During a recent visit To the Qua
paw Mission my attention was
called by the principal. Miss King
cade, Ia well equipped library
that she had received from some
New Jersey friends as a gift for
that mission. 1t certainly is very
valuable acquisition to the school
and will be made doubly SO i'm the
hands of such an able and appre-
ciative faculty. Every teacher
knows the true value of books. The
library consists of between one
and two hundred volunns. Some
are especially adapted to- Kinder
garten and primary children, and
others TO every grade of minds.
If anyone will visit the school and
watch Miss Kingcade teach a class
in reading or geography they can
learn the true use oil books or maps.
To know how to- use books wisely is
a valuable achievement. To bring
the world in pictures TO those untu-
tored minds that have never trav-
eled beyond their prairie homes or
| their school. ia "a valuable mode of
extending their mental vision.
With the pictures and a live. en-.
thusiastic teacher. theyare carried
far from home and permitted to
travel in foreign lands. We learned
that the superintendent of Indian
schools had recently been there
and was pleased to see such a
library. On learning his name and
where he was from, we found he
was Hoosier school teacher. who
in our teaching days had built up
AN enviable reputation at La Porte,
Indiana, and we were pleased to
learn he is at the head of the Indian
schools. We hope our adtninistra-
ton will be wise and keep him
there. as Cleveland was in holding

BURGLAR SHOT.
Bold Attempt to Enter the
North Grafton Post Office.
Gang Of Six Burglars Discovered
at Work by the Officers.
0ne Killed, Two Captured and Three others
Make Their Escape.

Worcester, Mass, Nov. IA gang Of
SIX burglars were surprised in the post
office at North Grafton, at 13O o'clock.
this morning. Constables Amos ]. and
Wm A. Getchell and George Allen and
Louis Demaris surrounded the building
when they We're fired upon by the men
inside. A general fusilade followed.
Four of the gang started to run away,
and one of them was fatally shot. Two
others We're captured inside of the
building. and the other three escaped.
The men captured gave their names
as Thomas McGrath and Lawrence
Day. They We're handcuffed and a
strong guard of citizens, who had been
attracted by the firing, detained them
until daylight.
1t was not until after o'clock that
the body of the dead burglar was
found. 1t was lying fiat on the back,
about 10 rods from the post Office build
ing. with bullet hole in the chin
The man had bled freely from the
mouth and nose, and it was evident
that he had fallen where he was found
soon after being struck by the bullet.
The prisoners seemed much affected
when told that one of their comrades
was dead, and cursed the officers for
firing to kill, when the members of the
gang were only firing into the air with
out any intention of hitting the Off
GERS. Later they pretended to know
but little about the dead man. saying
that they had met him at the North
End in Boston, a few days ago. They
claimed that they did not even know
u iS. nj J,a1 al
him called French Louie" The body
was placed in barn in North Graf
ton, and Medical Examiner Robinson
of Southboro, was notified.
McGrath and Day were taken to West
boro and arra;Gncd in the district court
on the charge of burglary. They were
held in the sum of $4,000 each for appear
ance before the superior court. Immedi-
ltciy afterwards the prisoners were
brought to this city and taken TO the
Waldo street station house and searched.
When captured each of them was found
to be armed with n revolver, and one of
them had in his possession a flask con-
tanning nitro-S lycerine. At the search in
this city, roll of bills amounting to
about $40 was found concealed in one Of
McGrath's stockings. and a small amount
of money was found in Days possession.
McGrath claimed to have come from
the West, and said that ne had met Day
only a few days ago and that they had
fallen in with the dead man, a little later
and had proposed the burglary. They
stoutly deny Ibat there had been anyone
else engagedHn the affair. but the North
Grafton officers say three more men es-
capped.
Inspector O'Day thinks that the dead
man may be James kenney, alias
French kenney, alias George Franklin,
and sometimes known as French Louie"
This man escaped from the Summer
street jail in this city with several other
prisoners, May 3. 1887, and was afterward
arrested in New Hampshire and served
5-years term in Concord penitentiary for
safe-blowing.
