In conversation yesterday with a Brereporter Dr. Summers revealed quite an interesting chapter in the record of the State Board of Public Lands and Buildings. Dr. Summers did not talk like a man who has a grievance. The statements he made came more in the form of a casual conversation than in the guise of a growl, Isee that the State Board of Public Lands and Buildings has been vosing as a very much overworked body of men,” said the doctor at the outset. “It may be true that they worked very hard,” he confinuea, “but they must have put in a good deal of their time visiting other institutions than the asylum at Norfolk if that is the case, for during my rerm of thirteen months not o member of the board ever set foot in the in- stitution. ‘They did not even write any let- ters of inquiry to learn how the institution wasgetting on. I willsay to their credit, however, that when I wrote to the board about matters pertaining to the institution my letters wore always promptly answered, “Tug BeE claims that certain funds appro- priated for puttingin a new boiler at the asylum were spent for other purposes. I can easily explain that matter. When I took charge of the institution I found by the able assistance of Mr. Patterson, who is recog- nized as one of the very best engineers fn the state, that the sjell of the old boiler was perfectly good, although some of the flues were worn out. We also discovered that the high pressure boiler was in a similar condition. I sent to Sioux Cit; for an expericnced boiler maker and ha him examine the old boilers. He said that for $385 he could make the old ones as good asmew. I found that I could have theold boilers repaired and have money enough left out of the boiler fund to repair some of the floors, which were completely worn out, and provide some needed appa- ratus for the laundry. Before turning o hand, however, T went to Lincoln, taking the cngineer with me, and laid the matter be- fore the board. ~Mr. Hastings said thoy did not want to make a public record of the mat- ter. Allen told me to goahead and carry out the plan I suggested with regard to re- pairing the old boilers and they would see that the bills were paid. I did so, and in spending the money for repairs in- stead of buying new boilers I was shnplgo carrying out the instructions of the board. I certainly was not guilty of mism)plyln%etho funds, for I ln(fiulha whole matter before the board and waited for instructions. I have no apology to make for the suggestion, either, for I believed then and Ibelieve now that iv was the best thiog to do under the circumstances. The only thing I care to say in connection with that matter is that the board should not blame me for the manner in which that money was expended when the plan was approved by the board and I simply carried out instruc- tions, ““When I took charge of the asylum, after Goyernor Boyd had been declared a citizen and had again been restored to his rightful ‘position as governor, Dr. Wilkinson, my pre- decessor, had expended, between ' April 1, 1801, and February 15, 1802, a little over $8,000, leaving me with less than $7,000 to run the institution for nearly fourteen months. - Isoon discovered that I was likely to come out with a deficiency and set about ‘)lanlllnx to have money in some way, so that could pull the institution through on the mone{dnppm‘\rinuxl for the two years, $15,- 000, y engineer told me that if we could get Rock Springs coal instead of Newcastle we could save several hundred doiars. I asked him if he could give substantial proof of this statement, He showed that he could get 29 &(;; cent more service out of the k S‘prlngu coal than out of the Newcastle coal. [ had him make aj statement of this and I wired Mr. Allen not to let the contraci for any more coal until T could see him. I went to Lincoln a few days later and found that the board had 1et the contraet for Newcastle slack coal right in the face of the evidence that I had furnished. I told the board that if they would give me Rock Springs slack in- stead of Newcastle I could pull the institu- tion through on the appropriation, but I could not do it if they persisted in furnish- ing me with Newcastle coal. Instead of do- ing as I suggested, they sent me a lot of Newcastle lump at $4.05 per ton in- stead of slack at $3.8 It happened that I ran out of New: @ coal one time because the company having the contract had none on hand, I wired Mr. Allen ask- ing him what I should do and he answered me, stating that | haa better purchase from some of the local dealers. Ilaid ina good v of Rock Springs coal and saved over . Last January I told Mr. Allen that there was goingto be a deficiency in the entire appropriation, but if the board would permit me to buy coal as 1 wanted to 1 could save several hundred dollars on the coal ac- count and probably bring the institution out retty nearly even. ‘r'hey agreed to let me ollow that plan and between January 1 and April 1 I saved $1,027. That is, T expended that much less than would have been ex- llended if the board had persisted in purchas- ng Newcastle coal. Now I would like to know what has been done with that money, “It might have been spent for coal, but | saved it in the way I have explained. [n the statoment of the expenditures I fail to find what has become of the $1,927, and that is the thing I want the board to explain. It ought to be accounted for in some way, and 1expect to be in Lincoln in a few days and then I am going to find out if the board can tell me what became of that money and why it has not been accounted for. I requested the board at one time to have some of the monoy shifted to the accounts that were r::n\nukl‘uw but the auditor would not do that. statement of how tke money was finally gotten out of the coal account and where it went to.” = Piles of people ave bues, but De Witt' Witch Hazel g’dn will oure thew. \ Cidl THE _OMAHA DAILY BER: SATURDAY.

