Dennis Arrested.

A warrant was sworn out yesterday
by Robert Christensen OF this town
for the. arrest Of jackson Dennis, ex-
president OF the Sutter Creek State
Bank, on charge of empezZelment.
1t Is alleged that he kept and appro-
priated to his own use and benefit $500
belonging to the complainant. At
present writing, he had not yet been
found. .-Amador Record.
In addition to the above charge an
other warrant was issued on the COM
plant of Dennis Madden charging
Jackson Dennis with embezzlement
of the sum of Sl125O, belonging to
the banking corporation. Sheriff
Gregory when he left here last Fri
day morning, taking the three
prisoners. Ed. and Jack Keyes and Z.
McQuirk, to serve their five years
each in San Quentin for stealing
eight chickens, was armed with the
two warrants for the arrest of Dennis,
the president of the wrecked bank.
lie returned with Dennis in charge
Tuesday evening. Dennis came up
provided with a bond, which was
fixed by justice Goldner at S12, 900 in
the case in jackson. The sureties
were Homer W. Wood, formerly of
the Amador Record, and who has
been an attorney representing Dennis
in the banks complications from the
outset. He is from San francisco.
The other surety is John r. Tregloan,
formerly of Amador City, who is un-
questionably a man of means. Dis.
trict attorney Vicini required that
the bondsmen appear and give salts
factory proof of their ability to meet
the obligation, and the hearing was
to be had yesterday. In the mean
time the accused bank president was
liberated on the strength of the bonds
given.
In the Sutter Creek case the amount
of the bonds required IS $1,000. Jack
son Dennis has been in jackson and
Sutter Creek since he was brought
here by the officers, in the effort to
secure bondsmen. lie is represented
by r.. q. Bole as attorney. On the
two charges it will require nearly
s3S, 200 to secure his release pending
trial.
Peter Dabovich is out on bonds in
connection with alleged shady tran
sactions of the closed bank, in $40,
0OQ, qualifying in double that amount
making S5S, 600 all told.

Just. why people will prefer
to believe the evil reports about
an individual rather than the

seems to be a sort OF perversity
about the human being that
prompts the willingness to &C.
cept the evil rather than the
good. Every community would

fixed policy of all to believe
nothing that is detrimental to
the good name aud standing of
anyone until the most convin.
cling proof to the contrary has
been produced. The fair name
of many good people has been
besmirched beyond the posi-.
bility of repair by the tongue of
the idle gossip who had nothing
more gainful to follow than
peddling slander. The chronic
gossip monger never stops to
find out the truth or falsity of
the rumor, which is usually a
forerunner of the harmful gos-
sip, but proceeds to roll with
much JUNCTION the unclean re-
port about a neighbor, under
the tongue and then proceed to
the retailing.
1t is another perversity of
human nature scarcely to men

should see that due credit is
given to the worthy. But just
let a breath of suspicion but

are ever ready to shout the
shortcomings of a neighbor or
fellow being from the house

little short Of fiendishness and
does not reflect credit on the

real and practical.
The giving of knowledge has
a large place in our schools and
the training of the intellect is
held to. But, in the interests
of accomplishing these, as
we'll as in fitting the individu.
al to apply them and make
them serve him in effectively
living. we are approaching the
child in different way than
formerly.
We are trying to preserve
and strengthen the natural re.
lation between school-includ.
ing the child-on the one hand
and life aud it's activities on
the other. We are beginning
to utilize not only the eye and
the ear, but all the avenues OF
approach to the child's soul
We have learned that the mus.
cles constitute one of the most
effective means of making one
realize that what he learns
from books was outside of
books long before they were
made. We realize more and
more that we learn to do by do
ing and we are begi.: :.ing to
appreciate that we learn to
know by doing and, further.
more, that learn to be by doing.
So, acting upon our present
advanced insight into the laws
that govern the souls activity,
we have manual training,
domestic science etc. in speci.
al and many of our larger city
schools and in our com mon
schools are employing, in vari-
Gus ways, the active rather than
the passive in education. In
the school We are trying to de-
velop the citizen-the man
who knows something. who is
able and willing to do some.
thing. and who will live an
actively virtuous life.
While long strides have been
made toward that degree of
perfection in which the golde n
rule shall determine the con
duct of men, when the physi-
cal, mental and spiritual en-
ergies of the people shall be
dire cted to the end that the
physical. mental and spiritual
needs of the people are to be
most complete ministered unto
yet the time has not come
when we may cease to act
upon the proposition that we
are our brothers keeper. 1t is
our business to help direct the
affairs of the world 80 that the
conduct of the men shall be de
termined less and less by the
restraints that their lives may
move along more harmonious
ly with the larger purposes of
creation by following more
nearly the course determined
by the restraints that come
from within.

ters in peculiar relation
But we bear a larger relation
to these human problems be-
cause of our being members Of
the great family of humanity.
AS teachers and as citizens we
must never, never forget that
the public school is a factor of
utmost importance in making
the man and woman who are
to fit alright in the worlds
business. But We must hold
as tenaciously to the fact that
the home, the church and the
social aud industrial activities
are all important factors in ac-
complishing the same purpose.
Neither must We lose sight Of
the consideration that there is
a place in the life of the teach
