HOW KELLIHER WAS KNOCKED OUT.
ST. PAUL. March 27.-At the New
market Club Denny Kelliher, the Boston
boy. was defeated in eight rounds by
Billy Smith, the Australian. The match
was for 81 900 side. Smith fought at
1857 pounds and Kelliher at l5S. After
a ring iangle Jimmy Manning was de-
cided on for referee. ChaS. Van Hess
and Billy Manning, of Buffalo, looked
after Smith, while Pat Killen and Tom
Mccarthy did duty for Kelliher Smith
stripped magnifcently, looking every
pound of his weight and fighter
from the head down. The gloves
used were six ounces, altogeth-
er too heavy for effective work.
Smith led off with left-handed
smash in the jaw, Kelliher upper-cut-
ting ineffectively. The Australian
opened up to a hot pace, chasing his
man all over the ring, and landing right
and left in good shape. kelliher dodg-
ed ceverly and kept away from the
heaviest blow. turning short round on
chase and landing hot upper-cut IN
the ribs. Smith fought his man all over
the ring without being able 10 reach
him hard enough for any use. Smith
had all honorS of the round, kelliher
landing two upper-cutS at the close. Inc
first minute of the second round was all
foot racing, Smith trying 10 get IN
finisher and Kelliher getting around
and around like a quarter horse. Odds
of $40 to $50 offered on Smith with no
takers. About the middle OF the round
Kelliher stopped short on a chase and
landed a hot Highlander on Smith ;
heart. but the latter didn't even grunt.
When the round closed Kelliher was
running like a scared greyhound. with
Smith right on his heels. At this stage
of the fight it was evident that smith
was 10 good for the BOStonian. and the
latter'S only chance to stay ten rounds
was in his generalShip.
In the eighth round Smith opened up
his reserve: he fought Keliher to the
ropes. smashing him right and left in
the neck and wind and sent him TO earth
on a straight left-hander. Kelliher Staid
down ten seconds and came 10 his feet
groggy. Smith got after him hard aud
shot right and left for the neck, landing
hot blows. Kelliher went down again,
and everyone thought he was out, but
he got up again, staggering against the
ropes, when Smith gave him a hard blow
in the neck, and down went the Bos-
tonian in heap in his own corner.
Kelliher tried TO get back to his feet
but fell backward. Pat Killen, one
of Kelliher'S seconds, jumped into the
ring with claim, Keliher being helped
TO his feet as time was up. Smith was
irving to reach him, and there was a
row going on in Kelliher'S corner, when
an oyer-zealous policeman climbed over
the press table into the ring. This was
the signal for general raid on the ring
by about twenty blue coats, who hus-
tied Kelliher and his seconds away and
started in to clear the platform. Then
came a general pandemOnium. a gen
eral fight enSued, and patrol wagon
full of men was hustled off to the Cen
trail station. As soon as order was re-
stored Referee Manning awarded the
fight to Smith.

EDUCATIONAL COLUMN.
What Are Correct Habits OF Study
And How Can We AID Pupils
In Forming Them.

And How Can We AID fupAs
In Forming Them.
Paper read before the Trego county Teacher"
Association by Mary Shepherd.
1t is Of quite as much importance how
We study as what we study.
Many pupils study inst for the sake OF
preparing to recite the lesson. and not
for the wisdom they may gain from it.
They seem to have no idea of any OBJ
ject beyond the recitation. The conse-
quence is they study mechanically, try
ing to remember the exact words OF the
book and not the principles given.
How often We have seen pupils, while
trying to prepare a lesson, swaying back
and forth, repeating over and over the
words OF the text book. while their minds
were not on the subject, but far away on
something else. Notice these pupils at a
recitation. 1t is struggle of the men,
DRY to recall the exact words of the
author and not the thought. Their unin-
terested countenances and inattention be-
speak that the memorized language is
words of little meaning to them.
How shall We correct these habits OF
study? How teach proper habits?
l. Our pupils should understand what
aud when they are to study. In assign
ing lesson new words and principles
should be explained and no child should
be required to study new subject until
he has received proper instruction as to
how to proceed with the study. Do not
require q child to repeat seven times two
is fourteen until he sees the two rs and
and the seven 2's in IA.
2. We should teach our pupils that
the study hour is altogether too valuable
to be wasted and nothing shouldtake Their
attention from their lessons. Teach them
to be always on the alert for something
new relating to the lessons.
8. We should require our pupils to
have definite hours to study each lesson
and see that the lesson is mastered in
that time.
4. We should teach our pupils that be
who makes the most noise is not the Que
who learns the most: that studying is
thinking, and that as we do not need to
move our lips while thinking, SO We do
not need to move them in preparing a
lesson from the printed page.
If We understand the subject thor
oughly and are interested in it ourselves,
and do not come to the recitation and
ask only the questions given in the text
book, we shall be able to awaken an int
crest in the lesson and SO aid our pupils
in graspi1g the thoughts of the lesson.
If We do not allow anything done care
lessly and noisily, do not accept any
half-learned lessons, but insist on thor
oughness in everything, we shall aid our
pupils in forming some good habits of
study.
