Indian Summer.

Indian summer, whence its origin
and time! The answer to the ques-
ton is a mooted one, and there is
no substantial authority to back it
up. The common acceptance Of the
term, designating the mild period
of weather, following the first cold
snap or storm, or immediately pre-
ceding the winter time, is that the
Indian naturally INDECENT and pro-
crastinating, delayed the harvesting
Of his crops until the first warning
of winter spurred him on. Like.
wise those who are fond Of referring
to Indian summer call the first APP
proach Of cold "Squaw Winter.
Farmers rely much more on the
Indian summer legend than do the
the town and city folks. The first
storm with winter tendencies has
no terrors for them. as they are
sure 1t is the squaw winter and
Indian summer invariably follows,
usually continuing for consider
able length of time.
The commonly accepted time for
the Indian summer IS the mild
weather Of November. when the
sky is sunshing and hazy in the
day time, the air chilly but invigor-
ating at night, when the old moon
is nearly full or perhaps in way
ing stage, shininey un waveriug from
a cloudless heaven. This IS said to
be the time when Indian summer
is in the full glory of its short lived
existence.

scholarship Of some OF our teachers.
The schools must have teachers and
the superintendent must grant
certificates to sufficient number to
supply the schools. If sufficient
number with high scholarship do
not present themselves for examina-
ton, he must take some with poorer
scholarship. In passing, let me ask
how we can expect to have pupils
we'll grounded in the fundamentals
if we have teachers who are not so
grounded themselves How can we
expect a teacher to properly train
children in composition, grammar
or arithmetic If she does not herself
understand these subjects fairly
well? How can a teacher be ex-
pected to say that q child is ready to
graduate from the common school
and enter the high school if in the
high school she was not able to pass
her grades with any degree OF sue
cess?
Not enough of our schools have
teachers with professional training
Such training is as necessary for
the teacher as for the lawyer
There IS q science of teaching that
can only be learned in the school of
long experience or in q teachers
training school. We have a normal
school here in Grant county, train
ing every year a large number of
excellent teachers, yet how few of
these are to be found in the com
mon schools
Now what is the remedy for all
this? What can you as a school
board do? You can offer sufficient

inducements in the way of salary
and we'll equipped schools to make
the work more attractive. Pay
salaries large enough so that teach
ers can afford to make better
preparation and so that some men
can afford to teach. Usually we
get about what we pay for and this
holds IN matters of school teac ing
as we'll as in other things. By
making teaching more attractive
more people will be glad to make it
their LIES business, competition
will become stronger, teachers will
be compelled to be better prepared
and consequently the schools will
be better.
Our schools should be made more
attractive. This can be done by
giving more attention to the beauty
of school houses and school grounds.
We are glad that the day of tire
unsightly school, implanted, with
careIessly constructed out buildings.
without shade trees and with
broken down fences is almost
passed. Yet some Of these condi-
tions are still to be found in Grant
county. The school room schould
be clean, as clean as the living
room of the average American
family. There is no more reason
why a school room should be a
dirty, du0ty, untidy place than why
your parlor at home should be dirty
and untidy. You keep your home
neat and it is attractive; make your
school room so also. How often

WRESTLING.
RIOT UP IN
 WINDSOR LOCKS
The Spectators Wanted to Eat Up
 One of the Crapplers When Hall Was Closed.

Windsor Locks, March 5.-Bur- maps opera house was crowded to it's full capacity Saturday evening, for the revival of wrestling bouts in Windsor Locks. The principals of the preliminary bout were Romeo Rolla of Mittineague, Mass, and Louis Montagna of Torrington. Mon- tagna agreed to throw Rolla twice ill one hour. After half an hours hard work, MOntagna let up and was caught unaware by Rolla, who threw him.
 The main bout of the evening was between Siro ItalianO of Torrington. who weighs 172 pounds, and George Decker of Hartford, 2G9 pounds. The conditions of the match were that Decker was to throw the Italian twice in one hour, strangle holds bar red. Decker won the first fall in 28 minutes by haIf-Nelson and bar hold. After ten minutes rest both got together again, the Italian being the aggressOr from the start and in three minutes of hard work threw Decker by a full Nelson. The Italian was given the decision by the referee and declared the winner of the match.
 Decker was displeased with the referees decision and claimed that his shoulders had not touched the floor He then addressed the audi ence and said that he had been rob bed. At this the crowd jumped upon the seats and benches and h00ted him. This enraged Decker, who of fered to bet S1O0 that he could throw the Italian three times in forty-fiye minutes. Here Manager Shea of the opera house ordered the audience to sit down and not stand on the seats. This they would not do, and Manager Shea ordered the lights turned out and said that he was not going to have his hall ruined.
 |, It looked like riot, half the audi ence starting for the stage, the other half hooting at Manager Shea and defying him to turn them out. 1 At this stage of the affairs ex- Deputy Sheriff Timothy F. McCarty asserted his authority and cleared the hall. This will probably end the wrestling bouts at the opera house, as the manager does not want to re- peat his Saturday nights experience.
 The referee of the house was Will liam Shellington of this town. T. F. | McCarty was master of ceremonies Sports were present from Hartford, Springfield, TorringtOn, Mittineague Mass, and Thompsonville. Efforts are being made to make match be- | tween Decker and ltaliano to be pull ed of next Saturday night, in the opera house and if that place cannot be obtained it will be had ill Hartford or Torrington.

