eidered This Afternoon.

Questions Of vital Importance to the pub
lie schools of the District are expected
to be finally decided at the meeting of the
board of education, which will convene al
4:30 O'Clock today at the Franklin School
building. The changes in the course OF
studies suggested recently by Superintend-
ent Stuart, which embrace a more careful
distinction in the essentials, such as gram
mar, arithmetic, spelling and geography
and the use Of text books to a larger de-
gree than heretofore, will probably be def
nitely acted upon.
There was special meeting of the board
last night. at which Superintendent
Stuarts recommendations were considered
but no action was taken.
Today's meeting will also, 1t is under
stood, take action on the subject of half

Pueblo, Colo, A.ay 23.--Five minutes
after Calvin Kimblern. colored muir
derer, reached Pueblo on Rio Grande
train this morning his almost naked
corpse was being dragged through the
streets by as many men as could lay
hands on the rope noosed around his
neck. followed by a howlng mob OF g.
900 persons. Not the slightest attempt
to protect the prisoner was made by
the half dozen officers having him in
charge. As the train pulled into the
station Kimblern was pushed helpless
out from the end of the smoking car
into the very hands OF the mob A
moose was thrown over his head. Many
hands seized the rope. Kimblern was
dragged face downward over the rail-
road tracks and the moose frightened
about his neck. He was undoubtedly
dead before he was hanged to a tele-
graph pole two blocks from the depot.
Twice the rope broke, but the third at
tempt at hanging was successful. Az
ter a few minutes the rope was cut.
and the body dragged a half block fur
tber, the crowd clamoring for n fire
to burn the corpse.
Major West exhorted the throng to
disperse. but his words were unheeded
by many, who thrust senseless indigni-
ties upon the corpse. which was finally
again hooked with manacles to a tele.
graph pole, where It remained severa
| hours. One side OF Klmblern's face
was torn away. Apparently In melee
at the train somebody struck the Negro
on the head with a sledge hammer, in.
| fiicting a wound which must have rem.
dered him unconscious. Autopsy on tn,
bodies OF the two young girls whom
kimblern killed on Sunday revealed
the fact that the negro had violated hi
victims before shooting them.
