IS IT ANOTHER MURDER P
Or Only the Victim of the Surgeons
Forceps-A problem for the
Coroner

Early yesterday morning a boy named
Burkhardt discovered the body of two
DAYS old white child lying in a broken
pickle jar on the side of New Braunfels
avenue, Government hill. The body was
Iyilg half out of the broken jar, and was
wrapped in a copy of the Express Of the
9th of April
The lad telephOned to the police station
and the patrol wagon respon ded, convey
ing the package to the city, where Justice
Jones as coroner, viewed the rem aims.
The head OF the infant was crushed and
one of it's arms was broken. The flesh
had partially dried from exposure to the
dry air of our climate and the limbs were
drawn tightly. 1t had evidently been
carried in the jar TO this place and the
jar broken when the package was thrown
on the ground. No clue has as yet been
discovered beyond the fact of this jar and
the newspaper which may lead to detec
tion of the party who thus disposed Of the
dead baby.

A DOCTORS KICK.
Public Schools Alleged to be Govern
ed by Political Factions.

Several citizens of late have been dis
cuSSing the question as TO whether or not
the board of education should be under
the control Of the mayor and board of
aldermen.
DIR. G. G. Watts, in a conversation with
a LIGHT representative yester day
brought up the question of politics and
branched out on corporal punishment
He said:
Regarding our public schools, eSpeci-
ally in this city, have simply TO say that
they are governed by political
influences, and such should not
be the case. The idea of board of edu-
cation being composed of old political
butchers and other men that cannot pro-
perly write their own names, is prepOster
Gus. This is not only my opinion, but the
opinion of the entire thinking class Of
citizens. A school board should be COM
posed Of five citizens who have had deal
tngs in some school of learning, and who
have the welfare Of their children at
stake, instead of being Of political type.
Until this step taken our public schools
will never be what they should"
The doctor spoke freely on the point,
that unless an applicant for teacher of
some grade has a political pull, he or
she cannot secure a situation, even
though they may possess talent not
eQualled by other applicants"
Corporal punishment is another ques-
ton that is TO be considered" said Or.
Watts. The teachers idea is to either
use the rod or suspend the pupil. Do you
not know from personal experience that a
child will learn more and take pride in
his studies If his honor and pride is ap-
pealed to by an instructor, instead Of the
latter resOrting to the ancien method of
tlOgging? This state of affairs must net
exist or our schools will be of no benefit
to the rising generation

Houston Street Fight.

A scrap" took place Saturday after
noon on Houston street between w. J.
Lisle, a young man from Brentwood
and John O'Connor, the furniture dealer.
Mr.. O'COnnor slapped Lisle because the
latter had used insulting language to
him. Lisle, he stated, had caused him to
pay check for 500 at the bank which
he had endorsed for Lisle and because
he, O'COnnOT, held $1,000 of his money for
him, he cursed him. Lisle was arrested
by Officer Foster and was fined this
morning.

He must either win the medal for the

Excitement ran high when Biesenbach,

only to be shot out on shooting off the tie.

Of these IL dated Honolulu, Febru.
