Best, of tho New York Board of Retirement, is a hazard ous occupation, taking rank in mortality with that of the soldier, police man and fireman. Mr. Best, in his annual report Ju&t out, seeks to correct the idea that because teachers have short hours and long vacations their work Is easy. He says: "Thirty-nine per oent of the teachers, who 'have been retired In the last six years were suffering from nervous break downs, while a considerable number had heart disease. 'Some years ago, when the agitation for teachers' annuities waa Just begin ning, it was difficult to convince legis lators and school board members that our cause had merit. We were told that It was all very well to establish pensions, annuities for soldiers, policemen and firemen, because tholr occupation were extra-hazardous, and they often gave up their lives for the community which they saved; but as for the teaohera, their work was easy, thslr hours short, their vacations long and they made no sac rifices. 'Gradually this has all been ' changed as the great work of the teachers be came more full' recognized, as the sac rifices In nervous and physical energy made by the teachers In their most arduous work for tho youth of our land became more frilly understood. Germany was one of the first countries to recog nize officially that teachers, of all public officers, were deserving of the highest consideration, as they were the most likely to sacrifice their health in the dle ehsrge of their duties. Many observing educators have called attention to the relatively large number of physical wrecks furnished by the teaching pro fession." Children coming to school from homes where contagious diseases are housed, and. unsanitary school rooms. Mr. Best says, are responsible for much of the danger to which a teacher is subject. Of the 1,492 teachers retired to Feb ruary 1, mi. 315 have died, Mr. Beat says, about 45 per cent of the men and 19 per cent of the women. An enumera tion of the causes of death would In dicate most graphically, he believes, the hasards of the teacher's profession. "Can any other occupation," he con cludes, ' show less than 84 per cent of deaths from old age? Is any other oc cupation more hazardous?" BRITISH EDICAT10.

Peprefentant e business men of South "miaha yesterday volunteered their serv ices to the tnevor and city officials as a compact ortanuatlon to defeat the Dgttated merger plan of Omaha and South Omaha These men assert that annexation at this time, when Omaha is about to trv a new experiment in the form of government would be linpi udei't ind a rl?k- proposition on the part of .he lea' miin-olpall'v. I'rvteMing further tha' the cftdrtri of Omaha nrke no adequate provision cr the additional expense Incident to maintenance of a greater Omaha, they assert that the lo cal police and firs departments world be annulled until the merged cities could bv proper legislation provide for an In creased roster In both branches of the public sertlre l,.ii real estate holder of this 'section Insist that annexation would depreciate the value of local prop erty to a negligible quantity that would make the southern section of the pro posed greater Omaha a drearv waste or a dumping ground for the submerged tenth of Omaha. Mayor Aaalnet Merarev. The mavor acting In eonlunetlon with the business men and cltv officials yes terdav declared formally against the merger. He stated that neither the Com mercial cluh rnr the Real Eetate ex change of Omaha Is veiv anxious for a merger at this period The Ad club, It Is said, vigorously denied any co-operation with the local committee of an- nexatlonlfts, the result of all conferences to date beirg that Omaha would require a petition of 2.600 or 2.700 names of those In South Omaha anxious for the merger before any further co-operation was shown by the uptown clubs. Councilman Jack Walters of I'nlon stork t arris said he was against ant merger that would amount to a promis sory note on the part of Omaha. "When Omaha and the annexationists can show me In black and white a binding agree ment, good in law, that we will have the proper representation In the counsels of the greater city, then I will vote for annexation." said Mr. Walters. "I am here twenty-five years and I have my home here. I can not now stand to see this section of the city made a moral dumping ground for our uptown neigh bors. When Omaha offers terms that will make us partners to a pact and not beneficiaries of its arbitrary will, then I am for annexation and not before." Committee Is Named. Mayor Tralnor after having considered plans for conducting an anti-merger campaign made a public statement of the platform on which the opposition to the merger was baaed. He also ap pointed the following business men to act as an executive committee for the eon duct of the campaign: Joe Pavllk. paint and paper dealer; Joe PI pal, hardware dealer; P. J.

Negro Falls to Death.

His nec k waa broken and his skull fractured. Smith had been employed In the fer tilizing department at Armour's packing plant. The body was taken by Deputy Coroner Bernard Larkln. Bondholders net Bnsv, New Tork attorneys acting In the In terests of certain clients who claim that city bonds held by them were repudiated by South Omsha yesterday communi cated with Attorney Dean RJnger, who will act as the local representative of the New Tork law firm In Investigating the matter. The New Tork people who hold the al leged spurious bonds want to know spe cifically why South Omaha has refused to honor the bonds held by them. If the certificates held bv them and the ones In the office of the city treasurer are similar then the question will be to de termine who holds the counterfeits. It was said that unless the city would mske a settlement New York attorneys would start suit against the city. The matter is working out In the way In which the council and city attorney indicated at the time when the matter was discussed. At that time the local officials notified Kountze Brothers, fiscal agents at New Tork. that the city had already paid the $7.3iO amounting to the principal and Interest of the bonds In question. The bonds or similar ones are In the effloe of the city treasurer end are signed br the then mayor nnd city clerk. The city officials determined that if the bonds had already been paid by the city It remained for the New Tork holders of the doubtful issue to tske the initiative and show how they obtained the paper. Hog buyers at the local market find that with a per cent crop Increase over the corresponding months of last year, hogs are lighter In weight from 10 to 20 per cent and selling at S cents with the probabilities that the price will go lower by February. The old crop la cleaned up and It Is generally admitted among the buyers that the new cro.i will be a 30 per oent In crease for the season of 1211-12 over the setaon of 1610-11 to date. Owing to the dry weather and bare pastures of the last season the new crop will not make the growth expected of them and the October, November and December hogs will be 10 to 20 per cent lighter than In the corresponding season a year ago. With corn going higher, an early mar keting of those animals may be expected for the rearon that raisers will not care to fead high price corn to 6-cent hogs The trade, . therefore. Is figuring tint hos will sell In the local market down to p rent between now and December IS with a still Inner decline by Feb ruary, 1S12 Watch Effect of strike. Stockers and feeder of cattle and sheep In the local market were very nervous yesterday over the strike an nounced on the Harrlman lines. The last week has been a record breaking ttek tor the number of cattle re rived. It was said that over son cars were received at the local market on on day of last week. This consignment was ail cleaned up yesterday, but the oommlaaloo men are expecting even a greater shipment for the coming week.
