JANITORS TO BE POLICEMEN
Sokeme Advocated by Member Lindsay
of the Board of School
Directors.
Jame C. Lindsay, member of the Board
o Education, advocates the plan of con
ferring limited police power on janitors
Of the public school. He ha presented
hi plan to Mayor DaUlman. who alao fa
vors it, and will present it to the board
some of whose member oppose It, Monday
night.
"My Idea is that by such a plan wa may
prevent defacement of the school building
and theft." laid Mr. Lindsay. "It strikes
me the city would be the gainer in the
long run. Often in mischief. If not in
malice, youngsters deface school buildings
and cause loss and damage to valuable
property. This could be prevented,
think, if each janitor was vested with po
lice powers to a limited degree. I rather
believe the restraining influence would be
all that was neceseary after the fact be
came publicly known."
"I am favorably Inclined to Mr. Lind
ay plan, said the mayor. "It seems to
be backed by common ene and sound
Judgment."

to Pay for It.
Frank Kohanowckl was, in all proba
bility, fatally wounded yesterday after
noon by Mike Panjevleh. after a quarrel
ever the price of a drink. Kohanowskl I
at- the South Omaha hospital at the point
of death. He has three stab wounds, one
In the breast, one at the right side and
one In the left aide. Any one of the
wound Is serious, but the one at the tight
1de and low In the abdomen most likely
will be fatal. It Is a very deep and ragged
wound. The Intestine were cut In sev
eral places. In such cases the patient
usually live two or three day. Koha
nowskl I conclou and quite easy. The
hospital authorities hold out no hope. He
Is under the care of Dr. E. L. Delanney.
The stabbing occurred at 2:3ft p. m. at Vin
cent Czerwlnskl's saloon at Twenty-seventh
and Q streets. Kohanowskl Is a barttnder.
While serving behind the bar Partjevich
came In and demanded a drink. He waa
refused. It Is said, because he did not
offer to pay for the liquor. So far a
known thla was the only word said. Then,
watching his chance to find th bartender
with his back turned. Panjavlch reached
over th bar and Jerked hi victim back
ward till he lay on the bar face tip and
helpless. Then he plunged the knife three
times into hi body and ran out. The
w-ounded man slipped off the bar and fell
behind It on the floor. The knife used ws
an ordinary Jackknlf with a three-Inch
blade. Panjevich threw It away and It
was found. John Husac, a laborer, was
the only witness, so far as 1 now known
Kohanowskl lived at 2130 O street.
Panjevich ran west on Q street and was
last seen ner Twenty-eighth and Q. He
has not yet been apprehended.
Ankle Broke a la Fall.
John Tanganey, a roomer In the Plvonka
block, fell and broke his leg Just above the
ankle yesterday at f p. m. He wa walk
lng on the sidewalk In front of Shcehan
McDonough's saloon on N street when he
lipped on some Ice and fell. He waa a
slsted to his room In the Plvonka block,
but was later removed to the Bouth Omaha
hospital. There the fracture was reduced
by the city physician.
Heaort of Chief Garratt.
Chief Garratt made his annual report
yesterday for the year of 1907. The report
shows that the total number of fire alarms
wa 1H2, of which eighteen were false
alarms. The greater per cent of the fire
occurred in frame building. The valuation
of the property In which fire occurred wa
$392,446. The Insurance on this property
amounted to $19I,15. The Insurance paid
amounted to $.l.311. The total losa to prop
erty by fire wa TA4o6. The net loss wa.
therefore. $26,146. This Is considered a good
showing for the year. The department
worked as effectively as they could with ,
the limited apparatus.
In this connection the report of the Na
tional Board of Fir Underwriter of Amer
ica ha issued a December report on the
fire hazards of South Omaha which 1 In
teresting, In that it declares that the de
partment ha an abl chief, but In every
other particular declare that the depart
mept Is exceedingly poor. The water sup
ply, the report points out, is In msny ways
defective. It also adds that little remedy is
to be expected until the present litigation
In Omaha ceases. The fact that the brick
and frame buildings are so Interspersed 1
anothere ource of weakness. The only re
deeming feature Is that th frame building
In the business district are only one story
high, or possibly two. The report recom
mends many things which would be inter
esting for the Board of Fire and Police
commissioners and for the city trr lobk into.
Among them is that Company No. 1 should
be an engine company; that a strong hook
and ladder company be formed; that a
mall sised combination ladder truck be
purchased. A hose company should be sta
tioned at Twenty-sixth and E streets. The
headquarters should have not less than nine
men on duty and the stations six. This
would simply break the city fund under the
present charter provisions.
Cases of Extreme Poverty.
Two cases of extreme poverty were
brought to the notice of th police yester
day. One was that of Mrs. Herman at
226 South Twenty-flfth street. There are
four children in the house, which is in a
filthy condition. The children have no
shoes. A little coal was found In the
house, but nothing In the way of food.
The county charity officer re looking
into the case.
The second wa that of Mrs. Brown. 330
North Twenty-sixth etreet. Two children
re In thl family. There wa not a morsel
of food in the house nor any fire yeterday
morning. The county authorities asked the
police to Investigate and report with reeom
mendatlona. Both cases will be cared for.
Teachers to Meet Here.

very pleasant experience at the State
Teachers' association. He also announce
that the April meeting of the East Central
Nebraska association, comprising about
l.(M) delegates, will be held in South
