hour or more after the meeting had
ended.

Omission OF the Word aTor

The advertisement on Wednesday OF
The Mutual Life Insurance Company
of New York, through the omission OF
the word to-" which the copy con-
tanned, and the displaying of the in
surance commissioners name, possibly
created an erroneous opinion. Mr.
Fell wishes to announce that the ad-
vertisemant, as he intended it to ap-
pear, will occupy the same space Of to-
mOrrow's issue. The error occurred
through his having been called out OF
town. so that he had no opportunity tc

MOB COMPOSED OF WOMEN
1T THIRsTED FOR THE BLOOD OF
WILLIAM CARTER.
Threats of Lynching Because Carter
Had sIashed His Wife with a
Butcher Knife.

There was a hot time yesterday afternoon
In the vicinity OF Tenth and Missouri
streets, and 1t was not due TO the hot wave.
The occasion was one in which about one
hundred colored women gathered about a
colored man in custody of Bicycle Police
men Griffin and Manning and threatened to
lynch him. There were cries of '"The
brute!'' Get a ropel" Hang the -"
Turn him loose here; you won't need no
wagon!' and a hundred other things. The
police were obliged at times to use force to
prevent the women from getting hold OF the
prisoner. In the crowd were about ten
men, who calmly watched the proceedings
with great interest.
William Carter. a colored man sixty years
of age, had slashed his wife with a butcher
knife. They had been separated about a
year. and, his recent attempts to get her
to return TO him having failed. he went
yesterday from Hickey's saloon on West
Tenth street TO his wifes house, 34S Middle
street, carrying a butcher knife.
The trouble started soon after his arrival,
and the woman cries brought to the house
most of the ~neighbors within a square.
Carter made his escape, carrying the knife
away. wrapped in n towel. He left it at the
saloon, where IL was found by the police.
The woman had been cut in three places,
zone of the wounds being dangerous. Car
ter was found, locked up and charged with
assault with intent to kill.

NEW S~CHOOLHOUSES.
Secretary Hurry objects to Use of
Stoves for Heating.

DR.. Hurry, secretary of the State Board
of Health, returned TO his Office in the
Statehouse Tuesday, after a brief vacation
number of letters from county health Of
ficers describing new schoolhouses that are
being completed in various parts of the
State. When the secretary observed that
in nearly every instance the school building
is proposed TO be heated by a stove he be-
came greatly incensed.
'One of the best ways in which TO throw
away money! he declared. lis to expend
1t in heating schoolhouses with stoves. This
is demonstrated by observations that chill
dren who sit near these stoves become
overheated, and are made restless and in
attentive and untitled for study. Those
that sit near the windows are chilly, and,
as a consequence, they, too, are prevented
from studying and progressing as they
should. Both kinds of pupils are rendered
more susceptible to coughs and colds. Now,
inasmuch as we send our children TO school
TO learn and TO make progress, il occurs TO
me that IL is the worst sort OF extrava-
gance TO surround them with conditions
that not only prevent them from studying
but make them liable To disease. Another
objection 10 stoves in schoolrooms Is that
they heat the same air over and over again
and thus proper ventilation is not obtained.
Every one has noticed the frequency or
headaches among school children and the
general air Of listlessness, not to say STU
pidity, in those that attend schools heated
by stoves has also been noted. Why, in the
State Of Massachusetts, and in the other
New England States. and in New York as
well. IL is against the law to heat school
rooms with ordinary stoves. In those
States the health of the children is pro-
tected and their progress assured by heat
ing schoolhouses with yentilating fur
naces.'

AN ASSAULT ON A CHILD
POLICE LOOKING FOR JOHN PARKS,
A FORMER SALOON KEEPER.
His Alleged Victim Is His Stepdaugh-
ter, Thirteen Years OId-Chfld
May Die.

