THE sonLny INQUIRY.
New York Evening Post.

Now that the Schley partisans have
had two days in which to study the
report Of the court Of inquiry, there
Is every indication that the plan for a
Congressional inquiry Is rapidly being
abandoned. rhis Is as II should be.
The fact that Dewey approved conclu-
rlons far more damaging to Schley
than those from which he dssented has
cooled the ardor OF the Schley par
tlsans, There is nothing to be gained
by rehearing. Indeed there is every
probability that Congressional COM
mlttee might find itself as unable to
disagree upon the cold hard facts about
sehIey's 'vaclllation, dilatoriness, and
lack of enterprise" as did the naval
court ~

BOSTON TRANSCRIPT.

Admiral Schley was appointed to an
honorable command, In which he
served until the time Of his retirement
by reason Of age drew nigh. Here
certainly Is not record of 'persecu-
tom" When assailed by a historian
he elected to try his cause before
court Of his own profession, rather
than resort to an action for libel IN
the ordinary tribunals. The insulting
hnputations which this historian level
led against Schley the court pro-
nounced groundless. He Is left In the
rosition which other men personally
brave but hesltating under RESPONSE
hillty have been left by military or
naval inquiries.

HELP THOSE WOMEN"
The Ladies Of the Library As
sOciatiOn Should Not Be
CenSured.

The outcome of the 'friendly suit
against the Library Association is very
unfortunate.
1t is not known yet, what the Asso
citation will do in the matter, as nc
meeting of the Association has yet
been held. Whether the books will be
sold to pay back the money to the
School Board, or whether some other
plan will be devised to raise the money,
| is not known.
But it is very unfortunate that the Lii
brary Association is so embarrassed. 1t
may be that the libraryroom will have to
be closed and the ibraryas apublic in
stitution brought to,an end. We have
heard of no other solution being sug-
gested.
1t is unfortunate that the ladies are
so embarrassed; it is more unfortunate
that the children and youth of the city
will probably be deprived of the priv
ileges of the library. The library was
well patronized, and was doing much
good, and our citizens were proud of
the library room and its work.
The ladies of the Association are
fearful that they will be censured, and
that it will be said they should not have
taken the money from the school board
till they were sure they had a right to
it. They claim that Mr.. Kennedy,
who brought the friendly suit" against
them, which has precipitated all this
trouble, himself urged the school board
to levy the tax for the AsSo-
citation, claiming that they had a
clear right to do so? and the wo-
men, not being lawyers. thought the
lawyers knew the law (s grave mistake J
and that there was no question about
their right to accept it, and use it.
With this understanding of the case,
they need have no fears that they will be
censured'by the public. Their object has
been q noble one, and the whole COM
munity will absolve them from any
censure for any mistake made.

Attempt to Break Jail.

There is ''smart set in the Logan
county Jail at present that keeps all
hands on the look out to prevent a
breakout. Friday it was discovered that
a lever bar that is part of the apparatus
used to close the upper corridor had
been twisted off, and they were using it
to pry up the stone floor, and to pry
bars away from the windows. The
three Muncie burglars seemed to be
the operators, but Walter Lang, the
forger, who has been locked in his cell
since the last attempt at Jail breaking,
is given credit for planning the job.
Now all parties concerned are enjoy
ing single Llessedness in their separate
cells.

BeIIefontaine Export Trade.

Mr.. Joseph Cotton went to Cincin-

Bros customers from Glasgow, Scot
land.
Some twelve or fifteen years since,
gentleman stepped into Colton's
Mills and introduced himself as Glas-
Cow merchant, and said he was in
America looking for -four that would
suit his trade; that he had seen their
-four, and wanted 200 bags (14O pounds
each) as sample. From that order
they have had steady trade in Glas-
Cow of their best flour, running some
40, 600 bags year. Freight rates are
so low that flour can he shipped from
Bellefontaine to GLASGOW for 81 cents q
bag 140 pounds, J nearly as cheaply as
you could send one from the mill tC
your home in BellefOntaine.

Teachers Bi.Monthly.

The session in Educational Hall was
well attended. Mr.. Solomon, the new
ly elected President, is handsome
fellow, and his inaugural address was
beautifully given. His theme was
sour Profession" and the arguments
in its favor were well worded, and
strong.
Did we rightly understand when he
said teaching school was too often used
by young men as a stepping stone to
something better, and by young ladies
until they could get something
worse" and he unmarried, too? DR..
Thompson, of the o. S. U. missed a
train, and was compelled to drive from
Milford Center, % miles, in the rain.
But he kept his appointment. although
little late in getting here.
During the time of waiting, Supt.
McKinnon entertained the teachers
and visitors with talk on the stars.
1t was great pleasure to listen to
DIR. Thompson. His remarks were
good for parents as well as teachers, and
we felt there would be fewer complaints
of these latter day methods of crowding
pupils, if the parents could have been
there. DR.. Thompson will always re-
ceive a warm welcome in this city.
Miss Florence Butler sang two beau
tiful solos, which were appreciated.
and warmly applauded. Miss Claire
Campbell played the piano accompa-
ment. And we must not forget little
Miss Caroline Kinnan, whose recitation
was without fault, and remarkable for
so young a child. She should have been
placed on the table where all might
have seen her. The powers that be,
deserve credit for the arrangement of
the most interesting programs.

1t is against your own. interests

This is the largest department in

Where you find an assortment
like this under one roof, you usually
find the prices right. Goods bought
in large quantities are bought
cheaper than in small quantities.
This is another item worth remem-
bering. We can save you money,

you should buy.

ing line were Rev. Mr.. Groom and

two pretty contralto solos by stranger
whose name we did not learn. Tables
were arranged in the north room,
where they were served with ice cream,
cake and coffee.
Mr.. Christie Williams was master of
ceremonies. DIR. Kalb asked the bless
| ing and Rev. G. E. Davies welcomed
Rev. Mr.. Groom. The response was
of an earnest disciple of Christ, and we
were glad to give welcome grasp OF
the hand, to this new pastor, whom we
believe will do good work in our midst,
and we congratulate our sister church
| in being able to so soon secure such a
pastor as the one they have chosen
Rev. Mr. Hawker spoke for the Bap
tist church. Mr.. Williams sympathiz
ed with those who were in waiting ant
did not call for further remarks. Il wa
