Cincinnati April 2:S.-EXceSSive rains

you that my husband has entirely re-

your medicine and receive the benefits

No statement was made that the re-

At the same time there is cause for
regret in the department that even
under the best construction that can
be placed on the dispatch, three officers

number of civilians have conducted
themselves in such manner as to ne
