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. Brown was discharged
In police court and Callaghan filed au In
formation before Justice Ferrler charging
him with resisting an officer. Tho case
was taken on a change of venue to the
court of Justice Bryant, where a hearing
was partly had.
It Is alleged that members of the se
cret order to which Brown belongs have
openly boasted that It would "get Cal
laghan's scalp" and that one or two othor
officers had better "tread" a little care
fully In the future or they might nnd the
same fate as Callaghan.
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. Before
the cars could bo brought to a stop four
left the track and two wero turned over
on their sides. 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.
INQUEST ON NICH0LAS LASH
Coroner' Jury Hold Mllrrnnkee Itall
rond nnd Its Employes
allantoic, f
The inquest held yesterday morning by
Coroner Treynor over Nicholas Lash, who
was run over and killed Monday night on
tho Milwaukee track between Ninth and
Tenth streets, resulted In tho Jury bring
ing In a verdict that the man's death was
due to being run over by a Milwaukee en
glno and that no blame Is attached to tho
railroad or tho cnglno crew for tho accident.
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.
Tho switchman who was standing on th
footboard of the englno did not percelvo
Lash until the train was within fifteen
feet of him. 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. Lash leaves
a widow and five young children In poor
circumstances.

the raro opportunity for splendid decora
tion afforded,
Tho commission will recommend that

slighted anywhere. The capltol commis
sion was nbollshcd whllo there was yet at
