The terms of that farewell were stern

\ .'RattIing'' Mill with a Fatal TermI-

MEMPHIS, Tenn. Oct. 10.-A rafting
eight round mill took place at the Am
ateur Athletic club in this city between
Jack Davis professional prize fighter
from Texas. and Dick Barker, who halls
from Louisville, Ky, and is at present
at work in Memphis as moulder which
resulted in the death of the latter at
noon.
Davis was seconded by Mike Connel-
ly, the 'Ithica giant" and Bob Lee, a
local sport. Barker had behind him
Tom Matthews and Jim Ryan.
Up to the eighth round the amateur
had the best of the fight, Davis being
weak and groggy. At the eighth Davis
landed a swinging right handler on Bar
ker's chin, that knocked him out. Moth
ing serious was apprehended until Bar
ker took his bed. Medical aid was called
in, but to no purpose. Barker died, and
the doctors decline to state until after
the autopsy whether death resulted
from the force of the blow or from con-
gestion.
Davis is in Jail pending investigation.
The seconds are being arrested and
placed under bond. The officials of the
Athletic club, it is likely, will be ar
rested, and considerable excitement

WHAT TIE SCHOOLS ARE TO DO.

WHAT THE SCHbOLS AXE To DO.
Francis Bellamy, chairman of the
executive committee, offers the follow
ing among other suggestions:
The first duty of each school is to attend to
its own morning celebration.
Teachers, superintendent and school boards
should confer that action may be harmonious,
and the best results attained. The pro-
posed celebration should be explained to each
school at the earliest moment 1t should be so
presented as TO awaken enthusiasm. In
teresting topics relating to Columbus
and the discovery should be suggested
for special investigation. Such topics might
be: THE Map of the World Before the
Discovery" Important Inventions and Events
of Europe Just Before the Discovery" THE
Story of Columbus The Ships OF Columbus"
what Columbus Expected TO Find" Geo
graphical Growth Of the United States"
States of South America" etc. The teacher
should assign the address and the ode to THOSE
who can render them most intelligently. The
flag salute and the songs should be persistenty
rehearsed.
Important committees of pupils should be
appointed: I. A committee of invitation, whose
duty is to see that the family Of each pupil re-
ceives a special invitation to the morning exsr-
cises Of October 81, and also, when they arrive,
to show them seats; ?. A color guard whose
duty is ~ to see that the school has a flag and
n staff in proper condition: o. 70 meet the vet
Grams as they arrive, and escort them with dig
nifty to the principal in the sehOolhOuse; 80 to
act as aids of the principal.
An efficient adult committee arrangements
should also be constituted. This committee
must see On that seats are prepared out Of
doors in hope Of fair weather, and that a room
is also engaged for the exercises, should the
day be stormy; 81 that fitting decorations and
printed programmes are provided; ~ that the
local press is interested and invited: a. that
arrangements are made with the veterans and
other special guests for the parts they are to
take.
The school principal must make himself per-

Mrs Kennaird shook her head with a

was in one Of these desperate moods,
and they were moods that recently had
grown frequent. Her diplomacy, of
which she had large funds, forbade any
such course, and her maternal ambition,

At nine o'clock on Friday, October
81, the schools will assemble At half
past nine a detail of veterans will
reach the school building in Maine as
in California, in Dakota as in Louisi-

As the reader finishes he announces:
'In accordance with this recommends
ton by the president of the United
States, and as q sign of our devotion to
our country, let the flag of our nation
be unfurled above this school"
AS the flag reaches the top of the
staff the veterans will lead the assem-
blage in ''three cheers for Old Glory.
Then, at signal from the principal,
the pupils face the flag and give it the
military salute, saying: Il pledge ale
glance to my flag and the republic for
which it stands; one nation indivisible,
with liberty and justice for all" Then
in unison will sing America"
A prayer and an acknowledgment of

about his passengers except that they
were French women: that he had hired

he was carrying out his part of the con-
