HEALTH SITUATION
BECOMES SERIOUS
IN NEWPORT

Reports of the cultures in the
Grades Of the West school, Newport,
where diphtheria has appeared, will
be received from the State labara-
tory at Burlington this afternoon.
Grades three and four and the first
grade taught by Miss Corley are
closed today awaiting the result Of
the examination which was conduct
ed Sunday.
DR.. C. F. Dalton, secretary of the
State Board of Health, and Dr. C. F,
Slayton, both of Burlington, were
here Sunday and with a special COM
mittee from the aldermanic council
visited the homes and took cultures
in all three grades where diphtheria
has appeared. A few of the pupils
could not be reached Sunday and they
were assembled Monday morning at
one of the school rooms and cultures
taken. Whenever any positive cul-
lures are found the homes of these
children will be Immediately quar-
antined.
No theory has been advanced as
to the cause of the disease and every
precaution is being taken to prevent
its spreading. Fortunately the two
cases are very mild ones, The patients
that have the disease are Marion
Parker of the fourth Grade and Merle
Powers of the second grade.

turned over to relatives. Officials at
the home office withheld comment ON
! the case aside from saying that every
prccaution had been taken and every
means resorted to, including forcible
feeding during the last few days in
an effort TO kee0 the prisoner alive.
Terrence MacSwiney was 40 years
Old and was one of the most prom
lnent Sim Feiners in Ireland. He
started life as drapers assistant,
but became a poet, author and play
wright before taking up politics seli-
ously Liter he became violently anti
English. While in Wakefield jail,
Yorkshire, in 1916, he met Murial
Murphy, daughter Of Il wealthy Cork
disteller, who visited the jail and
| shortly after, they were married de-
spite much opposition. MacSwney
was elected Sim Fein member
from Cork to the British Parliament
in 1918, but did not take his seat
He was present at the first session
of the Irish p raailmnetinoemheri
Of the Irish Parliament in 1919, when
the establishment of the Republic
was confirmed and was elected Lord
Mayor Of Cork in 1920 For various
political otfenses he had been in jail
with blie Intervals Of liberty since
January, 1916, and in October 1917
secured his release from Jail by hung
er striking.
Governmental interference with
funeral arrangements is regarded as
unlikely. The progress Of the fun
eral party from Dublin to Cork will
be marked by series of services at
all of the popular centers enroute.
Final obsequies will be held in Cork
Cathedral and burial will be made in
st. Sin Bars cemetery in Cork. The
grave, in which MacSwiney will be
buried, is known as the Republican
Plot, which has been reserved for
Irish Nationalist soldiers. Mae
Swiney's grave will be alongside that
of his official predecessor, Lord Mayor
Thomas MacCurtain, who was shot
in his own home in Work on March
20. MacSwiney will be the fourth to
be buried in this plot, the others
being MacCurtain, McQuirke, who
was taken out of bed in his Gala
way home and shot and another
who participated in the Easter up
rising in Dublin in 1916. AS soon as
the news of the Lord Mayors death
began to spread THROUGH the city,
small knots began moving towards
Blixton prison. The "olice, however,

NEED NEW BLOOD IN
VERMONT POLITICS
SAYSCE0. F. ROOT
Democratic Candidate for
Lieut-Gov. Gives News i'll
Exclusive Interview

"Thc infusion Of progressive, new
blood into Vermont politics, the
retirement to private life Of the con-
selvative element in the Republican
party must be effected in order to
secure, to the voters Of the Green
Mountain State, the maximum eff
cheney in political administration" "
Thus spoke George Frank Root, Of
Newport, Democratic nominee Tor
Lieutenant-GoVemor, in an exclusive
interview granted today to a repre-
sentative Of the Calcdonan Record.
"The Republican party has been IN
power too long. Commissions have
been punposcly augmented in order to
give to fuvolites those oft-Quoted 'po-
litical plums' which are as supcrf1ouS
as they are unnecessary to com

be serving the best interests Of the
state.
1t was a busy day for the Demo

tinually stepping into his large fur

St When a customer demanded par
ticulallv the services Of the propIie-
tor, Mr. Root was obliged to divide
his attention between the interview
and the customer. In addition to the
furniture and hardware business, the
nominee runs an extensive insurance
agency.
Just a moment please" he said, as
he jumped u" energetically from the
swivel chair in his private Office, Il
will be right back" The rotund
figure of the Democratic candidate
was brmming over with actiVitv and

transact some important insurance

business, and hurried back into his

NEWPORT WOMAN
COMMITS SUICIDE
BY CUTTING THROAT
DespOndent Over Ill Health
Mrs. UttOn Takes
Own Life

Mrs. w. G.. Uttin, of Indian Point
St., Newport, early Saturday evening,
in a fit Of dependency, committed
suicide, by slashing her throat with
her husbands razor So deep was the
incision, the jugular artery being sew
cred completely, that death followed
her ,elf-inficted act in three minutes.
MI. Uttin, whose husband is the
superintendent Of the Newport Stock
Farm, the large racing stables owned
by DR.. J. H. Gaines Of this city, had
been out for a drive Saturday after
noon. She was accompanied by Mrs.
Il. T. Corey, who noticed nothing
about Mrs. Uttin that might indicate
her later act.
Returning from the drive, Mrs. Ut
tin is said to have gone to the bath
room in her home. Seeing her hus-
bands razor lying upon a shelf, she
seized it and slashed her throat. On
account Of the great loss of blood,
he end came before medical aid could
DC rushed to her
Mrs. Uttin had been suffering for
4 long time from goitre, which had
grown to such size that it caused
congestion of the brain, which may
have accounted for the dcspondent
lct. Newport people are shocked to
hear of the ghastly manner in which
Mrs. Uttin took her own life. The
mother Of Mrs. Uttin had also com
mitted suicide years ago by taking
poison. A close parallel obtains be-
tween the death Of the mother and
Mrs. Uttin's own tragic end. At the
time of their suicides, both daughter
and mother were seized by a fit of
Gespondency.

News Of MacSwiney's death had

there as they usually did in the early
days OF the Lord Mayors hunger

made to take the body to Ireland for
burial.
When one of the officials was ask

absence from the bedside when death
occurred. he replied that restrictions
recently imposed upon the visits OF
relatives were urged by the attending
physicians as vital to the prisoners

BOY CONFESSES
MURDER AFTER
HIS PLEA FAILS

Chicago, Dec. 3.-Nicholas Viana,
former choir boy and known as the
"song bird" of the county Jail, con-
fessed late yesterday to participation
in the killing of Andrew Bowman and
Benedict Wendell in a hold up. The
confession came after Governor
Frank O. Lowden refused to pardon
him this afternoon. Viana is SEN
fenced to die on the gallows Decem
ber 10.
Viana blamed Samuel Cardinella,
leader of the hold up gang, for his
downfall and charged that he was
responsible for the murders. Car
dinella, who is also under sentence
of death, admits participation in the
hold ups, although he denied firing
any of the shots resulting in the
death of the victims.
Because of Viana's youth-he is 19
years old-Miss Jane Adams and
two public school teachers entered
an appeal before Governor Lowden
today to save the youth from the
gallows.

think is right" Viana said tonight,
