Boiling Brak.,n.p.

NEWARK. Ohio, June 13.-The brake
ment on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
are on general strike. The trouble is
not on account of wages, but simply the
result of reduction Of force on freight
trains. A general reduction was made,
removing the front brakemen of all
freight trains drawn by Mogul engines.
Efforts were made to send out trans
with two brakemen. The brakemen
claim that the state law requires one
man for every ten cars. Mogul engines
usually draw thirty cars. When they
saw two men would be required to man.
ege the trains, the refusal was made to
60 cut and trains were kept at G stand
still. An attempt by the officials to
send out q train resulted in the
brakemen congregating and pulling
pins, thus cutting the tram into twelve
parts and threatening injuries to per.
sons. One official drew a revolver and
threatened to shoot, and for some time
1t looked as though riot was imminent.
Two leaders Of the strike were arrested
and placed in jail, but were soon releas-
ed by the adYlce of the company's at
torney, for fear the confinement would
lead TO greater excitement and further
trouble. Conductors refused TO go out
without their regular crews, and thus
another obstacle was met and a number
Of regular trains were held. Last night
small train was sent out. There are
Sbout three hundred brekemen here and
all are determined.

ILLINOIS, June 10, 1885.
EDITORS NEWS: In the cars between
st. Louis and Paris to Indianapolis we
are IN company with Mrs. T. E. Ladd
and daughter. The day is without a
cloud and as far as the eye can see it is
corn, grain and grass. The wheel is GER
tainly poor on the whole, for while some
fields are good some are poor and some
l notice are moved for fodder. The
corn is about the same as in Lyon and
Usage counties. Some is cultivated
and is looking we'll some is small and
yellow and some is just being planted,
while in some fields the plows are seen
at work turning under weeds. On the
whole, Southern Illinois is not ahead of
Kansas as to crops, so far as can see.
Much depends upon good cultivation and
occasional rains to insure a crop. 1t
looks little odd to see corn six or eight
inches high on one side of field and
just being planted on the other side OF
the same field. But SO it is in Kansas,
Missouri and Illinois, and also over in
Indiana S.

The funeral of Mrs. Il. 81. Barber of
Chase county, which took place Thurs
day. was the largest that has been held
in that county for many years. Mrs.
Barber removed to Chase county
several years ago, and had
one of the finest stock farms, of 1900
acres, in the county. She lived at the
time of her death with F. T. Beardmo-e,
who managed the farm for her. The
casket in which she was inferred was
one of the finest that ever went out OF
Emporia. 1t was of solid chestnut, COW
cred with black broadcloth with gold
plating aud satin trimmings. The case
tor the casket was of heavy two-inch
walnut. Mrs. Barber was quite old and

THE REV DR. MAYO.

EDITOR News: Will you allow me to
add a suggestion to your correct, but
necessarily, brief report of DR.. Mayo's
great speech on Saturday evening last,
for 1t is something that should be pre-
served, especially by ell students look
ing to the department of teaching. !
wish, first, to state that your report of 1t
is the only one of use that has yet ap-
peared. My suggestion is, let as many
as can provide themselves each with q
copy of THE News OF Monday evening
and keep 1t as q refresher of the mind, for
any student who heard the lecture will,
with your report of 1t, be able TO go over
the whole ground. And If copies can
not be obtained in your Office let them be
sought among the citizens. Just now il
may appear to some that they cannot
forget it. This is a mistake. Nine.
tenths of those who heard 1t will forget
It unless they keep the notes
made at the time, or pro.
cure the report in THE NEWS. ]
write in the interests of all whom it may
concern. The language setting forth
the pivotal points Is unique. 1 asked q
dozen men who devoured every word oil
the lecturer, to tell me the exact Language
of the first three points laid down in his
reply to the question. "What is educa-
ton ?" and not one of them could state
it. l, and they knew it represented to
know, to do, to be. BIT suppose that
one were to use the same thought with
the above statement, would it not fall
short OF doing the same work set forth
in Education is, to know something
Ia do something, to be somebody" By
all means recommend the graduating
class, the alumni, and as many others as
can, to provide themselves each with {
copy of Mondays NEWS. Though moi
now a keeper of a school, have laid my
copy away for future use.

THE RESERVATIONS.

It Is indeed a matter of great disap-
pointment and regret to the many
friends of the Normal and faculty
tina. Profs. George Fowler and II. E
Sadler have handed in their resigna-
lions to the regents. The gentlemen
who have resigned stand among the most
scholarly men in the state, and the loss
TO the school will be difficult to repair
Never before has the entire faculty been
more popular with the students aud cit
liens than during the past term, and 1t
is matterOof serious regret that Prois.
Sadler and Fowler are going to
leave the institutions for which
they have spent years of labor that it
might be lifted up to its proper position
among the institutions of the state. Prof.
Fowler Is a graduate of Amherst college
and has been connected with the Nor
NAL six years. Prof. Sadler is a Yale
graduate and has been teaching in the
Normal for about five years.
A curious public is always greedy to
learn the causes of things, and there lie
nothing in this case to reflect dIscredit
on any of the faculty. There is no rea
son then, why the exact truth should not
be known.
The principles upon which the gentle
men sacrificed their positions are that
in matters of internal legislation involv-
ing the interests OF the several depart
ments, such as changes in the course of
study, distribution of work, creation of
new departments. ETC., the board ought
to hear the opinion of the faculty before
taking action, and that the gentlemen of
the faculty, like the ladies, ought to be
placed, as formerly, on an equal finan-
cIal basis.
The people of Emporia have the great
est confidence in President Taylor, and
he will undoubtedly receive hearty co.
operation in his efforts TO continue the
present high standard of the institution,
whose prosperity and progress is SO uni
versally recognized under its present
administration.
