Justice Cory Falsely Imprisoned

Police Justice George j. Cory is high
ly incensed over his unwarranted ar
rest, which occurred about II 80 last
Monday evening, and besides swearing
out a warrant for the arrest of Officer
Naughtan before Justice of the Peace
johnson, charging him with assault
and battery. and complaining to the Po-
lice Committee of the Board of Alder
men of the policeman's conduct, has en-
gagged counsel to bring suit against the
city for $25, 200 for false imprisonment,
physical injuries sustained, and defama-
ton of character.
According to Justice Cory's statement,
he was sitting on bench in the park
waiting for friend, occupying the end
of one of four seats. Other persons
came along and sat down on the other
three, and few moments later pass
ing colored man became involved in a
wrangle with the trio. Officer Naugh-
ton, attracted by the noise, appeared,
and one by one grabbed the men and
told them to go home, treating Cory as
he had the others. The justice remon-
strated and refused to leave, claiming
that he was only exercising the privi-
leges of free American citizen. JUS
tice Cory was thrown to the ground
and then taken to police headquarters,
refused a hearing and placed in the
lookup, where he remained six hours.
When arranged before Police Justice
Cliff, Cory was at once discharged.
The charge made by the officer was one
of drunk and disorderly, which he
claims is entirely untrue.

MISS DANA'S TO REOPEN.
New Faces Will be Seen Both
Amona Teachers and Scholars.

| FHuHSHS sGES0GFS ana OCnoI6ES.
The reopening of Miss Dana's School
is always of interest to this community
for the school has been so long in our
midst that its pupils are found in many
homes, showing the practical results of
that theory of individual instruction
which is fundamental in the plan of the
institution. The operation of this theory
is furthered by the excellent arrange
ment of classrooms, studies and periods
of instruction, which conduce at once to
the health and mental progress of the
student.
The social life of the school is an inn
portant feature. Throughout the school
year receptions, concerts, piano recitals
lectures and dramatic entertainments
are given. A physical culture class is a
part of the regular course of the school,
Besides this, it is provided with an am
pie athletic ground, arranged for tennis
courts, basket ball field and other sports,
in which the students take lively in
terest
The corps of instructors remains the
same with the exception of Miss Knox,
who has been added this year as instruc-
tor of Greek and who is graduate of
Smith College and sister of the regis
trar of that institution.
In the musical department, Miss Lyon
together with Miss Margaretta Taylor,
who succeeds Miss Schelling, and Miss
Beckwith will give to that work their
! best efforts. Miss Margaretta Taylor,
whose connection with the school begins
this year, was for four years student
at the Leipzig Conservatory and,
after graduating from there, studied as
private pupil with Silotti, the well
known pianist and composer. Miss
Beckwith, who with Miss Merwin, Miss
Lyon and Miss Taylor, has been abroad
this summer has devoted much of the
Nine. Torpadie Bjorksten of New York.
will be at the school once a month and
will, with Miss Trowbridge, supervise
the vocal work. Miss Cochrane, who is
in charge of the art department, has
been abroad all summer and brings to
her work this year increased artistic in
spiration. Many of the teachers have
returned to the school and those still
absent are expected to arrive the last of
next week. Fraulein Engell will sail
for home this week.
DR.. Albert Erdman, pastor of the
South Street Presbyterian Church, will
have charge of the senior and junior
classes in Bible History. With the
principal, Miss Grouse will share the
daily visiting of classes.
The spacious rooms throughout the
Seminary are receiving the final touches
and renovations and will be in readiness
to welcome the young ladies on the
| 25th instant, In order to accommodate
the increasing number of applicants,
the beautiful Chisholm residence on
! Madison Avenue has been leased by
Miss Dana for the coming year and will
be occupied as an annex. 1t is antici-
pated that from ten to fifteen pupils
will occupy this, under the charge of
Miss McIlvaine. This will give added
facilities to the many which Miss Dana
has always placed at the students COM
mand and will undoubtedly add greatly
to the success of the institution.
