Only the tolerance of President K. H. Leigh saved the Pi-oposcd civil service rule for the school Janitors last night when Rudolph Yechout, democrat, In sisted upon changing the drafted copy so that the Janitor would have to serve two or even three years before becoming eligible to the permanent list. President Leigh In the rough draft hnd named the probationary tlmo as six months. A tentative motion allowing the draft , to be introduced subject to amendment wan finally ntrrccd upon after Member F. S. Jllchanlson bluntly told Yrchout that with tho bet lobs In l emocmtlp j hands he felt that tho republicans should have a. little say on the board The whom ho accused of discriminating against Conigan nnd Hrown 1'nrk schools board agreed to Yecliout's amendment raising the Janitor's salary a month. Yechout, previous to bringing up tho rules for permanent Janitors, drew the fire of Superintendent N". M. Graham, Tho superintendent Indignantly denied the charges and appeared to have the support of the board's majority In his denials. For some time past the board has hern heckled by a scries of demands and fault findings on the part of certain politicians not members of thn board. The republi can majority has been tolerant of the demands made and In many Instances has gone to extremes to please the re calcitrant elements, utterly President Leigh and the republlcnn members have begun to realize that a great deal of the trouble can be eradicated only by en forcing the laws against politics among the school employes. It Is said that Superintendent Graham's attempt to run the school free from petty politics has merited the bitter opposition of those so falling. It Is certain that the serious work of the school board Is being ham pered by the petty differences. Auto nandlt Here. South Omaha now has an automobile a,.. In Tomorrow's Papers We will publish the simple rules of the "Omaha Thrift Club" In setting aside part of our profits for the development of Thrift in this community we feel that we are using it for a worthy purpose. Anything that helps people help themselves is Good. None of us are objects of charity few of us expect to become rich by inheritance or by a sudden stroke of fortune. There is not a successful busi ness nor an independent fortune in Omaha that did not have its begin ing with a Thrifty person. Somewhere, sometime, someone began to save, and the first step in fortune-building was taken. See tomorrow's paper for the rules. Omaha National Bank Seventeenth and Farnam Sts. Savings Dept., Street Floor biimll Three times, according to tho police, has the auto bandit miulo his np pearnnco within as many weeks In South Omaha, list night shortly after dark Mrs. M. rarmegan of Twenty-second and D streets was attacked by the bandit near Twenty-fourth and O streets The thief approached In an nuto and. after Jumping out, attempted to wrest a purse from thn hands of Mrs. Carmegan. Mrs. Carmegan. however, is not helpless and she battled with tho robher successfully lie escaped in the machine. A faw days ago Miss Mabel Melcher, a daughter ot t'hrls Melcher, the well known druggist, was rrbbed of her purse by an auto tmudlt. A few weeks before, the police sny, the auto robber)' was tried also. Tho police department last night received strict orders to be on the watch for sus picious autolsts. A good description of the bandit was obtained from Mrs. Car megan. Itemer Is lloliliril. Mlk itemer of 2301 Q street as robbed of half a dozen brace of mallard ducks yesterday ovenlng while his WRgon stood at Thirty-ninth and Q streets. The rob bery was reported to Officer John Jnck imm, who at onco took up the trull and has already obtained several clues. In vestigation by Jackman, who works by the Inductive method, developed that the 1 theft of the ducks was a constructive ' theft only. It appears that Iteinrr left ; n new hainiuerlcss rifle In his wagon i while en route to the hunting grounds j west r the city. While momentarily ab I sent the gun was stolen. Jackman charges j that tho theft of the gun resulted In ii constructive theft of tho six brace of j ducks which llemur would have shot had i his gun not been stolen. If the robber lis found ho will probably he charged with 1 an additional accusation of robbing Jack i man who might have gotten ono pair of I the durks which Ilemer might have shot had his gun not been stolmi.
