When the pier was reached they quickly

Three Hundred Cases In which Frauds
Have Been Perpetrated Upon the Gov.
eminent by sharpers n Southern Ar
kansas.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, April e.-The atten-
tOn of the Interior Department has been
called to the gigantic swindle which has
been perpetrated on the Government by a
few sharpers in southern Arkansas. The in
vestigation of the matter now in progress in
La Fayette, Columbia, Union and Ouachita
counties, has implicated fifteen persons and
unearthed 800 cases in which frauds have
been perpetrated. Under the graduation
act, passed by Congress in ls45, the pur-
chasers of lands in the sections should have
secured title at 1219 cents per acre.
Through miscOnstructiOn of the law
many who purchased large tracts of the
Government lani were required to pay fifty
cents per acre. A great many persons to
whom this land was sold have died, and the
whereabouts of the heirs Is unknown. The
parties implicated recently, through fraud,
secured letters of administration on the es-
tates, and presenting the claims to the
United States Land Office, secured the
S711 cents overcharged by the Government
In many instances letters of administration
have been procured on the estates of per-
sons alleged to be deceased, who are alive
and reside in the State.

Murdered in a Street Car.

NEWPORT, KY, April s.-A sensation
was caused here yesterday morning by a
tragedy in which two citizens of this place
figured as principals. John S. Cummings,
q clerk in the First National Bank, was
seated in street car, on his way to the
bank, and when within few blocks of his
destination man hurriedly boarded the car
and walked up to where Cummings sat
drew pistol and exclaimed: ''You villain,
l have you at last" The man fired three
shots, killing Cummings instantly. The as
sailant then coolly placed the pistol in his
pocket and said he was ready to surrender
himself. The man was taken into custody
and at the station house recognized as a
respected citizen of this place. He declined
to make any statement further than that he
was pleased at what he had done. 1t is be-
lieved that he killed Cummings in revenge
for the ruin of his daughter.

lar concerts, entertainments and lectures,
at nominal fee, and the privilege Of join
ing the classes at greatly reduced rates;
also the use OF the gymnasium, with tuition
in fencing, gymnastics by a skilled in
structor, and in summer the swimming
bath at small charge.
Besides the members there are great
many students who merely attend the
classes, which constitute very remarka-
BILE educational agency. There are, at
present, $500 individual students, receiv-
ing instruction in something like lao
classes, on the ordinary subjects Of educa-
ton: and the various branches Of science
are taught. and technical instruction is
given in all sorts of trades. These classes
are presided over by thoroughly compe-
tent teachers. The technical classes re-
ceive instruction from experts on their
various subjects. The success OF these
classes has been commensurate with their
size. At the technical examinations the
students (Mr Clarke assures us) have
distinguished themselves above those from
any other institute or technical college in
the kingdom. This is especially true Of
the plumbers, the carriage building and
the watch making classes; while the pho
tographic class carried off all the medals
offered in that subject.
And the morals Of the boys are not neg
lected, for Mr.. Hogg has q Bible class on
Sunday afternoon, attended by between 500
and 600 boys and many men, and Mrs.

Workers Union of about 230 members
who engage in evangelistic work among
the members, in open-sir preaching, and
in supplying Sunday-schools with teach
ers. There has been no attempt at organ

man shows an interest in religious matters
he is asked with what denomination he has

WEDNESDAY EVENING, APRIL 8.
THE SMALL BOy-wHAT SHALL WE
DO WITH HIMc

The small boy IS always with US and is
continually makirg himself felt in one
way or another. He may be said to be 9
power in the land, and to be becoming
more and more SO, as he grows more nu-
merous and assumes, from year to year,
larger proportions. The lad who has
good and wise parents and is subjected to
a wholesome system of Home Rule" is
not likely to get beyond proper bounds
in his relations to the general public. but
the boy who is "boss" in the house of his
parents is generally pretty sure to be law
less and troublesome whenever he gets
beyond the premises. Many peo-
pie already know this to their sorrow.
This Is the small boy who generates dis
turbance and leaves track of devastation
and fire wherever be goes. This is the
kiui Of young person We must do some
thing with, by way OF recognition Of the
proiuseness with which he does something
for us. This is the lad who needs public
attention His nose is pointed in the
wrong direction and his brain and his
hand are arrayed in hostility to public
morality, peace and safety. He is not
villain in embryo and need not necessarily
become one in development; and if
community will only give HIM
halt the attention which he gives
to community it will but sub
serve its own interests-thst is to say, if
the attention is of the right sort-kind,
sensible, practical, traternal, helpful and
educational. If society will give the small
boy, who has no anchor of his own to keep
him in the right place or no rudder to
guide his craft in the right direction, some
help and some guidance, society will save
its posterity, if not its present generation,
a great deal of trouble and expense. For
the small boy can be Influenced, easily, by
wise appliances and if his brain and hands
are kept busy with innocent and honest
employments he will be sure to 60 in right
ways and finally to come into the right
haven.
