Bri-denhaugh, 50, retired banker of Coleridge, leaped to his death yesterday afternoon from tho Douglas Street bridge into tho Missouri river. Mr.

Bridenbaugh, who hud been confined at the St. Bernard's hospital in Council Bluffs for tho past two months, is thought to have a relapso and escaped from his nurse, Miss Nancy Fogg. The nurse and Oscar Fleming, a hospital attendant, had taken Mr. Bridenbaugh and another patient to an Omaha theater. Tho body of the buicido victim lias not been recovered.

How the man escaped from Ills nurse has not been learned. Authorities at St. Bernard's hospital had not learned of Mr. Bridenbaugh's death until Omaha detectives informed them. Identification of the victim was made through a letter addressed to Dr.

It is one of the encour aging signs of tho times that country town business men are coming to realize this. It has not been so long ago that every littlo town thought that its business was to grow into a city just as soon as possible. Some towns and many town people still think so. Many small town people, too, still think that their chief relations and interests are with the cities rather than the country. Tho inott farseemg business men have come to know better.

They me seeing more and more cleorly that tho town, the binall city, is an integral part of Lho country, that it prospers only as the country prospers, and tho it lias its place in the scheme of things be the life center oi tl country about it. The town merchant who oppose co-operative buying selling by the farmers of his tviri-tory, tho town banker who would hinder the establishment of farm loan associations in his county, tho town editor who neglects tho interests of the back-country districts, coming to see that they are out of date. Best jjl all, town folks are coming to ese that they tiro out of date. Not until the country and tho country town learn that they arc yoke fellows and must pull together can either moko tho progress it should. And both are learning.
