Prof. L. A. Ketchum. the principal
Of the public school at Stanley i'll Chip
pewa county has been arrested on a
charge of assulting and battering Will
ard King, seven year old pupil of the
primary departmement. The professor
has been principal of the Stanley schools
since 1898, to the seeming satisfaction of
the community, but since his arrest the
fact looms up that he is not universally
popular, to some of the Stanley citizens
while amajority ofof he people are friend
~ disposed toward him, claiming that the
chastened boy did not receive his injuries
at the hands OF MIR. Ketchum but that
he received them in a fight he had with
another boy, about an nour after he had
passed through the correcting hands OF
Mr. Ketchum. Both parties are we'll
provided with the munitions of war.
A number of prominent Superior
business men have interested themselves
in the cause of A. A. Cadwallader, the
defaulting Superior National Bank cash
Ter, whose sentence was recently reduced
by the president from five to two years.
The action of the president was general
" commended, but there is a feeling
among those familiar with the circum-
stances Of the case that the unfortunate
man has suffered enough and it is now
proposed to ask the president for his full
pardon in order that he may be restored
to citizenship. Ii no further action is
taken Cadwallader will not be released
until some time next August. Many peo-
pie believe Cadwallader was more sinned
against than SHINING. He came to Su-
perior with a considerable sum of money
belonging to himself and Eastern rela-
tions which he invested injudiciOusly
through the representations OF people
he trusted. Considerable money was
sunk in this way and the bank trouble
followed

The stockholders of the Pittsburg and

lsgheny and Evergreen Traction coni-
pany, which was organized last week,
met last evening at the residence of w.
A. Klein, secretary of the two organiza-
tons, 81 Perry street, Allegheny, for the
purpose of further discussing plans. AL
those financially interested were present
The evening was taken up with an eX-
animation of the city ordnance regulating
street car lines and agreeing to comply
with them.
McCreery & Rogers, the attorneys of
the companies, were instructed to pre-
pare ordinances granting rights of way
through the streets of Allegheny the roads
propose to traverse. This ordinance will
be presented to Allegheny Councils at
the first regular meeting in June, and
they will ask that it be passed at once.
The paid in capital stock of the two COM
panies will be $50, 900.
Secretary Klein stated that the road
would not stop at Evergreen, as was de
cided at the last meeting. For some
time past" said Mr.. Klein "there has
been talk of an electric line to Butler
and, eventually, we expect to extend ouI
line to that place. From Evergreen we
will take it through Milvale, Etna and
| Sharpsburg, and to the county seat o.
Butler county. In addition 10 that it l:
our intention to put freight cars on the
through line TOR The purpose Of carrying
vegetables, fruit, etc, from the farms IL
Butler county to the city. This is done
on the Coraopolis line, and is made tt
pay, and the farm lands between Allie
gheny and Butler are just as fertile, anC
we should be able to carry equally a
much freight.

The New e astle Libel Case.

A petition for change of veLue in the
libel case of w. D. Wallace against the
News" was refused by Judge Miller al
New Castle, Tuesday. The defense then
presented petition containing the sen,
sational statement that Judge Miller was
not an impartial and disinterested judge
to try the case, for the reason that he had
written letter in which he had express.
ed himself on three points Of law pertain
ing to the case.
Judge Miller said: Its not true.
never expressed an opinion on the case. "
Ex-Judge Norman Martin one of the
attorneys of the defense, here produced
the letter written to Daniel Jameson,
cashier of the Citizens bank, and whom
Judge Miller supposed controlled the
News" The letter complained of the
action in the famous Richardson case
and asked that future criticism be stop
ped. The objection was overruled.
Another, objection to the entire pane
of jurors drawn, was presented. The rea-
son for the objection was that Judge
Wallace, while having a suit pending
had himself assisted in filling the jury
wheel and had placed names in it alter
nately with the county commissioners
Judge Wallace had also failed to certify
the jury drawn to the prothonotary, a
required by law. Argument on this peti
ton took up the greater part of the after
noon.
The sui. IS brought ~ Judge Wallac
on account ot q hearing before Alderman
Bowman III -Ae famous Richardson-Tar
delli bribery case. He alleges that tn
head on the article insinuated that h.
was party to the bribery by receiving
$50. He wants $4,000 damages.

