 Blakeley stood by the chain stopper about two feet distant. He was torn to pieces. Pieces of shell flew in all direc- tions, wounding the others. A part of the shell struck the starboard plates, causing a trifling bulge outward. The compartment was filled with smoke, and the fire hose was ordered into use to extinguish the flames.
 Other shells exploded near the Texas. Ensign Anderson, second in command of the port turret, says a shell exploded ten yards away on the water, filling the turret with smoke.
 The firing on board the Texas was confined to the port battery Captain Phillips spoke highly of all his men and officers. The best hits were scored bv Lieutenant Bristol, in charge of the port turret.
 The death of Blakeley cast gloom over the crew. For the first time dur ing the war they witnessed the impress sive ceremonies of burial at sea- The Texas steamed out to sea and buried Blakeley, returning to her post on the blockade at o'clock in the afternoon.

 Five arrests were made, namely: W. J. Barnett, Ray Falk, James Smith, w. Humphrey and John Schulz. They were taken before Recorder Simpton and released on their own recognizance.
 Deputy Marshal Johnson was placed in the doorway of the raided rooms and given four deputies to assist him in preventing a crowd from congregat- ing inside. Gamesters were permitted to enter in single file all day long, each man being warned as he entered that he was liable to arrest.
 The attorneys of the rival factions tried to induce Justice Bellrude to is- sue warrants for the arrest of Harri- son and Harvey, on the ground that they were violating an unrepealed or

This action will be necessary in order to compel Spain to recall her fleet.

No anxiety is felt concern ing the safety of Admiral Dewey.

 REINSTATEMENT.

Smith. as vice principal of that school filled the place with one of the most select au- diences ever assembled in the city. Many people were unable to gain ad- mittance.
 Upon the stage were seated a num- Der of prominent business men. Henry French was made chairman, and spoke few words of praise for our public schools. He stated the purpose of the meeting.
 Rev. N. H. Haskell of the Unitarian church made some plain statements about remedying our public school sys- tenn, and denounced the dismissal of Professor Smith His remarks were followed by applause and cheering. during which the students gave a high school yell.
 Professor Miller of Stanford Univer- sity spoke in behalf of Professor Smith. He stated that Professor Smiths work was accredited at Stanford, and that his students were the only ones that were accepted on recommendation. He
 
 all others in Latin, and pupils from this school were always at the head of the class. He said Professor Smith was considered one of the best Latin teach CTS on the coast. He was glad the students were making this move to se- cure the reinstatement of their teacher.
 Attorney s. G. Tompkins followed and indorsed the uprising in favor of Professor Smith.
 F. M. Keesling of the High School alumni said Professor Smiths removal was to make room for certain young lady with a political pull, who was about 10 graduate at the Normal School
 The following resolutions were adopt ed by a star ding vote, every one rising but the faculty of the High Scho.l:
