TOM FLYNN HAS MORE WOES
Street Commissioner Again Maketh
the Welkin Ring.
SAYS KICKERs NOT FAULTLEss
Those Complaining Down Town Are
Permitting Maids at Home to
Contribute to Rubbish
Heaps in Alleys.

Street Commissioner Flynn is quoting the
beam and mote parable. Discussing criti-
cisms Of street conditions, he says:
While some of these folk are down town
kicking, their men and maid servants at
home are throwing refuse into the streets
and alleys, litterlng the public places. 1t
takes more than the street department and
its men to keep Omaha clean. 1 can see
dirt as far as any other man, and 1 know
what should be done and what is not done.
More men are employed on the streets of
Omaha today then ever before, but we
ought to have twice as many, and we
should have them all the year round.
Perhaps the critics forget that ten miles
Of new pavement were laid in Omaha last
year, the greatest amount ever put down
in one year. That stretch Of paving can
not be taken care of by the same number
Of men as formerly cleaned the streets.
If prominent citizens make the point that
the men hired are not the very best that
can be secured, 1 can only say that, since
they cannot get work with those same
business men. they must be given employ
ment somewhere to support their families.
And observation will show our men aver
aged up very well with the laborers en-
ployed by private contractors. For proof
of that statement, let the kickers watch
the flushing crews at work, or watch the
ice diggers and the dirt gatherers, out in
all kinds Of weather. You cannot get picked
men for that kind of labor.
SystematIzinE SOreIy Needed.
When we get tool houses located in diff
ferent parts Of the city, 80 that time need
not be wasted in travelling long distances
to begin work, we will be doing what any
private concern would have done long ago.
l have been urging this systematic method
of doing work, and have urged up-to-date
machinery be bought; in short, that the
city go about its extensive work in a bust
nesslike way, but without result. 1 have
asked for large wagons, to be owned by
the city, that would carry twice the amount
Of refuse an ordinary wagon carries at one
load, without avail.
"All this agitation will result in good,
some time in the future; and when the city
gets the right idea Of doing it's work. the
job of street commissioner will be a snap.
At present, the lack OF necessary things,
the neglect of the legislature to give the
council any emergency power, places the
city in the position of working in an old
fashioned catch-as-catch-can fashion that
is expensive without being effective. Bust
ness men can change this condition II they
will investigate for themselves and then
act when the Legislature meets"

with the exception that the skin of what
mad once been a nose was partially left,
nat against the nasal passages. Alto
gether, David Raymond was In no condi-
ton to make faces at anything or any
body.
Surgeons UndIsznnyed,
After a careful survey Of Mr.. Raymond's
facial remains, the surgeons agreed that
here was field for experiment worthy of
their skill and ambition. They took all
necessary steps to make David comfortable
and to prepare him for a long siege Of very
particular and delicate dental and surgical
work. Tit skin of the chin. or what was
left of 1t, was used to cover the portion
remaining Of the lower jaw, and a dentist,
after careful measurement and planning,
constructed bridges and crowns that will
eventually enable the patient to consume
his government rations. In fact, right now
he is doing fairly well as a member Of the
oppressed family of consumers.
But the nose-that's where the fine work
is being done. This Indian will have a
silver proboscis when he leaves the hos
pital. A silver frame was constructed. of
temporary character at first, which was
anchored to the bones of the face by
screws. While Mr.. Raymond did not insist
on 1t, as a matter OF wise precaution, he
was anaesthetized while the surgeons
worked at this cklish job Of laying a keel
FOR a new nose. The silver frame in place.
the skin that had once covered his natural
nose was drawn over 1t with great care.
All OF this repair work has. consumed
up to date, something like three months
and now the surgeons are about ready to
place the permanent nose frame in posi-
ton. But Raymond is not out of the hos
pital yet by a good deal. In fact, the
surgeon who is in charge of the case saws
his stay in the hospital, and the completion
OF the extraordinary work On his face is a
matter of indefinite date.
This case will take its place in surgical
