Friends of Dr. W. H. Musgrove of
Grafton, vice president of the state
board of health, were shocked to hear
of his suicide at Hudson, Wis. He
was compelled to give up his practice

The Northern Pacific has issued no­
tices to its agents and connections
that considerable change has been
made in the rules hitherto governing
the bulletining of lost, stolen or
scalped tickets, which are desired de­
stroyed by conductors. The list of
tickets has become so long that con­
ductors cannot keep track of them, and
consequently it is almost impossible
to prevent their use. Tickets lost by
passengers will be no longer be bulle­
tined. The practice will be confined
hereafter to tickets stolen directly
from the offices of the company.

ney Allen were prepared to go down
