No explanation OF the causes that
led the board TO abolish the office OF
state Supervisor of Rural Elementary
Schools could be obtained in tho alb
sence OF superintendent II. c. Stearnes,
but 1t is understood that the board
was moved 10 such action by The feel
Ing that the supervision OF rural ele-
mentary schools does not require the
exclusive services of an inspector and
that better results could be obtained
by dividing the work among several
inspectors.
Mr. Lincoln arrived in Richmond
office OF school inspector. He will be
associated with L. T.. Worreil and
John 3. Terrell tho other school in
spectors. and will share the eXamina-
ton work with them. The inspection
formerly done exclusively by Mr.. Set
tie will be divided equally among the
three school inspectors. In tho abb
sence of Mr.. Stearnes, no desk was
assigned Mr.. Lincoln yesterday. and
the morning hours were spent by the
new inspector in making his acquain-
tance with the various officers In the

but was not aware that lie had been
arrested and tried. He took him in
custody. and despite vigorous protests
led him TO room adjoining the Police
Court, and there learned that Conway
had been tried. He at once relea sed
him. Conway was not satisfied. He
wanted to tell Justice Crutchfield how
badly he had been treated by the police.

policemen grabbed him and hustled him

LECTURES
ON ORAL HYGIENE
Urges Regular Supervision of
Teeth of Public School
Children.

pr Hubert J.. Whcelcr of New York,
spoke yesterday afternoon in the audi
torium OF the John Marshall High
School TO the mothers clubs and pupils
OF the public schools. and last night
schools. under the auspices OF the
Richmond Dental Society. DIR. Wheeler
is in charge OF the oral hygiene work
In tho public schools OF New York
State. and is regarded as an eminent
authority in that branch OF science,
which treats OF the health OF the mouth
aud the preservation OF the teeth.
The addresses. which were open TO the
public, are understood to have been
intended to pave the way for 4 request
TO the CITY School Board on the part
OF the Richmond Dental Society for
a systematic supervision OF the teeth
OF school children.
Or. Wheeler pointed out that thou
sands of dollars are expended each
year by cities and individuals for the
treatment of diseases which could
readily be prevented altogether by the
use Of simple precautions. If one
tenth OF the money spent in trying TO
cure diseases were spent in teaching
oral hygiene TO the young. the race, he
pier. There is little gain in securing a
pure milk pure water supply when
the mouth taking the fiud is flied with
disease germs. The crusade against
public drinking cups was good enough.
but did not go To the root OF the matter
hv destroying the germs that are in
the mouth before opportunity is Civ
On of communicating them TO others.
Or. Wheeler thought il az much the
duty OF the schools To- require that
pupils keep their mouths in proper or
dor as il was for teachers 10 require
pupils to have their hands and faces
clean. y diseaseladcn mouth, the
speaker considered as much n public
nuisance as case OF contagious dis
ease. and both should he rigidly eX-

The physicians and dentists OF the city.

that results Of systematic inspection

PROTEST AGAINST
ELECTRIC TOWERS
Farmers Along Richmond-P Peters
burg Line Take Case to Cor
poration Commission.

The state Corporation Commission
viii be asked on Tuesday morning to
decide question Of corporation law
when the hearing OF the complaints of
Bellwood and others against the Sea-
board Air Line Railway and the Vir-
ginia Hallway and Power Company is
called in the courtroom at the Capitol
The point a issue Is: has a public
service corporation the right to sublet
to another corporation or public car
rier the right of way which has been
granted to- il by the courts for n spc-
cific purpose?
In the case in point the SeaboarG Air
Line Railway entered into an agree
ment with the Virginia Railway and
Power Company, whereby the latter
is allowed TO set up its line OF new
steel poles. carrying high-current
wires, along the edge of the railroads
right of way between Richmond and
Petersburg. For great part of the
distance between the two cities. the
tracks OF the steam and electric lines
run parallel and with adjoining rights
Of way.
Just before the farm OF James Bell
wood is reached. however, the two
lines diverge. For reasons hest known
TO its officers. the street railway COM
pany wishes to continue its cable tow
ers to Petersburg on the steam rail
ways right of way. This places the
towers, conveying tremendous voltage
almost on the line between the right
of way and the land of citizens.
The complaining land owners pro-
test TO the Corporation Commission
that this is putting the right of way
granted TO the Seaboard Air Line Rail-
way to use not intended by tho
courts. and that the setting up of the
cable towers is done at tho injury to
the land and property of the complain
ants.
The charges were fiIcd for tbc nati
TONERS by tile law firm of Smith e.
Gordon. The regular attorneys for the
railways will appear to defend the ac-
ton.
