AN OLD ACADEMY.

Cut tho Cherry Tree.
Oldest Educational Institution in

Intorertting History «I Newark Academy |
Speolnl CoirospoDdence Gaxotto and .Journal
Newark. Sept. 17.—H is a fact little
known and less appreciated that the Acnd
of Newark is not only the oldest edu
cational institution in the'State, but of its
kind the oldest in tho country, having
been established when George'Washing
ton's young head was inflamed with a
desire to put on his first new boots,
tilled with the seed of filial disobedience
which later manifested itself in the cherry
free incident of American history. When
the immortal George was about 15 years
old the Academy of Newark was well
established as a good Presbyterian school,
and it is the common belief that if George's
father had sent him 1 1 ere. ns he contem
plated, the cutting down of the cherry tree
might have been wholly avoided. But, if
there is cause for regret on tills hand,
there is even more discomfort in the re
jection thet he might have imbibed the
of the school, which
thoroughly ealvanistic. But none of these
lliings occurred, and a Delaware school
has not the imperishable honor of having
b»*en the tutelary father of the "father of
his country." This little digression, how
ever, is meant merely to emphasize the
piity of this institution, us being con
temporaneous in its early history with the
boyhood of Washington.
Tile acudemy of the present dav is
vastly different in spirit and purpose from
what it was intended to bo by its founders.

THE CIIAROR.
DETAILS
Albany, Sept. 17.—Labor Commis
sioner Peck and his strenographer,
Egbert Rogers, arc under arrest. Hav
ing failed in all their efforts to get the
original returns on which the commis
sioner's disputed tariff report was based,
the Anderson committee have made a
desperate move. They charge Mr. Peck
and his secretary with burning the
papers which ho lias doclined to let
them see. The action brought is for
destroying public records. The movers
in tho matter are District Attorney Eaton
and Mr. Anderson's counsel, Norton
Chase. The accused were allowed to go
recognizance after tho
warrants wore served last night.
The opponents of Commissioner Peck
say that a private detective who was
hired by the Anderson coraraltteo to
watch for just such an emergency saw
a bag of papers brought to Mr. Peck's
rooms from his offleo last Sunday und
burned in the furnace. They also say
they have procured portions of un
burned documents which prove to bo
returns made by manufacturers for his
report. Those concerned in the prose
cution are all prominent Cleveland men
and refuse to talk about the affidavit on
which the warrant was granted. It is
learned, however, that it was made by
the janitor, whose name is \V. J. Dentil
. It is alleged that ho burned the
papers Sunday night and was paid $2
for doing it. It is also claimed that the
charred fragments furnish all tho evi
dence that could be desired.

St. Louis, Sept. 14.—John Davis, 70
years old, is lying at his home in a pre
carious condition, with chances all
against his recovery. Tice Hutsoll, 20
years younger, is at tho City Hospital
suffering intensely, but improving grad
ually, with chances iu favor of recovery
after a long siege.
These men un each suffering from
bites indicted by tho other. Davis is
of the best-known Horse trainers in
of considerable
the west and is
wealth, flutsell was his assistant, and
the two men have been close frieudB for
twenty years.
A week ago last Saturday tho two
quarreled at the fair grounds, and
Davis seized a pitchfork and dealt
llutscll a savage blow. They fought
like demons, and tho stable boys having
removed tho pitchfork, tho quondi
friends were left to light it out with
nature's weapons. llutscll tried to
gouge Davis' eyes out, and had the
thumb almost bitten from his right
hand. Davis tried to choke Hut
sell, and the latter bit the first joint off
the index finger of Davis' left hand.
The light lasted for over half an hour,
and only ended when tho men were too
exhausted to continue.
The two men hud their wounds
dressed. Two days after the light Hut
soll's arm began to swell. Two days
later tho limb was three times its natural
size, and the swelling had gone to the
body. Hut sell mad«* his way to the dis
pensary. Dr. Fitzpatrick sent him at
once to the City Hospital. There Dr.
Marks examined the patient, llutscll
in a serious condition. His eyes
msly, and the muscles of
his body twitched continuously, giving
the appearance of St. Vitus'dance. In
addition Hutscll's speech was affected.
Dr. Marks at once treated llutscll,
and llutscll will probably be able to
leave the institution m the course of a
Week. Not so with Davis. He paid
attention to his wounded linger,
kept on with his training. The hand
bega n to swell,and Davis says the agony
was iiiudsciibnblo. In his own words,
ho did not sleep 20 minutes during the
10 days which elapsed after he received
