HI. Schweitert, the superintendent.
elect of this county, is native of Col
ony township, and was at one time q
teacher in the schools of this county.
For the past five years he has been at
tending schoola at Cornell college. We
bespeak for him the same loyal support
Of the teachers that the present super.
intendeDt has received. The success of
this officer is largely dependent upon
the cooperation of the teachers in his
efforts. It is certainly the duty OF
teachers and superintendent to work
together for the common object-the
welfare of the schools. Delaware

"A man giving his name as F
Lewis Muckell, of Iowa City, arrived
in the city from the south on the Iii
Z nois Central last Wednesday evening
and told genuine hard luck story. He
said that his pocket book containing
$3.50, which he had carefully sewed W
with white Irvine in his inside overcoa
pocket had been stolen while he wa
sitting in the passenger coach asleep
The coach was nearly filled with pass
engers, most of whom were Mancheste
people, and not one saw anything o
the alleged robbery or noticed any on
upon whom suspicion might be cast
The pocket book was afterward foun'
in the coach and contained few value
less papers. If the wallet was stolel
1t was without doubt the work Of q
experienced hand.

hereby abolished. this action to take
effect at the beginning of the next
school year"
This was the resolution unanimously
carried at the meeting of the Board of

The report prepared by the commit
tee on select schools was presented be
fore the members. 1t gave complete
history of the fee system. The condi-
tiOns on account of which such plan
was adopted We're set forth. These
were contrasted with the state Of af-
fairs existent today. The changes were
made apparent and the pressing need
for an elimination of the charge was
made clear. In conclusion it recon-
mended that the fee system be done
away with.
The members were then called upon
for their opinions regarding the report
The sentiment of all was that free ed
ucation to all, irrespective of races or
classes, should be the Boards policy.
Each clause of the report was carefully
discussed. The members felt the ne
cessity of making no false steps and
desired that every move should be to-
ward the goal sought.
After a few minor changes Mrs. Jor-
dan moved that the report of the COM
mittee be accepted. This was second
ed by DR.. Maxwell and unanimously
carried.
1t was then voted that copies Cf the
report be made and distributed among
the members and given to the press
The regular business of. the Board
was then taken up. Applications and
designations were referred to the school
committee. 1t was decided that school
close on the 23rd of June, in order to
allow a number of the teachers to at
tend the Teachers Convention, which
meets in Los Angeles in the first part
OF July. The meeting then adjourned
The following were present: Min
lister Mott-Smith, Inspector Townsend,
Professor Alexander, Dr. Maxwell. J.

IAARA TO HANG
One Of the Rioters to Suffer the
Death Penalty.
TWO OF FIVE ACQUITTED
Jury Gut Three Hours Able Ad-
dresses BY Attorneys Judge
Perry's Clear Charge.

After three hours deliberation last
night the jury in the case of the Ka-
huku Japanese charged with murder,
returned verdict as follows:
Ihara, murder in the first degree, two
jurors dissenting
Osaki, manslaughter in first degree,
three jurors dissenting
Yamane, manslaughter in third de-
gree, two dissenting.
DanjrO. not guilty, three dissenting.
F'ujiinoto, not guilty, two dissent
ing.
Judge Perry finished his charge to
the jury at S:25 and the twelve good
men and true retired to the consulta-
ton room. There We're several false
alarms, but at Hos they filed into the
court room and delivered the above
verdict.
The defense began it's argument
when the morning session opened. At
torney Robertson carefully reviewed
the evidence. In a clear and direct way
he dwelt upon and elucidated the points
which needed explanation and which
might have a bearing upon the deci
sion. His closing appeal was forcible
and at times eloquent.
w. O. Smith then closed for the pros-
ecution. He told of the beginning OF
The riot The claim Of the defense
that the three japanese had visited the
camp of the Chinese for the purpose
of identifying the man who had been
engaged in the quarrel of the day be-
fore, he said was unfounded. Instead
|of Identifying they went with murder
in their hearts. He paid particular at
tention to the blooddripping knife,
held by Ihara. He explained how the
acts Of rage and passion Of the charged
men denoted their murderous intent.
At half past five he rested the case and
the jury was taken TO the hotel.
Promptly at o'clock the jury again
convened and Judge Perry began his
charge. He explained the Indictment
and defined murder in the eyes of the
law. The propositions of being an ac-
cOmplice or an accessory were careful
ly presented. No point which needed
attention was left untouched. Gentle
men, the responsibility which now
rests upon you is most serious one,
and may God help you in your deliD-
erations,' was the concluding admoni-
ton.
The bailiffs then led the jury to
room, of
courtroom the lawyers engaged in the
case gathered together and relieved
the monotony of waiting by relating
stories of other trials. In the hall
cerned the officers keeping guard.
In the midst of all the waiting and
suspense the five defendants were the
most unconcerned of all present. They
talked rapidly among themselves, and
all were laughing save one. This was
Ihara, who seemed to realize that the
charge OF murder in the first degree,
with possibly the Moose, was his fate.
One looking at the five close-huddled
on the bench would never have real
lied that they were the subjects Of the
jury's deliberations
When the final knock came and the
jury returned to the courtroom, all
was as silent as death. Fred w. Nc
Chesney, who had been elected fore
man. read the verdict. 1t was then
translated to the japanese, whose
manner did not change.
