Bartlett Tuesday, in Justice Court ant
| garnisheed the School Board, G r. Strubl,
and L. B. Nelson, Cashier of the Saving!
Bank. As we understand it, Mr.. Bart
lett was not sued for any of his persona
matters but on account of some affairs
growing out of his doing kind and
neighhorly act for a friend. He will go or
with !, the superintendent Of our new
school building all the same, -notwith-
standing The thrusts made against him by
Marshalltown papers, architects, &c.
and we believe will give the district fine
specimen Of workmanship.

| We take pleasure in announcing TO the
public at large, that the following young
ladies and gents viii give us a rare treat,
Friday evening, April 5th:
Misses Jennie Moore, Della Coates, and
Florence Kirby; and Messrs. r.. G. Pal
mer, Clint. Wagner, Chas. VIM, Walter
Galley, Winnie Appellate, Chas. New
conner, and Jim Cannon.
They propose playing that laughable
and interesting drama, Handy Andy.
They have been practicing the said play
for several weeks, and now have it about
ready to put onsthe boards. All those
that miss this will be sorry. Adpis-
sion, is and 20 cents. Proceeds for the
Cemetery side walk.
Among the many Helps" now fur
nished to Sunday School Teachers and
workers, we think the National Sunday
School Teacher published at Chicago, is
certainly one of the best. 1t is now in its
thirteenth volume and We think has con-
stantly been improved from the begin
ming, although it was always a first-class
publication of its kinds. The editor Mr..
NJ G. Hazard, it will be remembered, took
quite az active part in the Sunday School
Convention held in Toledo little over a
year ago, and not only won many friends
here, but added much to the interest Of
the convention by his practical remarks.
His magazine is positive and valuable
aid, to any one engaged in s. S. work who
will read it,
The legislature passed'a bill last Thurs
day which we believe will prove TO be a
good thing for the State. We refer TO
the bill limiting tie appropriation for the
support of the State University, to $40.
600 90 per annum. This will give liber-
al and definite sum to the University and
cut off an immenseo amount of log rolling
and political trading which has heretofore
been INDUCED in, in order to get as large APP
preparation as possible. 1t seems to us as
if the friends of the University ought to
be well satisfied with the sum, as it is
virtually giving an Endowment of
5000 600. or really more Than that, for We
presume there are few Colleges or Uni
versities in the land which are able to
realize clear'of all expenses ten per cent.
on their endowment.
In the case Of Small, convicted of
murder by lot Of fools in Tama county,
whose brains are geese brains, alluded
to by Judge Smith in his letter to The Times
The Times says let Small get change
of venue and come to Marshall coun-
ty for trial, and if jury can be
found to convict him, we can find men
who viii lynch the jury. Small and his
associates, as Judge Smith says, relieved
this part of the country Of despradoes,
and to think that he should be convicted
now by lot of fools with out any ev-
idence, is an outrage on civilization.
Come to Marshall county, Mr.. Small, If
YOU can, for trial; there are no goose
brains to 20 on jury. Times.
1t is said that
mo rogue e'er felt the halter draw,
With good opinion Of the aw.''
We presume the editor of the Times
and Judge" Smith begin to tremble in
their boots. They doubtless think if
crimes committed years ago are going to
receive their just reward at this late day,
there is trouble ahead for them, and they
will have to answer for some of their man
fold sins and transgressions, and SO they
try to abuse and villify jury which rem
ders a verdict in accordance with the tes-
timony. We have nothing to say Us to
the merits of the case, but we think it is
beneath the dignity of Judge" and
Journalist to talk about lynching Jury,
and abuse Sheriff, simply because they
do their duty as they see it, and in opposi-
i've to public opinion.
