FAILURE OF NAT SHEPARD. A Newspaper Man Complains Itccansc u Teacher Whipped Ills Hey Car- r\KK'H \ Con tempt Case Funeral of Samuel Anderson. Title to the Park. The Bii : : yesterday morning called ittention to an apparent move to wre&t rom the city , if possible , the beautiful "iiirmuunt park. The article caused no ittle stir , and there are numerous in- liiiries as to what move is lobe made on ho part of those who , by the record , ippoar to be securing at least a color of itlo to this valuable tract. It is ru- norcd that ere long there will bo no tices of suit and that the chief claim will est upon tin ) technical defects in the condemnation proceedings by which the ity came into po esMon of this park. No one seems to know , or at least to bo willing to make public , the plans and Nirposes. There have boon several leeds passed lately , by which it appears nat the foundation is being laid for a egal light. A deed has gone on record conveying to Mr. C. Ilaldane , of the law inn of Wright , Baldwin & Ilaldauc , all if E. S. Williams' interest in the park. \Tow there appears a deed by which Mr. Inlduno conveys it to Jason Walker , of Wichita , Kan. There is a good deal of nystery attending the affair , but it is M'cating considerable alarm , the atten- ion of the public being now directed to ovorv move which can possibly tilTcct be title of the city. There being a 'feeling that the move jad for a center the law ollleo of the inn named , inquiry u as yesterday made if Mr. John N. lialdwin , with the hope that he might throw some light upon it. Mr. Baldwin smiled as ho denied mowing anything about it. It was ) iio of those smiles which could not but > o interpreted , ' 'Well , young man , I could toll you a good 'deal , but it's eally none of your business just yet. don't want to lie to you , but I don't want to toll. " His words were much in accord with lis smile. "There is nothing for you lo earn about it so far as wo arc con- erned. It is simply a business matter jolonging to the lirm of Wright , Bald win \ Ilaldane , and not to the public , i'ho statements that suits are to bo eom- neneed are certainly not made by any- nio having authority to speak in the matter , and are not made by any one ' ' who knows anything about it. I 'don't are to have our private business mat ters made public. When the time comes when there is anything which the pub ic ought to know , I will see to it that the BKI : lyis the information soooii as ny paper. Of course you newspaper L-llow-5 feel at liberty to give your read- rs all sorts of news , and that is all right , but you'll have to wait awhile bo- 'oroyou can got anything authoritative in regard to this matter. " The park commissioners are never theless liable to be put to sonic trouble , for the recent deeds show there is some thing going on which points to the jeopardizing of the city's title to the park. Whether any claim can bo main tained is a question , but that there will be an attempt made to either wrest the park from the city or force a compro mise is quilo evident , despite Mr. Bald win's reticence in regard to the private business of his lirin.

Yesterday morning the case of the State vs Carrigg was called. Before this was proceeded with ono of the at torneys for the defense in the contempt case of the State vs Heitman asked that the case go over to the next term as Colonel Sapp , his associate , was away. The court thought the other counsel ought to familiarize themselves with the case and to allow time for this , the hearing was postponed for ono week. The State vs Carrigg was resumed. Defendant's attorney demurred to Mr. Sims' appearance as counsel for the state and entered a motion to showeauso why ho so appeared. The ground was taken that the case was a criminal pros ecution and the-district attorney was the only person authorized by the state to prosecute. The motion as to showing cause was inaintniticcl. Mr. Sims was sworn and deposed , giving his employ ment by the "Law and Order League" and his authority frrtm District Attorney ThorneU in December 1SSO. The de fense objected to the insufliciency of this employment , and assumed the po sition that t'ho present district attorney , Colonel Dailoy , and ho nlono should prosecute , in the name of the statocrim- innl proceedings. The state attempts to show the own ership of Carrigg to the property wherein the saloon is located and that liquor has boon sold and drank there since the enjoinment of the place. About half a do/en witnesses were ex amined and probably as many more will yet appear on behalf of the state. The case is being hotly contcsled and will probably consume so\'eral days. Notice.

