Miss Virginia Hiftir, assistant secretary
In th offle of tha Associated Charities,
died from heart failure during: the night
of Thursday, her lifeless body being- found
In her room In the Madison hotel, 2101 Chi
ts ro street, Friday morning;.
Miss Hagar. bd not been well for sev
eral dsys. Thursday she was feeling bet
ter and In the evening, accompanied by
Mr. Morris, who also resides at the Madi
son hotel, she went for a walk and street
csr ride. They returned about :30. Miss
Hagar retired and Ms. Baker, who occu
pied the adjoining room, helped her to
bed. fine also promised, to come to her
If she needed anything; -during the night.
Upon leaving- the room sha locked the door
and put the key underneath, where It
could be reached lther from the Inside or
outside. ,
The fact of tlia key '., being carefully
placed under the door , thought by
soma to be significant, but Miss Hagar'a
friends discountenance this Idea. They say
she placed the key there so that Mrs. Ba
ker might get Into the room during tha
remainder of the night should Miss Hagar's
condition call for further assistance.
Friday morning Mr. Morris knocked on
Miss Hags-fa door. Receiving no re
sponse, tha door wss unlocked and the
young wo.Ran found dead.
Miss Hagar was about -S3 years of age
and was a alster of Miss Emily Louise
Hagar, permanent secretary of the Asso
ciated Charities. Miss Kmlly attended the
national convention of charity workers In
Richmond, Vs., a month sgo and during
ber absenoa- Mis Virginia did the work In
the office. Miss Emily, was expected In
Omaha Friday from Topeka, Kan., where
she has been visiting enroute from Rich
mond 8. F. Morris, superintendent of the As
sociated Charities took the body last night
to Topeka, tha former, home of the Ac
cessed, where funeral services will be held
Sunday. ,.
AS TO THOSE SCHOOL LOTS
Board Member Sara. Wo flerea Thon
aaad Dollars Was Ever
' Paid to Two.
"If the writer of this anonymous letter
haa reference to the lands we bought for
the new Omaha View school, I will answer
that we bought what Is known as tha Dr.
J. C. Whlnnery site because it is promi
nent, not In a hole, and Is an . admirable
location for a large school building."
P. W. Kuhns, member of the Board of
Education committee on buildings and prop
erty, makes this reply to an anonymous
communication received by The Bee, ask
ing "Why did the school board pay 17,600
for two lota when you or anyone else could
have bought the same lots, or lots next to
them, at 1300 each?" .The writer, who lost
his nerve when it came time to sign his
letter, does not specify what lots, but Mem
ber Kuhns believes he has reference to
'the Whlnnery purchase, as that Is the only
piece of realty tha board has acquired re
cently. In reply to the Insinuating Inquiry, Mr.
Kuhns points' out that twelve lots and not
two were bought for 17,600, and that, while
possibly one or two Isolated lots can be
bought for Sjno. a higher price must be
paid when a large block is secured Intact.
The Whlnnery trsct fronts 250 feet on Bln
ney street snd K6 feet on Thirtieth street,
lies high, is improved and is thickly stud
ded with old trees. It Is the purpose of
the board to erect on' It a school building
costing from Ho.OiO to S?5,000, and, as Mr.
Kuhns says, "we would not think of put
ting a fine building like that in a hole."
When the matter of the purchase of the
lots was before the board, Members Kuhns,
McCsgue and Lindsay tried to get the
board to buy a tract nearly as large across
the street to the north of W. Farnam
Smith, the price bing $4,000. This property
is not Improved snd the board decided
that tha Whlnnery alte is much tha best,
and on the ground that nothing is too good
for Omaha's schools, - closed tha deal for
the lots. - .
