COSTS MONEY TO HAVE
STOMACH INVESTIGATED

I'VE have received no communi-
cation from Coroner Lockard Of
Dickinson county, as to whether he
wants to proceed with the examina-
tion of the viscera OF Milton Peters,
who died suddenly at his home
fourteen miles north of Abilene last
January" said DR.. P. B. Dains this
morning.
Lockard has sent the stomach and
heart to the university but there is
a question as to whether the inter-
ested parties will want to bear the
expense of the examination.
An analysis of this kind requires
about three weeks Of tedious work
and a charge is made for the time
spent by the men doing the work.

Coroner o. Lockard has asked the
county commissioners for the money

would cost about 5000. The COM
