Brinsley Case Closed by Plaintiffs Attor-
neys but Court Denies Non-Suit.
The suit of A. J. Brinsley against
H. c.. Schultz and J. S. Newberry will
probably go to The jury as the Judge on
the bench yesterday denied the motion
of the defendants for non-suit of the
case.
The plaintiffs attorneys completed
their case early Tuesday afternoon
and the attorneys for the defense at
once made the motion for non-suit on
the grounds that the evidence present.
ed by the plaintiff was not sufficient to
allow the case to go to the jury. The
court heard the argument in the mat
ter and denied the motion. The mo-
ton was denied without prejudice and
it may be renewed later in the case.
On account of the pressing business
engagements of Judge Williams the
case will not continue today but will GO
on again on Thursday morning.

Water Commission Lets the Contracts
For Coal at Advance Of Twenty
Gents a Ton.
NO HOPE FOR LOW PRICED COAL
Dealers Assert That Price Will Be Higher
Rather Than Lower Than 1t is at Pres
ent.-Plenty Of Coal in Sight.

Notwithstanding the fact that there
is no coal strike THIS year and that
there is plenty of coal n sight for the
winter the prices for this necessity
promise to be fully as high as they
were at the opening Of the season last
year.
At the meeting of the Water Com
missioners Tuesday night contracts
were made for the supply of coal to be
used by the water company during the
coming winter and the price of the
contract shows an increase of twenty
cents ton over last seasons prices.
The contract for the eight hundred
tons of Morgan Run coal was let to the
George S. Baldwin company at the
rate of $500 ton. The price for the
same grade of coal last season was only
$50 per ton. Mr.. Baldwin has the
coal on hand and there will be no de-
lay in the delivery to the water power
plant.
The officials seem to think that the
contract is very favorable one and
3
of this grade of coal had been expect
ed. While in other years the same
coal had been purchased for a much
smaller price, the rapid increase in
the price Of coal last year seems to
have given the companies license for
the advance of prices on all classes of
fuel.
The anthracite coal supply for Ke-
nosha during the winter is already
practically assured as both of the
larger coal yards in the city are pretty
we'll stocked up with this class of coal
and other cargos are expected before
the close of the season of navigation.
The price that now prevails is $3.50
ton for the coal with no promises for
future delivery at this price. Many of
the larger purchasers in the city have
taken the coal at this price with the
assurance that there will be no reduc-
ton in the price during the winter. In
other cities in Wisconsin hard coal is
being sold at $7.75 and $500 ton and
the dealers expect to get even higher
prices before the season is well ad-
vanced.
The school board recently bought
coal for the city schools from Chi
cago company but as yet no contract
has been made for the supply of an
thracite needed as the companies have
declined to bid on the coal for future
delivery. 1t is probable that this coal
used by the board will have to be pur-
chased at the market price as it may
be demanded for the furnaces at the
different buildings. Many of the pri-
vate consumers have held up their
order for fuel for the winter hoping
that the price may go down to more
reasonable figure.

PETTY LARCENY IN SCHOOLS

Principal and Teachers Caused Consider
able Trouble by Thefts Among Pupils.
Considerable comment has been
caused in school circles in the city on
account of the fact that number of
petty thefts have been reported to the
principal during the past few weeks.
It is claimed that these thefts have be-
come so numerous that it is almost i'm
possible to leave anything of value in
the schoo1-room during the hours when
the teachers are absent.
Some Of the pupils seem to be entire
~ devoid Of honor, and several small
sums of money have been taken re-
Gently from the desks of teachers and
scholars.
The youthful thieves seem to be ex-
ceedingly crafty, and only two Of
the culprits have been located. Re-
Gently one of the teachers left small
sum of money in her desk when she
went home for the noon hour, and
when she returned the money had been
taken. Two young women who were
in the room during the noon hour were
suspected of the crime, and when their
presence was demanded in the Princi-
pals Office they confessed to having
the money.
They were released from prosecu-
tons on promises of good behavior,
but if any more of the children are
discovered in these petty thefts they
will be forced to answer to the crime
Of petty larceny in the courts Of the
city.

