Morrison, city health officer, has received a letter from the state board of health advising him of action taken by that body at its meeting Jan. 9, 1906 recommending that persons suf- fering with tuberculosis be not employed as teachers in the schools. Dr., Morrison states that he will enforce the recom- mendation. The letter follows: St. Paul, Feb. 14, 1906. Dear Doctor:— The State Board of Health, at its meeting Jan. 9, 1906, took action advising that those suffer- ing from tuberculosis be not employed as teachers, 1. Bceause they cannot hope to recover while following such an occupation. 2. Because they are a menace to the school children under their vare, That children suffering from tuberculosis be excluded from school, 1. Because their recovery is not probable while they are kept under the strain of school life; 2. Becsuse the importance of fresh air, rest and good fooq is even greater for the growing child than for the adult, and the child attending school does not get the necessary amount of any of these; 3.7 Because close confinement in school may be followed by other forms of tuberculosis than consumption, and may cause permanent deformities or death; ; 4. Because school children with consumption (pulmonary tuber- culosis) aré a decided. menace to their associates; 5. Because by excluding tuber- culous': children - from . school and allowing them to recgver and at the same time prevept- ing ‘the’ infection of others, many livesiof value to.the state may be saved: 3 RE The ‘secretary was instructed to send these suggestions to every school board, health officer and superintendent of city and county schools throughout the state. Trusting that you will appre- ciate the importance of this ad- vice from the Minnesota State Board of Health, I am Very truly, H. M. BRACKEN, Secretary. MASTERS OF THE SITUATION POLICE AND MILITARY MANAGE TO MAINTAIN ORDER AT SPRINGFIELD, O. Bpringfield, O., March 3.—The night passed with no repetition of the riot- ous scenes of the two previous nights in this city. The ‘military and police apparently have the situation well in hand and with the exception of two incipient fires early in the evening no incident occurred to disturb ‘the peace. It is announced the militia will not be withdrawn until after Sunday. Brakeman Davis is still alive, though his death is'looked for any moment. Jacob Koch was arrested during the day for an assault on Private Arthur Ancil of Company I of Xenia. Koch was later taken before the wounded soldier, who identified him as his as- sailant.

St. Paul, March 8.—A confer- ence was held in the governor’s office regarding the petition filed Wednesday for the division of Itasca county into four counties. The governor, State Auditor Iverson and Secretary of State Hanson were at the meeting. They were not certain whether the provision of the new code re- garding new counties would i‘z.p- ply or not as the petition was filed before the code took effect. This petition will be considered with the others on March 16. Under the old law, all the peti- tions can be submitted to the voters at one time, while under the new code only one can be voted upon ata time. If the board decides that the old law applies and submits all at once, the signers of the International Falls petition will try to estab- lish by law that only one can be yoted on at a time, while 1f the board submits one petition the signers of the later petitions will probably go tolaw on the other side of the question.

St. Paul, March 8—“A great deal of misunderstanding exists inregard to the fish laws,’ said S. F. Fullerton, executive agent of the state game and fish com- mission. “No fishing is allowed April with hook and line; that is no one can use the hook and line in these two months, as they are the spawning months for fish, and ‘everybody who wishes to protect the fish will realize that | this is a necessity. Spearing can be done, pickeral and rough fish, only for domestic use and not for lsale “No Minnesota fish will be al- lowed to be sold during March and April.
