Lftst Friday evening Judge Pear

son was compelled to return to Bed

ford on account of the serious ill

ness of his mother, and he appoint

ed EliK.Millen to occupy the bench

during: his absence, Mr. Miilan

made a very satisfactory and com

petent Judge, and he pushed the business of the Court as rapidly as

possible.

In the case of Wm. Harrison, charged with stealing a horse and

buggy from Bona Rogers, and disposing: of them over in Jackson

county, Judge Millen discharged

the prisoner on the grounds thft

the charge should have been ob

taining property under false pre tens

es instead of larceny. Harrison hav

ing once been put in jeopardy cannot again be arraigned for the same offensei The case of William Lyons, a railroad brakeman, charged with

.highwav robbery, was tried by J udge

Millen Monday. A short time ago it was alleged that Lyons met a boy named Wm. Payne down the rail

road, just South of the depot, at night, and,drawihg a revolver,made

Payne give up his watch and a new

pair of shoes. The defense was an alibi, the evidence on that side going to show that Lyons was at his

boarding house, in the Dunn build

ing, and did not leave there ail the

evening. JLestimony was also introduced that another man was seen in Luckey's saloon, after the robbery, with a new pair of shoes under his arm. No revolver, watch or shoes were found on Lyons when he was arrested a short time after the robbery at his boarding house. The watch was- found in an old pile of lumber back of the Dunn building. Judge Millen found the defendant guilty, and fixed his punishment at two years in the periitentiory. He thought, however, that it was a case for executive clemency, at the proper time would be willing to make that kind a recommendation, J udge Millen instructed the grand jury Monday evening. The following are the members: Joseph Luther, W. B. Walden, James Empson, Samuel P. Thompson, Hank Ful ford, Thonras Massey. Marion Carroll, of Washington township, is bailiff for the grand Now that the grand jury is in

session, tue boys are all knownothings, or have' very poor memories. Mrs. Barrett, of SnVfthville, sued L. A. Underwood and wife for a share of 40 acres of land of the' late Hugh Hill, who was a brother to both Mrs. Barrett and Mrs Underwood. The land is near Harrodsburs. The jury brought in a verdict for the plaintiff.

The Horticultural Society of this

county will hold their annual fair in Ryan's" new building, opposite1 the county jail, on Oct. 10; 11 and 12, The price of admission will be 10 and 15 cents,and a good Show is promised'.- This is an enterprise that deserves the' encouragement and support of everybody inr the county. Hon. Cal Worrali is' the SecretatyVand' he will be pleased1 to furnish' a premium list, or give a-irj' further' information.'

TOWN TALK.

Gn test Monday morning at 10

O'clock Mis Lucy Wroodard, 6f thify

waid married to1 Mr. Fletcher B.Gwdner, a former student of -the University. The ceremofcey was' performed b the Rev. W. R. rfalstead in: the presence of the relatives and a few friendsV after which the young couple left? for Ann Arbor,- Mich., Where Mri Gardiner will take' a medical course in the University at that place,-

Pumping the People For Somc-

tliing to Print. If the number of students' of the University keep on increasing," as it undoubtedly will,it will be riecess arjr to m&ke special provisions for boarding them. As it is now rooms for students are scarce, and the lady students have had difficulty in securing proper quarters. A citizen suggests to' the Courier that it

would be a good idea 46 nut lib

buildings especially for students,

with furnished rootos, and to be iri

charge of a janitor. Such a building Would certainly pay a large percent on the investment, with the

rooms rented at a moderate rate.Of course such buildings should be

constructed by private enterprise.

It would be unfair for the University to take hold of this matter as the University at Greencastkj did, where, after the citizens there had con

tributed liberally toward the new

college buildings, dormitorys were

erected by the Univetsity authoritiesnd a large porf ion of patron

age in the way of boarding students

was taken from the citiizeus, and

consequently, a feeling of bitterness

has been engendered.

The Courier has been asked sev

eral times why colored children are

admitted to the white public schools

when they have a separate building

of their own supported by the gener

al school fund. Colored scholars are

admitted to the High School be

cause they had none of their own,

but why are a few of them scatter

ed among the whites of the lower

rooms, and Why only a few. If any, why not all, and abolish the colored

school altogether. Is it because

they are trying to work the colored

children in the white schools by de

grees, and thus avoid unpleasant

censure by turning them all in at

once. The Courier cannot answer

hese questions. The citizens' of

Bloomington, generally, do not give

much attentiou to school matters except to grumble at tike teachers.

Toey take no interest in the elec-

ion of trustees and will not likely

ake any interest in colored ohldren

question, until eventually, the

colored schools will be closed

and consolidated with the white

schools,and then they trill tear their

hair and swear that their children

shan't go to school especiarly in

warm weather.
