ALL "HET UP" ON
SCHOOL SCRAP
Town of Brighton Settling
With Excitement Over a
School Difficulty.
TAKE IT TO COURT

The village of Brighton is all excit-
ed over q school trouble which has
been brewing there for several weeks
and which will eliminate in q court
scene on next Saturday morning at the
municipal court in Kenosha when Judge
Tully will hear a truancy charge which
has been brought against James and
Mary Fallon for failure to send their
three children, James, John and Rose
to the little seheelhouse at Brighton
It will not be the first time that the
Fallons have been in court for the
case has been called twice before and
has been adjourned each time at the
request of attorneys.
| Meanwhile the patrons of the school
at Brighton have learned of the difficult
ty and have lined themselves up on one
side or the other of the controversy.
Kept Children from School.
The affair started when the Fallons
who are said to live back in the woods
far from the road, failed to send theil
children to the school. A school of
fetal went TO them and demonstrated
but still the children absented them
selves from Brighton's institution OF
learning. Finally when all other
means failed, Sheriff Rauen was sent
to the home to enforce the law.
The Fallons were not to be easily
coerced. They maintained that they
we're willing to send their children te
school but that they did not agree with
ali of the principles taught there anc
that they had sheen forced to senC
the children all the way to Kansas,
vile in order that they might not grow
up entirely ignorant.
Engage Modern P0rtia.
The Fallons went to Burlington
where they engaged Miss Minnis
Karcher, a lady attorney, to appear fol-
them and fight the case. It will BIZ
her first appearance in the Kenoshs
court and for that reason the cast
will be all the more interesting.
Many of the patrons of the Brighton
school maintain that the whole affair
is "a tempest in teapot" They have
| rallied strongly to the support of Miss
Mary Warren, the teacher there, anG
maintain that the Fallons are entirely
unwarranted in refusing to send theil
children to the school. Miss Warner
is ranked as one of the best teachers
in the county and school officials alsc
declare that there are no grounds fol
any complaint on the part of the
Fallons.

But for two of them, and one a

the raising of that stone. A burly Sus-
sex policeman and l had found it no
light job. What would they do to
assist them? Probably what l should
have done myself / rose and examin-
ed carefully the different billets of
wood which were scattered round the
floor. Almost at once l came upon
what | expected. One piece, about
three feet in length, had a very mark
ed indentation at one end, while sew
eral were flattened at the sides as if
they had been compressed by some
considerable weight. Evidently, as
they had dragged the stone up they
had thrust the chunks of wood into
the Chink, until at last. when the open
ing was large enough to crawl through,
they would hold it by billet placed
lengthwise, which might very we'll be-
come indented at the lower end, since
the whole weight of the stone would
press it down on to the edge of this
other slab. So far l was still on safe
ground.
And now how was l to proceed to

his intelligence, l try to imagine how
| should myself have proceeded under
the same circumstances. In this case
the matter was simplified by Brun-
tons intelligence being quite first
rate, so that il was unnecessary to
make any allowance for the personal
equation, as the astronomers have
dubbed it, He knew that something
valuable was concealed He had spot
ted the place. He found that the
stone which covered it was just too
heavy for a man to move unaided.
What would he do next? He could not
get help from outside, even if he had
some one whom he could trust, with
out the unbarring of doors and consid-
erable risk of detection. 1t was better,
if he could, to have his helpmate in
side the house. But whom could he
ask? This girl had been devoted to
him. A man always finds it hard to
realize that he may have finally lost
a woman's love, however badly he may
have treated her. He you'd try by a
few attentions to make his peace with
the girl Howells, and then would en-
gage her as his accomplice. Together
