Officer at Washington.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 5.-Prof.
VIM. f. Anderson, superintendent of
the public schools of Milwaukee, has
preferred charges against Capt. Austin,
of the Metropolitan Police, of this
city, for the infliction Of bodily injury
under circumstances unprovoked and
fragrant. 1t seems that while standing
in front of the east portico, awaiting
the arrival of President Harrison,
to deliver his inaugural address,
Prof Anderson and others were or
dered back by a squad of mounted
police, and they undertook to do SO as
fast as the packed crowd would permit.
At that time Capt. Austin struck Prof.
Anderson with his baton, and tried
to ride over him and others, as
though dispensing a mob, instead
of dealing with peaceable citizens
Prof. Anderson will push the charges
and demand the dismissal of the officer

the funeral services were conduct

The Public School entertain
ment that was placed for Friday
; evening May Ii, had to be post
poned on account of the rain, until
Monday, May 20, at which time a
large audience assembled, and
was entertained with declamations,
dialogues, songs and instrument
tai music. The house was full,
and the rich treat presented
claimed the attention of all. The
pupils bore their parts exceeding
ly well, and many were the hearty
laughs INDUCED in. The decla-
nations by the little ones were
well rendered, and the dialogues
played in excellent style. The
instrumental music given by Miss
Hopkins of Brashear, and Misc
Biggs of Queen City, was highly
appreciated. The Battle of Water
loo, rendered by Miss Hopkins,
= = was very fine, making one feel as
u u though they were in hearing OF
q the great conflict of arms that
l. decided the destiny of the First
,. Napoleon. Our teachers and pupils

!. giving us such rich treat. We
:. hope to have another in the neal
future

Mr.. Heiny's assertion that
three -fourths of the Republicans
in town did not want Mr.. Spencer
removed, because Mr. Miller was
not removed, like all his other
assertions of last week, is false.
Mr.. Heiny very well knows that
it was a part of the contract be-

and few certain democrats that
Mr.. Miller should stay in, if posi-
BILE, till after the congressional
race. But their designs leaked
out and the combination became

In large cities there are
different grades of society, and the
lines separating the different
grades are rigidlY drawn. So ex-
acting is society in this regard in
many of the larger cities that
the amusements of the one grade
are almost wholly unknown in
another. But in towns like our
own, whera nearly every man
makes some claim to respectable
ty, society is more nearly on an
equality. There are no high
priced pews, that one may enjoy a
seat in the house of God to the
exclusion of another So is it
with our amusements. While some
may have a higher appreciation
for fine musical or dramatic
entertainment than others, yet we
have none of that class who only
have eye and ear for the sight and
sound of the vulgar. It's true
that an entertainment or show
that is not usually found outside
the slams Of a city, may get an
audience in kirksville or any
town of similar size. But that it
docs is not the fault of the people.
ii is expected that the one who
furnishes entertainments in a
town of ihis kind has too much
respect fer himself, his family
and his associates 10 offer any
thing for the entertainment Of
the public that could not he seen
and heard with propriety by
mothers, wives and daughters.
An abuse of this confidence
seldom occurs, and when it does it
is greatly to be regretted, for the
injury done is almost irreparsble.
That 1t has recently occurred in
our town must be acknowledged,
and has Justly caused much in
dignatlon among the people, For
the best interests of all it is hoped
that such entertainments as were
recently foisted upon the people
will never again be admitted TO
our city.
