Hospital Tries to

After having threatened to kill Dr.
Oeorge TUden of the board of insanity
commissioners, Mrs. Sarah O'Donnell, a
patient in the Insane ward of the county
hospital, armed herself with a hat pin
and was ' caught dangerously near the
doctor by attendents.
Mrs. O'Donnell, who was committed to
the hospital several weeks ago, blames
Doctor Ttlden and the county commis
sioners for the loss of her liberty. Re
peatedly she declared her intention to
kill the doctor and one of the county
commissioners, 1
When Dr. TUden visited the insane
ward Mrs. O'Donnell went to her room
and a few minutes' later reappeared.
While the physician was talking with
attendants the woman slyly strolled up
behind him. An attendant. Superintendent
Robinson's daughter, observed her and
noted that she held one hand to her
bosom, -an if concealing something. Miss
Robinson caught the woman's hand and
discovered a long hatpin concealed under
her waist She sent Mrs.' O'Donnell back
to her room. Dr. TUden did not know of
his danger until It had passed.

A -new county hospital for the Insane
may be built from the wreckage of the
Douglas court house after It is aban
doned for the new county building, now
nearlng completion. Commissioner Frank
C. Best, chairman of the hospital and poor
farm committee, has suggested to the
board that the old building might be
wrecked and the new material used for a
new Insane hospital. The board now is
considering the feasibility of the plan.
The county hospital and poor farm
buildings now are Inadequate and board
members for several years have ,,greed
that there should be more and belter ac
commodations. The county has two bids
for wrecking the building and has been
expected to accept 11,500 from J. P. Ml
lander, who bid to pay this amount for
the building and remove it. The commis
sioners now are negotiating with others.
If they can find wreckers who will do
the work at cost low enough they will
adopt the hospital plan. .There Is much
good building material in the old struc
ture, but it may be that the cost of
wrecking' will be too great to permit the
adoption of the hospital plan.

Let Us Clean Your
Summer Clothes ,
"
' Tne life of your summer clothes depends more on the way they
are handled by the cleaner than the amount ot wear you give them.
It is well known that Dry Cleaning does not injure the most
delicate color or fabric, but dry cleaning does not always clean sum
mer clothes satisfactorily It will not remove grass or fruit stains,
perspiration and other discolorations; In such cases Wet Cleaning
Is necessary.
RlKht here Is where the "Good Cleaner" shows his worth.
It is impossible usually to tell whether the garment has been
wet or dry cleaned so perfect Is wet cleaning done at the Pantoriura.
Bui don't confuse wet cleaning with washing as done at home
or fn the laundry the garment having been dry cleaned first re
quires but little handling and no harsh treatment. Each one is done
by hand so there Is no danger of tearing, shrinking or pulling out of
shape.r Just the right amount of finish (not starch) Is used to give
it the look and feel of new goods. ,
Send us a trial order and if you are not delighted with the work
you need not pay for It. We give satisfaction or no pay. . . '
Here are a few prices; :. 7
- Plain one-piece dresses, $1.26; fancy $1.60 to $1.75; shirt
waists, 60c; linen suits, $1.60 to $1.75; linen Jackets, $1.25 to
