DAYTON, KY.-There was not first
class riot in the neighborhood Of the
school building last night, as people In
that vicinity had reason to believe. The
noise was. caused by the innocent indi-
yiduals who have our educational inter-
ests in their hands. They "whoOped upo
things generally, and pranced around
with frivolity that would have done
credit to our old "guyuscutis" in its
palmiest days. 1t was noticeable that
men that knew the least did the most
talking, and those that could have said
something of interest relapsed into a
state Of silent disgust. The Board
took several steps toward getting up
tirst-class lawsuit, concluded that 1T
was not yet prepared to select a prlncl-
pal, and adjourned. Too much talent
wearing on the members of the board,
and several of those who have expert
ence and capacity suited to such posi-
hon looked as If they were wishing
themselves out of the muddle. There
are several matters connected with this
business that we shall take occasion to

week.
