connected with the beginning of ac

hospital, for which he is a member Of
the legislative session. secured an ap-
preparation last winter. The hospital
was located at Custer but the state
board of charities under whose di-

beginning the work as the securing

appear to be an easy matter. The
people Of Custer have now completed
arrangements which they believe to be
sufficient for all needs, and the doctor
Is out to see what can be done in the
way Of beginning active construction

Of the lack OF q proper site. there has
been some talk Of changing the loca-
ton to some other ~lace. but as the
legislature made it's appropriation for
Custer, with no alternative point 1t
is hardly probable that such move
would stand unless it had specific leg