Kansas City Correspondence.

1t was midst the quiet Of an aut-
umn evening, that we left our cottage
home in north Marvin for another
sojourn of few weeks in this grand
commercial center of the west.
And as it always, is in this live city
we soon found something to talk
about, something to see, something to
hear. This time our first attraction
was in the direction of the First
Christian church, 18th and Locust St.
on the evening Of October 30. OF
course we first ascertained the admis.
sion fee, aud then after consulting
the size Of our purse we soon found
ourselves at head quarters TO listen to
lecture by Robert j. Burdette. And
to say that the lecture was good
would hardly tell the story. Those
who have heard Mr.. Burdette have
some idea as 10 the fine combination
Of qualities which gives him the
prominence as a public speaker, which
be has so long sustained. Mr.. Bur
dette is a smooth talker. comic and
withal possesses the qualities Of an
orator in no small degree. He is rath-
er rapid speaker and is not very
great favorite with even the most ex-
pert reporter. And suffice it to say
that he held an audience Of about 800
for over two hours, with scarcely a
ripple during this time even among
the fun-lOying fellows who occupied
the rear end Of the gallery.
We have no doubt but that Mr..
Burdette would be In great favor If he
could he induced to make a date for
a public demonstration at Phillips
burg. Has this gentleman ever lee
tured in your city,? II so we would
anticipate no trouble in paving the
the way. II not then 1t would be we'll

Educational Notes.

Pupils in the seventh and eighth
grades should begin to prepare for the
spelling contests.
1t is economy to preserve the
school building by the use of
liberal coat of paint
Parents will find the little book,
phelps and His Teachers" to be
very profitable reading.
Copies of the new school laws can
now be obtained at the superinten-
dents Office by members of the
school boards.
We are entering an era where
character building will be more care
fully studied by the teacher and
greater prominence given to her duty
In this line.
A member Of one school board was
present during the discussions last
Saturday. We extend an earnest in.
vltatlOn to all school officers to attend
these meetings.
Edwin Il. BrOOkenS, County Super
intendent of Smith county and II. H..
Gerardy, City Superintendent Of the
Smith Center schools were visitors at
the Association.
Over fifty teachers at the associ.
alton last Saturday expressed their
intention Of attending the North
West Teachers Association at Nor.
ton during the Thanksgiving holiday.
Patrons should not crlticiSe the
teacher until they have visited the
school. They will usually have a
better opinion Of the teacher If they
become better acquainted with her
and the work she is doing for their
children
Owing to the fact that a number Of
rural mail routes have been recently
established In the county, many
teachers and officers have had their
addresses changed. If any such are
not receiving their mail from the
superintendents Office, they will

to secure his services as an experiment
Mr., Burdette is not among the high
est priced orators, yet he draws the
crowd, and when once heard in a place
he usually attracts the greatest at
tention for ever after. We regard
him an ideal orator for a western
audience.
On last Sunday Morning and even
ing we listened to some pleasant re-
Elections by Rev. DR.. W. A. Quayle at
the M. e. church, corner 9th and
Grand Ave. Mr.. Quayle entertainS
one of the most popular congregations
Of the city, and is deserving all the
honor he receives. About one thouS'
and people greeted him on each OF
these occasions, and seldom, in any
city have we ever looked upon a better
dressed and finer cultured people. 1t
is we'll for those who have imagined at
any time that Kansas City is made up
of an inferior Gloss of people to correct
their error which they can readily do
by visit to the city.
And just now extensive prepare
tions are being made for an important
gathering Of the Board of Bishops
and other eminent dignitaries Of the
M. E. church, who are to come in this
week to discuss some of the most i'm
portant measures connected with the
success and financial standing Of the
church. 1t is q we'll known fact that
our Methodist friends are right at
home when it comes to talk about
the money question; and this seems to
be very largely. the point connected
with the great gathering this week.
The exercises begin on Wednesday
and Bishop Fowler is announced for
the next Sunday, at DR.. Quayle's
church. We may attempt something
more definite for the Herald readers,
under this head next week.
