check numbers attached, also that he
had shown the telegram to Sheriff
Pfost and C. E. Chrsman. At this
point the prosecution sought to intro
duce the telegram, but it was not ad-
mitted, although County Attorney
Givens argued that it connected Shee-
han with the case, that the numbers of
the checks on the trunks sought by
Sheehan were the same as those con-
tanned in the telegram, and that he re-
garded it as an important piece of in
formation which should be laid before
the jury. Mr.. Lundy stated in his tes-
timony that Sheehan had come to the
depot on the date the whisky arrived
and casually asked about the time of
the arrival of the train from Salt Lake
On cross examination he was asked
one question, and that was if he had
any means If knowing who had
checked the trunks from Salt Lake

In press bulletin 10. IS issued by
the department of education is found
the following relating to work of the
state board of education, school legis-
lation and health work in schools:
Board is constantly gathering facts
and data concerning the schools, and
studying the experiences of the schools
throughout the state. The material
thus obtained forms the basis of all
recommendations made.
One of the main ideas of the board
with regard to school law is to simplify
it by removing unnecessary provisions
and getting rid of conflicts and OBJ
securities, many of which have accumu-
lated owing to measures being passed
without due consideration of other
statutes. At the last session of the
legislature. the recommendations of the
board resulted in actually reducing the
bulk of the school law.
The board decided to recommend
bill to enable the counties and school
districts to carry on health work in
went on record as in favor of laying
stress upon health rather than disease
in all this work: they favored having
the health inspection in the schools
made as privately as possible.
A number of the larger districts
in the state are already conducting
health work and the results are graft
flying in the extreme. One of the
largest towns in the state has practi-
cally eliminated epidemics of children's
diseases by this method. In this mat

SYRACUSE SWEEPS HUDSON;
 WINS TWO AND FOUR M|LERS
Freshmen Race Put Off to Monday; Cornell Grabbed Second in Each Race, Max ing Pace for Columbia and Pennsylvania
Republican A. p. Leased wlrel

pQUGHKEEPSIE, N. r., June IT, Syracuse University's eight cared crews won the two essential events of the intercollegiate regatta late to- day. The freshmen race was post poned until Monday
 In both the four mile varsity and the junior two-mile contest, Coach Ten Eyeck's oarsmen took command shortly after the start and were never headed. They swept across the finish line in perfect form with plenty of power apparently, in reserve.
 Cornell was second in each race. and if it had not been for Coach Court neys pupils the regatta would have been devoid of excitement and inter- est. for neither Columbia nor Penn sylvania could give the Syracuse or Cornell eights a real battle in the twenty annual regatta of the Intercollegiate Rowing Association.
 All four crews rowed gamely, but the Syracuse combination had both the rowing technique and the physical strength to stave off the other con- testants.
 Syracuse's Varsity won the feature race of the day, defeating Cornell by a little more than a length, with Co., lumbia about seven lengths behind the New York oarsmen. The official times for the four-mile race were:
 Syracuse, 20:15 2-5: Cornell 2O:22 4-5; Columbia. 2O;41 1-5; Pennsylvania, 20:25 4-5
 In the junior varsity two mile race Syracuse finished one and quarter lengths ahead of Cornell, with Co., lumbia five lengths in the rear of Coach Rice's eight, and the latter some fifteen lengths ahead of Penn sylvania The times were:
 Syracuse, 11:15 2-5; Cornell 11:20 2-5: Columbia, 1132 and Penn sylvania, 12:O6 Is.
