i CAPITOL WALLS STILL BUDGING Occupants of State Superin- tendent's Office Continue to Have Alarms. CAR ORDER FROM BOARD (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, Sept. 30.—(Special.)— Some of the occupants of the state superintendent’s office were given a fright again this morning over the condition of the southeast corner of the capitol, which they are afraid may collapse. It was reported that the walls had settled more Friday night, cracking the plate glass in one of the windows and throwing State En- Nebraska l‘ |COMES TO OMAHA TO LEARN TO BE A NURSE. | | | | | | gineer Johnson's plumb line out an | mch to the west.

Moritz Is Uneasy. R. D. Moritz of the educational de- fiarlhcm called on Governor More- ead and Land Commissioner Beck- mann, whom he urged to have the southeast section of the building con- demned. He thought the state de- partment should move out of the of- fices. The officials directed State En- gineer Johnson to make another ex- amination and he declared there was no grave reason for fear at the pres- ent time. The investigation, however. revealed that the capitol is in bad condition. Some of tlfé heavy joists and beams of the roof have been rotting, allow- ing rain and snow to drip through on the offices below. | Reavis to Talk in Lincoln. Congressman C. F.

Against the wishes of her parents, Miss Oberfelder slipped away to Omaha and enrolled in the Wise Memorial hospital training school for nurses. “I've lots of vitality, I like the work, I am not afraid to work and maybe I can do.some good.” So reasons the younthful aspirant to the white cap and apron, “I am tired of doinq nothing but having a good time.” Which seems to breathe. the spirit of the times, so far as girls are concerned. No longer does the social world attract or idleness tempt one to while away the flight of time.” The earnestness and zeal with which ' their ‘daughter has taken up the work has overcore parental ob- jections and now Mr. .d Mrs, Ober- felder are noting their daughter's rogress with interest, as well as lending encouragement to her.
