This institution will be opened Off
cially for the reception of patients
on December 1st of the present year.
1t is not expected that there will be
accommodation for all applications but
those in charge will do everything
possible to take care of those commit
ed to their care.
DR.. j. P. Widmeyer has been ap--
pointed superintendent and will pass
on all applications. The charges have
been placed at one dollar and fifty
cents per day. This is provisional as
the Law provides that patients shall
pay the cost of their maintenance.
After the Sanitarium has been running
for some time exact data on this
point will be available.
The County Superintendent of
Health of the several counties to-
gether with the Medical members of
the Board Of Trustees have been ap-
pointed examiners. Applicants for ad.
mission should apply to either of
these, receive. an examination and
have all blanks sent to the Superin.
tendent at Dunseith. N. Oak. Upon
approval they will be duly notified as
to when they can be admitted. Ap.
plication blanks contain explicit direc.
tions for the guidance of patients.
On account of the limited appropria,
ton the Board has had to economic
in every detail, but they were all
~actuated by the wish to make the best
use possible of available funds. The
result in the finished product, 1 be.
lieve, will appeal to every unprejudic.
ed person in this light. There is moi
to our knowledge a shoddy part in. the
whole outfit. With the small amount
that was given for equipment mucf
is left for the future to remedy
Friends of the work everywhere vii
be pleased to know that a right start
has been made. It is the peoples in
stitution. 1t is theirs to use, and We
have every confidence that it's future
will be amply provided for.

Berlin, Nov. 26.-The relations be-
tween .Austria-H Hungary and Servia are
strained now so that political circles
in Vienna have abandoned hope of the
preservation of:peace, according to the
Neue ,Gasellschaft-Lic correspondent
which says it has it's information from
a diplomatic source.
Despite the official Austrian denials
of reported mobilization Of the Aus
trian-Hungary army the correspondent
declares five army corps already have
been modified and the reserves con-
tinue to be. called upon in large num-
beers. The Austro-H Hungarian govern
ment,, it continues, is resolved not to
await the return of the Servian troops
operating against the Turks and an
'ultimatum to Servia may be expected
within a few days.
The situation has become more
acute through the changed attitude Of
Russia Sergius Sazenof, the Russian
foreign minister, after having declared
suitable as a basis for further ne
gotiations the Austrian proposal guar
anteeing Servia a free port on the
Adriatic sea and a Servian railway
through Albania but without territor-
ial rights, has abandoned this stand
point. Austria now is disposed to
push the matter to a decision, because
if war is inevitable she wants to take
advantage of her mobilization being
more advanced than that Of Russia.
