and one well known pugilist shot perhaps
fatally, with a large number Of cuttings and
beatings. are the outcome OF the Republican
primaries for the election of delegates TO the
Ist District convention tonight.
The returns not all in yet So far the
voting was concerned, there were rows of vari-
Gus sorts and disputes as to the legality of the
boards sitting to receive the ballots but In
where the results are known j. Alpheus Van
SAINT the organization candidate has won nearly
one hundred of the 127 delegates from this
county. Congressman Loudenslager gets the
balance.
The fighting and bloodshed came as the re-
suit of the importation of repeaters from Phila-
delphia into the city and outlying townships
One of these gangs, 1t is alleged, in charge
of Joe" Goddard, widely known pugilist from
Philadelphia who went to Pensaukin Township
just over the city line. They got into a dis
pute with George Washington. a colored con-
stable and IL is said that Goddard attacked the
negro with a baseball bat The officer drew his
revolver and fired at shot range. Goddard fell
with bullet in his brain, and was hurried to
Coop Hospital. where he is in critical con-
dition. The physicians say he scarcely

Soon after the polls closed in the Fifth Pre-

was trouble. In a minute there a riot about
the polling place, and pistols in active
operation. No seemed to know Just who
was shooting or what he was shooting at but
when the smoke of battle cleared away Police
man Harry Miller found covered with blood
in the street. and he hurried to Cooper
Hospital, where the surgeons found deep cash
in his left side. They think he may recover
but he is terribly injured.
A few minutes after the excitement attend
ing the finding of Miller had died out Frank
S. Albright. a reporter. found a strange man
leaning against a fence in the neghtborhood
of the polls and bleeding profusely from
wound in his side. Albright attempted to get
him into nearby yard where he expired in
the reporters arms. He had been shot in the
heart. No one knows the man. but earlier in
the evening he had been introduced to the crowd
at the polls Bob Fitzsmmons because of
his resemblance to the pugilist. The body was
taken to the morgue Later he was identified
as John r. Morrissy, of Philadelphia
Nothing has been heard of a definite char
acter from the other two counties but both
sides claim them.

SEWER GAS

A storm of unusual severity. accompanied by
high wind, heavy rain and sharp lightning,

and company of wOrshippeTs were thrown
into panic, which only the cOmpOsure of the
officiating priest prevented from becoming
serious.
Several persons were killed by lightning in
and near the city.
The Tenderloin police station was one Of the
sufferers.
Many homes and the subway tunnel were
flooded, and half a mile of sewer exploded.

PRIEST CHANTS; BOLT HITS.
WORSHIPPERS IN CHURCH IN PANIC AS
STONE CROSS CRASHES TO GROUND.

At the height of the storm the steeple of the
Church Of st. Paul the Apostle at Columbus
ave. and Sixtieth-st was struck by lightning
and of the four huge stone crosses that
stand on each corner Of the tower was wrecked
AT the time the bolt struck the steeple the
church was we'll filed with worshippers, and
there a panic.
The church is open at all hours of the day.
and when the storm swept over the city there
were many people there at their evening devo-
ton. Hundreds of others sought shelter from
the rain In the midst of the torrents OF rain
and peals of thunder and while priest stood
at the altar chanting the benedictiOn there came
a sudden, great white blaze of light that bright
ened up every nook and corner Of the great
church II scores Of electric lights had been
turned on. The same instant there was crash.
and the great church shook under the reverbera-
tions of terrific peal of thunder.
AS the rumblings OF the thunder ceased there
followed a second crash as the big stone cross on
the northeast corner of the tower. Weighing two
hundred pounds, fell with resounding impact TO
the sidewalk in Columbus-ave. 1t was shattered
into scores OF small pieces. and split the side
walk where it fell.
Then 1t was that the crowd Of worshippers
and shelter seekers within the church became
panic stricken. There was an instant rush for
the big swinging doors opening out into Co
lurnbus-ave., and the people, despite the fact
that the rain still pouring IN torrents, made
frantic efforts TO get outside. The first bolt OF
lightning and peal of thunder was followed by
others more distant. and the terrftfeo people
seemed to believe they were still in danger OF
being struck Several Of the assistant priests
about the church and students strove their best
TO calm the frightened ones and assure them
that they were in danger no longer. But In
spite of their reassuring talk many OF the per-
sons ran helter-skelter out of the church into
the storm
The four crosses surmounting the tower are
nearly fifty feet from the Steeply sloping roof
OF the church. There is each corner
OF the tower. After the panic was over and the
storm had slackened every body remaining In the
church made rush for pieces of the cross to
take home as a souvenir. They gathered up
nearly all the fragments.

Convention Of Teachers.

Convention Of Teachers.
The Executive Committee of the
Inland Empire Teachers Associa-
ton has asked Us to print this
article in the interest of the public
schools. This committee is COM
posed Of J. f. Saylor. superinten-
dent Of the Spokane schools, II. l..
darlington, teacher in the Lewis
ton Normal school S. c. Roberts,
ex-county superintendent Of Whit
man county, Washington j. +.
Nowlin, county superintendent,
Pendleton, Oregon. The teachers
Of Northwestern Oregon, Northern
Idaho, Eastern Washington and
Western Montana comprise the
Association.
The fifth annual convention of
the Inland Empire Teachers AS
ISOLATION ineete this spring in
Spokane, April 9th, 10th and 18th.
The meetings Of this association
have been growing in interest.
Last year it was held at Moscow,
Idaho.
The people are as much inter-
ested in these events as the teach
ers themselves. The children of
homes are the ones to suffer or
profit by reason Of good or poor
schools. "As the teacher is, so is
the school," This has long since
become largely an established fact.
Visit any community and it will
tell of the school terms that were
failures and will nearly always
credit the teacher with the cause
Of the failure. If the school is a
success, the credit goes to the
teacher. The people generally un-
derstand that teacher makes or
unmakes q school. A terms fail
ure in school is an expensive bust
ness. But the part to be most
regretted is not the loss Of money
but the loss of educational. oppor-
tunities add the perverted growth
and disorganized life which comes
to any child in poor school. 1t
takes a large portion of any good
term of school to undo the evil
effects OF q bad term.
How then can we get better
teachers? As far as possible hire
only those who are properly
educated second, get those grad.
uated from Normal schools third,
! secure those who are thoroughly
interested in their profession al
| shown by their constant study Of
professional journals and books
their attendance at County In.
stitutes, county conventions ant
state conventions. Secure teachers
who have prepared themselves
first and then continue to grow
After all these precautions are
taken it will not absolutely insure
q good school but it will reduce thu
number of bad ones to the mini
mum. School teaching is like al
other vacations. There will b.
failures after all the preparation
possible is made.
Every teacher that attends on
of these larger associations return
home having received the follow
ing benefits
lst. They have a chance to tall
with teachers and educators of ex
perience and ask questions relativ
to any special needs which the
experience.

from the discussions taking place
