The rumor that Mr. Willis Rude was
against Catholics in the Public Schools is
falsehood and people should be very care
ful how they circulate reports about mem
bers of the School Board. Mr. Rude is one
of the best members of the Board and holds
the esteem of all his colleagues and con-
stituents. Willis is not Rude enough to do
any thing mean.
Prof ]. w. Hall would like to run the
High School all by himself. Previous to
Mr. Bcst's administration the Hall clique
had had everything their own way. When
Mr. Best took the management of affairs he
politely informed Mr. Hall that he was
''the boss" This did not suit the ego
tistcal mind of Mr. Hall, and he has been
using every available means since Mr..
Best's administration to oust him; but by
good luck the School Board is composed of
men who have frustrated all of the COW
ardly designs.

BLuD BLup!-Last night about o clock
man named Jacobs accompanied by his
sister, went to the barber-shop on Sixth
and Main streets of Billy Brown, and
called that gentleman to the door and de-
manded OF him that he. should make an
apology to her for flirting Billy denied
ever having INDUCED in any such nefarious
actions. Then Jacobs Immediately became
furious and pulled his weapon which vas
shotgun that had about two years cult
walton. Things began to look Serious in
| fact, the air was fragrant with hair-ol and
barberous blood. Jacobs still persisted that
Brown should make the apology and Billy
still stoutly denied the charge and refused
to plead guilty. Mr.. Jacobs was about to
send Brown to that place where BARRIERS
never get into "scrapes " when his sister
interfered and said Billy wasn't the man.
After few minutes parley tranquility
again reigned supreme, and the mat
ter was thought to be all over
with. Not 80, however, with Jacobs. He
returned this morning to the shop armed
with blunderbuss, and looked like some
deserter from Breatliitt County, and said
he was "a bad member of the Diamond
Dancing Circle, the gang who don't do
nothing but feast on human gore and eat
their meals in slaughter-houscs. He called
Henry Matt, Billy's boy, to the door, and
shook his pistol under his nose and scared
all the German language out of him by ac-
cusing him Of the same charge preferred
against Billy. Henry Matt was scared so
bad that all he could say was: "Ic hab de
nicht sact; Ic wasn't nich fund de Kal,"
and Jacobs went off threatening to bring
down his crowd and clean out that end of
the town.
