Lion Tanner Not Killed.

Word was received here Mon
day evening over the phone from
Oxford that Madame Lascelles, the
lion tanner with Al. F. Wheeler's
show, who was attacked and badly
injured at Oxford a week or more
ago by the lioness, Spitfire, had
again been attacked, and this time
killed. The report happily proved
without foundation, as Madame
Lascelles is still with the show and
giving daily exhibitions with the
treacherous beast.

AS TO HIGH SCHOOLS,

We observe that the city Of Union
has by a unanimous vote of 33 bal
lots decided to establish a high schoo.
under the recent act Of the legislature.
In order to do this, it was necessary
for the township in which the town
of Union is located to join with the
city in forming the high school dis
trct.
AS we have remarked before, this
is an evasion Of the intention Of the
legislature, as we understand it. The
Legislature may have been wrong in
restricting the establishment Of these
high schools to the rural communities
or to towns with less than 1000 inhab-
ltants, but that was what was done,
land as we recall it, the purpose Of
the legislature was to encourage the
consolidation Of schools in th,, rural
districts and the establishment Of
good high schools. SO as to give the
people who live in The country better
school facilities. We are sure that
in the Legislative mind it was the op-
inion that the large towns and cities
OF the state have already good school
facilities, and by this act it was hop
ed to encourage the building and the
maintenance of better schools in the
rural districts. We say this may have
been wrong but certainly that was
the purpose Of the act. AS member
Of the legislature, we voted against
the whole scheme, the reasons fo,
which we arc ready to give at any
time. The state board. however, has
undertaken to say what il thought
ihr legislature intended. and i'm that
way. has construed the law so that
thr cities and towns Of more Than
900 inhabitants may be able to ob
tain the provisions Of thi act
