Playing with Edged Tools.

The story which we print elsewhere,
of the killing of two boys in Ohio by
their school teacher, reads like ro-
nance; but all our readers who were
acquainted with the New England dis
trict school of forty years ago can
readily see how this affair occurred.
Two boys, both heavier and larger
than their teacher, made Il premeditat-
ed and cowardly attack upon him
when his back was turned, knocked
him down and jumped upon and pound
ed him. Feeling that they were likely
to kill him, the teacher i'll self-detense
drew Il murderOus knife and struck out
blindly, mortally wounding them both.
The teacher was badly bruised but not
seriously injured. He is Il young col
lege student, but he has what all COW
ards and ruflians are liable to meet
sooner or later, clear grit. Big boys
who harbor thoughts of whipping their
school teacher, and all parents who
have unruly boys, better take no
tice and govern themselves according

A Young Ohio SchOOImaSieT
Kills Two Of his Pupils.

The Cincinnati Enquirer prints the
details of terrible drama enacted III
an Ohio school room one day last week.
William c. Frazier, Il college graduate
of excellent family, undertook the
charge of a district school in the ham
let of Cumberland school which no
teacher had been able to govern. For
Il week he had no trouble. Then the
big boys proceeded to carry out the
usual custom of clicking the teacher"
After defying him in matter of dis
cipline, boy named Luce struck him
terrible blow in the face. The at
tack was followed up, other pupils
joined, and Frazier was thrown upon
his back and terribly beaten. He sue
ceeded in this extremity in drawing a
knife, which he used with terrible
effect. Luce was cut first. His wounds
were frightful, and he died two days
afterward. The teacher won the bat
tie, but at a terrible cost. Another
boy, John Hays, ran to the door, say
ing, "COme out here and we'll settle
you !" He had no sooner uttered the
words than he fell upon an ash pile
close to the door, and in less than five
minutes was dead from knife wounds
i'll the heart and stomach. Frazier
surrendered to the authorities, but
was released on bail He is badly in
iured about the head and body.

An Exciting Tragedy.

Shortly before 10 o'clock Sunday
when the people of UniontOwn, Pa,
were on the way to church, the town
was thrown into intense excitement by
the report that Capt. A. c. Mutt, cash
Ter of the Pennsylvania state treasury,
had been shot dead in room in Jen-
nings's hotel by n. l.. Dukes, a we'll
known member of the Fayette county
bar and member-elect of the Legisla-
ture. The high social and political
standing of both men gave such prom
inence to the affair that the hotel was
soon surrounded with excited citizens.
Capt. Mutt had just returned from Har-
risburg to spend the holidays with his
family, and left home with his nephew
Breckenridge, stating that he had some
business at the hotel with Dukes. On
the way there he told him that he had
received some infamous letters from
Dukes and wanted to have an under r.
standing with him. The two men went
to the hotel, and Mutt started mp to
Dukes room. Breckenridge followed,
but stopped on the stairs tn speak to
the hotel proprietoris son, named
Feathers. While cOnversing, scuffiing
was heard in the room and both ran up
to separate the cOmbatants, who were

There are extremes in either direc-
ton in the matter of an enforced oh
servance of Sunday. The one extreme
was illustrated in the first Sunday or
two in New York city under the Penal
Code, when hackmen were arrested for
driving passengers across the city, and
bOOtblacks for volunteering to 'shine"
their patrons extremities. The other
extreme is the opening of bar-roOms
and beer gardens, of theatres ambulance
halls, under no more restriction than
any other day in the week, and with
the opportunity of doing Il vastly larg-
er business. We have deprecated the
first of these extremes, and there is
even greater reason for deprecating the
second. If the working classes in the
community were as prompt to under
stand their rights as they are to resent
their wrongs, they would perceive that
the men who are trying to make Sun
day the same as any other day are no
| friends of theirs. 1t is IA short step
from Sunday as holiday to Sunday as
a working-day. Open shops on Sun
day mean overwOrked statesmen and
shop girls. Let the restrictions which
make Sunday in general a day of ces-
sation from work be broken down, and
the avarice of employers, the unthink-
ing demands of the public, and the
merciless eXactions of modern cOmpe-
titiOn will soon DO the rest. The need
of regular break in the oc-
equations which busy the hand and the
brain is not religious solely, but is
planted deep in the physical nature of
man; and experiment shows that it is
planted also in the nature of mans
brute servants, so that the horse for
example, which is worked six days in
seven, is capable of better work and
endures it for longer period than one
which is worked seven days in the
week.
There is need of common sense, of
tolerance, and of wise discrimination
in this. as in many other things. Soci-
ETY. and the law, or those who enforce
the law, should distinguish between
acts which may he literally regarded
as necessary and proper, or which at
least are harmless and interfere in no
way with the quiet, peace and comfort
of the public, and those who tend to
revelry, disorder and violence. Such
pulpit utterances as those of Mr.. Coll
yer ''In Defence of Sabbath Breaking
are to be deplOred chiefly because they
are certain to be given Il broader in
depreciation than the preacher intends
No Christian pulpit can afford to de
fend Sabbath breaking in the sense in
which the multitude understand it.

found on the floor clinched in a terrible
struggle. Breckenridge and Feathers
succeeded in parting them, when
Dukes drew revolver, saying, "You

he always likes the Boston Post. 1t is

Suing newspapers for damages is
generally an Improbable business.

expect them to come to trial, but they
bring them expecting to force the
newspapers to settle or make "A rctrac
ton. But the journalist often stands
trial, and if he is not awarded Il YER

nominal amount of few cents dam

brings a suit against another, as has
been done in the suit of Alexander
Troup, editor of the New Haven't Conn
Union, against the Register of that
city. The latter charged Troup with
an indecent exposure of his person in

day Il number of years ago. Troup is
