-DR. GONNELL WANTS SCHOOL REPORTS Health Commissioner Says the Medical Inspection is Not Run to Suit Him. BETTER AT PAROCHIALS Pending a discussion of the medical inspection question by the Board of Education on Monday evening, Sep- tember 18, the school 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. 2 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 re,uhr physician, who will de- vote half of his time superintending He school medical work and will e of the nurses. Commissioner Connell uses uncomplimentary language when the subject of public school medical ex- amination is brought up. . He main- tains that the parochiaf 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, his reply was, “I have nothing to say on the subject.” The health commissioner contends that his office should receive reports of the work of the school nurses. Prediots an Advance in 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 |3t 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|1 about a sharp advance in land prices this fall, or enrlg next spring. [ pre- dict that the Nebraska land now sell- ing at $40 and $50 per acre will jump fo $100 and $125 and land that fetch- ing $100, next spring will be sellmg between 5125 and $150 per acre. THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: SEPTEMBER 10, Indian Tells the Police His Body 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- son Pejoe, and I am a half-breed In- dian, 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 mysel my brother, Kirk, White Mos- urr; glxm We held up the depot lxt r 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 bndie tender and got $17. In 812 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 Fairfield, Ia., but done a flad job. Leaving the.e, my brother was killed by the cars. I buried him unbeknowns to anyone. I.never killed anyone, but my brother My home is in Oklahoma, and | ; shot the depot man at Baxter Springs. “JOHNSON PEJOE." Pejoe's body has not been reporttd as having been found in the river.

Mechanical Device for Unloading River Fleet A mechanical carrying device is soon to be put into operation at the barge house on the river front under the Douglas street bridge, so that sacks of grain may be unloaded from the steamboats by mechanical means instead of having them carried by hand. The extra expense of the cum- bersome unloading has hitherto been borne by Captain Neff of the Julius F. Silber, but now the river naviga- tion committee of the Commercial club, representing the Missouri River Navigation league, has decided to as- sume the expense and install this mechanical device. Greevy Wants Peddlers To Have Regular Lioenses M. J.
