FAMOUS EDUCATOR ON TRIAL.
Convicted of embezzlement of Pe
oria, Illinois, city school funds aggrtt
gating nearly a million dollar^ sen
tenced to Joliet penitentiary, parol
ed and induced to give up priv
ate property in partial restitution
for his stealings, Newton C. Dough
erty, formerly President of the Na
tional Educators Association, re
garded as a foremost educator in
America, went on trial in Havana,
111., Mondav on a chtrge of forg
ery growing out of his attempts to
recover lands he had deeded to the
Peoria Board of Education. The
case came up on chango of venue
from the Peoria circuit court and is
being tried before Judge Guy Wil
liams, the youngest circuit judge in
the state.
The record of Dougherty's petty
stealings, covering a period of twen
ty years, rivals the tale of Raffles.
Dougherty hd been president of
the State Normal University at Nor-1
mal, state superintendent of public
instruction, and superintendent of
the Peoria public schools, holding
In the meantime the position as
head of the National Educators As
sociation, later held by Nicholas
Murray Butler and other equally
famous educators. He was also
president of a Peoria bank, and
this position enabled him to pad
the payrolls of the citj schools and
cash the checks without detection.
During twenty years accountants es
timated he stole over $700,000.
An obscure bank clerk gave in
formation which led to Dougherty's
arrest and indictment. He pleaded
guilty, was sentenced to the Jol
let penitentiary and served his
term until paroled in 1912. His
bank went down in thi- crash. Oth
er equally prominent Peorians were
suspected of connection with the
frauds, but escaped indictment.
Shortly after Dougherty entered
the state prison,, Edait> Quinn, a
convicted bank robber escaped. Ed
die Tate, another convict, was pa
roled. Then one morning it was
found that the safe in the offices of
he Peoria school board had been
blown, and in the furnace in *he
building was found tin.* charred re
ains of papers held as evidence
against the convicted school head.
Tate, Quinn, and a third robber,
Eddie Fay, were indicted by the Pe
oria county grand jury after a na
tionwide hunt. Tats was brought to
Peoria but escaped a pcliceman at a
hospital where lie was recovering
from an illness. He was arrested
in Chicago on another charge and
sentenced to Joliet. Fay and Quinn
were never captured. Fay was
■ killed in a running fight following
a big stamp robbery in Virginia.
Quinn was slain by a village marsha
in an Ohio city. Before his parole,
Dougherty turned over to the Pe
oria board extensive lard holdings
in Arizona, Missouri, and Wiscon
sin, and a suit agains'. his bondsmen
yielded $25,000. After his release
Dougherty began suit to recover the
lands. He lost two suits, and was
indicted for forgery in connection
with them, on which charge he was
arraigned Monday.
Neither Dougherty's genius for
crime nor his courage and confidenc
have failed him from the day of
his arrest in 1905 until his arraign
ment Monday.
RULES OF CONDUCT.
Never put off till tomorrow
what you can do today.
Never trouble auother for what
you can do yourself.
Never spend your money be
fore you have It.
Never buy what you do not
want because it is cheap. It will
be dear to you.
Pride costs us more than hun
ger, thirst and cold.
We never repent of having eat
en too little.
Nothing is troublesome that we
do willingly.
How much pain have cost us
the evils which have never hap
pened.
Take things always by their
smooth handles.
When angry count ten before
you speak; If very angry, a hun
dred.—Thomas Jefferson.
FLOWERS WITHOUT FRUIT.
Prune thou thy words. The
thoughts control
Not o'er the swell and throng.
They will condense within thy
soul
And change to purpose strong.
But he who lets his feelings run
In soft, luxurious flow,
Shrinks when hard service must
be done
And faints at every woe.
Faith's meanest deed more favor
bears
Where hearts and wills are
weighed
Than brightest transports, choic
est prayers.
Which bloom their hour and
fade.
—Johu Henry Newman.
