Hermann.

One of the most puzzling tricks per.
formed by the great Hermann. who ap-
pears at the Newmarket theatre to.mor-
row evening, is that in which he lifts a
young lady some feet from the stage and
leaves her in mid air unsupported, as
far as the spectators are able to discern.
In that condition she walks back and
forth in the air, dances, whirls through
hoops and jumps skipping rope, thus
demonstrating apparently that neither
wires from above nor rods at the sides
are used. The question is how is she
supported?

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER l6, 1889.
NO SEPARATE SCHOOLS,

A decision was rendered last Saturday
in the District Court at Leavenworth,
Kan, which settles the question about
tho admission of Colored children in the
public schools of that city, and which
will go far towards settling the question
in whole state of Kansas. John James,
Colored citizen of Tonganoxie. sent his
two children to the public school at that
place, taught by lady teacher, who re-
fused to receive them as pupils and sent
them home. An appeal was taken to
the board of education of the district
and they sustained the action of the
teacher, but offered to provide q sepa-
rate school for Colered children, which
offer was refused, and suit in Court
for peremtory writ of mandamus COM
polling the Board of Education to ad-
NIT the Colored children was begun;
shat was granted by Judge Crozier, Sat-
urdsy who rendered the following de.
cision:
THE Board of Education claims to
have power to establish separate schools
for white and Colored, under a section
of the State law which says: The dis
trict schools established under the pro-
visions of this act shall at all times be
equally free and acceptable to all the
children resident therein over S and un-
der 81 years old, subject to such reeula-
tions as the district board may pre-
SCRIBE The last clause of the section is
SO comprehensivein its terms that, were
it an open question, it would be difficult
to say what the board might do, pro-
vided they acted in good faith. for the
best interest of the school; but, whatever
else they may do, it has been decided
by the Supreme Court Of the State that
they may not maintain separate schools
for white and Colored children unless
clearly authorized to do 30 by tie Legis-
lature."
The Judge says in his opinion: 'If
the board has power to establish sepa-
rate schools for children of African de-
scent, then the board has the power to
establish separate schools for persons of
Irish or German descent, and if it has
the power because Of color to establish
separate schools for black children, then
it has the power to establish separate
schools for red-headed and blonde chill
dren. I do not think the board has any
such power. The decision of the su-
preme Court in the case of the Board of
Education Of the City Of Ottawa, city
Of the second class, whereby the board
was compelled to admit Colored chill
dren to all public schools, is sustained
by all authorities cited, and, in my judg.
ment, might have been further fortified
by reference to section 343 of the
crimes act, which says: If any Of the
regents or trustees Of any State univer-
atty, college. or other school of public in
struction, or the State Superintendent,
shall make any distinction on account of
race, color or previous condition 81
servitude, the person so offending shall
be deemed guilty of misdemeanor.'
Boards of Edncat!on in cities of the first
class are especially authorized by statute
to maintain separate schools for the two
races, but it is not the case in schools
outside Of cities of the first class. Upon

The Kansas City Times presents

The Kansas City Times presents
its readers with a picture of little
Sadie Boomer, the child for whose
disappearance two people were nearly
murdered by a mob few days ago.
Since the finding of the child, the
people who were so abused, have
disappeared and the leaders of the
mob will probably not be punished as
they ought properly to be. 1t
in said subscriptions have been start
ed and various enterprises set going
Tor the benefit of the child and its
parents will probably reach rich
harvest from their attempt to have
two innocent people hanged. Com
mon humanity would have dictated
4 subscription for the benefit of the
poor victims in the case, instead of the
child which had not had one hair OF
its head harmed, but the people OF
Kansas seem to be fond of applying
their Justice where it Is not needed
and nothing can be expected of them
TO the contrary.
