The fre supnply of serum for the treat
ment of meningitis which the Omaha Health
department has been geltlng from the
Rockefeller Institute has been shut off and
the question Is presented how to provide
ths remedy for patients uhable to pay for
It. Health Commissioner Connell has ad
dressed the secretary of the State Board
of Health on this subtect as follows:
"The Omaha Board of Health, through
Ir. Langfeld. has been notified by the
Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research
that It will no longer supply serum for the
treatment of meningitis. For a brief period
the New York health department will Issue
It on representation that the surrerer from
this disease In absolutely unable to pay for
tha same. . The Institute advises us that
the cost ot the serum, If bought In the
markets. Is almost prohibitive except In
the case of persons of mean. The reason
for furnishing the serum In the past was
that this Institute never recognizes a prod
uct aa cnratlv ' until" It Tias thoroughly
demonstrated Just what It will do. The
reports of the action of ' this serum on
Pinal meningitis have proven that It is
tha only reliable treatment and have
demonstrated that It Is as equally efficient
for this disease aa anti-toxin Is for diph
theria. "For tbfs reason 1 believe there should
be some provision made by the state for
tha purchase of serum for tha Indigent
poor who are, In urgent need of the remedy.
We oan scarcely expect tha remedy to ar
rive In time If we have ' to telegraph to
New Tork for 1L Our experience with the
saaisut In Omaha has been that at the
present rata at whloh It la sold tha cost
' per patient will be from 2S to B76 for serum
Ion. Thia, you will see, will prevent the
poor, wbo should be entitled to aa much
oonalderaxlon by city and state as the
rloh for proper treatment and Immediate
action should be' taken so tha Uvea of the
poor can be saved In this dreaded disease
as wall aa tha rloh."

Rev. rr. Wheeler, pastor of the First
Presbyterian J church, writing to Jerry
Howard In answer to the resolution of tho
meeting asking him to go to Lincoln In
behalf of the minimum wage bill, save:
"The nigh prices of living In Nebraska
and with no prospects of diminution of
the saM necessary expenses to maintain
and support a family render It very. Im
perative that some means of support be
afforded the wage earner.
'The present session of the legislature
will do well to provide some means for
the relief of the common people, either by
the approval of this bill or by appropriate
legislation, for it Is quite evident that the
sentiment embodied under the great seal
of the state of Nebraska. -Equality before
the law,' - lacks considerable of practical
administration."
This letter was written by fr. Wheeler
In reply to a communication from a meet
ing held In the Interests ot the minimum
wage bill. He hsd been asked to go as
one of the deputation to Lincoln In sup
port of It. 1!H calls prevented Wm doing
this and In communicating thia fact he
expressed the views on this social question
as stated In the extracts from his letter.

evening tho scene of a highly enjoyable
musical affair, tha occasion being the sec
ond appearance in this olty of the Rlcoully
String quartet, lata ot Berlin, which made
its Omaha debut several weeks earlier In
the season. The program was entirely dif
ferent from the one played on the occasion
of their, first visit here, and brought out
quartets and detached movements by

While It Is clear that thea gentlemen
are all excellent performers on their re
spective instruments. It is none the le?
certain that they are able to resist tn
temptation to shine as Individuals thst
they are content to saorlflce personal glory
for the good of the common cause. The
common cause was, In this Instance, the
worthy presentation of the thoughts of the
masters as embodied In a number of their
contributions to the quartet literature.
Thia they certainly succeeded In doing and
showed, at the same time, much real and
unselfish devotion to their art; a devotion
which mad Itself continually manifest In
their clear and Intelligent phrasing, their
well preaerved balanoa, and In tho warmth
and enthusiasm with which they attacked
their varloua problems.
There was a refreshing variety In the
numbers performed on this program, . one
of the moat effective movements being
"Largo." from Smetana'a autobiographical
quartet. "From My Life." This la a move
ment of strong emotional content, 'and
call for power and great beauty of tone
in Its performance. It waa well played by
the gentlen.en of the Rically quartet, and
was the signal for an outbarst ot applause
from the audience. The "Mill Scene," In
the quartet by Raff, was likewise played
In a way to bring out Its brightness and
Infectious gayety, and the cloelng quartet
by Haydn, with ita variations on tha famil
iar theme of the Austrian hymn, also
made a etorroy appeal to the audieaca.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS SCORED

