BUT THE FLACK:WAS PUT UP AGAIN

WHEfiE IT HOW fLOATS UN

MOLESTED,

i'iie Facts of t!nj .Clasc—Interview

With

Misd Connor and James Stark.

A thorough invesl igation of tin? tearinor down of tho flag from school lionso, O O No. 'J, in Clark township has been made, and in. brief are as follows: Miss Emma Connor purchased tifty cent llag in this city, and told her school children that she was going to place it on the school house. They were all delighted and circulated tho news over the neighborhood. James Stark, who had taken his children from school, beemse. as he says, "the teacher was partial." said that it should not be put up. On Saturday afternoon, Oct 24, the teacher secured tho services of two men and they steepled the flag staff on the top of the belfry of the school house. On Sunday morning, Oct. 25, -Tames Stark went to the home of "Walter Clark, where was also Frank Null, and these three went to tho school house, and using the township ladder, broke off the flag staff and threw the flag to the ground. Stark then took the fci'lag and nailed it to tho gate post of a Mr. Lilly, where Miss Connor found it when she returned from church. On Tuesday the Hag was placed upon a pole and stuck down the water spout, and is still there, although clubs have been thrown at it.

Miss Connor was seen and is daily receiving more mail than any dozen persons in Ladoga receive in a week These letters are from all over the country, and contain clipping from newspapers with highly sensational accounts of the affair. Sho thinks slio is ha1 honor thrust upon her, and had no idea the affair would assume such gigantic proportions. But she says that all of the actual patrons of the school approve of her action in the matter, and that every person, as well as she, is glad that she is to lie given a silk Hag, and looks foward to that event with great pleasure. The men who caused the rumpus are JaMes Stark, 50 years old, Walter Clark, a young married man, and to the Frank Null, a single man about thirty asked years old. These men got mad at Miss Connor on account of an alleged partiality in the punishment of a girl for Sighting, and because she made a son of Stark move his seat in the school room and forced the parents of the Clark boy to purchase a certain book according to law. Such trilling things as these are the foundation of tho ill-will of these n.en against the teacher.

Miss Connor is a determined woman and when she once speaks tho word, that is the law. She is a fluent talker, and makes very plain her statements of every incident connected with the affair, and from careful inquiry it was learned that all her statements were true. There is probably no danger now but that the little flag will not be torn down, but it may be knocked down by the their way rejoicing.

TUE L'AMOCS SCHOOL HOI SI:. The school house from whose the Hag was jerked down, is three miles south-east of Ladoga.

lot on the south side of tho road, and between tho homes of Stark and Clark anil Null. Thus it is virtually surrounded by the men who invaded the township property, and tore down the flag which they stole and nailed upon the gatepost of a me'iibar of tho G. A

1NTKUVIKW WITH .TAJUiS STAKK.

.Tames Stark lives about a quarter of a mile this side of tho school house, and the house sits back 111 tho yard on a hill, overlooking the entire surrounding count ry. Tho reporters bitched their horse along the road while the object of, their search stood in a hack door and sized them up with frowns on his face. Ho disappeared once but soon came back |and gazed as before. However, newsI paper men are not afraid of frowns nor: I of any man who is nnnlicated in pulling I down flags, and they boldly walked up the lull, past a spring house, into the I gate and up to the door where James

Stark was standing. "Good afternoon," said one of the reporters, whilo the other in turn sized up the man lio was supposod to bo tho chief among tho guilty parties. ••llowdy," returned Stark with firmness. '1 ••Is this Mr. Stark?"'"was asked. "That is just who I am, sir," he said with emphasis. "Yes sir, thanks. Wo uro out investigating this matter of tho Hag being removed iroin the school house, and desire to ask you tho particulars of the matter and what prompted tho act." "Yes, you are newspaper men, and are trying to lind out something," said Stark. "As we understand that yon wero implicated in tho affair, it was best to see you personally and get your side of the story."

