La "MAFFIA" EN- NUfVA YORK
De La Disouss6n dc la Habana)

(De La DascatsS6a dc la Habana)
Voy rcferir mis- lectores un su-
eeso, que parece copiado al pie de Ia le-
ira de las memorials de Monsieur Lecock,
ell celebre agente de policfa frances.
Hace pocos dias, una mujer que Sc
dirigfa & su trabajo, not6 que en- una
esquina de 10 calle Elizabeth habfa un
barril, Y dentro del barril una manta de
tiaje de fino paf1o inglSs. Acerc9se con
Objeto de examinar aquella prenda, que
podfa valer de ounce & veinte <dollarss,
AdmirAndose de que en- una barriada
tan pobre, existiese algujen capaz de
Arrojar un barril de basura un lienzo
de tanto valor. De repente retrocedi6
horrorizada.
Dentro del barril, envuelto en- la
manta, habfa un hombre asesinado!
Acudi6 la policfa Y Sc condujo ell
cadAver 4 la Morgue. Presentaba tre-
ce heridas de arma blanca en- ell cuello,
doce de pequefias dimensiones una, la
Ultima probablemente, de proporciones
snormes: una tremepda cuchillada que
secclonaba por complete la garRanta.
La vlctlma estaba Vestida con elegancia,
era de mediana estatura, podia tener
dc 50 40 amos y con toda seguridad
era de raza meridional.
Los agentes de la secreta v los de-
tectives del Central Office empezaron
investigar. A las dos horas de conocido
el crimen, una red policiaca habfa sido
tendida sobre New-York, el TELEGRAPH
funcion6 en- todas direcciones dando de-
talladas descripciones de la vfctima, Y
cuarenta peri6dicos de gran circulaci6n
pubIicaron su retrato. Muchos italianos
v griegos fueron conducidos la Nor
que para que identiicaran ell cad6ver
pero ninguno habia visto a la vfctima
jamas.
AL siguiente dia, dos detectives del
Central Office acudieron al necrocomio,

Three Hundred Dollars Damages

The law suit between DR.. G. NJ
Jordan and DR. J. NJ. Barnett tried
at Dunmore before Squire Hudson
resulted in a judgment for DR.. Jor-
dan of $500 and costs. An appeal
was taken to the Circuit Court.
DR.. Jordan had sued for damages
en- the ground that DR. Barnett had
sold him his medical practice and a
house and lot at Frost and had
afterwards returned to that point
and commenced to practice again.
DIR. Barnett's defense was that the
same matters were pending in the
circuit court; that medical prac-
tee cannot be made subject of
sale; that the remedy is ret by a
Carriage suit; that at the time he
sold the house and lot ut Frost he
had been removed from that field
for three years; and he produced a
written contract with DR.. Jordan
as to such sale in which nothing
whatever was said about the prac-

Public School Closed

On last FRIDAY evening the frs
end third grades of the Monterey
public school. Prof. Stout and Mis-:
Wilson teachers, completed the
term of five months, and both have
entered upon private schools, the
terms of which will be two or three
months. Y
The only way in which the clos.
ing days differed from the other
quiet, peaceful, hard working days
of the public term, was by stiff
examination which extended over
all the territory that had been coy
cred during the session.
Now. that the work has been so
carefully aud completely rounded
mp so far, and the pupils, by their
five months work and training
have just arrived at the point
where they can do more work in
the next two months than they did
in the last five, we would urge that
they be permitted to continue
through the private school. The
amount each patron will have to
pay is small indeed when pared
with the benefits that will accrue
to the pupil. Instead of it being
five months in and seven months
opt, let us at least reverse. the
order, il no more, and make it
seven months in and five months
out.
Miss Burke who teaches the in
termediate grade, net having com
nienced her work with the other
teachers, has yet about five week )
to teach. before the public term OF
that department. is complete.
As to the success of the school,
in all it's departm ents. it is due the
teachers that we state that we
have heard no word of condem-
nation prorodnced against them.
This is a remarkable fact when we
remember how many there are to
have "a say" But we have heard
decidedly complimentary remarks,
bv patrons of the. school, which, in
clude all the teachers, to the effect
that their children have been we'll
managed, carefully and skillfully
taught, and that the school, AS a
whole, has been conducted in a
manner that has, largely coiitribet-
ed to the best interests Of the gen
eral public.
Let us continue to stand by our
school and our teachers. and not be
content with past achiel elnents.
