TRUSTEE OUSTED. He Was Charged With Selling Whiskey to Pupils, The unusual thing of ousting school trustee from oflice was done by order.of the county superintend- ent last Saturday, As stated in the Mirror, charges of impeachment were preferred against C, M. Bright by E F. Curtsinger, both trustees in’ the Fancy Farm district. Bright was accused of conduct which would, if true, render him ineligible to the of- fice. The particular charge was that he had sold or furnished liquor to mioors, children of the district in which he was trustee. The trial came up Saturday before Superintendent Mctivodwin, the charges were sustained to the satis- faction of the superintendent, and sbe made an order removing him from office, and appointed RL. Cash in his place. Bright said he intended to take ap appeal to the state superintendent. This is perhaps the first case of this kind ever in this county. Miss Cameron Boone has filed suit by her attorney; Will Stanfield, against the I, C. railroad for $1,000 damages, whici she says she sus- tained by being put off the traio, and by the miscarriage of her baggage, through the negligence of the com- pany’s agents, 4 She purchased a ticket last sum. mer for Nasbville and wanted to go by Fulton, but the agent here made a mistake and gave her a ticket by Nortonville, The mistake was not noticed until she had boarded the train and was well on the way to Fulton, The conductor put her off at Pryorsburg, and she had to retura home and go by Nortonville, while the baggage was checked the other way.—Mayfield Mirror.
