Something Which Has Caused ln
veatigation at the Hoe, Bal
Mr. John H. Nelbilng. the well
known magistrate, who has been at the
hrspllal for treatment, has returned to
hia home. nnd. U l» understood, says he
rerelt" d burn* while at the hospital.
Mr. Nelbilng. we are informed, says
that while nt the hoarltal hi* back was
mild severely burned with carbolic
at id. How this could have occurred
is a mystery to both superintendent
and nurses.
M:es Hays, who is most vigilant, was
asked about the matter today nod sa d
that she had investigat'd the matter
thoroughly and could in no way ex
plain how any burns were received ex
cept that hi> might possibly
hove gotten them from the
bath tub; that carbolic acid
was sometimes used It in it and that a
few drops might have adhered to the
Mm and 'n this way the burns might
have occurred.
WHO SHOULD FIX IT?
A Broken Place in the Sidewalk
Which Has Attracted Attention.
There Is possibly hardly a person In
town who has passed over the pave
ment or the government building but
has noticed tbs unpaved section on tho
extreme corner of Greene and Camp
boil streets. Many have remarked on
it others have noticed it. and passed
, n but all have doubtless wondered
why one of the finest pavements in the
ell-—and government property at that
—should have been left for so long in
