Aged Bishop

Press dispatches received yesterday
from Philadelphia are to the effect
that the venerable Bishop Whitaker
OF the Episcopal dicese OF Pennsyl-
vania is in greatly weakened con
dition, and because Of his advancing
age has but a slender chance OF re
covery The condition Of Bishop
Whitaker is a matter Of concern to
many persons in Nevada, Tor the
Bishop formerly was in charge OF the
missionary diocese OF Nevada when
part of Nevada and part of Utah
were joined. During the Comstock
days he was the leader of the Episco-
pal Church and his labors took shape
in the founding of Whitaker Hall,
whose alumnae number many III Re
no. About year ago Bishop Whit
takers wife died and he was for a
time threatened with blindness. He
has been i'll charge of the Pennsyl-
vania diocese for many years and IS
regarded as one of the most distin-
guished ecclesiastics in the Episco-
pal Church
By coincidence, Archbishop Ryan
of the Catholic diocese OF Pennsyl
vania, is also reported dying III the

Hamilton has very small Office and it
almost matter of impossibllity to do

always crowd sitting around talking.

and there ought to be a seperate office

Judge Ford bold court in his present
Office and the sheriffs present Office
moving the sheriff into the Office now
occupied by Clerk Hamilton. The

A BLESSING.
The Hospital Is Proving Itself To The
People Of Lancaster And Vicinity.
A BLESSING.

Bringing to our very doors a1van-
tages which heretofore could only be
obtained in Lexington, Louisville or
some city, the Lancaster Hospital is
proving to be great boom to those
who are so unfortunate as to become
seriously sick.
Here are to be found all the advant-
age which we have at the metropolitan
hospitals. and without the necessity of
a railroad journey, which is fatiguing
to a well person, much less one who is
sick, to say nothing of the dangers at
tendant upon the transportation of o
person for some distance who is sick
enough to enter hospital.
Mrs. Will d. Walker as Matron o1
/, the local institution looks after the
| comfort and welfare of the patients ir
so far as her part of these duties are
required, in a manner which We are
satisfied cannot be excelled IN any Of
the large institutions. The nurse il
charge, Miss Florence Darnell OF
Maysville KY, is one of the best train
ed nurses in the state, and gives to al
who come within her care as efficien
and intelligent attention as could b'
had anywhere.
AS for medical attention, you ma!
have your own physician, and neces
sity demands, or it be deemed advis
able, you may call in any physician
from distance that you may desire.
There has always existed a certain
amount of prejudice in the minds of
great many people against hospitals il
general, but the home institution i
rapidly dispelling this delusion. At
hospital one may have the very best o
skilled attention, trained nurse is al
ways in call, knows just exactly wha
to do in case of emergency, and if tn
occasion demands it physician can b
called in much less time than if tn
patient was at his or her home.
All of this may be had at a cos
equal to if not less than the expense O
a serious illness at ones own home.
