TEACHERS MAY
POSITIONS
FOR HARDNESS
Many Fail to Return
Vacations; Some
Have Cause

Summary dismissal will be the
penalty several Casper teachers will
have to pay for failure TO return on
time from the Christmas holidays,
II their reasons for hardness are
deemed unsatisfactory by the Board
of Education. Each of the fifteen in
%structors who were absent when
school work resumed last Monday
morning has been required to sub
nit a detailed report In writing. and
the board win pas on the validity
OF these xcuse at its next meet
meeting.
Supt. A. A. Slade was inclined TO
believe, however, that the majority
of the absentees were not blame
worthy. Although the total number
of AWOL's exceeded the casualty
list following any previous no iday
in the history of the city schools,
many of them were occasioned by
Illness. Other teachers. Mr.. Slade
said. had waited for the last possible
train and missed connections.
"There seems to have been an cpl
demic of legitimate reasons" he re-
marked.
II was acknowledged, however,
that the boards inquiry would be
thorough. Where Illness was given
as an excuse, the teacher has been
required 10 submit a physicians GER
tificate Of disability, quite in the
manner OF urchins who are guilty
of similar dere' iction.

morning kept the superintendent's

the tonneau. 1t was soaked with
blood and a bullet.hole, trimmed by.
powder strains. had neatly drilled
It in the rear and slightly TO tho
right side. The cnr had stood there
since Sunday evening.
The clue that injected the femin-
Inc element into the most battling
crime committed in Casper in many
months, was furnished by a tele-
phone conversation the record OF
which to date is exceedingly nebu-
lous. The conversation in question
is supposed to have taken place be-
tween Hulse and the woman short
ly before the crime is believed to
have been committed. one end os
the conversation was partly over
heard. At the time-little or no zig
nificance was placed on It but since
the finding of the b'ood.stained auto
mobile It has assumed major import
ance.

only a cursory glance and is unable
to describe her general appearance
or how she was dressed.

o'c'ock. After that hour the mans
actions are unknown. As Hulse's car
was first noted parked In front OF
95i South Cedar street Mt 1880 that
evening the commission OF the crime
is definitely established as between
the hours OF 6 and 1890 o'clock.
II Is also recalled by Erickson
that Hulse received a csll at his taxi
stand. in front OF the American no.
