Locked oat of his own home by his mother, ''who thought that he was the lone bandit, who has been terrorizing Ottamwa the past few days, was the experience of Roy Nelson a Milwau kee railroad man this morning when he returned home from work at an early hour. The incident occurred at 618 West Main street Returning from his trip on the road he hurried to his home at 6:30 o'clock. His mother hearing some one trying to get Into the house was alarmed and had her other son telephone the police sta tion. A squad of officers hurried to the scene. The house was sur rounded and the railroad man was cap tured. After proving his identity lie was released and the patrolmen hur ried back to the police station empty banded. "I didn't expect Roy home so soon ap he .only went out yesterday after noon and I was badly scared when I heard him come up on the porch with a heavy tread," stated Mrs. Nelson in an interview this morning. "I was thinking of the holdup man and I guess Roy thought he would play a trick on me, but the trick turned out to be on him. When he came upon the porch I asked him who he was, but he failed to answer me and I reftised to open the door, thinking that he was the holdup man. In the meantime my other son called up the police station and when they arrived they found Roy on the hack porch and he told them who he was. I think it was a vary un pleasant trick for him to play on me." Fred 'Rowland, a tramp and a sus picious looking character was picked up by Patrolman William Black last night, the officer believing that he was the holdup man. When arraigned in court this morning, Rowland washable to prove an alibi and was given his freedom William Galaway of South Bend, Ind., was before Police Judge Morrjssey this morning for intoxica tion.

CARE OF CHILDREN The Medical Inspection of the Schools Proves Instructive Theme For The Chicago Physician— Tells Useful Things. Braving a storm that only courage and determination could make one encounter, most of the teachers of the Ottumwa public schools as well as the members of the school board and sev eral physicians visited the high school Friday night in the snow and sleet to attend the lecture of Dr. Anna Blount of Oak Park. 111. To those who have given thought, to the medical inspec tion of the schools, the trip was worth while and no regret has been voiced by those present for having braved the weather. Taking her subject, from her 07V11 experiences in the schools of Chi cago Dr. Blount spoke on "Medical In spection in Public Schools" saying in part the following: State Takes Hold. "The latest, parental function to be assumed by the state or its educational department is the watch-care over the health of its children. Naturplly one of the first objections raised to the medical inspection of the schools is that it invades the parent's right to have his child's ailment diagnosed by homeopath, or osteopath, Christian Science, chircopractic, mind healer or regular physician. "Among the many wrathful not^s from parents received by the head mistress in Devon, after the installa tion of medical inspection there, was one to this effect: 'Dear Madam. I object to my, child being overorled by a doctor. I clears his blood vessels regular with brim stone and treacle and he don'f want no more doctrine.' "Thus it is that the school inspec tion furnished one more breach in the entrenchments erected around the sacred rights of parenthood. We might comfortably stop at this time to discuss the changing basis of the state from the family to the individual, but time would fail us. The landmarks along the line of this change would be the abolition of household slavery the emergence of women from being property to owning property. Care For the Child. "To me it is relatively clear that the best interests of the home are con served by dealing with the child as an individual, from a sanitary point of view, as from an educational and for tne state to stand ever ready to make up the deficiencies of the parents. If a child is dirty beyond the normal healthy standard he should be bathed before he is taught, so we have in Chicago the school bathroom and the batl. attendant. If the child is hungry he should be fed before he is taught: if he is sick he should be cured,' and if his sight or hearing is defective, he should have the best ad vantages. and appliances for seeing and hearing, before he is taught. It is better for the state to spend money for bat's and dinners, medicines and spectacles, than for the housing and caring of the human derelect who is' the mature product of the neglected child. Prophylaxis is always better than amelioration, and far cheaper in the long run. Public to be Guarded. "I am not denying that there are cases and occasions when the public interest and individual welfare of the child seems diametrically opposed, as for instance when it is necessary to hospitalize cases of scarlet fever, smallpox or diphtheria in small child ren or infants, for the safety of the public. I can only say that in the war with disease, as-in any war, individual interests must sometimes be sacri ficed. Other Nations Have it. "We have medical inspection today in England. France, Belgium, Sweden, Switzerland, Bulgaria, Japan, Argen tine Republic and most of Germany. Massachusetts has a compulsory medi cal inspection law, New Jersey and California have a permissive one, Ver mont has a law for the annual testing of vision and hearing as also has Con necticut for triennial tests. Besides this a large number of cities and towns have provided'inspection without state law. Four Objects. "The objects of school inspection are four, and some cities aim at one, some at two. while others at all three of these objects which are the following: "First—Protection of the school from contagious diseases, by excluding those who have them. "Second—Detection of eye and ear troubles, and informing parents of their existence, that they may have them corrected, or permit the city to supply glasses, etc. for the deficient child. This primarily to benefit the individual child. Third—Examination of the child for general nutrition, mentality, all sorts of physical (defects, such as adenoids, enlarged tonsils, club-feet,etc. making measurements and classifications of the children, both mentally and physi cally. "The purpose of these extensive in vestigations is both statistical and corrective. "Fourth—To this should be added sanitary inspection, which is some times done -by the school inspector, but should be the work of an expert. "Of these classes the first one is the most general and the necessity for it is obvious." Dr. Blount delved much further into the matter of inspection of the schools and related many of her own experi ences that fully proved the wisdom:.of such a course being enforced hi tftfe schools for the general welfare of the MMinm «aPH££MM|Wtt' •.-»,.—.»• ''-fSJBW"--'' .L»ftkMWl!^'^'^ fcsp"1"*"-,«ss. *v .....

LOSS HALF INSURED Damagep?ne Amounts to About $100,' 000—tAII Burned Buildings Were .Frame—Incendiarism Also 8uspected. Mystic, Jan. 13.— (Special) Whether the fire that burned over three blocks and destroyed twenty buildings yesterday morning was of incendiary origin, or was started by one of the store cats upsetting a lamp is a matter in dispute. Many believe that a cat in the M. C. Talbot store where it started upset one of the lamps left burning as a precaution against burglars. Night Watchman Hugh Darrah thinks, that oil must have had a part in starting the quick blaze, either from a lamp, or by some Incendiary, as only ten minutes before the fire he passed down the alley at the rear of the Talbot store and saw no fire. When he looked out and saw it after getting to the Milwaukee de pot it quickly had the building all ablaze.

Sullivan, who has been sup erintendent for two years, was nomi nated last spring by both parties, but, because she had been elected on the republican ticket, filed her declination of the democratic nomination. Mary G. Cretzmeyer was nominated to fill the vacancy on the ticket and in the November landslide received a small plurality.. Miss Cretzmeyer had not been in school work and had neglected to have her certificate renewed, or to attempt to procure a certificate by ex amination. The law requires that the county superintendent shall hold a first grade ceniflcate, state certificate or life diploma. She held none, but the board approved her bond and Miss Sullivan also filed a bond, as provided in case of officers holding over, to fill vacancy. The board and the candidates agreed that the situation was detrimental to the schools of the county and seemed to be unable to solve the question. Fin ally Miss Sulliyan proposed that if Miss Cretzmeyer would withdraw, she in turn would withdraw, providing Miss Cretzmeyer shall obtain a certi ficate at the January examination, in which case the latter is to have the office. This met the approval of all concerned. ALBIA COUPLE ELOPE. Rex Morrow and Lena Evans Away From Friends and Wed in Monmouth.
