transpires that the woman who betrayed
the Roslyn robbers is Sarah Jane Morgan.

While there she heard of the plot to rob
the bank. and after the deed had been

house. Soon afterwards she intimated her
intention of leaving for her home in Salt
Lake, but Lewis refused to consent to her
departure. They had quarrel. during
which she threatened to expose the gang
and he threatened to kill her.
At last Miss Morgan contrived to COM

Salt Lake to whom she was betrothed.
He rescued her from her relative and she
went to Utah. Then she informed

ton, of the doings of the gang and he
caused their arrest. She is now in iaiI at
Elensburg, held there as a witness.

Cttixene Incensed 1T Summary Dismissal
OF Several Teachers.
CENrRALIA, April 16.-[Special. Tho
people of this city are much excited ever
the action of two of the school directors
on Friday night in refusing to re-engage q
number Of old teachers. some of whom
have been in the schools for several years,
and filling their places with inexperienced
girls, pupils in the high school and two
others. one from Montana aud another
from Oregon, whose abilities as teachers
are not known here. At the meeting on
Friday evening nearly all the teachers
were present and large number of prom
inent citizens. who had obtained an ink
ling of what the probable action of the two
members of the board, Frank T. McNitt
and c. w. Fowler, would be. The teach
ers dismissed respectfully asked the reason
for their dismissal, As there were no
charges of incompetency or other disqual-
ihcation alleged against them.
The only answer made by McNitt was
"that when he had a hired man in his en-
ploy he could discharge him without ex-
planning his reasons therefor" Fowler
mede no explanation.
The schools Of Centralia have borne q
high reputation for efficiency, and the
corps OF teachers has enjoyed the esteem
and confidence of the community, and it
was one of the boasts of the citizens that
our city offered to intending settlers unex-
ceptionable facilities for the education of
their children. Eleven teachers in addi-
tion to the superintendent are now en-
ployed and all the departments are full
The present trouble had its inception last
fall during the canvass preceding elec-
.tion, when Mr.. Lease, one Of the teachers
in the high school. became the Republican
candidate for county superintendent and
was opposed by Prof Eddy. of Winlock,
the principal of the schools in that place.
Prof. Borst. the superintendent Of the
schools. took an active part in
tho canvass and demanded of all
the teachers under him their unqualified
support Of Lease. Failing in this he
openly evinced his displeasure, and 10 al
legged to have made threats of causing the
removal of certain teachers, although he
disclaims having influenced the board in
any manner. At the meeting of the board
speeches were made in opposition to the
action Of the board by President Hense, Of
the First National bank, ex-P Prosecutine
Attorney Swazey. w. G. Gaunce, gem
tleman of much experience in educational
matters; Editor Whinnery, Of the Chroni-
Gle, and many others.
Yesterday a number Of prominent gen.
tlemen interviewed McNitt and Fowler.
and sought to have them reconsider their
action, but they both evinced determina-
ton to stand by their action regardless of
the consequences.
Failing in obtaining any satisfaction
from them the people will hold public
meeting on Tuesday evening, at which, it
is said. resolutions will be passed inviting
them to resign. If they refuse an attempt
may be made to get the matter before the
state superintendent on demand for an
Investigation into the charges affecting
the character of Prof Borst, who, 1t 10
thought, is the cause of all the trouble.

to do it, saying that he had already con-

that if he did do it he would kill him.
Horn disregarded the warning and took
the calf and sold it, and when he returned
Smith shot him before he had time to get

WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, Oct. Ii
Paid admissions to the worlds fair

a Long Strike.

Providence, r. l., Oct. 12.-The big
strike inaugurated by the weavers in
O~lneyville bids fair Il become a long
struggle between the strikers and the
millers; but it is believed now that it
will be continued chiefly to those al
ready out, as up to the present time the
weavers in other mills throughout
Rhode Island have refused to enter in
to the ranks of the unemployed. A big
mass meeting was held and the general
management of the strike was placed
in the hands of the chairman and secre-
tary, neither of whom are workmen.
