fitness for the work assigned. Parents
who have children of school age, who are
to work during the day, should
see that they attend one Of these schools

A dispatch from Washington says :
MIR. Scoviile not visiting Guiteau to-day,

night, enclosing 4 statement addressed to
the public. 1t is as follows:
MIR. SCOvILLE-I had high fever last
night, the worst have had since was

sistant should not be able to go into court
this week any way. Did you see the
president If not, see him at once and
get what time We want. He is bound to
help me and he will help me if you stick to
him. Talk to him just as would. Thirty
days to plead and my book are the objects to
be pressed now. Ask Mr.. Merrick if We can
not compel Bailey to loan me his note
book. If not, give me man and l will
60 ut it again. think l can redictate it
in two weeks. He ought to get possession
of Bailey's book in some way. Do not
waste any effort on trying to prove my
actual insanity it would disgust the court
and jury. Legal insanity is all claim,
and that is just as real as actual l want
to use the leading Stalwarts met in New
York last fall in my defense. This and
my own testimony is about all the defense
l have, as the law is with US, the law of
insanity and the law of jurisdiction. See
me rs soon as you can. l want to get my
book out at once some way. C. G.

His statement is as follows:
To tile Public-I wish to warn all per-
sons to attempt no violence on me, rs
they will probably be shot dead if they do
by the officials having me in custody.
The United States government is bound to
protect me and give me fair trial, and
the honor of the American people is at
stake for my personal protection. 1 un-
derstand this bitterness is kept alive by
certain friends of the late president who
expected office from him. They are mad
about his removal, and it is irresponsible
characters Of this kind that are sending
silly and impertinent letters anonymously
to my attorney. These people had better
drop politics and 60 into other business.
