INFLUENZA
UNPLEASANT FORM IN WELLINGTON. WELLINGTON, This Day. This week has seen the development of a very unpleasant form of influenza, the result of which is that many city office and warehouse staffs are depleted. The malady begins with a sudden cold, flooding of the eyes and then attacks the chest, causing a hacking cough and great weakness; with a tendency to pneumonia unless cared for. It is stated that, despite official reports to the contrary; a very serious form of influenza has been prevalent in Sydney and Melbourne. During the throe weeks prior to June 3 there were 36 deaths in Sydney attributable to influenza.—--Press Assn.
