Killed an innocent Negro.

OAKLAND, Tenn, May 23.-E. w.
Dunn, a constableof Fayette county,
yesterday morning shot and killed
Peyton GoOde, negro. Dunn was
collecting poll taxes and had made
wo or three trips to see the negro,
and yesterday went to the house with
wagon and negro driver, also ac-
companied by white man, Mr..
Farley. Dunn ordered some house,
hold effects put into the wagon. At
this juncture Goode came up from
the field and protested, at the same
time running his hand into his
pocket. Dunn, thinking he meant
fight, fired three times, two shots
hitting the negro and the third strik-
ing Farley's horse, from the effects
of which the animal died in about
an hour. 1t developed that the negro
had tax receipt Of 1900 in his
pocket. Dunn went to Somervilie
aud gave himself up to Sheriff Bos-
well and was released on bond.

Good Money in This.

The Nashville Banner has secured
an advance copy of the annual re-
port of Insurance Commissioner
Craig, and it shows that while some
of the fire insurance companies
doing business in Tennessee took
extra hazardous risks, the premium
receipts last year exceeded losses
incurred more than $l400,0OO. That
is to say, after taking risks that
should have been rejected, the fire
insurance companies, which have
been represented as starving in this
state, made nearly, if not quite, ST.
100000 on our business last year.
Summarized the first table in the
report presents the following facts ::
Risks written, $l64, 300, 1902; pre-
miums received, $2,462, S4.98; losses
incurred, $l,057 ,504.56; losses paid,

streets, and conducting themselves
disgracefully before the public. This
has even been carried to such an *
tent, and become so intolerable. that
substantial and order.loving citizens
have expressed the wish that the
very institution they had helped to
build might be removed from their
midst"
3. 1t is argued that "a school will
not be patronized and can not sue
coed unless football is allowed"
Kingswood School, the first Metho-
dist school ever organized, is his
toric refutation of this statement.
1t was more strict ia its discipline
than any school OF that time, or per-
haps of modern times; but Mr.. Yves
ley says in his journal: 1--WE could
not accommodate half the pupils
who applied for admission" This
school was for many years more
successful, perhaps, than any school
Methodism has ever established.
and yet it failed, and why? Mr..
Wesley gives the cause in these
words, "Teachers could not be pro-
cured who would enforce discipline:
many of them would not observe
discipline themselves. Here we
have the sad secret of the Kings
wood failure; here also we have the
explanation of the weakness and
lack Of success in some of our educa-
tional institutions to-day. 1t is the
lack of discipline. Law is dead
letter without an administrator back
of it. Boys in school, like children
in the home, will use all the liberties
allowed them. They will play foot
bail Intercollegiate and every other
kind-if they are allowed to do it.
And yet boys will not play foott all,
nor waste time thinking about it, il
they are not allowed. The boys ar
not to be blamed. They enter the
Institution to comply with it's rules
and this they will cheerfully do
when they know it is imperative.
Many young men are kept in college
on the hard earnings and close saw
ings of parents in poverty, Who are
sacrificing that their sons may get
the highest benefit possible, and not
that they may spend the precious
money sometimes almost theiprlce
of blood) in a senseless round of loot
I ball contests with all the loss IF
time, expense, and decentralization
which are consequent.
There is in this age an ominOus
slack uess In home and Church and
Stale government, out of which
arise the dangers that menace and
the problems which perpleX. Hence
wa need lmOat in nur schools w n at is
needed in every other branch of
governments: men who, together
with the other necessary qualifica-
tions have the firmness and courage
to enforce discipline against any
and all pressure. A man wise, con-
secrated, and fearless, with a will

CRIMINALLY BRUTAL HAZING
Member of the Graduating Class of
the Batavia IN. W High school
Branded with Acid.

New York, May 2S.-The town IF
Batavia. Rochester special to the
Times says, is excited over a case of
hazing. Great rivalry has long eN-
listed between the graduating class
and the class of 1902 in the high
school, and the class fights have been
most bitter. a climax has been
reached, for John Swartz, member
of the graduating class, was waylaid
in lonely section of the town, Sc
curely bound to tree, and his face
was painted with a mixture of acid
and iodine. The figures 'O2" were
clearly drawn on his left cheek.
Blinded with pain, Swartz was re-
leased. and secured medical aid in re-
moving the acids. The chances are
good that his face will always bear
marks Of the hazers' brush. Vigor-
Gus efforts will he made to bring the
hazers to justice.

DESTRUCTION OF THE MAINE.
The Government Heads on IA Judi
cir1 Decision that Might
Prove Embarrassing.

New York, May 2S.-A special to the
Herald from Washington says: In or
der to prevent a judicial determine
tion of the cause of the destruction of
the battleship Maine, the government
has taken advantage of technically
to throw out the claim by Harry S.
Mccain, who was a sailor on the bat
tleship when she was blown up in
Havana harbor.
The government asked that his pc
tition be dismissed on the ground
that it is not within the terms of the
treaty between the United States and
Spain or the act of congress organic
ing the Spanish claims commission.
The political department of the
United States, it is further stated, has
finally disposed of the claim, and this
disposition bars the jurisdiction of
the commission or any other tribunal.

FOOTBALL.
BISHOP II. G. MORRISON, IN CHRIST IAN
ADVOCATE.

ADVOCATE.
In a recent article We discussed
this subject from the standpoint or
the changer and deadliness' of the
game. Knowing that lengthy COM
munications are neither an EDITORS
ioy nor a readers delight. we
touched but the one phase of the
subject. We herein call attention TO
the demoralizing effects of football.
/ We do not believe that any
game or exercise so violent and bru-
tai can possibly develop any OF the
f1uer qualities. 1t is one thlng TO
make ruffian of a youth, ana quite
another to make him nero. Cour-
age cannot be butted into boy by
butting his brains out. the gentlest
are the bravest. A gentleman is the
man who is most manly and at the
same time most refined and gentle
hammered. New ideas and new con-
ditions call for new terms to ex
press them; and the foo ball face"
Is a phrase of late coinage, and now
in use as expressive of the facial ef-
feet produced upon those who give
much time, thought, and strength to
this game. 1t is claimed that this
term is mot an empty phrase, but a
distressing fact" 1t is also salo
that 1.-The type of face eveloped on
the football field is as distinct and
unlovely as that developed In the
prize ring? That it conduces TO
thickness of features, heaviness or
face, and unattractiveness OF man
ner, there can be no doubt Presl-
dent Wheeler, of the University OF
California, is quoted as saying:
"Football is not essential to the de-
velopment of a virile and healthy
manhood, and it does no credit to the
quality Of the gray matter in the
brain. Football is a bait to lure
young men from their studies.
2. Football leads to duplicity and
deception. 1t is temptation to stu
ents, when not excused, to play
truant in order to meet engagements
with representatives from other
schools. Intercollegiate football
leads to dissipation, drunkenness,
and gambling; If not to Other and
kindred vices. We have more than
once been eyewitness to its deplora-
BILE consequences, when travelling by
raj! we have CHANGED to be on the
same train with football teams GO

smell of liquor. the half-drunken
and maudlin condition, and the

tary upon the institution they repre-
sented. Cases occur in which stu