FOUR SHOTS FIRED AT THE FAST MAIL Enterprising Burglar Still Aburgling—Much Sickness in the Maglo City—Judge Fowler 1l—Notes and Personals. “I'm an old man out of money,” was the only excuse P. F. Britt gave last evening for cutting his throat with the intention of com- miting suicide. Britt is about 85 years of age. Yesterday afternoon he went into the alleyway be- tween Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh and Mand N streets and with a penknife made a bungling job a determined effort to take his life. The blade of the knife was very small and did not go 1n deep. The windpipe and jugular were not touched, but one open- iug was made from just below the chin through to the mouth. He was standing in a stooped position with the blood gushing out in a stream when discovered by Peter Johnson and some boys who were (Ylnymg ball. The police were notified and Britt was taken to the rolica station, where Dr. Kelley sewed up the gashes. Unloss blood poisoning should set in the wounds are not considered necessarily fatal. Early last ovening Britt was taken to St. Joseph's hospital. He had nothing to say ex- cept that he did not cut deep enough. Britt is the name Peter Mitchell and other acquaintances knew the man by, al- though he had letters in his pocket ad- dressed to *S. P. Breck.” He was originally from New York City, where years ago he was considered a wealthy man. He lost his wife, children and money and came west. Three years ago he went to work at Cudahy’s, and, with the exception of a few months that he was in Kansas City, has worked there steadily until a few days ago, when he was discharged. Those who know him consider him to be insane. For yearshe had been a hard drinker, but some months ago was cured of the drink habit acd has not touched liquor since. Britt was & quiet man and never bothered auy one. Burglars Still Aburgling. Burglars blew open the safein C. K. Spear- man's store at Papillion last night, but as there wasno cash in it the fellows took nothing but a few postage stamps. The South Omaha police received a description stating that one of the burglars had a cl';wkod finger on his left hand, but that was all. There are still some light-fingered in- dividuals at large in South Omaha. Thurs- day evening between 6 and 7 o'cluck $50 was stolen from D. Davidson’s store, jusu west of the Q street viaduct. Davidson has a double store, handling hardware and groceries. The cleck was alone and while waiting on a customer in the hardware de- partment a thief stepped into the grocery side and lifted $50 in bills from the money drawer. There is no clew whatever to the robber, Fired at the Fust Mall, Some lunatic or drunken person fired four pistol shots at the Union Pacific fast mail trainas it passed the Summit Thursday night. The bullets went through the windows, but fortunately did not strike any individuals. ‘What the man's object could have been is not known as he stood off on the bank and fired at random. The police have been unable to locate the man, but it is thought he is insane, who- ever he may be. Magio City Gussip. mBoru, to Mr. and Mrs. C. P. Mendenhall, & Y. Mrs. T. B.

He sentenced one fellow to fifteen days in the county jail, first and last five days on bread and water, for drunkermness, then himself went home and went to bed. James Maher is in hard luck.
