tsry Of Health Board, in Doubt.

Lansing. Mich. March 24.-There is
considerable speculation in capitol cir
cles these days as to whether DIR. f. w,
Shumway, secretary Of the state board
Of health. will be re-appointed by Gov
ernor Osborn. 1t is known that DR..
Shumway's friends have been busy in
his behalf for some time, but whether

to convince the chief executive that
DR.. Shumway should be continued in
the Office which he has held for some
time, is not known.
DIR. Shumwas has many friends
among the medical fraternity of the
state who would be glad to see him
continued in the Office, hut he also has

cleaned up its slate with the excep-
tion Of one bill. The bin of great in

of the mortgage is 10 be charged mp
on recording the mortgage and II rs
forever after that free from TAXATION