The police are looking for John Parks,
formerly keeper Of a saloon at Mount
Jackson. He is wanted on a serious Grim
inal charge. The complaint was made
several days ago by his wife, who is better
known as Bert" Bruner. They were mar
ried several years ago. She had been
previously married 10 a man named Camp
bell. To them was born a girl, who is now
about thirteen years of age.
Recently Mrs. Parks left home, and her
daughter, Carrie Campbell. was left in
care Of her husband. Last week she re-
turned home one evening and found the
girl had been assaulted. and 1t was claimed
by her stepfather. Parks disappeared at
once, and the police have as yet been un-
able to locate him.
Last night Mrs. Parks could not be
found. She had been living with her sis
ter-in-law, who said she left there Tues
day and she had heard nothing OF her
since. The sister-in-law said also that
she did not know the nature of the child
injuries or where she was being kept.
The story of the assault had been told
by Mrs. Parks TO the keepers of some of
the West Court-street resorts, and to them
she gave the impression that her daughter
might die from her injuries.

urging him to permit his name to be pre-

JUDGE BAKERS POSITION
THE TRADITIONS OF THE SENATE
TAM IN WAY Oh PROMOTION.
Rule Established Years Ago That No
Man Past sixty should be Com
Armed for Circuit Judge.

In all the discussion recently regarding
the appointment 10 nil the vacancy on the
United States Circuit Bench caused by the
death OF Judge Woods it has been con-
coded that Judge Baker would be promoted
and that Senators Beverage and Fair
banks would have to select some one TO
take the chair now held by Judge Baker,
but now there comes from Washington in
formation that throws doubt on Judge
Bakers promotion.
This information is that when Senator
Edmunds was chairman of the judiciary
committee of the Senate. which receives
the recommendations for the appointment
OF federal judges. he and his associates
established a rule that no man should be
confirmed to the Circuit Bench who was
over sixty years of age. 1t is required
that a man must serve ten years on either
the Circuit or District benches and must
have reached the age OF seventy years be-
fore he can retire on salary.
The dispatch also points out that
Judge Bakers service on the District
bench would not count in his retirement
from the Circuit Bench even II the Senate
should waive it's tim~e-honored traditions,
and he would be eighty years old before he
Couiu reune from that DenSh' ~
further said that Judge Baker is six
ty-nine years old and in a year or a
little more he will have served ten years
on the District Bench. Unless the Senate
should waive it's rule in this particular
case he could not be appointed TO the Cir
cult Bench. 1t is appreciated that at six
ty-nine Judge Baker is in full possession
OF his powers. but 1t is presumed this fact
would not affect the general rule Of the
Senate.
Senator Hoar is now chairman of the
judiciary committee, and his conservatism
and respect for the traditions of the Sem
ate are we'll known to the public at large.
IL Is also we'll known here that Judge
Baker would not press his own suit for
promotion, and he has said in an inter-
view that he will not take part in the
contest for the appointment TO the Circuit
Bench. Under the foregoing conditions 1t
is thought in Washington that the Presi-
dent may be called upon TO make only one
appointment. a successor TO Judge Woods
on the Circuit Bench.

WOODRUFF PEOPLE PLEASED.
The Net sum Realized from the Feast
of Lanterns Was s1.130.

At the clubhouse In Woodruff Place last
night a meeting was held To receive the
hraueial report Of the feast OF lanterns re-
Gently given In Woodruff Place. Mr.. T.. NJ.
Campbell submitted the report. which
showed that the net receipts amounted to
$1.139. The highest sum realized at any
previous entertainment was about $500. 1t
was the opinion of the managers that II a
storm had not blown up early on the night
of the feast OF lanterns the net sum real
fzed would have reached the unprecedented
figure of S2.000 or more.
Last night Mr.. w. q. Bates read the
palms of the Woodruff Place people at the
clubhouse. In the makeup of an Arab,
Mr.. Bates did yeoman service for the kin
dergarten fund on the night OF the enter
tainment. and last night he extended the
courtesy TO the residents. AS a UNIQUE
departure from the usual form OF reading
palms he last night had the people thrust
their hands under a curtain so he could not
see the faces of his clients. The result was
most satisfactory. The residents OF Wood
run Place feel proud OF the great success
OF their annual entertainment.
