SCHOOL REPORTS
Health Commissioner Says the
Medical Inspection is Not
Bun to Suit Him.
BETTER AT PABOCHIALS
Feuding ( discussion of the medical
inspection question by the Board of
Education on Monday evening, Sep
tember 18, the ichool nurses are mak
ing cursory examinations of the chil
dren and expelling those who. show
signs of disease. The taking of cul
tures by the nurses has . not been
worked out
Assistant Superintendent Ryan
states she has received no reports
from these nurses beyond the infor
mation that' during the week one child
was sent home because of diphtheria
and another proved to have scarlet
fever:
. Chairman Woodland of the teach
ers' committee has a plan for engag
ing a regular physician, who will de
vote halt of his time superintending
the school medical work and Will
have charge of the nurses.
nesiui commissioner v.onneu uses
uncomplimentary language when the
subject ot public school medical ex
amination is brought up. He main
tains that the parochial schools are
being examined according to his
ideas, but he will not say as much for
the public schools.
When the situation was put up to
Dr. E. Holovtchiner, member of the
Board of Education, bis reply was, "I
have nothing to say on the subject."
The health commissioner contends
that his office should receive reports
of the work oi the school nurses.
Predicts an Advance in i
Nebraska Land Prices
"While there has been no pro
nounced advance in Nebraska land
prices for a long time, one is bound to
come in the near future,"asserts S. B.
Howard, emigrant agent for the Bur
lington. Continuing, Mr. Howard
said:
"Nebraska harvested the best small
grain crop in its history and the best
prices ever known are being paid for
livestock and all kinds of farm pro
ducts. This fact is bound to bring
about a sharp advance in land prices
this fall, or early next spring. I pre
dict that the Nebraska land now sell
ing at $40 and $50 per acre will jump
to 100 and S125 and land that fetch
ing $100, next spring will be selling
between fits ana iau per acre. .
Indian Tells the
Police His Body
Will Be in River
Chief of Police Dunn has received
the following letter which tells its
own story: . . -
"To the chief of police: If there is
anybody found in the river with the
right hand off just below the elbow,
it is me. I am tired of life and have
drowned myself. My name is John
sen Peioe, and I am a half-breed In
dian. My home is in Oklahoma, and
am known as the Indian Jew, as it
way my business to buy junk and
steal horses and anything else that I
could. I am a member of the Big
Four gang in the south. There was
myself, my brother, Kirk, White- Mos
urry and Slim. We held up the depot
at Baxter Springs, Kan., in 1909- Then
we came north. White and Slim
left us. Then my brother and myself
played the junk act. In 1911 we held
up the bridge tender and got $17. In
1912 we stole a load of sugar in the
Bluffs, where Slim worked. Sold the
sugar to a guy for $200. My brother
and I held up a hotel in fairtield, la.,
but done a bad job. Leaving there,
my brother was killed by the. cars.
I buried him unbeknowns to anyone.
I. never killed anyone, but my brother
shot the depot man at Baxter Springs.
Peioe's body has not been reported
as having been found in the river.

Mechanical Device for

A mechanical carrying device is
soon to be put into operation at the
