srEINcFIELD. Ill, May 1S.-Considsrable
excitement has been occasioned here by the
circulation of a report that City Treasurer
Preston Wright was a defaulter. Wright
has held the Office of City Treasurer for the
past five years continuously. AT the last
election he was not candidate, and George
CASTOR, the Den ocratic candidate, was
elected. 1t was claimed that CASTOR was in
eligible as he had not lived in the city
year. and Wright refused to turn over the
books and funds. The Council decided Cas-
ton eligible. and ordered Wright 10 turn over
the Office and appurienancee. Five different
days were designated by Wright for tia
transfer, but he always failed to mate Il alize
and this delay gave rise to the suspicion that
he was short. An examination OF the Comp
troller's bank account show wed the shortage TO

Brickmakers' Strike - Car shops Threat
ened.
DETROIT, May 1s-A.strike has been begun
by the laborers in the brickyards at Spring
Wells which may result in considerable
trouble. This morning the strikers massed,
800 strong, and went to the various brick
yards demanding that work be stopped. Au-
gust Little refused and was disarmed and
shaken up, but not seriously injured. At
Smith & Smittdrels the strikers cut the bslt
on the fiywheel, preventing further working
of the machinery. There was some trouble
at Hall It VOLTS before the men quit. The
wages now paid are as follows: Lowest
prices, lsborers. S1.25 per day, house rent
free; by the month, others get from $50 to
$40, with the same privileges. The strikers
demand an advance. However, just how
much they want, or what they want. is q
matter of conjecture, as they have made no
formal demands.
This afternoon has been quiet in Spring
Wells. Tie claims of the strikers are assum-
ing definite shape. They assert they are
obliged to work from a. IN. TO D. M,
twenty.six days in the month, at a rate OF
pay ranging from $50 to $50 On the other
hand. some OF the bosses claim that this S32
to $50 does not include house rent which is
thrown in gratis. The men deny that house
rent is given them, and want their money
rain or sun. During the trouble this morn.
ing TIE son of Mr.. Wolfs, proprietor OF one
the brickyards, was severely beaten By two
strikers, for whose arrest warrants have been
issued.
1t Is stated the men will prevent all WORK
about the yards tomorrow. Arrangements
have been made to quell any disturbances
that may arise to.night. The brickmakers at
meeting this afternoon decided TO employ
more men until the trouble is settled salts.

The Michigan Central car shops and the

Baby Patriots. The approach of
the Fourth of July moves US to re-
mind mothers and fathers alike that
boys may and should be boys all over
on that day, without mourning the
slightest risk of the accidents which
have so often served to fill the minds
of parents with dreadful forebodings
of the occasion. Few boys Of the ages
with which BABYHooD is especially
concerned should be entrusted with
fireworks; but it would be from all
the celebrations of the day which their
Older brothers and sisters and neighbors
enter into. It is worthy Of little
study and forethought to make ample
provision for their enjoyment in the
way of noise making, since SO many
harmless paper-snapers, pop guns, etc,
are obtainable. A. few decorations of
flags, bunting, Chinese lanterns, and a
little sort Of programme for different
parts of the day, which should include
the participation of father and mother,
will afford for them out of all proper
ton to the small effort expended Let
their earliest recollections be associated
with the Fourth of July as we children
OF larger growth remember it the
best festival in the whole year, the
peculiar flavor of it most eagerly an
ticipated and longest remembered.

Tribune Friday evening witnes-
ed the completion, of another sue
cessful year in the Howe High School
of this city. Six more young people
with bright and susceptible intellects
have been cast upon the world from
the friendly walls of the school room
to decide for themselves their future
course in life. The number of gradu-
ates, this year, is larger than any
time since the year 1875.
The main room of the Howe High
School building was beautifully adorn-
ed with evergreens and flowers.
The room was filled to over-fowing
with attentive listeners. Many were
turned away unable to gain admittance.
The exercises opened with music by
the quartette composed of Messers
Lockwood and Wood, and Misses Ir-
win and Voyer. Miss Lottie Steven
son delivered the Junior Salutatory-
a most excellent production, admirably
rendered Each graduate delivered an
essay or Grafton, in the following order
and upon the following subjects
Frank Starr read an essay on 'sCrom-
well. Miss Celia Compton delivered
an Grafton on Labor Albert Brack-
inreed spoke about ''Roads." Robert
E. Mennet discoursed upon emusic in
the United States" Miss Belle Mos
her treated of the "Conficts of Mind"
Max Whitney delivered the class
valedictory upon the subject of ''Gov-
eminent" The subject-matter of each
was good. The delivery of part of
them could have been improved. But
we are not inclined to criticise. The
delivery is but technical quahfca-
tion-the matter is the measure of
mental calibre
The exercises were interspersed with
vocal music, by the quartette or part
thereof. Master Arthur Demarais
and Miss Lottie Lynn, each rendered
a vocal selection, which were heartily
by the audience.
Prof. Goggins is entitled to more
than an ordinary amount of credit for
this most successful termination of
the school year. 1t must be remem
bered that he begun his labors under
most unpropitious circumstances, and
after the first term was well under
way, But be has brought discipline
out of confusion-a bright success out
of what promised to be dismal failure.
