Dr. Connell Finds a Few Contagious Cases in Schools Medical examination of fifteen public and parochial schools made this week by the health commissioner and a staff of physicians resulteq in sending to their homes sixteen children afflicted with diphtheria and seven with scarlet fever. There are five other cases of suspected scarlet fever under observation. The sixteen diphtheria cases were of the positive nasal olass, which, the health commissioner explains, might spread the Qisease in its more serious form. | Dr. Connell feels that his efforts were ‘well repaid and he adds that his findings offer further evidence of the needs of medical examination of all schools.

Mrs. Little had recovered from the ef- feots of the smoke y ay morning. Letter Finds Man in Omaha, Although it is Not Directed Here H. B. Thixton of Loulsville, Ky., is un- der the impression that the letter car- riers’ convention has improved the serv- loe given by the Postoffice department. Mr, Thixton, who is a prominent distiller of Loulsville, has receilved a letter ad- dressed to him at the Robidoux hotel, Kansas City. There is no such hotel in Kansas City, but there is in St. Joseph. The letter, however, shows up in Omaha without any forwarding address and with nothing to guide it except the incorrect address shown on the envelope. It came to the Fontenelle, where Mr. Thixton is stopping, and was only six days behind schedule. Where the letter wandered to in the six days it was overdue is not known, but it finally got to the destina- tion intended for it, and Mr, Thixton is ready to give the credit to the convention in Omaha.

LARGE NUMBER GO BY AUTO Somewhere in the neighborhood of 2,600 persons went.to Lincoln yes- terday for Omaha day at the state fair. With excellent weather and the Ashland road reported good, automo- biles appeared bright and early and started for the fifty-five-mile run. Something over 100 automobilds, it is estimated, made the trip. By some it is thought that this estimate is low, for over sixty had reported at the headquarters of the Omaha Auto club by 10 o'clock, and after obtain- ing pennants and badges had started from there. Shortly before 10 o'clock the Auto elub ran short of pennants for the autos and sent a hurry ocall to Ak-Sar-Ben's office for more. At the same time cars were Ak-Sar-Ben's office. All day Wednesday the decorations were given out to those who preferred to get ready for the trip. Two Special Trains. For the accommodation of state fair visitors the Burlington ran two special trains to Lincoln in the morning, each carrying elght coaches. Two extra coaches were attached to No. 1, and one each to Nos. § and 16, About 1600 tickets were sold at the uptown office and at the depot. The tickets sold aggreegated about 200 more than on Omaha day last year, Among the Omahans going over the Burlington were Captain Martens and prize winning drill team. On its regular morning train for ILin- coln, the Rock Island attached extra coaches here and carried 100 state fair visitors.
