CRISIS IN HEALTH OFFICE Depleted Pnnda Necessitate Discharge of Every Sanitary Inspector of the City. There Is a crisis In the affairs of the Board of Health of Omaha and unless taxpayers come to the relief of the city there may be a general suspension of work. Friday morning Dr. Connell, health commissioner, made some calculations and as a result every sanitary Inspector will be dismissed Saturday and the veterinarian and meat inspector face enforced vacation for the last two months of the year. The balance In the hands of the treas urer for the use of the health department, July 1, will be 84.5S2, and of this amount about 81G0 will be Immediately expended for drugs and hospital work already or dered. After a reduction In salaries of 880 a month has beon made by the dis charge of the Inspectors there will remain A fixed charge on the office of 85.230 for the balance of the year, showing a deficit on the face of the account of 86& for the year and this does not Include sny expend iture for drugs or hospital attendance, ex penses which certainly will come upon the office. This estlmste Is based on the expendi ture of 80 per cent of the tax levy for the year and the only hope of preventing a deficit Is through a larger collection of taxes, which will swell the funds beyond the legal amount In sight.

The validity of charging a fee of 60 cents for continuances by the county Judge has been raised In the Vlnsonhaler case before Judge Bears. From the earliest history of the county these fees have been charged every time a case was con tlnued from month to month. In Judge Vlnsonhaler's suit they amount to 700 of the 113,000 charged up against him. The question has been raised as to whether or not Judge Vlnsonhaler had a legal light to charge these fees. If he did not ths county can have no claim against him for them and he would be released from liability to the amount of 1700. The ques tion will be argued when the hearing of the case begins again July 1. Practical Folding Go-Cart. New.
