Gentlemen: On the 25th of January
I addressed a letter to the Board in

temptuous reply from the President.
] have nothing to do with any private
communication addressed to DR.. John
Atcherley.
AS matter of fact we are at pres
ent obliged to pay for club in order
to get proper medical treatment
which cost us less than employing your
appointee, DIR. Goodhue.
Still we are not blind to the fact
that we, and not you, 'President of

DR.. Goodhue s salary, through the
taxes.
| am well aware that [ am not the
only one whom an overweening sense
of responsibility to the wishes of the
people has led you to treat discourte-
ously.

AL.AWA'S
PETITION
Or. Goodhue's Opposer
Answers President
Pinkham.

Editor Advertiser: One would have
thought that President Pinkham of the
Board of Health had been contradicted
fatty enough and often enough in his
public statements concerning health
affairs in Kona to make him more care
full in speaking. But. no! Here again
in the Bulletin of Jan. is, there is:
President Pinkham reported at the
Board of Health meeting on the 18th
as follows: 81 present herewith a Pc
tition of David Alawa and others, re-
questing change of Government Ply
stefan in the District of Kona. As Mr..
AIawa mentions the name of the ply
stefan they desire substituted the petit
ton is open to suspicion, and so on.
Then he continues to say that 50 Dr.
Goodhue wrote refuting all the
charges, that the petition had been
signed by 240 persons including the
names of many women and children,
that the petition had been circulated
by Mrs Atcherley and many sigma
lures on it had not been placed there
by the hearers of these names. -
The above statement is utterly false.
The tabling of the petition on the
SIOuHilS Ol SutE lJldCtui dtO
is an insult to the 240 people who have
signed it, seven-eighths of whom are
voters. Every signature is genuine
and ! can prove it to be so. That ''the
names of women and children occur
is as false as it is ridiculous | should
like to know what evidence there is
for such a wild accusation. If neces-
sary we viii produce another petition
with every name witnessed by a no
tary public. OF course such a thing
has never been necessary before and
the people of the Konas propose to
know the reason why the Board of
Health should treat them with con-
tempt. an act for which there is no
precedent.
Let DIR. Goodhue produce a counter
petition if he can in his own favor.
As for the charges against him I can
produce actual bills and the details of
treatment in support of them.
The person responsible for the circu-
lation of the petition is myself. For
my own part, as one of the clean per-
sons arrested by DR.. Goodhue and as
the one who sent in the petition
against him, [ have received no per-
sonal explanation from the Board of
Health. but merely curt note inform
ing me that the petition is tabled.

Dear Sir: Your favor of January
25th at hand.
IF DR.. John Atcherley chooses to

NOT PROMOTED; ENDS HIS LIFE
Dennis Sick and Disappointed Because Expected Promotion
Did Not Maerialize Shoots Himself

G.. G. Dennis, general agent of the
Chicago & Northwestern railway in
Deadwood, killed himself by the dis
charge of a twenty-five caliber rifle.
He had been depressed for several
days, and was unusually nervous all
the morning. His wife left him to go
up stairs, and when she returned he
was missing. She found him in the
cellar, dead.
He was forty-three years Of age, and
was born in Clinton, Iowa. He came
to Deadwood in 1898 from OMAHA
where he had been station baggageg-
master for the Northwestern. He sue
ceeded G.. w. Harmon when he en-
tered upon his duties as division SUI
perintendent of the road.
In 1889 Mr.. Dennis married Miss
Carry Willis of Blair, Neb. He is sur
vived by widow and two children.
He recently had been disappointed
by a failure to secure two promotions
for which he applied. This, in con-
nection with chronic stomach trouble,
from which he has been sufferer
for several years, is believed to have
been the principal cause of his sui
eide. He was man of good habits,
a Mason and member of the A. O..

