The lecture which was to have
been given October 10th by Detec-
tive William J. Burns under the aus
pices of the st. Johnsbury Woman's
Club has been necessarily postponed
until November.
While the Boston papers have
stated definitely that Mr.. Burns has
returned to the United States, IL
is a we'll known fact that he ls still
engaged in running down clues In
the famous taxicab case. The post
ponement of his lecture tour has
necessitated cancelling some of his
lectures and this has meant a none
tary loss to him of over $4,000.
However he intends to take i'm st.
Johnsbury on mis- return and will.
no doubt. be better equipped because
of the delay. Mr.. Burns is in the fore
most rank as a lecturer having had
a remarkable detective career and
being a speaker of unusual ability.
We bespeak for him a large audience
which must necessarily follow the in
terest which is already manifest.
The date of the lecture will be an
nounced later.

ALBERT STEELE BURNED
Painfully Injured by Boiling Metal
at The Scale Shops

Painfully Injured by Boiling Metal
at The Scale Shops
Albert Steele was very seriously
burned Monday about noon. The
sweepings from the emery room had
been put into a cauldrOn of boiling
iron and the dirt had caused a crust
to be formed. Probably Mr.. Steele
took a bar of cold iron to break this
crust and it must have slipped
through into the boiling metal caus-
ing it to fly up, burning his face,
arms and hands terribly. He was
instantly crazed with the pain and
ran around the room until some of
his fellow workmen came to his as
sistance. He broke away from them
however in his frantic efforts TO
get away from the awful pain. They
caught him again and Immediately
sent for doctors. He was taken to
Brightlook hospital. His eyesight is
affected, although the doctors can
not tell for few days what the out
come will be. His suffering from
the burns yesterday was not as
great, and his friends are hoping for
the best
Mr.. Steele has been most unfor-
tunate about being burned. At the
time of the fire in the Citizens
Bank Block he was badly burned in
helping his mother from the house.
He has also been more or less seri-
ously burned at his work in the
foundry at E. and T. Fairbanks and
Company at different times.
