
else. A list is being made of the
names of those who have refused
and when presented to the board Of
commissioners other appointments
will be made.

ell, of the London police, will sail for
Canada Thursday, carrying papers
deemed necessary for the transfer of
DR.. H. H. Crippen and Mile. Leneve
to London jurisdiction. Although
extradition is not necessary between
England and her colonies, the police
are not overlooking any precaution in
their fight to convict the American
dentist and his companion.
Inspector Dew, who is now in Que
bee, originally planned to return TO
London Immediately with his prison
ers. The change of plans makes it
impossible for him to leave for home
within a fortnight. In the mean
time, the local authorities will gain
additional time for establishing the
identity of the body found in DR..

Mother Appeals to Daughter


London, Aug. 1.-The mother of
Mile. Ethel Glare Leneve today cabled
her daughter, who is held at Quebec
with DR.. H. H. Crippen, to tell the
police all she may know concerning
the case.
'I have been fearing that Crippen
might injure my daughter" said
Mile. Leneve's mother today. "I am
relieved that he is in custody We
are angry that our child has de-
ceived us, but we do not think she
knew Of the horrible crime of which
Crippen is suspected. We believe that
DR.. Crippen told her something was
wrong with his business of which she
might be suspected of completely"
Inspector Dew and his prisoners
are expected here next Thursday. Ar
rangements for a speedy trial are un-
der way. 1t is reported that the Scot
land Yard officials have secured new
evidence that the body found in the
cellar Of No. SO Hilldrop Crescent,

Crlppen and Consort in Jail.

Quebec, Aug. 1.-Manacled and
closely guarded, DR.. Hawley H. Grip
pen, suspected of the murder of his
wife, Belle Elmore Crippen, in their
London home, was brought ashore to-
day and taken to the Quebec prison.
Mile. Ethel Clare Le1eve, his stenog-
rapher, charged as an accessory to the
alleged murder, also was taken off the
liner Montrose, and placed in a cell in
the women's prison.
Unusual precautions were taken by
the police, the widespread publicity
given the details of the murder and
the chase after Crippen and his COM
panion, caused thousands Of persons
TO assemble on the water front for d
glimpse of the prisoners and the
men responsible for their capture.

Story of the Crime.

San Diego, Calf, Aug. Bert
S. Durham, fireman, who ran amuck
last night, shot and killed one fire
man, wounded two others and beat
his wife and child to death, today
made his way to the plaza in the
heart of the city and shot himself
through the head. He will probably
die,
Armed men searched for Durham
throughout the night.
Early today Durham sent in a
false alarm of fire. Hiding near the
firebox, he opened fire when hose
cart No. drove up. He killed
Fireman Grant and wounded Captain
Sampsell and Fireman Elliott. He
then fed, going to his own home,
where he beat his wife and child to
death. Durham then returned to
the city on a street car. He was
recognized by a few persons.
After alighting from the car he
walked coolly to corner and bought
paper Hurriedly scanning the
headlines, telling of the shooting, he
entered the plaza and walked out
upon the lawn. Drawing his reyol-
yer, he placed the muzzle just above
the right ear and sent bullet into
his brain. Policeman Kirkland saw
the man just before he drew his re
volver, rushed toward him and was
only a few feet away when the shot
was fired. Durham was taken to
the Emergency hospital, here it was
announced that he might recover,
When it was learned that the
murderer had attempted to commit
suicide and almost succeeded, talk
of violence died down. An effort
