Separate School Question at Coffey-

Coffeyville. Kas., Nov. 27.-The Jour-
nal says: There was an exciting scene
at Supt. Ringles office Tuesday morn
ing just before time for the opening of
school for the day.
Knowing that a writ of mandamuS
in the school case had been served on
the Superintendent and school board,
between 40 and 80 colored children I'M
dertook to sound the school authorities
on the matter by marching up to Prof.
Ringle'S Office and applying for admiS-
sion to the various grades in the differ
ent buildings which they wished to at
tend.
They had no trouble in learning the
way matters stood with the board. as
they were promptly informed that the
, previous assignments of the superinten-
dent held good; that the superintendent
had already in his former assignment
placed them where he thought it best
for them, and that they would have to
go there. II this manner the colored
people were informed that the board
will fight the mandamus proceedings,
and will on December IL "show why
the colored children were not admitted
indiscriminately with the whites.
Many of the colored children were
accompanied by their parents. and one
man made himself particularly obnox-
1 ious He declared that the superin-
itendent and school board were IAN
archists" and that they were going
against the law in doing as they did.
Supt. Ringle assured the men that the
school board had no intention of lay

RELIANCE TESTED
She Proves To Be a Good
 Boat in Heavy Weather
An Easy Victory by the New Boat Over Both the Old Cup Defender and the Constitution Yesterday.

Newport. R. l.. June 29.-The new cup yacht Reliance proved today her worth as a heavy weather boat when she de- feated the Columbia and Consultation in stif easterly breeze ana lumpy sea over a thirty-mile course. fifteen miles of which was beat to windward. The Reliance sailed the course in four min utes nine seconds less time than did the Columbia and four minutes and fifty eight seconds less than the Con- stitution.
 All the racing in which these boats have participated up today have been in light airs and smooth water, but this afternoon there was a smashing breeze blowing and much chop to the water. With her owner, E. D. Nor gan, at the helm, the old cup defender sailed a grand race, reaching the wind ward mark only one minute and fifty six seconds astern of the. Reliance and one minute and thirty-one seconds ahead of the Constitution.
 On the run home, however. the Reli- ance pulled away steadily from both her opponents, while the Constitution gained considerably on the Columbia. Captain Barr sailed the new sloop for all there was in her. and gave her rig ging and spars a thorough testing. Twice he wore the ship when maneu- vering for the start, and on each occa- sion a gust of wind heeled the craft down until the water was nearly up to the matches.

Of PostOffiCe Materials
 Found Slowed Away
IN MILWAUKEE P. 0.
Received Years Ago Without any Re- qaiSition Many Tons Of Graf Fas- teners Of WhicL No Use Was Ever Made.

Milwaukee. Wis, June 29.-Evidence bearing on the postal investigation came to light in the Milwaukee post office today Stored away in one cor ner of the basement is big pile of Croft fasteners that were sent to Mill waukee for some unknown reason and without requisition about fourteen years ago.
 There are two and one-cuarter tons of the fasteners in the basement of the federal building which will probably never be used unless they are shipped to Washington. None of them have been used.
 They came during the early years of the late Postmaster c. w. P0rter's term. No one ordered them, so far as it has been possible to ascertain. There was no use for them. There are 1.500 sets of fasteners, each set weighing three pounds. The government paid the contract price of S1.25 per set. There is also stored in the basement a lot of galvanized iron mail boxes that are made in Michigan. They were received about two years ago without requisi-. ton.

BRIGGS MADE A STAND.

Boston, Mass, June 29.-Young Cor bett of Denver. champion featherweight of the world. won the decision over Jimmy Briggs of this city tonight in a ten-round bout. Corbett was unable to put Briggs away. as the Boston boy met him at every turn and by clever blocking and footwork managed to stay the limit.
 Briggs never lost his head, no mat ter how fiercely Corbett forced the fighting, and by avoiding mix-ups kept himself in a safe position. Corbett rained vicious right and left swings at close range. but Briggs by quick duck ing got out of their aim and retaliated by hammering Corbett's body. Corbett had the advantage in weight by sever al pounds. He became desperate in the last rounds and swung wildly. In the tenth round Corbett went in to finish his man, but Briggs straight left jabs brought blood from the western cham pion's nose.

ONE WILL LOSE TONIGHT
Of Two Fighters. Neither oi Whom
 Has Ever Been Beaten.

San Franciso. June 29.-Eddie Han lon and Bennie Yanger are ready to re- spond to the tap Of the gong which will set them on their twenty-round battle in Mechanics pavilion tomorrow night. They have trained faithfully and arc .n the pink of condition.
 Neither lad has been beaten during his career. The betting is 10 to 9. with Hanlon on the long end. This is due to the fact that Hanlon has fought so well in the past and is in his home town. There are many, however, who will pin their faith to Yanger because of his splendid record and sturdy style of fighting. Those who have watched Yanger in training say he is a whirl- wind and that Hanlon has never met his equal as a puncher.
 Eddie Smith of the Reliance Athletic club. Oakland. will referee the battle.
