TO DE SUPERINTENDENT OF PUU-
LIC INSTRUCTION.
APPOINTMENT FROM DURKETT
The Superintendent of the Norfolk
Schools Will Organize Syntem of
Public Schools In the Canal Zone.
Loaves In About Two Weeks.
Superintendent D. C. O'Connor of
this pity linn boon appointed to tliu
position of superintendent of public
instruction of the I'mmiim zone. Tim
appointment caino through the offortH
of Senator llurkoit. unitvaii an
nounced by PicHldont Iloomivolt on
Saturday. Mr. O'Connor will leave to
nsmimo tbo duties of hlH now ollleoas
noon as ii successor cnn bo selected to
taUo charge of Ibo Norfolk sehoohi.
Ho hopes to got away about Ibo ! ! Rtli
of tbo mouth , which will allow him to
mill from Now York on December 1.
ThlH political plum falls Into the
ImndH of Superintendent O'Connor by
reason of an early friendship formed
between himself and Senator Uiirkult.
ThlH wan at a llmo when Suporlnton-
ilont O'Connor WI\H toachlni ; at Wont
I'olut and Senator Rtirkott was at tbo
head of tbo schools at Lolgh. Later
Mr. Biirkclt went to Lincoln where
lie bewail a successful career which
led to the noun to chamber. While Mr.
O'Connor linn alwaya bocn a ropub-
llcan , bo ban never taken an active
part in polltlcii , and has never np-
ixmrod before the public In that ca
pacity , although ho WHH urged by ttomo
of his frloudH to become candidate for
state Huporlutonilont about two yearn
ngo , but declined to allow the UBO of
hla name. Hence the appointment
may bo fairly Raid to have ltn founda
tion In the early friendship between
lilmsolf and the senator , fortlllcd by
the fact that Mr. O'Connor haH been
Krowlni ; In prominence In Htato educa
tional circles very rapidly ihirlni ; the
past few years. When the appoint
ment wan placed at the disposal of
Senator Hurkett bo saw In O'Connor a
man thoroughly up to dale In educa
tional iimlton ) , one with uiuiauiil ox-
ocutlvo nblllty , and he offered him the
place.
Thin offer came a weoU ago Satur
day. Mr. O'Connor was In Lincoln at
tending the School Master's asaoela-
tlon , and Mr. Hurkett Kent for him and
tendered him tbo place.lr. ] \ . O'Connor
agreed to accept , provided tbo Hchool
board hero would lelcano him on his
contract.
AH bead of tbo public scboolH of 1'an-
ainn , hlB duties at the start will cblolly
bo the organization of a HVHtom. At ,
the present time the schouls of tbo
canal 70110 are In a nbaotlu condition ,
there being practically no system.
The population of tbo canal /one for
which a school system Is now being
established , consists of about 10,000
laborers , and many of them bavo their i
families there. The town of 1'nnnrim1
has about 85,000 people and Colon
0,000. It Is presumed that these two
towns are to bo Included In the ys-1
torn , but of this Mr. O'Connor Is not
Biiro. Ho will undertake to organl/o i
a system of schools modeled on those
In tbo United States , except that be
will also employ the teachers and pass
upon their ( inallllcatlons. It will bo
heavy work , but ho has an abundance
of executive nblllty to bring to boar
upon It.
The position carries with It a salary
of ja.ROO. He Is leaving n salary of
$1,500 In Norfolk. Tbo salary of tbo
new place , then , Is not the attraction
that Induces him to accept the place.
But the opportunity that is opened by
the place will unquestionably lead to
something better In the near future If
lie makes good , and his friends bavo
no fear but that be will do that. Ills
headquarters will be at Panama ,
where are the headquarters of nil the
canal 70110 ctHcors
Mr. O'Connor came here from West
Point nearly nine years ago and has
been at Ibe head of tbo Norfolk
schools since. That his woik has been
satisfactory hero Is evidenced by tbo
fact that the board of education has
mndo three year contracts with him
at a time. lie Is prominent in tbo
state as an educator , having held a
number of Important positions in edu
cational circles. Last year ho was
president of the School Masters cluli I
of Nebraska , a position bold this year |
by Chancellor Andrews of the Nebras
ka university. This Is a club composed - ,
posed of fifty members of the leading' '
educators of tbo state , which It i
I
j > nly requires one black ball to prevent
a person from joining. Ho was n j
member of the executive committee of i i
the State teachers association for
three years and Its secretary two
years , a member of the state examin
ing board under two administrations ,
those of H. R. Corbett and W. K. Fowler
ler , which board Issues life certificates.
He has been president of the North
Nebraska teachers association , an or
ganization including practically all the
teachers In the northern part of the
state.
Mr. O'Connor's family will remain
In Norfolk indefinitely. He owns his
own home at the corner of Norfolk av
enue and Thirteenth street. On his
way east ho will stop to visit his chil
dren , Florence , who Is attending school
at Grove City , Pa. , and Walker , at
Mcadvillo , Pa.
The , school board will hold a meet
ing this afternoon to consider his res
ignation. Already a number of names
have been suggested as his successor ,
among them being Supt. Dodwell , coun
ty superintendent of Douglas county , J

KENSINGTON GIRL'S ALBUM RE
CORDS THE IMPRESSIONS.

