So Lewis Nixon is out Of the leader

that his resignation and withdrawal is
4 surprise to anybody. He was alto
gether too high grade man to get
along successfully with the thugs AMI
thieves Of Tammany hall. 1t takes a
Croker to lead them, and Nixon could
never sink to the level Of Croker and
his pals. Probably the boss will have
to leave his English estate and come
over to straighten things out.

ISOLATION which will be held, this after
noon at Lewiston. The preceding seven
field days have been Won by wide mar
gins by the Eowdoin athletes, and the
prophets concede that they are reason
ably sure to repeat the performance,
this year, though the representatives
of the other colleges are determined
that the margin of the BoWdoin boys
victory shall be as small as possible.
In the order of points won the result
will probably be Eowdoin, first; Uni
Versity of Maine, second; Bates, third,
and Colby, fourth. This was the order,
last year, when the field day was held
at Orono. BOwdOiG won SO points, L.

calculated to arouse such wild en-

SAD DEATH
william Martin Passed Away ~
Lafayette, Monday.

Crowley Signal
The death of William Martin,
the Junior member Of the firm Of
Martin Bros, in this city, Oc-
Cured in Lafayette yesterday
, shortly after II o'clock.
Mr.. Martin had been suffering
from fever for several weeks
and left his home in Welsh,
where the firm has branch
store, for Lafayette, where he
and his family intended to visit
friends and relatives until he
felt able to resume his duties in
Welsh. He grew rapidly worse,
however, and the end came at
the time above stated.
Mr.. Martin resided in Crowley
for a number of years and was
married in this city to daughter
of Colonel Hinchliffe. A little
child, with his wife, survive him.
The deceased also leaves a
brother, Ed. Martin, of this city,
and large number of relatives
over the parish. He was very
popular young man and has
many friends in Crowley who
will mourn his sad demise.
The remains were shipped
from Lafayette to Crowley on
the local passenger this after
noon and were taken in charge
at the depot by Acadia Lodge
I. O. o. F., and the Woodmen of
the World, of which orders he
was a member Interment was
made in the Crowley cemetery
after short services at the grave.

of the chautauqua had every rea-
son to believe that he would

that it would be impossible for
him to appear here, that fact
was given the widest blicity.
AS to Gov. Taylor sending his
excuses we can not tell where
so silly report originated.

contract with the Lyceum Bu-
reau which distinctly states that
the famous . Tennessean will
lecture here on the I'd day of

panied by his quartette. It has
been necessary to change some
of the dates, but it is not true
that several other attractions

told, emanates from reliable
sources" that "the teachers are
not finding the course so valua-
BILE as they expected it to be-" is
unfounded.
The teachers who have ex-
pressed themselves on the sub
ject are unanimous in their
praise of the work which is be-
ing done and of the efficiency
and earnestness of the faculty
DR.. billiard, the conductor, is
pre-eminent among the educa-
tors of the South and his assis-
tants have been selected on ac-
count of their fitness for the
work which they are doing.
With such a faculty the teacher
who fails to find the course bene-
fetal should be generous enough
to ascribe his failure to learn to
his own mental incapacity.
The Gazette is pleased to be
able to assure it's esteemed
friend of the Crowley News that
he has been misinfOrmed-af fact
which he will readily recognize if
he will only visit the school to
see for himself the splendid
work which is being done.

and greater things are expected

this nature is having the very
best of success.

teachers from different parts of
ideas as to how they may best
meet the battles Of another wear
of which they may have fallen
