laborer employed at the brick plant OF
the Idaho Lime Co., at Albenl Falls,
lost his life in the Pend Oreille river
Wednesday noon.
During the noon hour Casstauvuay
tried his luck at fishing in what is known
as the ebig char" hole below the big
falls. He hooked big one, and in en-
deavoring to swing the tish around to
land it he slipped in. Other fishermen
rushed to get a timber to throw out to
him, but he came up but once. The
water is clear aud the unfortunate man
could be seen struggling vainly against
the heavy undertow that held him
down. Suddenly the body shot up Into
the air, then disappeared and was seen
no more. 1t is doubtful if it will be re-
covered. though it may perhaps come to
the surface in Dead Mans Eddy below

notify either the proper health officer or
the family physician.
1.-The responsibility of placing and re-
leasing quarantine rests solely with the
health officer. who must satisfy himself
of the existence of the disease before
placing quarantine, and that it is safe
to do so before ordering the release OF
the quarantine"
The follow ing is the penalty prescribed
by law:
"Any person violating any of the pro-
v;o;ono IF th 10 ct or vinlatinp Or refns-
ing or neglecting to obey any of the rules
and regulations or orders made for the
prevention, suppression and control OF
dangerous, contagious and infectious
diseases by the county board of health
or health officer or state board of health,
or who shall leave any pest house OF
isolation or quarantined house or place
without the consent of the proper health
officer, or who evades or breaks quaran
tine, or couceals case of contagious Of

demeanor, and upon conviction thereo

Marshal Condemns
Buildings in Omaha
cErnn, a san Correspondent. J

LINCOLN, Dec. 2l-(special.) -The
state fire marshal's office has been
through an unusually busy season. In ad-
dition to the work that has been done
on the initiative of the department 100
complaints have been investigated and
forty-slx buildings condemned, among
them several which are landmarks OF
Omaha seventy-two structures of vari-
Gus kinds have been condemned in other
portions of the state and thirty orders
have been issued TO change conditions
where the fire hazard was considered
to be great.
The department has a certain method
OF knowing whether conditions have been
changed as ordered and II so just how
much the change has been. Wherever
any action is taken regarding building
photograph is taken OF the place and
on the next inspection conditions are
compared with the photograph. There Is
no lodging this record. These photo
graphs are filed with the papers con
nected with each investigation and the
entire lot represents a fine illustrated
story Of the wrecks and firetraps OF thS
state.
Some OF the wrecks OF today represent
buildings which at one time were the
pride OF the committee in which they are
now looked upon as eyesores. This Il
particularly true OF some which have beer
condemned In Omaha, one located on Six
teenth street probably having produced
more income for the owner than any
building OF the same original value ir
the state. 1t has grown more dilapidated
with each succeeding year until the edict
has finally gone forth that It must b,
wrecked by March l. Surrounded as Il
lis by business blocks. It has rented
readily all these years at a high figur,
