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 that unfinished condition, borne have advanced the suggestion that it was left unpaved so that the corner curb might be laid more easily, and others th«t it was necessarry to leave it so to put in tho connecting sewer to the sand trap. This latter Is perhaps the correct solution, but upon the arrival of a government inspector who is ex pected in a few days the matter >vil! he put before him and the much talked of problem solved.
