uniaha dcKt.
It can lx said that no scumUl tins ever
attached to the quarter matter s dejt at
Omaha, although the Omaha aepvl is one
tpf the largest disti ll. jung army iii pels in
the country. A vast unmunt of miscel
laneous army supplies is k pt here fur dis
tribution to the various military pons,
not aione of the Department of the Mis
souri, but other western 6 pnrtnients. The
convenience and aci eSKll.illty of the Omaha
orpot as a shipping point has long been
l ecognlxed and millions of dollars wort a
of army foods have been assembled here
and distributed In years past and continue
lo be down to the present.
Very few supplies pertaining1 particulgrly
to the quartermaster's department of the
army are bought here at Omaha. Most
of the suppllea. such as general quarter
master s stores, camp and garrison enul
page end clothing, are nousbt elsewhere
and are sent here for distribution The
only exception Is la the matter of mis
cellaneous repair supplies, which are largely
bought In the Omaha markets.
An official long connected with the
Omaha depot aatd:
'There aas never been any serious com
plaint of army equipments that have been
shipped from Omaha to the various posts
it may occasionally occur that there wl!l
be a d active pair ef shoes or a damaged
piece of clothing sent back from the Is
suing peat or command, and la suca aa
event the defective piece of property 1
at once sent to Washington and traced
to Its original contractor and the defi
ciency j.uide good. The stores assembled
at th.s ilupot are always moving and
few are kept here for any length of time.
The depot always has been in charge of
an officer of the army who Is always re
quired to be on the alert fur suppllns fail
ing to come up to the required standard.
In the ntturaj order of things It would
be impossible for any Irregularities In
contracts to occur at the Omaha depot, as
It is not a purchasing depot, being simply
a storage and supply depot."

CATHOLIC SCHOOLS DRAW
Farochit.1 Inititntiom Tike Many Pupil"
from Pielio Schools.
LATTER SHOW DECREASED ATTENDANCE
Superintendent Usildioi Caw Assign
No Other Reason, la View of
Coaataat Growth Omaha
Is Making.
In the opinion of Superintendent David
son Increased attendance at the Catholic
parochial schools is at least partly re
sponsible for decreased enrollment in the
public schools.
The first week of the public schools this
fall shows the enrollment to be IM less
than the first week lust ear, the totals
being H.MT against 15.:i&. For the year
of lHy4-t& the total enrollment in the public
schools was but U K5o. against 19.1'; In
1SU3-M. lSt.llT; in 19CI-U3, lH.Tt.4. in 1S1 -UU. 1P.3M
in lstm-01 and in UniHSwu. All this
tiuie the p&rochiaj schools have b-eiu grow
ing and more than absorbing the defici
encies. Last year a nem school for the
lower grades and an academy for girls
was opened in the Sacred Heart parish at
Twenty-third end Hmney street wi'h
large attendances The other Catholic
schools have been fi.rg.ng ahead, under
the constant urging of obedience to the
orders of the Baltimore council of VM.
So rkarare to Poor.
Besides Increasing the number of par
ochial schools, and equipping all thein with
additional facilities, most parishes suspend
the charges to poor parents and some have
a rule making payment for two chlldrei
the maximum from any single family.
"There can be no question but that
Omaha la having a substantial growth
from year to year," says Superintendent
Davidson. The number of new dwellings
constantly built and the tenanted condi
tions of almost every house and flat proves
this. Then we have report coming In from
various schools showing new enrollments as
high aa fifty la a single buUdug of chil
dren who have been brought to this city
within the last yar.
"The inroads made by the Catholic schools
is the only way to account for the de
crease. The first week this fail has been
made up principally of rainy days, and
this will account for part of the poor show
ing the first week, but I doubt if It would
cover all of it. Some of the decreases at
certain schools are due to tiansf erring
pupils to new buildings or to houses where
additional facilities in the way of room
have been provided."
Losses by Schools.
Casa school shows a loss of 21 the first
week under the same period a year ago;
Castellar. 85; Clifton Hill, 60: Comenlus, 60;

"In the Eighth ward I find that Council
