The Body of Reuben Beebeo Discovered in His Brother's Comfield, THE SCHOOL TREASURER NOT ENJOINED. The Great Damago Oase on Trial— Close of the Federal Court— Minor Mention and Per= sonal News and Notes, The body of R, T. Beebee, the missing brotherof H. C. Beelee of this city, was found yesterday afterncon in a little ravine ina cornfield within two miles from the home of his brother, near Beebeetown, Harrison county, Tt will be recollectel that Mr. Bee- bee was the unfortunate man who was af- flicted with tem porary aberration, and started from his home in this city tovisithis brother in Harrison county, and was taken to the door of the brother's residence at o'clock at night by some mneighbors who brought him out from MissoursValley. It was supposed at thetime that ho had waiked upto the door and not dnding it open obeyed ausual whim and started away without making his pres- ence known, and wandered around until he was lost. There were huidreds of people searching for the missing man, asd it was supposed that every place in the fields and woods wherethe body could gbejeoncealed within an area of ten or twenty miles had been searched. The e nig parties had gone over tho place in which the body was eventually found and examined it carefully. When it was discov y afternoon it was lyingin the ravine partily covered with waterand hidden by grass and weed. The body wus ina condition that an unde taker would call “good” and not in the ad- vanced stage of decay that would natural be expected. This fact, coupled with the a ditional one thathe was teraibly emaciated, gives color to the betief thatthe poor fellow has been wandering around the country the or part of thesix weels that have clapsed o he lost his way. Ttis probable, too, lie lived some time after hefell into the ditch and was too weals te get out, Tho banks gave cvidence that he had made man attempts to raise himself ap until he final fell exhausted and died. My H. C. Beebee left yesterday afternoon immediately after the receipt of the informa- tion and will superintend the aran gements for the removal of the body to this civy, — HENRY EISEMAN & CO, 510, 512 Bromdway— Special Bargain Sale for This Week, Best comfort alicons (fast colors), 4o Standard brand calicoes, fe. igo blue calicoes, Ge.

The par- ticulars of the transactions in Monna county were all gne over with a viey of convineing tho jury that Mr. Burke had acted honestly andsquarly in geiting pos- session of the cattle, andthathis indictnent forlarceny was unfist. Attorney McCabocondicted the crossex- amination, which was sharp, and attimes so aggravating that Mr. Burke would give equilly keen edged replics, these occasinal passages being about theonly bits of enliven- ment in the proceedings, There was a lirgo attendance, and the baille is being foight strongly on both sides.

The School Treasurer Not Enjoined, There wasa greit deil of complaint among the school veachers yesterday because they fuiled to get their monthly salaries, which should have been paid if the custom that has been followed for the past decade had been adhiered to. The teachers went t the treas. urer, J, W. Peregoy, and were informed that he had been enjoined by the board from pay- ing in the usual manner, and in ans to their inquiries informed them that President Stewart had served a notice upenhim to that effect and showed the disappointed appli- cants a formidable looking document written upon atypewriteron legal cap paper. The word ‘“enjoined,” and the cursory glance at the legal looking document, created the im- pression that the president of the board had procured aninjunctionund had it served i the usual manner. Inavery short time the news had spread all over the city thatsuch a proceeding had taken place,and there was in- tense indignationamong the teackers. 1t wis said that tho reason that the injuetion hud been procured was theomission” of Super tendeat MeNaughton'sname from the pi ds onthe hoard haa ¢ tostop the payment of all the sali- ries until McNaughton's was allowed. The people whoread and recallected T BEE's teport of the prceedings of the last mecting of the board of education knew what the situation was, butthe story came from so many sources that it was finally oelieved that the president of the buard bad ‘been guilty of a little piece of spite work, and be was “roasted”’ vigorously, The factsare that atthe hist meetingof the board the matterof anerroieous payment. of about£20 toone of theteachers was brougit up by Mr. Hunter, who suggested that tho od “way of paying the sularies should e changed in some way that would prevent the possibility of such an ervor being repeated, He thought the payroll should be under the direet chage of the baard, and no salaries should be paid exceptuponits approval. The minutes were referred to and disclosed the fact that the board had, at its first meeting alter the election last spring, passed aresoli- tion authorizing the president and secretary to issue the teachers” orders in the usual way at thelast of the month in accordance with the payroll, which was approved by the board afterit wasmade apat the beginning of the year. Mr. Hunter thought this wis nota very wise plan, us it left the matter wholly in the hands of the president ande secretary, He thought it should be changed, but declined to take theresponsibility of making a motion to that effect. — The rwident stated what the practice had been and called attention to the fact that the president and secro- tary were acting oily under fhe orders of the board, md if the board desired to change its orders some member should makea motion to do so. Mr. Wells moved thit nomore salwies be viid untilthe payroll was presmted to the boara cach month and approved. The president called attention (o the fact that this would worka hardshipuponthe teachers by keep- ing them out of their pay until after the rog- lar monthly mectingon ~ tho third Monday. The motion was put after it was seconded by Mr. Schoentgen, and was camied by the votes of Mos Tunter, Wellsana Schoent- gen, Blaxsim and Wiite voting aginst it, President Stewart refraining from voting, - This left the matterin sich acondition that the president and secretary had no other course to pursue thanto refuse to issue the ovders to the tewchers, For his own guidance the president sent the following letter to roasurer Peregoy, whichthe teachers sup- posed to be theinjunction referred to: Lops.

It was proented bythe secretary with thenamoof Superintendent McNaughton omitted, and Mr, Wells moved that it beapproved and ordered paid, The motion was smended by Mr, Blaxsim to include the name of Prof, McNaughton. On the vote on the amendment that followed Wells, Hunterand Schoomtgen voted no, and Waite, Blaxsin and President Swwarty The vote on the original motion showi Wells, Schoentgen and Hunter in favorof it, and Waite, Blixsin and the preident op- posed. Bothmotios were decliared lost, Wells then renewed his motion for the approvalof tho pay roll s it stood and that it beordered paid. The sime deadlocking vote defeated it. At this junture Schoentgen, Wells and Hunter took their coats and hats, and with- out in l«lrnun}( the board what they con tenplated, left the room.
