STAND BY Or. BRACKEA
,kato Physician Opposed Ia
Forcing Health Board Sec
rotary To Resign

DR.. H. M. Bracken, head of the
state board of health, has friends
among the profession, who would
dislike to see him removed from his
present office. In speaking of the
case today, Dr. j. w. Andrews
formerly senator from this district
said;
Il have known DR.. Bracken fol
many years, both before and after
he became the head of the state
board of health. I have watched witt
tive officer Of the state board, and
have but one criticism to make. That
is, his strong will and determination
in his purposes have made him mis-
understood in many cases. He has
made a most excellent health Off
cial, has been very efficient, ant
has brought the health department
of the state of Minnesota to an eff
cheney that outranks most OF the
states, and that is not excelled by
any. He has made a few bitter
enemies among the members of the
senate. These men happen to be or
the financial committee. and this
probably is the reason fC> the atti-
tude of the legislature toward DR..
Bracken. These men are human and
prejudiced, and behind them are
three or four physicians, all seeking
DR.. Bracken's position, and for thai
reason trying to get him out. Were
the advisory commission for tuber'
cular senatoriam merged with the
state board of health as it ought te
be, the work would be more efficient
and result in saving in money to the
state. | know of no man who would
supervise that work better than Dr..
Bracken. 1t would be a mistake and
an injustice to discharge him at this
time"

the popular operation on her throat.
Mrs. Smith is doing well. Upon the re
turn trip well known farmer, who
resided upon the poor farm road was
seen trying to recover his hat which

and socks and waded after it thus
earning the distinction of being the
first lin" of the season. When asked
if 'the water was fine" he answered.

che reached home she was about to
start fire and sent her young
daughter to fetch match. The
match safe was placed high so as
to be safe from the smaller children
and Mabel had to reach for it, In
some way the safe was knocked
down and as it scraped its way 10
Ithe floor the matches were ignited
and quite sharp little fire resulted
which fortunately was extinguished
without much damage, but it con
tributed it's share to the days record
of excitement. When the mail came
Mrs. Plumb received letter from
her mother, Mrs. NJ G.. Smith OF
Sioux Falls reciting the story of an
accident that had happened to Mrs

was employed in a cafe in that city
and as he stepped upon the stairs of
the basement in some way he fell
striking on the top of his head. When
taken to the hospital it was found
that his skull had been cracked bad l.
ly and the chances are that he will
not recover. Mrs. Plumb has no
news of her fathers condition.

Was Missing and Wife
Worried

His sign language mistaken by

neither read nor write, travelled from
Minneapolis to Gilmore, Iowa, in a
series of journeys which took him
farther and farther from home de-
spite his efforts to make himself un,
derstood that he wanted to return,
says The Minneapolis Tribune.
Mr.. Fargo last Saturday afternoon
left his home, 309 Seventh street
south, to visit a friend. He endeavor-
ed to make his friend understand the
sign language. The friend thought
Mr. Fargo wanted to go to his former
home at Blue Earth, Mimi, so he
took him to the station, bought
ticket and put him aboard train.
Went to Blue Earth.
On meeting friends at Blue Earth
Mr.. Fargo tried to tell them that he
wanted to return to Minneapolis. They
likewise mistook his signs and
thought he wanted to- visit relatives in
Algoma, Iowa. So they took him to
train. and started him on his jour-

Mr.. Fargo looked up his relatives
there.
Was Set Right.
Mrs. Fargo was notified last night
that her husband was visiting his
mother and would return to Mime
apolis on Monday.
