Of Dakota, furnishes. in experience,
some practical points that have been Of
value in the individual case. While run

giving his employees each check for
their weeks wages, he would invite
them to take tea with him, and after tea
they would adjourn 10 a commercial

and little game Of draw begun, just for
amusement, you know, and before morn

paid out TO the boys, and so on, until
the checks were worn ont. In this way
home industry was encouraged and the

ing followed. Then they kept up see-saw on
each others jaws at close range. The round
closed with cheers for both.
Third round-Both were very wary at frat.
Willis landed his left on Dixon's body and his
right on the jaw. Neither blow did much dam
age.
Dixon rushed and landed on Willis jaw and
body several times, receiving two sharp raps in
return. Both were very quiet and saved them
selves by lodging.
Fifth round-Neither seemed disposed to rush
and force matters. Toward the close there was
sharp rally near the ropes, In which it was
give and take for moment, though Dixon
plainly landed harder. Presently Dixon caught
Willis jaw with his left and sent him down.
Willis rose TO his hands and knees and took
his ten seconds on the floor. He arose little,
but when Dixon rushed him he stood pre-
pared TO receive the attack. He was not able to
30 much, however, and Dixons right soon
came into contact with Willis jaw and the lat
ter went down fat on his back. He lay like q
log. When the ten seconds were up Willis Sec
onds had to lift him from the floor, and Dixon
was declared the winner.
The battle occupied less than twenty minutes.
Willis was knocked out after having had the
worst of hard fight from the very start. Dixon's
style of fighting was not known very we'll here,
and he was not expected to do much rushing,
but he forced the fight from the first round,
rushed Willis hard whenever he could get him
at close quarters, and beat him with
ease Willis struggled hard to hold out against
the colored mans assaults, and in the half
dozen sharp rallies he fought back manfully,
but was not able to hit as hard or as frequently
as his opponent. His quiekness and his ability
TO stand hard punishment saved him from de-
feat earlier, but after being knocked down in
the first round and numerically pounded in
the four following rounds. he was greatly
weakened, and the blow which finally sent him
out was light one compared TO a dozen others
which he had received. DIXON was apparently

Condition of Indi.n schools.

WASHINGTON CRY, July Pr. V. Bell,
assistant commissioner of Indian affairs,
has returned to Washington City after
visit to the Pacific coast, where he went
six weeks ago to open bids and award con-
tracts for supplies for the Indians OF the
Pacific coast for the present fiscal year.
The supplies included groceries, hardware
and agricultural implements. The prices
at which the supplies were obtained is
generally little lower than those for
the past fiscal year. Bell visited
some Indian schools in Arizona and
Mexico, including those conducted by the
government and those known as contract
schools, managed by various religious de-
nominations. Bell speaks very highly OF
the general condition of the government
schools, both in intellectual and industrial
features. He says intellectually they are
in advance of contract schools, but with
respect to industrial training, he can give
no comparison between the two classes.

SPOKANE 12, TACOMA 2.
The Tail-Enders Have No Pitchers and
No Eaters.

SPOKANE, July 2s.-tspecial. Manager Mas
krey tried his third pitcher against the local
heavy weights today. While the drubbing he
received was not so long drawn out al that sd-
Ininistered to mis- fellow boxmen, Donohue and
Tanning, ii was nevertheless q severe chastise-
ment. 1t is demonstrated that Tacoma has not
pitched with sufficient skill with the ball to
cope successfully against Spokane The three men
who have endeavored to deceive the home hitters
with shoots and drops have painfully failed. In
the three games with Tacoma no eye has been
too dim to lose sight of the ball as it came
toward the plate, and the long, hard and
frequent hits have become tiresome to the
Tacoma fielders and monotonous to the specta-
tors. Had the visitors used the stick in fairly
corresponding degree the three games would
have proved interesting.
Borchers and Huston have been too strong for
the tail-enders, and the result of each game has
been grisvously one-sided. Jack Huston was in
the bex for Spokane and was very effective,
keeping the hits down to i've and well scattered.
In addition he was power with the bat Out
of five times at the bat he got two singles, a
double and triple. Flaherty reappeared at his
old stand on third, and smote the ball for two
singles and double. The score:
