A little colored boy named Willie Hood, 12-
years of age, was tried in the criminal court
yesterday on the charge OF manslaughter in
killing Columbus w. Bailey, and the jury
rendered verdict Of acquittal after being
out twenty minutes The testimony showed
that on the afternoon of Aug. % last the lad

located in public alley back of Muellers
candy factory and that Bailey, by order of his
employer came out to drive him away. lie
struck Hood across the loins with q broom and

ing Bailey move toward him he picked up a
brick and threw It striking Bailey on the fore.
head, from the effect of which Bailey died on
Sept. 7. The Judge charged that 1t was a pub
lie alley and the boy was doing no wrong by
being there aud tho act of Bailey in striking
him was unlawful and If they believed that
the boy In throwing the bat did so merely to
defend and protect himself then he was not
guilty but If the throwing was done when he
was In no danger and free from pursuit then
he should be convicted rs indicted.

An Outrage bx the Police.

Yesterday police officers Henry and Seheigert
stopped two workmen of the Indiana Foundry,
as they were coming out of their shop, and
searched them FOR concealed weapons. but found
none. One of the managers Of the concern
asked them to search two of the strikers, who
were causing trouble in the neighborhood, but
the officers declined to do it, saying, IF you
want them searched swear out a warrant j.
i. Mothershead, who is the principal
owner of the works, made complaint to Superin-
tendent Lang last night, of the outrage, and he
said that the matter would be investigated. He
had given the officers instructions to take neu-
trial ground in connection with the strike there,
and to preserve the peace. Officer Hig-
gins, a day or two ago, was abusive
to Mr.. Frank Miller, who is connected
with the foundry, and charges were preferred
against him, and the police commissioners sus-
pended him pending an investigation. Mr..
Mothershead says that the strikers are giving
his workmen much trouble, that their lives are
in danger, and that he cannot get protection for
his business from the police.

The Great Leper Trlckster.

DR.. ODonnell gave his lecture on Chinese
leprosy to a few people in Circle Park, yesterday
morning, and then departed for St Louis. 1t is
evident that he is a crank of the most pro-
nounced type. The New York Herald, of a re-
cent date, says of him: "The tour across the
continent of the so-called DR. O'Donnell, Of
San Francisco, with his promising leper show, is
one of the most coolly impudent and transpar-
emit tricks ever perpetrated. This man, with a
few photographs, stopped day in a place and
talked Chinese leper, announcing living cases
of the disease as just behind him, on the way, in
a box-car. The lepers have kept this relative
position, until now. when he has arrived in
Washington without them, the truth begins to be
dimly suspected and the physicians are going to
examine DIR. ODonnell to sec if he should not
be pronounced insane. The fact is that his
lepers were taken away from him by the San
Francisco police; and the Pittsburg. Pa, Board
OF Health, which seems to be terribly exercised
over fears of his visiting that city. may take
heart of grace. 1t is astonishing what a scare
this man has created through the country, when
the slightest investigation would have disclosed
the truth

indianapolis saturday Review.

There are signs of a brighter outlook for the
country. The evidences of this prediction lie
chiefly in the fact that in the season. profess
sional base ball clubs are disbanding. On Mon
day the Fort Wayne and the Saltwater clubs. of
the Northwestern League, disbanded on account
of financial embarrassment. The Terre Haute
club must follow suit, unless a debt Of two
thousand dollars can be lifted. It will hardly
be lifted, Base ball has descended from the POI
sItion it occupied in the list of American sports,
principally from the fact that it has gone into
the hands of people who care more for gate-mon
ey than they do for the American and Christian
Sabbath. Almost everywhere Sunday games
are played, which has the effect to reduce week
day receipts below expenses in most cases. The
large mass Of people will not patronize on week
days an institution which sets at defiance the
laws and customs of the country which recog-
nizes the Sabbath as something other than a day
for hul-ights, horse-racing and base ball.