A Hey There was qnito a little stir made among tlio educational circles ye.stor- day by charges made by Mr. Lynclmrd , of the Council Hlntls Herald , tluit his t.top ton , Perry Howard , had been un mercifully Hogged by two of the lady teachers in the Pierce street school. Tlio matter is being inquired into , and until tome dellnite report is made 01 formal action taken by those who have charge of the schoolh , it is hardly just to pass judgment upon the action of the young ladies , \vho o reputation as teachers are , to a certain extent , in volved. On the part of the family it is claimed that the boy committed a trivia offense , failing to prepare n , declama tion , and'that aftor'school ho was made to kneel on tv bench with a low back mid bend forward , while ono of the teachers hold his arms and the other applied the rod M > unmercifully as to give the bo\ lreat pain and leave bruises which wil keep him in the hou o hovoral days The teachet-b * uy that they only . pun- shed the boy as usual in such cases , and that they ba'd no idea that he was being flvun any more pain than was to bo ex- iccted , and without \\hich the punish- nent would only be a farce. Superin tendent MeNaughton examined the boy , 'esterday and found there were some > lack and blue spots , but it is claimed that these are very easily made on a 'hild's flesh. The boy was not injured n any respect and the marks indicated simply that ho had been given a good rouncing. The fact of there being two teachers concerned in the atTalr is ex- ilainod by the rule of the board which equires that any teacher whipping a inpll shall have another teacher present is n , witness , this beingdcemed as much i protection to the pupil as to the eacbcr. The purpose of this rule is to ivoid any trouble , cither from the undue severity of the teacher in anger or the Misrepresentations of u pupil as to what , he punishment was. The instrument used in this case was just what has been ii od in the Pierce street and oilier schools for some time it being a piece of hickory , three feet long , about three- quarters of an inch wide and an inch .hick. This seems a pretty solid strik- ng machine , but when it comes to the -ottlement of what sort of an instrument s to be used there is Held for wide dif- 'orcnce of opinion. The board has ilaccd this weapon in the hands of eachers , and must bear the responsi- lility of this. The teachers are re sponsible for the way they use it. The aso seems to bo simply a question vbethor the boy was whipped too se verely. The board seems inclined to the belief that he was not.

Financial Distress. There was much surprise caused yes terday by the announcement in business circles that Nat Shepard , the druggist at No. 122 Main street , had made an assign- nont. Mr. Shejmrd has been in busi- less here for about seven years , having sold out at Woodbine and removed icre. Ho has the confidence of the niblic and despite his financial troubles lis heaviest creditors have no less faith , n his integrity of intention limn before. [ lis assignment was to W. A. Wood , who was formerly in the hardware bus- ness hero. The assignment embraces everything and is for the benefit of all lis creditors , there being none pre ferred. The liabilities are estimated it $2,000. The stock of goods is thought to amount to about 12,0(10 ( and the book iccounls to about as much more. There will be some shrinkage probably on the islets and there is little prospect for the liabilities to diminish. His heaviest creditors are right in the city and they liavc not been pressing him. In fact there has been no intimation or any fear but that ho would bo able to pul'l through all right , so that his assign ment eaino unexpectedly. It is be lieved that no creditor will loio a dollar lar and that theio will bo a margin bo- sides. It is surely so hoped , for Mr. Shcpard is a most honest aad worthy citizen. Von AVant Them.

A 1'uget Sound Co-Operative Colony , San Francisco Chronicle : About two yearsagoafow lirin believers in cooperation ation determined to establish a colony on the Pacific coast where all should bo workers and all should alike reap the bonolltsof their toil. They teen secured a number ol followers , and as aresult , in May , 18\SO , the Puget Sound Co-oper- utivo Colony \Vus incorporated , and im mediately afterward purchased u piece of timber land at Port Angolesf seven teen mllns from Victoria. H. C. . on the AmorieanJ-Ido of Iho Straits of .Tuan do Fuca. A few energetic colonists started to build houses , and from that time up to the present the colony has continued to grow ptcadilv , and is now reported to bo in a nourishing condition , numbering 2.600 people. They own ! ? ,000 acres of line timber land'ano have n saw mill running in full blast , which cuts -10.000 'cot of lumber in en hours , and are put- ing up a large bhluglo mill.

A newspaper devoted to the doc trines of co-operation , etc. , is published it the colonv , and a tramway is being juilt from the saw mill into the center ) f the timber land to convey the logs to the saw. The harbor is said to be the best on .he sound , and is three miles long by two and a half wide , with good inchorage. A survey for an ovor- 'and railroad has been made , lead- ng through the colony's land. Kvory person , from the president down to the commonest laborer , works eight hour * a day and receives a regular salary , which runs from S12.76 to $ H a day , and at the end of each year th net iH-ollts of the entire colony are divided into two partSj one-half being sot aside 'or general improvements , and tlio Hher half divided among the workots , , n proportion to the amount of wages received during the year. Tlio town property is divided into 3,000 lots , and no member is allowed more than forty-eight lots , which lie . an only use for his own purposes , there ijeiug no such thing as rent allowed.