His Brother, Who Fled Terror strlok-
en-, Returns and Explains.
The mystery surrounding the death
of a two-year-old son of Edward An
derson of Webster, who was found
dead near his fathers barn with
bullet hole in his head, has been
solved, and there no longer is any
doubt that he was killed as the result
Of an accident instead of having been
shot and killed by his twelve-year-old
brother, as was at first supposed.
The disappearance of the older boy
Immediately following the shooting
and killing of the child was taken to
mean that possibly as the result of an
accident the older boy had shot and
killed his little brother. The missing
boy has been found, and he says that
he had gone into the barn with his
twenty-five caliber rife. and, after
firing a few shots at mark, stood
the weapon against the outside Of the
building while he went into shed
in search of stick.
His younger brother had accompa-
MED him, and while Alexander was in
the shed the little fellow took hold
of the rifle, which was discharged, the
bullet striking him in the forehead.

Omaha June S. - A very insignifi-

heavy damage to the stock of the
Haiden Bros. department store and
the narrow escape from death Of fit
teen firemen and a police surgeon yes

of unknown origin, had done more
than 100000 damage before it started

the entire five floors of the building
before 1t was discovered. The total
value of the stock is given at $780,
600, and the damage at one-half that
amount. The building was so filled
with carbolic acid gas that the first
firemen to enter the place were over

sistence rapidly succumbed until it
was necessary to take fifteen of them,
including Chief Salter Assistant Chief

men and women, who had spent the
evening at Crescent Park, a pleasure
resort on the Providence river six
miles below this city, were on char
tered car returning to their homes in
this city, Olneyville and Thornton. 1t
is believed that two of the injured will
die
Did Not Know the Road.
The motorman in charge of the car.
w. j. Laucher of Olneyville, although
experienced in his calling, was unfa-
miliar with the road over which he
was travelling for the first time.
Laucher was put in charge of the car
at the solicitation of the passengers,
members of a Catholic society, which
had been to Crescent Park for an out
Ing. The car, an open one of heavy
build, was crowded with young men
and women.
Fog prevented a clear view of the
road ahead, and the motorman unable
to see far ahead and unaware of the
sharp curve below, allowed the car to
coast rapidly down the hill.
Realized Peril Too Late.
Suddenly he felt the car swing into
the curve, and realizing the peril, APP.
piled the brakes and reversed the
power. The weight of number of
men on the running board and the mo-
mentum sufticed to derail the car and
throw it into the road twenty feet
from the track.
Seven of the passengers We're pin
Toned beneath the car and instantly
killed. Those who We're able began
the work, of rescue. A large joist was
utilized as lever, pile of stones
forming a fulcrum, and the car was
raised from the ground just enough to
permit the escape of it's imprisoned
passengers.
Injured Are Killed.
Two persons had succeeded in es-
Gaping when the joist broke under the
weight of the car and the heavy We
hicle fell back, killing two of the in
iured.
The rescuers again raised the car
from the ground and by building a pile
of heavy stone, kept it in position
while the dead and injured were re-
moved Two of those taken out died
within an hour.

Murdo, the coming city Of Lyman

the first building was erected here.
To-day there are forty business houses
and many residences and tents. The
buildings are not on the townsite

sistant, A. F. La Claire, and made the
statement that the lot sale would take

everything to make a complete town

Wagner People Organize Fire De
partment.


AS the result of recent fire at
Wagner which was eXtinguished only
after energetic efforts on the part of
the business section, a number of the
local young men have perfected the
organization of volunteer fire de-
partment.. A committee was ap-
pointed to purchase the necessary fire
fighting apparatus and another COM
mittee was empowered to secure a
site for an engine Aouse and arrange
for the construction of the building.
This will be located at a central point
so when fire breaks out in any part
of town they can easily be reached.
Among the equipment to be pur-
chased will be fire bell, with which
give alarms. When the apparatus
received Wagner will be we'll pro-
vided against fire. The volunteer fire
department will speedily become one
of the most efficient in this part Of
the state.
