CAE ORDER FROM BOARD COMES TO OMAHA TO LEAR$ TO BE A NURSE. -.. From a Staff CorreiponiUnt.) Lincoln. Sept. 30. (Special.) Some of the occupants of the state superintendent's office were given a fright again this morning over the condition of the southeast corner of the capitol, which they are afraid may collapsn. It was reported that the walls had settled more Friday night, cracking the plate glass in one of the windows and throwing State En gineer Johnson's plumb line out an inch to the west. Investigation showed the window had been cracked for some time, but recent settling had made it more no ticeable. Little significance was at tached to the change in the plumb line by the stale engineer when it was learned that one of the supports had been removed and this was respon sible for the change...