Senate Committee Find Construction
at Fault.
EfVISTIOATION 13 TO FOLLOW
Architect Berllaghof o.e la for
teasare, Tfcoesh Ills 5at la
Not Directly Mentioned, tor
Work at Norfolk.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. March IS. (Special Telegram.)
Further criticism of the state architect,
George A. Berllnghoff, Is contained In the
report of the senate committee on publlo
lends and buildings, sent In yesterday,
and It Is definitely stated that an Investiga
tion of his work will. follow immediately.
Berllnghoff's control over the construction
of the Norfolk asylum was liberally criti
cised by tho house committee on ssylums
when the members visited there, but the
blame was not so definitely placed aa It Is
by the senate committee.
The senators do not name Berllnghoff In
their report, but concluded with thl state
ment:
In view of the conditions as the com
mittee found them at the different state
institutions visited, w hav no critlcl.sm
to offer In connection with the manage
ment of any of these Institution except
the Boy' Industrial school at .Kearney;
hut we cannot find words strong enough
to express our Indignation In connection
with the architectural construction and
business management' In the construction
of the new buildings which were visited,
and lt la the unanimous opinion of the
ccmmlttee 'that there Is something rad
ically wrong and some steps should be
taken at once to place the blame w her it
properly belongs, as there has been a
frightful waste of public money, and this
legislature will not be doing its duty to the
people of the state If some investigation
Is not commenced at once to find out who
Is responsible for the disgraceful condi
tions that exist in connection with the new
buildings as found by the committee."
The report is signed by Reagan, chair
man; Placek, Kohl, Bartllng, Volpp, Ban
ning, McOrew, Tlbbets, Varner.
On describing the construction of the
new Norfolk buildings the committee says:
"Something Is radically wrong there, and
some of our state officials are either
guilty of great Incompetency or extreme
neglect." , ,. . r
On the Hastings hospital the verdict Is:
"It wa the unanimous Judgment of the
committee that It Is the poorest planned
public building that they ever saw con-'
structed for the purpose for which it waa
intended and for the money Invested."
The buildings of other institutions visited
are not so severely criticised, but the
school at Kearney Is pronounced to be
very badly managed, and abolishing It Is
suggested as a better plan than the present
condition.
The committee says:
"Ve found a most deplorable condition
existing in this Institution. Sanitary con
dition of all the buildings were Very, very
bad. The different department where the
boy were supposed to be working Were
very poorly equipped, and nobody seemed
to be gaining any advantage or training
whatever with the exception of about a
half a doxen boy who were lastly putting
In time while the committee waa looking
at them. It Is the Judgment of the com
mlttee that the school as It Is conducted
at present Is of no advantage or help to
the boys who are sent there. . The com
mlttee recommend that If condition can
not be Improved or remedied and the state
cannot get better results for the money
appropriated for this Institution, that fl
would be for the beet Interests of both the
boys sent there, and the state also, for the
school to be abolished and some other ar
rangements made for the training and edu
cation of the boys."
Limantour Starts
-Back to Mexico to
Resume His Office
Minister Leaves Statement, SnjinfJ He
is Returning to Take Up
Former Duties.
NEW YORK, March .16. Senor Joe Yves
Mmantour. Mexloo's minister of finance,
slipped quietly out of town this sfternoon.
apparently bound direct for Mexico City.
From what could be learned he has aban
doned his Idea of going home by way of
Florida and Havana, for he left New York
at 2 o'clock this afternoon over the Penn
sylvania railroad In his private car to 8t.
lyhUl!!. .- - , - .
Railroad officials said from St. Louis he
would go direct to Laredo, Tex., and then
to Mexico City by rail In a course to be
determined by conditions on the border.
It Is understood here that should Minis
ter Limantour ask for a military escort
through Texas his request will probably
be granted to the extent of guarding him
to the border between Texas and Mexico.
There were Indications here that Senor
Limantour was debating on Just what route
he should follow. He left a long type
written statement and the clerk at the
desk of the hotel said he hsd inquired par
ticularly about the sailings on or about
March 20 of all lines running between
Havana and Vera Cruz.
"There have been frequent and persistent
rumors.", his farewell statement read, in
part, "that I would not return to Mexico,
and that if 1 did it would not be to as
sume the duties of the offico I have tried
to fill acceptably for Rome years. It af
fords me pleasure , to say that I am re
turning .to Mexico, not only to assume
those duties, but also to do whatever may
be within my sphere of action to improve
the general conditions of my country."
