The old ward building situated im- mediately south of the auditorium was erected in 1885, he said. It is occupied by 70 male patients. “It is not fireproof and constitutes a menace to the safety of the hospi- tal.” he warned. “The building has INSANE HOSPITAL’ THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE MONDAY, JANUARY 9, 1938 Two Women Listed Among Dead as Feudist Guns Roar in Kentucky Legislative Calendar BILLS INTRODUCED nate Ser 8.

He tried to carry on but the loss was too great. So Sunday he killed himself. He was found dead in his office in the house office building—a bul- let through his head and a new pis- tol in his hand.