"It Is Marvelous What Character IB
Shown In Kisses , " She Declares
"and the Kiss Prints Look Like
Kisses" Quotations Needed.
London , Nov. H. A clover younj ,
Kensington woman , Miss Evans , ha
deviled a new kind of autograph al
bum that Is likely to bo popular. I
Is so contrived as to enable a youn
woman not only to collect the auto
graph signatures of her friends , but t
proburve also the Imprints of thel
kisses.
This book is equipped with a llttl
pad of soluble , carmine-tinted sub
stances upon which the lips are ilrs
lightly pressed , so as to take up
little of tbo pigment. Then a kiss 1
imprinted upon the page in n spac
provided for the purpose , leaving
clear carmine record of the pressur
of the lips. By the side of the kiss In
print is another for the autograph an
date , and together , kiss and slguatur
make a very precious and Intlinat
keepsake.
"It Is really marvelous what u lo
of character there Is in klssos , " say
Miss Evans. "People who are not sti
dents of the subject simply have n
Idea how they vary. You know no two
persons' linger prints nro alike. Well ,
no two persons' kisses are the tiniest

there is not one of them that you

This kiss album bears on the title

which will load to the second floor.
In the second story of the building n
dozen beds will be placed for the ac

venting a cold after the hot baking
The bath rooms are equipped with
steam pipes by which the temperature
Is maintained at a point nbovo 120
degrees at all times. A marble slab
has been put In for the massage pro
cess afterward , nnd the whole thing is
nicely complete. It Is an Improvement
which Norfolk has been wanting for n
long tlmo.
How to Cure Corns and Bunions.
First , soak the corn or bunion In
warm water to soften It ; then pare It
down as closely as possible without
drawing blood nnd apply Chamber
lain's Pain Balm twice dally , rubbing
vigorously for five minutes nt each ap
plication. A corn plaster should be
worn a few days to protect It from
the shoo. As a general liniment for

THE DEFAULTING HOLT COUNTY
BANKER IS RE-ARRESTED.
ENJOYED FREEDOM ALL SUMMER
Was About to Leave the City When He
Was Taken In Charge by Sheriff
Hall on Complaint of Mary Golden ,
a Lady Over Eighty , a Depositor.
O'Neill , Nob. , Nov. 14. Special to
The News : After enjoying the free
dom of the streets of O'Neill all sum
mer , Bernard McGreovy , former pres
ident of the deiunct Elkhorn Valley
bank , city and school treasurer , Is
again behind the bars of the Holt
county jail.
Ho was arrested by Sheriff Hall on
complaint of Mary Golden , nn old lady
in the eighties , and James Coyle , de
positors of the defunct bank , tbo com
plainants charging the former bank
president with accepting bank depos
its for an insolvent bank.
Ono of the depositors says he had
intended to have McGreovy rearrest-
ed tbo fore part of last week but was
refused n complaint by the county at
torney , but that the county attorney
on Saturday told him that McGreovy
was getting ready to leave town and
wanted him ( the depositor ) to swear
out a complaint at once.
The personal appearance of Mc
Greovy has Improved much since his
release from confinement a few
months ago. Ho has spent the sum
mer leisurely among his old associ
ates nnd looks well.
The depositors are hoping that some
disposition will be made of the cases
against McGreovy nt the next term of

cember.
BURT SAYS NOTHING.
Considerable Speculation as to What
He Will Do In the Future.
Omaha. Nov. 11. II. G. Burt. for
mer president of the Union Pacific ,
with Mrs. Burt , is still at the Her
Grand In Omaha , where ho has been
stopping since arriving in that city
last week. Mr. Burt has spent most
of his time since his arrival In looking
over the shops of the Union Pacific ,
which W. II. McKean , superintendent
of motive power nnd machinery and
in Inspecting the roadbed which ho
was so Instrumental in putting in its
present splendid condition.
Mr. Burt says he is not prepared to
announce any of his plans nnd does
not know how long he will remain in
Omaha. Many berths have been sug
gested for him since his return to this
country from his two years' trip
around the world , ono of the most ex
tensive trips over taken by an Omaha
traveler , but none of these can bo
verified. Mr. Burt answers no ques
tions and offers no information.
IN THE NORTH PLATTE VALLEY
Union Pacific Determined to Build a
Competing Line.
North Platte Tribune : Quito a num
ber of people have been Inclined to
think that the proposed Union Pacific
line up the North Platte valley would
prove nothing more than a "bluff" on
the part of that company , but Charles
P. Ross , who has practically had
charge of the preliminary engineering
work , assures us that the contract for
grading 115 miles of the road has been
let , and that there Is no question but
that the road will bo constructed. Sev
en Union Pacific surveying parties
nro now at work In the valley , cross-
sectioning the work nnd dividing it
Into stations , nnd that 200 men and
I teams are engaged In grade work in
the valley. Mr. Ross feels equally
confident that the Burlington will also
build Ho does not think that grading
work will' bo attempted after cold
weather sots In , nnd that not much of
the work can bo accomplished until
next spring.
A number of cars of grading equip
ment hnvo passed west through this
elty. Hotn these
outfits will work on
the U. P. lino. H Is now practically
settled that the new road will parallel
tno main line from this city to O'Fnl-
Ion , thus giving the advantage of a
double track between these two points.
The Burlington docs not seem to bo
pushing the grade work as rapidly as ,
is the Union Pacific. That road nt- t
'tempted ' to head off the Union Pacific f
nt tbo Otter creek bluff , and had sta-
t
| I tinned n surveying corps at that point ,
but later the Burlington found that the
Union Pacific had already secured a ,
right-of-way around the bluff , nnd the
licndlng-off attempt was abandoned.
