DIR. Winder. of California, who has
been among the Indians for 30 years says
that no white man can hope to equal
their physical development. They do
not train, but are born in that way, and
the average Indian boy Of IS can stand
more fatigue than an athlete among white
men. Small pox and bullets are about
the only thing which can kill them.

The degree to which America offers
prominent advantages to the emigrant is
Just now shown strikingly by the exist
ing conditions in Ireland. 1t is said that
that country is gradually becoming de-
populated owing to the constant emigra-
ton of ito people of the shores of Canada
and the United States. These emigrants
send back such favorable accounts of their
new home that Others quickly follow. 1t
is estimated that 10000 natives, nearly a
fourth ofthe whole population have left
the country in the last year. The emf
grants are said to be chiefly from the
northern and eastern districts, where la
Dor is carried on only under great diff
culties, besides which recent harvests
have been very bad and have entailed
much suffering.

THE APPORTIONMENT MADE
SCHOOL MONIES ToTHe COUNTIES
Marion County's Allowance Based on the
Enumeration Made by Mr.. Peck-Great
Falling OF in Many Counties
What commissioners Say.

Monday the superintendent of public
instruction made the semi-annual appor-
tionment OF the common school revenue
for tuition among the various counties of
the state. The law requires this distribu-
ton to be made on the fourth Monday OF
May and the first Monday in January.
The apportionment made yesterday is
based on the enumeration OF school
children between the ages of six and
twenty-one, recently made and returned
TO the state superintendent by the county
superintendent The amount distributed
is Sl,02l, 543.56, collected from three
sources-the interest on the common
school fund loaned out through the
county auditors, the state school tax
of 10 cents OH the 500 collected by the
counties, and the unclaimed witness fees.
The revenue derived from liquor IL
censes is distributed by the county auditor
among the various school corporations of
the county according to the enumeration.
The enumeration OF al the counties
having been approved by the state super
intendent and the distribution made ac-
cordingly, the matter is closed for the
N1ag dpDOEIlOndlCuI anu the january ap-
portionnent also. Even should the re-
enumeration to be made by the
school teachers of this city show
a gain over the Peck enumeration, upon
which the state superintendent appor-
toned Marion county's share OF the
common school revenue, no changes could
be made by the superintendent. The city
might have resort to the courts and man.
date the superintendent, but this is doubt
full.
The following table shows the enumera-
ton of 1890 and 1891, also the total
amount received from the counties from
the three sources referred to above, and
the amount each county receives on the
basis of Sl.32 for each child of school age
enumerated. it will be seen that num-
bsr OF counties receive more money than
they collect and turn over TO the state

Ny decision In the Bowen and Myer glove
fight is as follows: Fight decided on fouls; all

ALEXANDER BREWSTER
The above decision has generally been
accepted, but there is much commenicon-
corning it. Under prize-fghting rules, as
generally understood. when one man fouls
another he loses the fight. The referee
decided that Myer had fouled Bowen; in
fact, the ioul was SO palpable that almost
every one OF the 1000 spectators present
saw il. This was generally regai ded as
giving Bowen the fight, but the action of
the referee today settles the matter differ

and they are numerous argue that under
such ruling, hereafter. when fighter finds
he is whipped he has only TO foul his OPP
ponent to get one-half the purse and en-
able his friends TO get back any money
