THE SCHOOLS ARE CROWDED
THE CROWDED CONDITION OF
 DOUGLAS SCHOOLS MAKES

Douglas, AriZ.. Dec. -(Speciai.)-
 The schools of Douglas are badly crowded and somthing will have to be done soon to relieve the situation. More school houses will have to be built and bonds must be issued to enable the school board to make the necessary improvements.
 The International-Amer has Ob- tained the following figures from a member of the school board:
 The total enrolment of children in the school district is about $50
 The total seating capacity and desk room is for 75O
 If the compulsory school law was enforced more than 1000 children would now be enrolled, 25O more than there is room for
 At the present rate of increase the enrolment next year will be some thing like 1900, or 450 more than there is provision made to accommo- date.
 It is clearly to be seen that some thing will have to be cone as promptly as the school laws will permit
 The school board will meet in a few days to take the matter up. They have under consideration the recom- mendation for a six or eight-room school house, to be centrally located in the city and to be used for the high school grades. This building will be made large enough to relieve congestion in the other three houses.

ENSIGN N. K. PERRY KILLED.
In Horrible Accident On The Uni
ted States Gunboat
Bennington.
THIRTY-NINE MEN HURRIED
INTO ETERNITY.
Many Others Are Injured And 1t Is
Thought They Can
not Live.

That portion of the navy that re-
sides here is greatly distressed over
the horrible accident TO the United
States gunboat Bennington.
While the gunboat was making
preparations TO leave San Diego, Cal. i,
for Panama a boiler exploded. This
exploded second boiler. and together
they blew out the deck of the ship,
great hole in her side, and killed at
least 50 men, including Ensign New
nah X. Perry,a native of South Caro-
lima. OF the rs men injured num-
ber are expected to die.
Twenty-one seamen are missing and
the total casualties are put at Ill.
The vessel is reported by Commander
Young to be practically a wreck. Ii
is said the first boiler which blew mp
had been regarded as weak, although
inspectors reported favorably upon it
year ago News of the disaster
came as a great shock to the Navy
Department, which only a short time
before had been advised that the
Bennington had sailed for San Fran
cisco. At the Navy Department il is
stated the gunboat's boilers were over.
hauled in May last.
Lieutenant Victor Blue, who dis
tinguished himself by locating Ger
vera fleet at Santiago, Cuba. during
the SpaniEh- American War, was one
of the officers of the ill-fated gun
boat, but was not aboard at the time,
having been removed to a hospital
with an acute attack of appendicitis.
The awful carnage wrought by the
accident is horrible to contemplate.
Blood and wreckage were distributed
over the entire ship. the after cabin
and that part of the ship adjacent to
the exploded boiler resembling a char
mel house. The boiler which explod
ed, it is said, was regarded as unsafe.
Commander Young stated that during
a recent return from Honolulu the
steam pressure was kept reduced in
that particular one.
At the time of the accident Com
mander Lucien Young and Surgeon
Il. E. Peck were on shore. The two
officers, as soon as they learned of
the disaster, hurried to the water
front Commander Young, as soon as
he reached the ship, gave orders that
the airtight compartments be closed
TO prevent the listing ship from
sinking and that the magazine be
Coded to avert further explosions.
He then beached the ship at high
tide.
Ensign Newman X. Perry. Jr..
who died of his injuries, was born
in South Carolina on November 26,
1880, and was appointed a naval'cadet
from the Fourth district of South
Carolina on September 8, 1897. He
was promoted to ensign on June 2,
1905. He joined the Bennington as a
watch and division officer on March
8, 1903. His wife, Mrs. Newman X.

cided to hold the ceremonies of the in

vault at 10 O'Clock Monday morning.
The ceremonies will be very simple

of the Academy authorities TO avoid
anything that will detract from the

laid away in the crypt of the new
Naval Academy chapel, its permanent
resting place.
A large float has been built at the
Naval Academy for the purpose of con-
veying the remains Of Admiral Paul

American flags and after the casket Of
the great naval hero has been trans
ferred from the flagship Brooklyn it
will be towed to the Naval Academy
The naval funeral cortege will be one
of the most impor tant events in the
history of the American navy
There has been some misunderstand-
ing as to the composition of the fleet
that will escort the remains from the
Capes to Annapolis. the general belief
being that il would consist of cruisers
alone. This is not the case rs tile sec

Trouble Over Leazer.

On account of a Misunderstanding
as to the kind and price of coffin or
dered. which led to a difficulty be-
tween his brother Walter and Under
taker J. Albert Adams. the remains of
William Leazer were not buried until
late last night. Adams had, it is un.
dertood, thought that the executed
murderer's family wanted a more ex-
pensive coffin than that usually fur
nished the county for such funerals,
and had expected the family of Leazer
to pay the difference between what
the county furnished and the price of
the coffin in which Leazer body was
placed Immediately after the hanging.
1t became necessary to change the
body from the first ~casket into a
cheaper one and this caused several
hours delay.
