A FRENCH TEACHER FOUND
Rabbi Blum's Successor Assumes Her
Duties
Hiss Blanche LeveilIe Has Been Informally
Designated to Do the
Work

The new teacher of French in the high
school has been designated and she has
for over two weeks been at her duties.
She is not Miss Whitney. The successor
to Rabbi Abraham Blum is Miss Blanche
Leveille. just as The Herald pred
she would be nearly two weeks ago. Miss
Leveille is regular high school teacher
who has also a certificate as French
teacher. The board of education has
never appointed her formally as DR..
Blum's successor. but the teachers COM
mlttee, to whom the matter was left in
charge, directed Professor Housh to use
his own judgment in the premises, and
the principal of the high school simply
designated Miss Leveille to assume charge
of the French class. This selection saves
to the city the salary of tie regular
French teacher.

To Protect G. A. r. Badges

The G. A. r. department officers in
this state have received number OF
complaints recently that many per
sons not entitled to do so are wearing
both the official Grand Army badge
and button.
Paragraph 2,438 of the general
statues of Kansas provides that any
person or persons illegally wearing
the badges or buttons may be subject
ed to fine Of $25 and thirty days in
jail fo1 so dong. This law the de.
partment officers propose to see en-
forced. They are Of the opinion that
men who are impostors sometimes
wear their badges and attempt By
false preteHses aud Misrepresentation
to secure public favor on account OF
the insignia which means so much to
the loyal men who wear hem with
pride and honor. One Of these badg' ae
in the hands Of an irresponsible DER.
son might work inestimable damage
TO Reorganization and to its members
and for those reasons and as a matter
of personal pride the department Of
6cers propose to protect the members
and themselves and will make an Of
fort to bring offenders to justice.

Read This Carefully.

Read This Carefully.
From many parts of the county
there come letters telling that rumors
are being circulated by our political
opponents regarding the personal
history of one of the nominees OF the
popullst party. The gentleman whose
reputation is thus assailed ip E. M.
Baker, of this city, and in justice to
him we publish the story Of his trou-
bic lust as we understand it,
Ia 1881 there lived in Dayton town
ship e. NJ. Baker, who is now the
popullst nominee for sheriff. Mr..
Baker was eighteen years Of age. AT
that time the country vas not very
thickly settled and hay land was
plentiful, and custom decreed. that
the hay belonged to the man who cut
it. One day Mr.. Baker took a now
ing machine and went on to piece
of school land, which by the way he
now owns, and commenced to cut the
hay. A neighbor by the name OF g.
Atherton came to where the hay was
being cut and asked Baker why the
hay was being cut. The reply was
that the hay was being cut for feed
Anterior then told him to stop cut
ting the hay and started to put Baker
off the land. A row ensued in which
Atherton got worsted. Baker let him
up on his promising to let him alone
Instead, however, of doing So Ather
ton started for Baker, who ran around
the team, Anterior following him up.
Baker warned Anterior to stay away
from him, but the latter still followed
and, overtakiDg Baker, kicked him
struck HIM on the nose Baker had
a pocket-knife in his pocket, which
he opened and cut Anterior in the
side. Atherton Was kept at home but
short time on account of his injuries
Baker came to town and told the
county attorney what he had done
Three or four days atterward he was
arrested and placed under small
bond, and at the next term OF district
court was Oopyicted and sent to the
peniteutiary for ons year. Atthee END
Of ten months he came back aud has
been a resident of this place ever
since. Many of the old settlers who
arc acquainted with the facts state
that tboy heljeye that Mr.. Baker was
wrongfully convicted, During the
nost thirteen years he has lived t
quiet, unassumiDg life, for the mos
time working at the carpenter trade
Mr.. Baker IS an honored meE'"el
OF two or three fraternal organiza
tions, in one Of WHICH, at least, ht ha'
been given all the honor0 it was pos
sible for his brethren to give him
lie has also been appointed to offices
Of trust by men Of other political be
llefs. This matter ls very delicate
one to handle, for the story is bein{
used not openly but sneakingly anC
cowardly. The better element of thu
republican party condemns, but Their
are some political hyenas who love tt
| live off mems characters, and to otfse
the work OF these the story is put in
to print, with an honest desire to tel
the truth and with no effort to white
wash any act that is censnrable. /
