ftatement of the case,an l a;d that
an tfiort had beeu madej o prejudice public I
opinion in this case,and tUatevea tae papers
had published manufactured evidence; for i
which etatement he arew upon his exceed in £-
ly ftru.e imagination.
Me'srn Bowser and Gilbreath spoke for
tl.e deler.danw rn »!ie legal questions involv
ed, a*:d Judge McJunkia on the facis. lie
thought this proceeding ought to end, that
the prosecution Lad been carried on in a vin
dictive vpirit, that the defendants should be
called ui on to answer in the proper Court,
that defendants could not deliver the
child to the father and never could li£ve,I i£ve, un
!*.-s th-y bad used physical to take it
fn m tfce uiciher, «n<l that the railroad coru
canies'h;.t carried the mother a*ay might
welt be held for contempt as fiese defend- ■
ants
Met andless, who always has something
novel blu startling to say, compared the de- :
fcndanbi in this case to the anarchists lately j
hung io Chicago. The anarchists did not J
actually throw the bomb, but they were
there and encouraged it, and therefore were
held ictptnsible, these defendants wr.re pres
ent when tbn child was taken and therefore ;
should Le held responsible. Charley also j
attempted to quote>ome scripture but got it
wrong and Judge Uazen, w,io
wss belter posted corrected
him Religion is not Charley's forte, he
should stick to the ' lurid liver and shining
trail" line, in which be is so brilliant a suc
cess. Tr.e prosecution asked that the four
defendants present be cited to show cause
why thty should uot De held for contempt of
Coiut. Jndge Hazen took the papers,and at
ti:is writing, has made no order.

Rough on the School teacher.
A citizen of Cranberry Twp. writ
ing from 0«le, says:
We. the patrons of the schools of
this township, have been paying our
taxes every Jf-ar. and we do not al
ways receive the proper return for our
money. We do not tfcink this b right.
It is only about two years ogo that
we paid about §l5O to a couple of
girls, who iu actions, if not iu years,
were babies. The people tolerated
them until they could do so no long
er, and fin illy the directors ask"d the
parents of the girls to take them home.
Now, although tho Semple schorl
has only beeu in session a short time,
only children belonging to families
who are able to dress them nicely,
receive any attention.
Now we demand of tha directors
of this township that they see to it
that each child is taught alike, wheth
er they be rich or poor. I also think
the order in our schools could be im
proved considerably, us pupils can
uot study in a bedlam. If the teacher
we have cannot control the pupils,
give us one that can.
I do not think it the best plan for
directors to hire a teacher that was
seated in the water bucket iu an ad
joining township, especially when the
pupils in tho district she has been
hired in are all acquainted with the
fact. 1 have paid my tax and I dou't
care whether my child is dressed in
velvet, silk or calico, wears a blue
ribbon on her hair or a string, I waut
her to get the same amount of teach
