Alfred Dennis, once wandering the city and deluded by symptoms, improved under Dr. Charles Baker’s care and early this week was up and clothed.

Separately, James Miles, a Chicago & Alton railroad brakesman turned conductor, suffered a severe hand injury in a train collision and musters through amputation at the second joint, with hopes of returning to duty once healed.
