Milton Roth returned from Chicago Monday evening, where he has been since Sunday with Mi wife and son.

Swift, of Evanston, since which time he has been confined to the -bed. He is very weak and has a high fever most of the time. Up to now the doctors have not pronounced the case definitely, but they state that there is a oomplicalon of .appendix trouble and bronchitis.
