Hugh Burns is Showing Remarkable Vitality.

Hammond TmTes. Hugh Burns, the central figure in the Schneider shooting on Monday night, who is in St. Margaret’s hospital in Hammond suffering from a number of bullet wounds, is showing remarkable vitality. He has not yet passed the crisis and is therefore in great danger of either pneumonia or blood poisoning. In the meantime, however, he seemingly has a fair chance to recover. His wife, who he tried to kill, and Frank Parson, a Schneider resident who was hit by one of Burns’ bullets, are both getting along all right, as their wounds were not serious.
