Colligan was riding reached the box car
it jumped the track and smash-up en-
sued. Why the victim did not save
himself, as he might have done, will
never be known, but he was smashed
between the two cars and horribly man
gled. A Jagged splinter tore open his
side and a portion of his lung was left
| hanging on the box car. His face was
also badly bruised. He was found
few minutes after the accident
and was still breathing, but died
five minutes later. The body was

carries. Why is it that parents be-
lieve things said against a teacher
that they would not think of believ-
ing if spoken against any one else?
The worst of it is that all this is
kept from the teacher 1t is wonder
full how many things come up against
the Superintendent of a school just
before election to choose a Board of
Education, which will have the say as
to who Will have charge of the
schools for the next year. They say
over in Ohio that we superintendent
have a union to stand up for each
others rights. He is proud that this
is getting to be the case, for there is
nothing so mean as to hear OF one
teacher speaking against another
listening to idle reports concerning
him.
DR.. JepsOn was called on, and spoke
feelingly to the effect that the people
of Wheeling as a mass have the most
profound respect for the teachers of
our public schools, and that the grade
of our teachers is constantly being
elevated. He said he had such pro-
found respect for a teacher that he
always felt like taking off his hat
when he met one.
A recess of ten minutes was taken,
after which the subject Are the Re-
suits a Sufficient Criterion by Which
to Judge of the Quality Of Work
Done?" was opened by Superintend-
ent POrterfield in a short, spicy
speech. Principal Jones, of Lincoln
