POLICE OFFICER SUSPENDED Callaghan it Off tht Tare FtiJing Official InTMtljatioi. RESULTS FROM ARRESTING BERT BROWN Ills Associates In a Secret Order Are Charited with Havlnic Ilonatcd that Trouble for the Hlnr coat Would Follow. Omcer Callaghan has been suspended pending an Investigation. It Is charged that he mado a statement derogatory to Chief Albro in a Main street saloon. The chargo against Callaghan results from his arrest of Bert Brown, a stagehand at the Dohany theater, who Is a melnbor of a secret society which has recently obtained a large membership.

Mayor Jennings was nut of the city yes terday, Ashing at Noble's lake, so nothing can bo dono in tho matter until bis re turn, Callaghan says he is not worrying about the results of the Investigation, which ho feels assured will clear him of any charge unbecoming an officer. NEED OF JHE REPUBLIC Universal Education Is n Duty, Says Dr. White to the Normal Institute. Universal education Is the duty and tho need of the republic was the keynote" of Dr. Emerson E. White's locture beforo. the teachers of the normal Institute last night In tho Broadway Methodist church. Dr. Whlto's reputation as a' public lecturer and educationalist attracted a large audi ence and his address on "Tho Duty of the Hour" held attention. Dr. White said: "Childhood Is a warfare. Botwecn tho higher and lower natures of tho child there Is a conflict for rulorshlp In Us life. On the Isbub of this conflict bang all the ls Bues of the child's future. If the higher nature conquers, if reason and conscience win the throne, out of this victory wilt come a life of honor and beneficence, but' If the lower nature gains dominion man hood may be turned to shame and hopes to ashes. The sweet babe of Askalon became the murderous Herod and tho gentle pupil of the wise Seneca the cruel Nero. "What possibilities of action and Influ ence nestle In the being of a child! No one can look In the face of a pauper's child and possibly foretell, the outcome of Its life. History . Is full of examples of the higher achleyement by those who were born In poverty and lowliness. "Out of the being of the child these three voices plead for Its nurture, Its control, Its education. Whose duty is It to hear this cry of childhood T First, it Is the duty of the father and the mother. The parents of a child are God's' vice re gents on .earth for the high duty of as sisting Its higher nature to victory In thl.v life. The child grows out of the family Into the community, either a blessing or a curse, knd hence secondly the community In which a child Is born has a vital Interest In Its life. The community stands by Its cradle with the duty of making sure its birthright to needed education. Third, the child also becomes a citizen of the state, an element of Its weal or woe. Hence tho state stands by the side of every child born Into liberty and with plenary power to seo to It that the, child Is propared for tho du ties and responsibilities of citizenship. It Is thus seen that there are agencies that stand by the cradle of every child the family, the community and the stato. These three agencies are conjoined In a sacred alliance to help the higher naturo of the child to rulership in Us life to, train the child for manhood and liberty." Then taking up the argument that the state should educate, Dr. White said: "The state should educate as a means of mili tary dofense that It may bo strong In war. Tho stato should educate as a means of Industrial progress that Its people 'may bo rich. Tho state must educate that civil liberty may endure. Education never Im poverishes a .people. The public school is never a source of poverty. The world over It is tho very best of financial investments. Tho school tax Is guano on the fields of the farmer; It gives richness tto tho soil end Industry to the tiller. In all tho past liberty without popular Intelligence has been the sport of civil tempests. "Tho duty of tho hour Is universal edu cation. Tho school must be placed wlthlp easy reach of every child born Into Ameri can citizenship. Whatever else may be dono this must not bo, left undone." In concluding Dr. White said: "We hear much of human rights tho rights :of labor and the rights of women and the rights of capital, but we hear too little of tho one fundamental right, the right of childhood. This Is not only the one funda mental, but the conservator of all other rights. In the conter of clvtllzatton Is the llttlo child. Take wise and loving care of that child and all human Interests are se cure. Neglect that child and civil liberty Is In Jeopardy." The last of the course of lectures tor the normal Institute- will be Friday night, when Rev. F. W. Gunssulus will lecture on the "Later Eloquence of Puritanism." Cars Off the Track. One of a string of refrigerator cars laden with merchandise while being hauled from the freight house track of the Omaha & fit. Louis railway to the main line Jumped the track yesterday afternoon.

It was several hours before the track could be cleared, as the cars bad to be unloaded before they could be righted. When the cars turned over a number of small children were playing by the tracks and two of them had a narrow escape from being caught under the falling cars. Cltjr Settles with Henry Lock. Attorney John Llndt notified City Solic itor Wadsworth yesterday morning that his client, Henry Lock, bad decided to accept the offer of the city to settle his personal Injury damage sutt for $2,000. Then with all tho speed possible Judgment was en tered In the district court against the city for the sum grcd upon. The manner in which" this dataage suit hs been disposed of by the city, council has excited more than ordinary or usual criticism, uiy.AaaUt ltr.il Ui; ncua- ployed in a restaurant in a minor capacity, claimed that October 17 he received severe Injuries through the breaking of ,a de fective sidewalk on Broadway near Seven teenth street. He brought suit against the city for $5,250. Monday night his" attorney, John Llndt, went before the city council and offered to compromise for $3,000. The al'lermen went Into secret session as a committee of tho whole, whoro after an hour's discussion they offered to settle tho suit fqr $2,000. Attorney Llndt stood out for $2,500, but finally took tho $2,000 prop osition under advisement until yesterday morning, when, ns had been generally ex pected, he accepted It. Mayor Jennings, when asked concerning the action of the city council, declined to discuss It, but It is known that ho Is much displeased.

Such evidence as was beforo tho Jury showed that Lash had either fallen or lain down across the track nnd had gone to sleep, his legs being Insldo the rails, whilo his head and body were on the outside. Tho testimony of tho train crew showed that tho cnglno was backing down the track toward the bridge, pulling twelve cars.

Ho at once gavo the signal to tho engineer to stop, but tho distance was too short, Lash was breathing when picked up, hut after giving a few gasps ex pired. The evidence of trio crew was that the train was running not more than eight miles an hour. Tho testimony showed also that several of the cars were not provided with airbrakes and that the headlight on the engine, according to tho opinion of ono of tho witnesses, was "bummy." Tho funeral of Nicholas Lash will be this morning at 8 o'clock from St. Peter's Catholic church. The services will bo con ducted by Father Thomas and burial will bo In the Catholic cemetery.
