Gas Fumes Fill the
Court During Trial
When two spectators In Judge Sut
ton's court room In the court house were
almost .overcome by illuminating gas
fumes Wednesday afternoon. It became
apparent that a gas pipe was leaking
and a force of gas repair men set about
locating and repairing the leaking pipe.
The spectators were deeply interested In
arguments In the (20,000 damage suit of
Mrs. Fannie WeUel against the Omaha
General hospital for the death of her hus
band, Alva P. Wetzel, and did not realize
they were being affected by the fumes
until they almost keeled over.
All this week the fumes have made
work In the court house extremely un
pleasant, but as they were strongest In
that section of the building which Is near
est to the new county building It was
thought the wind carried them from the
new structure, where gas connections are
being made.
While the court house was almost de
serted Thursday. It being Columbus day,
the repair men completed their work.

Just recovering from the disappointing
effort of last week agalnt Western Union.
Coach Miller now has the boys work
ing double drill and whatever foot ball
lies dormant tn these men he Is de
termined to bring out. The bucking
machine has been brought out and no

fixture in the game against TanWtou,
6. D., at thst place Saturday. A new
man has appeared on the scene Moor

end position, is a fast man and showing
up favorably.

-they face Yankton Saturday and they
are determined to redeem themselves at

The Water board has let the contract
to the Kats Construction company for

J. W. Cr, pel and oi uayion. o.. purchases
a bottle of Chamberla'n's Cough Remedy
for his boy who had a cold, and before
the bottle was all used the boy's cold was
gone. Is that not better thaa to pay
a doctor's bill For sale by ail dealers.
Mrs. Ella, Flags; Young, who reigns over
a kingdom of .ftft(t boys and girls as
tuperlntendent of the Chicago public
rchools, and Rev. Albert J. Fteelman of
Seattle, superintendent for Washington
of the Society for the Friendless, arrived
in Omaha Thursday, the first delegate to
iome for the National Prison congress,
which begins Saturday evening.
Mra Young, who lost year was ap
pointed aa delegate to the International
Prison congress, comes to the Omaha
meeting representing the state of Illinois,
having an appointment from Governor
Deneen. She arrived early, tntending to
spend two days tn visiting the Omaha
schools. Heavy mall prevented ber doing
so today, but aha experts to study soma
features of local school work Friday, par
ticularly domestic selerfoe tn the high
school and manual training In some of
the grade schools. ,
"I am a strong believer in manual
training and domestic science." said Mrs.
Young. "I believe tn giving the boys and
girls a chance to find out what they are
fitted for. It may lead boys Into techni
cal schools and success, who, without
manual training, would not have known
that they had a faculty for work In the
given line."
In addition to the usual manual work
carpentry is taught for three months a
year In the Chicago schools, says Mrs.
Young. She Is about to Introduce print
ing and wants to aM a third trade for
three month a year that a corps of com
petent Instructors tn technical subjects
may be kept busy the year round.
Printers t"nln Objects.
. "The printers' union has objected to the
introduction of printing In the public
schools on the ground that It would tend
to make the supply of printers greater
than the demand. 1 was astounded when
I heard their objection, but since I have
been thinking It over, there seems a
great deal to it. When I go back home
I am going to ssk the printers to work
with us, as the carpenters are now doing.
"Union carpenters of Chicago send
their apprentices to school for the three
months and pay them regular wages
during the period. The boys get the
theory of their trade and additional help
ful knowledge that they would never get
In a carpenter shop. Now, If the printers
will agree to send their own apprentices
to school under the same conditions they
can still exercise control over the supply
of printers.
Mrs. Young says the school teachers
can get pointers on handling children
from the sessions of the prison congress.
"The viewpoint of the reformer, as ex
pressed at the congress," said Mrs.
Young 'Is that he must acquaint himself
with the character of the Individual
child and work from that basis. The
teacher business too often is merely
to teach that five times six are thirty.
Of course, there Is an excuse for the
teacher. Teachers are too few In com
parison with the number of pupils for
them to give much study to the individ
ual child. In the average school the
teacher would have about five minutes
a day to devote to each child. If she
spent her time studying Individual char-.
acter and- teaching the individual."
