ed, all should encourage The building of
the best school possible for the money.
The directors are safe, conservative
men and can be depended on to do
things exactly right. A new school

will now have that as a vast majority
OF our people say they want it. While
we were not satisfied with the issue of
bonds as provided. we are, and every
good citizen should be, willing to bow
to the will of the majority. Our gov:
eminent of democracy is founded on
the will of the people and the people
must rule. A fine school ediice for
Isabel is grand Investment. A graded
school with competent teachers will
bring many more residents to Isabel
and is contamination devoutly to be
wished.

TrlpoN. Young Decatur had been told
that the captain of this vessel had
treacherously murdered his brother,
John Decatur, after he had surrendered
to him. Mr.. Allen writes: He ran
alongside and at once boarded WIN
Macdonough and the remnant or MS
crew. Decatur singled out the captain,
a man of great size md strength, and
attacked him furiously. The Tripon-
tan made a thrust with his boarding
pike, and IN attempting to parry the
blow Decaturs cutlaSs was broken on
at the hilt, leaving him for the mo-
ment unarmed Another thrust or the
pike wounded him in the arm. Decatur
seized the weapon, wrenched 1t away
and grappled with his antagonist. Art
er short struggle they fell TO the deck.

Meanwhile the two crews were tight

a Tripolitan aimed blow at Docatur's
head with his scimiter, when a seaman
named Daniel Frazier, having both
arms disabled by wounds, interposed
his head and received the blow, which
laid open the scalp. The Tripolitan
captain. being more powerful than De
