"IT'S ENGLISH, YOU KNOW"
The Manner in Which the Garden City
Cathedral School Is Conducted.

Special to the Indianapolis journal.
NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-The continuance of the
Cathedral School of St Paul has become a sub
ject of discussion. This institution is part of
the Garden City project of the late Alexander
T. Stewart, and the singular manner in which it
is being carried gives rise to different guesses
as to the real intention A verse in the topical
song of current burlesque, Its English, you
know, so English" is this week devoted to the
school, account of the entirely English style
of the concern, which has also come to be known
as Angomania Hall. Nothing American is per-
mitted in the conduct of its affairs an1 the
closest aping of English manners by our dudes
is weak and crude compared with this great
achievement. There is president or principal,
but head master. The classes are not desig-
mated by the years of their graduation,
after the way known in the United
States but each of the six is called
form The two terms of the school year are
the Easter nalf and the Christmas half The
vacations are recesses. The baggage of the
pupils is received in luggage department., the
cars in which the trunks come are mentioned in
printed notice as vans, and in many other
ways semblance of English life is maintained.
The school is under the official control of Bishop
Littleiohn, of the Protestant Episcopal Diocese
of Long Island, and to him the British aspect is
by many attributed. while others impute it to
the Widow Stewart and few, taking the con-
version of tho Stewart Women's Hotel into
purely business enterprise, declare that the
peculiar management of st. Paul's school will
quickly result in an abandon ment of it as phi
lanthropic establishment
The school building is big, beautiful structure
in stone and brick. English gothic in archi-
lecture, and second only to the Stewart memo
rial church, or Cathedral of the incarnation as
a feature of Garden City 1t can house 500 bows
for military exercises, and the chambers for
college in the land. The scheme of the dead
merchant included a school for girls and one for
divinity students, but neither has yet been
erected, ard it is surmised that they will not be-
This idea is based on the small success thus far
of st. Pauls School There has been one term
ending last June, and only thirty boys were
domciled, including fourteen who received
maintenance and instruction gratuitously in
return for singing in the Cathedral chorus
The next term will begin on the 23rd of this
month. seemingly genuine effort is being
made to recruit pupils, especially from the
wealthy families Of New York and in circles
wherein the Anglomaniac features might be
supposed to prove attractive The school expert
ment is costing about hundred thousand dollars
a year out of the Stewart estate, besides the
permanent investment.
Head Master Charles Sturtevant Moore has
written an open letter to Bishop LitAeiohn.

MURDER AT GRELNVILLE, O.
William Wise Killed by John Essick-Con-
ficting Reports Regarding the Matter.

Special to the Indauapolis Journal
GREENvILLE, o., Sept 5.--Ths little city is
again the scene of another murder, and our
citizens are once more aroused. It has been but
about two months since the Osgood mob, riot
and killing Of Mrs Fanny Graham. This
evening about 7:3O o'clock William Wise,
son-in law of John Moher, but living
apart from his wife, called at the home
of Mr.. John Essick, a quiet and well-known
plasterer, and a married citizen of this city, in
the extreme eastern part and, as Wise claims,
on business in regard to trade with Mr.. Essick
for some land Mrs. Essick and her boy were
in the house when Wise called and in the course
of conversation Mrs Essick says dispute arose
between them, and the lady walked to an adjoin.
ing room for postal to prove her remarks, and
when in the bed room, Wise attacked her and
attempted to throw her down. She screamed
loudly and quickly Mr.. Essck rushed in from
the back yard, grabbed his double -barreled shot
gun, and advanced toward Wise, who was by
that time slipping out the front door, and just as
he got in the yard fred the whole charge enter
ing the back, making a hole two inches in
diameter little below the shoulder
blade, hear the spinal column Wise
after suffering the greatest agony, died
at twenty minutes past 10 o'clock tonight. Mrs
Essick tells the same story as her husband, in
substance. She says Wise insulted her in the
bedroom, she screamed and soon John rushed
in and fired the fatal shot in defense of himself
and family He would have shot him in
the house, but his crippled hands dis
abled him from cooking the gun.
The dying statement of Mr. Wise
substantially denies that of Mr.. and Mrs Essick.
showing that he went to the house for business
purpose only, had no trouble with Essick, and
regarded his wife as respectable woman; made
no advances whatever toward her, and walked
out as fast as he could the first moment he saw
Essick with gun. According to orders, the
officers arrested Mr.. Essick, and he is now in
the city prison awaiting examination.
