escaped in small dory, followed by

Clinton, Sept. 22.-Forty of the male
students of the Anamosa high school
are on strike, and the trouble threat
ems to spread to the remaining boys,
and the girl students of the institu-
ton, because the school board has
placed taboo upon foot ball. The
boys had a football team last year
and played several of the high school
teams of eastern Iowa. The schoo!
board charges that on these excursions
from their home city the athletes did
not conduct themselves as became
gentlemen. openly charging that on
numerous occasions, and notably on a
trip to Maquoketa, where they engaged
the high school team in gridfron bat
tie. majority of the boys were in
toxicated. When the edict was issued
by the board recently, a committee of
boys waited upon the school board
and asked that they be allowed to play
football under certain conditions.
These were that no boy who chewed,
smoked or drank be allowed to be a
member of the team, that no student
behind his grades be permitted to play,
and that the team pay the expenses Of
man, to be chosen by the board, to
accompany the team on it's trips. n
the capacity of chaperone. The board
remained obdurate, however, and the
strike ensued. 1t is feared that the
remainder Of the male students will
leave school tomorrow, and the girls
also threaten to leave if the boys are
not allowed to play the game. 1t Is
thought that many of the students
parents sympathize with the strikers.
and there is much speculation as to
the probable outcome of the difficulty.

the more prosperous man, the great
er lesson Is to the man who has lost
hope. Words cannot describe the
condition of 'the man who has lost
hope" That condition can be un-
derstood by one whose life has not
been broken upon the wheel OF ad-
versity, only when he imagines what
his own career would be II hope we're
entirely removed from 1t. One
might imagine that IL would be inn
possible to revive hope within the
breast of the would-bc suicide; but
the fact that there was so much good
In him that he forgot his own sor-
rows In the sympathy he had for a
dumb creature, provides conclusive
proof that even to that most hopeless
man, life is worth living. The man
who. under those circumstances,
could display such love and tender
ness, is capable, with little encour-
agement, OF conquering himself and
proving to the world that II is better
because he lived. He Is but the rep
resentative OF type, and every one
OF his class is entitled to the tender
sympathy and the substantial encOur-
agement of his more fortunate fel-
/ lows.