NEIGHBoRKooD NOTES.

Ex-Judge Henry Hice's selection OF j.
Fl. Harrah, J. L. Homes and David A. Mel
son as q committee to investigate the
charges concerning President Judge Z.
Sharpe Wilson OF Beaver county, is gener-
ally commended by citizens of that county
who say that the three are men OF nerve,
who will not shirk their duty, but yet IL
able to err on the side of humanity, if error
be committed. There is no discounting
the wide sweep of the discussion aroused
by the affair. II has entered politics, Of
course, and it bids fair to divide the circles
of the church.
Beaver Falls ministers have gone on a
strike against Sunday funerals and say they
will attend no more except in cases OF
necessity. The ministers claim that their
action is based on the grounds of morality,
and the Sunday funerals are not work of
necessity, but some Of the working people
go so far as to say that the action was TAX
en- By the ministers simply to avoid duty
on Sunday. The ministers also talked over
the matter of abolish .ng the practice OF
preaching sermons at funerals, and use q
| simple form of bur ial service only, and IN
cases where it was thought necessary TO
preach sermon to do 1t in the church on
the following Sunday, and to announce ii
| beforehand
"Rattlesnake" Pete Gruber arrived in
Oil City frem Rochester, n. Y, the other
day, and a few hours later vas securing his
| old hauuts in that neighborhood fo- his
| summers allowance of rattlers and copper
heads, in company with his friend, DR.. c.
J. Reynolds, OF East End, Pittsburg The
| harvest was not up to the usual average
and after few hours on Stewards Run,
they returned with only two. One oi
these sported string Of eleven rsttles and
| a mean temper, and on his. way to town
took mean advantage of his captors by
biting the smaller snake, while Peter and
his companion stopped to rest. The latter
heard the sound of the conflict aud after
matters quieted down they made an e1'
animation and found the smaller snake dy-
| ing. Two other rsttlers were met but
| they slipped beneath rock too large fol
| the hunters to turn over. Pete and the
| Doctor left next morning for Cornplantel
run, where two years ago they captured
batch of 10 beneath rock that was only
| three feet square.

SINCE the late congressinal convention
in Butler, persistent effort has oeen
made here to throw all the blame for
Showalter's defeat upon Mr. Phillips,
but this is unfair, and is probably done
with a purpose.
In this matter we were somewhat mis-
taken in our views of last week. we
have since learned that though the
Lawrence Co. delegation was instructed
for Phillips, the majority of it was con-
trolled by Judge Wallace, and that there.
fore Phillips could not have nominated
Showalter had he wished to.
The nomination of Davidson was the
work of Matthew Stanley Quay, and his
friends in Lawrence and Mercer counties,
and if Showalter had any promises from
him in the matter he can again thank
him for deceiving him.
Mr.. Phillips is, we understand, al
aspirant for higher political honors, and
if that is the case, this persistent effort
to defame him is probably in the In
terest of some other aspirant.

THE National Prohibition Convention
met in Pittsburg, yesterday, in the Ex.
position building. If there is a contest
in the convention it will be between the
''broad-gauge" and the "narrow-gauge'
people, e, those who wish to take in the
money, tariff and other questions besides
the temperance; and those who wish to
conhne the platform and proceedings to
the temperance or prohibition question
alone. The latter are the wise ones.
At the session of yesterday, the 'Nar-
rows" secured the Platform Committee
and the Temporary organization, while
the "Broads" secured the permanent
craftsmanship. Today's fight in the plat
form will be hot one.
