JUDGE BARR, of the U. 5. court for
this district, has resigned, and having
passed the age of retirement will now
draw full pay. 5000 a year for the rest
of his natural life. Why judges who
get good pay for not an excessive
amount of work should be 50 pensioued
and other employees of the government
not, is something only lawyers can at
tempt even to explain. Judge Barr
was born in Woodford county and was
appointed TO the Office by Hayes. He
was pretty fair sort OF a judge, but is
far from being a great jurist.

w. p. WALTON.

In retaliation for our temerity In
having little fun with his grammar
Editor Spotswood, Of the Harrodsburg
Democrat, fires this at us:
A IL year old boy from Pike county
was placed In the penitentiary Tuesday
for setting fire to a barn. Come. Editor
Walton, IL Is time you stopped your
fooling and build that House OF Re
form. The peniteutisry Is swarming
with children now who ought TO be
any where else iu the wide world.
Our good friend can possess his soul
in peace. The trustees of the Houses
of Reform are doing their best under
the most adverse circumstances, and
hope to have the institution ready for
the reception Of juvenile criminals by
June |. AT least they have contracted
with firm under heavy penalty to have
the buildings ready by that time. They
have also made requisition on the gov
ernor for dozen or so OF youthful
criminals confined in the penitentiary
and they will be put to work getting
the farm In shape for a big crop. The
trustees have had to move slowly be-
cause they we're forced to assert
their right to the 100000 appropria-
ton in the courts. To go through the
regular channels this required long 1T
igation and occasioued delay In some
plans and the entire destruction OF 9TH
ers. We hope to have smooth sailing
now and IL the Harrodsburg editor can
content himself till then, we will see
that he is admitted to the institution
on the first day of June and promptly
cured OF his incorrigibility.

THE court of appeals has rendered a
most important decision. 1t holds that
there is no law authorizing assessors TO
assess property at 20 per cent. OF its
value. it having been repealed by Sec.
172 of the new constitution. The
court also holds that il such assess
ments have been made it constitutes no
reason why the State board of valua-
tion should so assess street railway
franchises instead OF at fair cash
value. This settles the right OF the
State board TO assess railroad fran
chises and will put many hundred
thousand into the treasury.

Young Woman ChIoroformed and
IhrOvyn Into River.

DIES MONIES, To-, Oct 24-The death
OF Mabel Schofeld, whose body was found
in the Des Moines river Sunday, has
been complete mystery until today. 1t
is now believed she was drugged and
then thrown in the river. The coroner's
jury has been holding secret sessions,
which are not concluded Three men, all
OF good standing, have testified that Sun
day afternoon they saw boat come
down the river in which were two men
and a. woman, the woman lying on the
bottom of the boat, motionless. The men
We're talking to her, but she did not
move. When they saw the Schofield girl
they testified positively that her clothes
were the same as those of the woman in
the boat. 1t is established by the physl-
clans that she did not die by drowning,
as the condition of the body proves this.
The officers believe she was chloroformed
and then thrown in the river.
There is no clue to the men who were in
the mysterious boat.

his breast, and the conclusion reached
was that he had tripped while getting
out Of his boat and accidentally discharg-
afternoon and his unexplained absence
caused a searching party to hunt the
marsh. When he received the fatal
wound, his clothing caught on fire from
close contact with the gun and this COM

WON'T CLOSE SCHOOLS
Board of Education Has Contracts
With the Teachers.

The decision of the supreme court in
the school tax case cuts down the amount
of money which VIII be received by the
board of education for the running ex-
penses of the schools 100000 a year. Two
thirds of this amount, if it had been al
lowed, would have been applied on the
running expenses of the last part of this
school year, and the other tn I'd would
have been applied to the first third of
next year.
Under the existing conditions, however
the board of education is now facing an
inevitable deficit of 100000
The board will not have enough money
to run the schools throughout the year,
but still the members of the board declare
that they will be kept open. All the
teachers are under contract for one year.
and consequently any reduction in the
number Of weeks of schools would not
affect the amount that must be pad them
in salaries. 1t is therefore certain that
the schools will run full time although it
is also true that the board will have to
cut expenses in every possible way, and
then probably come out at the end of the
year with big shortage.
