Burr Barbour Convicted.

Burr Barbour, under indictment for stealing
clothes from Joseph Quinn, No. 274 North Mis-
sissippi street, when brought into the Criminal
Court yesterday at first offered to plead guilty
and take one year. Judge Norton, while the
jury that had been impaneled waited, wouldn't
consent, but was willing plea of guilty to
give him three years. BarbOur's attorney
wouldn't consider the judges offer and pro-
ceeded to throw his client ON the mercy of the
jury, withsa statement that it was Barbour's
first often Sc and refining away his guilt with
citing multitude of mitigating circumstances.
Prosecutor Robbins then stood mp and told so
much about Barbour that after retiring for five
minutes the jury returned verdict sending
him north for four years. Mr. Barbour was
somewhat discouraged at the wInd-up of his
little affair. bat Captain Campbell, who knows
Burr as an expert performer, thinks he got off at
least fifty per cent. better than lie deserved and
that eight years would have been the proper
caper.

John F. Johnston & Co., manufacturing chem
lists, No. Cd South Pennsylvania street, made an
exhibit of their fluid extracts, spirits of nitre,
and other pharmaceutical speoaltes. In addi-
ton TO these, they made a handsome showing
of their popular anti-patent remedies which are
put up IN elegant and appropriate styles with
the retailers address printed on labels and
wrappers The formula of each of these reme-
pensing with all mystery, and leading to a re-
form that should in time do away with the
quackery of patent medicines. 1t is crafty
ing fact that the business OF this house Is rapidly

fragrant weeds ia not only familiar to Indiana

Public School Education.

Gov. Butler makes a practical rec ON
mendation concerning the management
of common schools in Massachusetts,,
which might be followed with good re-
suits in other States:
Restrict the branches taught in the pri-
mary schools by law specifically to spelling,
reading, writing, grammar, arithmetic, geog-
raphy, history-pr the United States
and REQUIRE that those shall be taught upon
the same system, TO the same grade OF schol-
ars in every common school in the Com
monwealth. When the scholar can show
by an examination, that he is well grounded
in the elementary English branches, then
let him be admitted to a school OF higher
grade, where line drawing Tor industrial pur-
poses shall be taught, bookkeeping, algebra,
geometry the rudiments Of the Latin and
French languages, chemistry, physics, with
natural philosophy in rudimental degree,
and there q common school education
should stop.
We entirely concur in the opinion
that if the State is to provide money fol-
any instruction beyond that which Ii
merely rudimentary and essential to ev
cry child, then let it lay out the extra
sum in such manner as to give training
which can be put to actual use in earn
ing a living. One hundred boys anC
girls want the practical sort of instruc
ton, where one scholar wants the classic
and mathematics of the college.
