Board of Hospital Trustees Elected Officers Friday.

The board of trustees for the proposed Jasper county hospital met Friday afternoon and organized by electing J. D. Allman persident and E. P. Honan secretary. The treasurer, by virtue of law, is the county treasurer. The trustees asked that the president of the medical society, Dr. Besser, of Remington, appoint a committee of physicians to confer with them about the hospital. They drove about Rensselaer looking for a site for the hospital and found several suitable places, but the thorn grove at the south edge of town, seemed the best suited for the purpose. The date of the next meeting was not set, but the hospital trustees will try to meet whenever Dr. Besser’s committee suggests.
