The case Of Mrs. E. s. Manning against
George Brown, N E. Weaver and II. B.
Lowe ct al. was taken up carly Thurs
day morning and went to the jury at Z
O'Clock that evening The jury at a late
hour returned sealed verdict which
was opened by the court last Friday
and found to be in favor of Mrs. Man
ming.
This suit has been pending for nearly
three years and has excited much noto-
riety. 1t involved the title to about 80
head of valuable cattle, 1t went TO the
supreme court at one time on a question
of law and the point iSas there decided
for the plaintiff. We learn from parties
who were present yesterday that the
whole trial was scene of great interest
throughout, and was conducted in a
most earnest and spirited manner by the
attorneys on both sides. Messrs. Sterry
& Scdgwick, Buck & Feighan and L..

The Normal Social.

Pursuant To announcement, large
number of people, both students AMI cit
iZemA, gathered mt the Normal Thurs
andIfare we'll social. II seemed cmint ntly
proper that after the routine work of the
school had closed: when examinations,
class exercises, essays, oraIinns, meeting
of the Alumni and the other duties incl
dent to commencement week were dis
posed of, that the students should DE
given the opportunity of gathering once
more within the walls of their alma
mater TO exchange congratulations and
say farewell before severing the
pleasant ties which have bound them
together From 8 O'Clock until a late
hour the parlors, assembly room and
halls of the building were thrOnged with
gay promenaders and groups of students
and visitors, all enjoying the occasion in
whatever manner fancy dictated. Itwas
the last time that many of the students
will have the opportunity of meeting
on such an occasion, and the kindly eX-
pressinns of good will between those
who parted last evening probably tai
meet no more at the Normal, bore testi-
mony To the warm friendship existing
between them.
In the parlor We noticed II large, hand
some frame inclosing in the center the
photograph of Prof Welch. and grouped
around were the photographs of the
members of the class of 1882. This at
tracled liberal share of attention from
the visitors.
During the evening Misses Tucker
and Dudley were called upon the rOs-
trum and presented with the prizes
awarded in Miss Hoxie's drawing class,
as mentioned in yesterdays News.
The only thing TO mar the pleasure of
the evening was the failure of the ladies
of the Christian church TO adequately
estimate the capacity of Normal STU
dents for the consumption of ice cream
and strawberries. The ice cream gave
out before the demand was more than
half supplied, and those who were lit
tle late in seeking refreshments were
obliged to content themselves with lem
onade only. We were informed by those
who had the matter in charge that they
found it impossible to obtain sufficient
quantity of strawberries, rs dealers
could not possibly fill their orders.
Notwithstanding this, the gross receipts
amounted to over $50, at least half of
which was profit.
The social was one of genuine enjoy
ment, and those who were present
seemed SO 10th TO part that it was nearly
IL O'Clock when the company dispersed
and the final faTeWeils were spoken by
the students who leave the city to-day
for their homes in different parts of the
state al--.-

To the Editor Of the journal:

the terrible tragedy which has Just dis
graeed Lawrence and the state. A gen.

dispatch Saturday, he would rather il

For Lawrence stands for Kansas, and tie
best IN Kansas, and this terrible deed

wolves score Of criminals instead oil
three and compromises the good name
q hundred fold more.
J on speak of it as taking '.the law in
its own hands, There was no law
about it,. II was simply the violation OF
law, and that the law OF murder.
That the men deserved their fate, does
not change the matter one iota- EXCEPT
among savages, the Vilest man has q
right 10 a regular trial, and \ regular
process. You say you 'tare sorry il was
deemed necessary Il was not necess-

such things, except in the single ease
where crime is so rampant that Law can

done in an open. orderly way, and not
after the manner Of the midnight Hssas-
sin, These wretches were safe IN Jail /:
their guilt was clear; their punishment

few darker days come TO Lawrence than
this. She can clear her skies only by
bringing TO justice The perpetrators Of
this dark deed, ard punishlng them to