At this point ho ventured to ask tho cold and shivering reporters hi to the house, where they warmed their lingers around a cook stovo. and eyed a shot gun which hung over tho door. There was a lady in the room, supposed to bo his wife, but as Stark did not introduce her, this is only a supposition.

Stark then told about the causes which led him to take his children from

school, and said that "ho took down tho llag because his children could not go to school there." "It is understood that Miss Connor will receive a hatulso no silk ling soon," said one of tho newspaper men

"Yes, I WHS in Ladoga yest.en.lay and good for

heard that the Grand Army was intend ing to give her a silk flag," snappishly said Mr. Stark, with great emphasis on the words "Grand Army." "That is true, but the flag is given by the P. O. S. of A.. S. of. V. and a. A. R. joint.lv, and not tho G. A. R. alone," said the fighting reporter.

Mr. Stark, lo be plain and bring the matter to a line point, who pulled down the flag'/" was asked.

Three of us did it—I, Walt Clark and Frank Null," answered Stark with juickness. "Who actually broke off the flag from the belfry?" was asked.

I will not answer that, let the other side answer this," he said. Did you meet Frank Null in tho road and toll him if bo did not go along with you to pull down the Hag that you would thrash hini?" was asked. "I did not meet Null in the road. We met at Clark's and all went from there to the school house," answered Stark. "How did you get up high enough to get hold of the Hag?" was asked Stark. "I suppose a ladder was used," said Stark, as he winked his eye and spit. "They are going to put a polo in tho school yard and tise it for hoisting flags," casually remarked one of the visitors. "I have no objection if tho trustee willing," said Stark. "Did you say that the flag was a rag, and nothing but a Republican flag, anyhow?" was asked. "Well I did say that it was a Republican who put it up and that it was put up to spite me, and I took it down to spite her," said Stark. "You surely do-not object to the flag being on the school house do you was asked. "There is no law for it, and nobody else does it." he said. •'You are mistaken tho"o are hun dreds of school houses where the flag is hoisted and no person should object," answered the spokesman. "Didn't know that," returend Stark. "Didn't you people l".y yourself liable uw for doing what you did?" was

"Yes, I guess we did, a little," lie answered, "but I myself nailed tho flag up on Lilly's gate-post." "The grand jury may stir you fellows up over this matter, and make you wish that yo i..had not pulled down the flag to spite tho teacher," said the reporter. "Yes, so I hear," said Stark. "Of course, you will be present when the new flag is presented to Miss Conner. will you not?" was asked. "I will not 1)9 there," ho said, "but will tell you anything you want to know further about that teacher." "This is all we desire to know-," replied one of the reporters, and bidding the lady in the room "good evening," the two newspaper men were escorted from the house by Mr. Stark, and went

All the people about Ladoga condemn the action of these three men, and they are good and loyal citizens, who love our Hag with patriotic devotion.

A CASE OF HAY FEVER

At any rate, whether Hush

or broke, the average gambler, whether card sharp, horse player or faro dealer, always sees things worth seeing, and if successful at his calling is usually a close observer of human nature. So the reporter saluted a gambler as he stood on the afterdcck of a lay Kidgo boat last evening coining from the races. This is the conversation: "Win or lose?" by reporter. "Win—good money. I'.ig play on last race."

The "•ambler had won. lie was not

"I was thinking," said he, "how easy some, men can weep, shed tears, yes, cry like women. Only to-day a big man came to the back of my box with a ticket on King lla/.em. It called for fifty dollars against live dollars. There he stood with tears running down his face and his ticket, r«idy to be cashed, in his hand, l'oor fellow, I thought, that money will help him out of some tight place. 'Crying for joy?' I asked. 'Nope,' said the man. 'Sorry you won?' said I, surprised. 'Nope,' he replied." "Why, what was the matter with him?" asked the reporter, unable to hold down his curiosity. "Had hay fever." said the gambler, looking far, far away.—N. Y. Commercial Advertiser.
