in the discussion that neither teachers nor
pupils had any degree Of interest in their work.
Suppose We consider the other side OF the ques-
ton. Suppose you have charge Of school OF
certain number OF pupils Of all ages and all
degrees Of advancement. and suppose you
keep record Of the number Of visits made to
the school by parents. Suppose ct the end OF
the term you wish to determine the amount Of
interest the parents have in the school. For
want OF any other standard you take the visit
ors register. You divide the number Of pupils
by the number Of visits made. You find that
you have had one visit for forty pupils. Each
pupil has received one-fortieth Of parents
visit, and that is all he has bad in three months
What is the amount OF interest taken by the
parent
Or take the same problem In q simpler form.

In the Circuit Court the case Of George
Brydle VS.. Slas Whitney was tried by jury and
a verdict rendered OF five hundred dollars for
plaintiff and against the defendant. whitney,
AS near as We can get at the matter, this was
an action to recover damages for the loss of a
wife, who had abandoned Brydle and took to
Whitney. She may have been worth the money
to Whitney, but We are inclined to the opinion
that Brydle got a good deal more than she is
worth to him, unless 1t be to use her for the
purpose OF putting up jobs on his runaway
neighbors. Leave was granted Whitney to move
for new trial on the first dav of the next
term.

The Woman's Crusade was started at Manistee
without any very marked effect, until one day
they called at q beer-saloon, the proprietor Of
which took occasion to throw beer over the
ladies and otherwise treat them with indecorum.
This conduct had the effect of arousing the
men into action. the result OF which is de-
termination to close all the saloons and drink
ing places. One thousand five hundred persons
signed tie pledge in day or two. The whole
community seems to have been cemented to-
gether for the purpose Of closing up all drink
ing holes, which is being pretty generally done
On Friday last an elderly man by the name
OF Brant was brutaly murdered by two young
men named Benona Hall and Sven Lewis
who 1--we in the vicinity of Sister Lakes In
Keller township. The circumstances as we
learned them we're these Itappears that young
Hall and Lewis had been to Dowagiac and had
been drinking pretty freely, In fact had got
drunk, and were returning home IN a wagon
and overlook Brant on the road. They asked
hun to ride, but he seeing their intoxicated con-
dition declined, whereupon they got out, knock
ed him down and beat him, threw him into the
wagon ana drove on Until tuey caue W einaii
rivulet of water. where they compelled him to
get out and wash himself, after which they
gave him another beating and compelled him to
get int the wagon again. After proceeding
short distance further they then either knocked
or threw him out. drove the wagon over him
and left BIN in the road. Brant was soon after
found by man named Hill who took him to
kee!er where he died from his injuries the
next day. Hall and Lewis we're promptly
taken into custody, and are now in jail awaiting
trial IN the Circuit Court. They should be
promptly tired, and set to work for the State.
We shall expect to see an attempt made to
use the drunk as a mitigating circumstance
In our opinion, and in the opinion of all right
thinking people. it aggravates the crime, for II
they had been sober the outrage would not
have Teen committed but being drunk they
were in a condition TO do any violence.
We would like to know just how much OF ar
accessory before the fact the man is, who sold
these young men the liquor on which they be-
came intoxicated WHAT punishment should be
melted out to him or them?