THE PUGILlSTS
RING BATTLES
 LAST EVENING
Mosey King and Jeff Doherty Go a Fast Twelve Round Draw
 Ryan and Kelly Draw.

New Haven, March 5.--Jeff Doher- ty of this city and "Mosey" King, for merly of New London, and now of this city also, boxed clean, fast go of twelve rounds at Music hall last night before an enthusiastic gather ing of 2,000 people, the largest crowd that has turned out for boxing ex- hibition in New Haven in many a day.
 Unusual interest was taken in the exhibition, as manifested by the as- sembly, delegations attending from Springfield, Hartford, New London, Waterbury and New York.
 Between the two men at the close of the fight 1t was hard to pick, but almost every one was satisfied that It was called a draw, although among the wise ones at the ring side there were many that believed King had a shade the better of it. He showed all his old time steam and cleverness, and many of Doherty's wicked blows that looked to the galleries as land ing found no better resting place than Mosey's init, which almost in variably he seemed able to keep be- tween his body and head and his op- ponent's glove. In three rounds he had Doherty seriously worried, and the latter resOrted to his old trick oi holding the wirey whalers glove Doherty did better toward the end.
 The first preliminary was between Williams of Bridgeport and Murphy of New Haven, both of whom carry 8 "Kid' before their names. This also was good, clean, fast draw of eigh1 rounds.
 The second preliminary had to be stopped in the third round owing tt the foul tactics of Tommy Maher o1 this city. He wrestled young Lawson of Hartford all over the ring ano twice threw him heavily to the floor He was cautioned without avail b! w. l.. Crowley of Hartford. wht showed good judgment in stopping the bout.

 New Britain should have been beat on in order to make everything even up. s"
 The big crowd of fans down in Bridgeport got q run for their money any way and that Is ole consolation.
 New Haven with all her new men will put in an appearance this even ing and we will just take that bunch into camp or give up the ship.
 New Britain is getting very scared at the manner in which that Bridge port crowd hammers out victories and she may well feel scared for Bridgeport has team that reminds you of the old polo days.
 Tommy Leahy says Waterbury is all right to referee fin, but If he gets au more telegrams to deliver he'll send his resignation to Secretary Feet.
 All up for New Haven tonight. It has the best team now that has repre- seutei that city since the league was formed. Our old friend whlpple. who was dropped by Bridgeport because Manager Simmons took a dislike to him will be with New Haven. Bill Curtiss Jason and the best rated center will also be with the team. That is bunch that cannot be sneezed at and Waterbury will have to step some to defeat them. It will be n battle worth travelling far to see.

Ryan and Kelly at Rochester.

ROCHESTER,, N. r., March 5.-Tom. my Ryan of Syracuse and Hugo Kelly of Chicago went six fast rounds at q bout at the Cottage hotel pavilion at Charlotte last night under the auspices of the Arena Athletic club. Kelly had the advantage of the first two rounds. but Ryan forced the fighting in the third. fourth and fifth. Honors were about even at the windup.
 If Battling Nelson will agree to weigh 133 pounds two hours before getting into the ring and will accept a 75 and 25 per cent division of the purse, it is said he can have an- other fight with Joe Cans and that Tex Rickard of GOldfield will hang up not less than $30,000 for the mill. Cans is the recognized champion lightweight and it is his prerogative to dictate the above terms to the Dane. Nelson, it will be remembered, did the dictating when he made his recent match with Cans and he also imposed so many hardships in the articles regarding the weight that 1t seemed folly for Cans to accept. But even then Nelson was beaten fairly and Cans proved that he was the master in every way. If Nelson therefore, wants to fight the colored man again he will have to yield to the latter's terms. which are on the whole decidedly fair.
 The six round fight between Honey Melody, weltherweight champion and Joe Thomas, who knocked Mel. lody out in eleven rounds last fall before the latter had beaten Joe Wal colt for the title. will probably at tract many New York fight fams to the ringside in Philadelphia next Wednesday night. As there is much i'll feeling between these men it is practically a foregone conclusion that the fight will be cn the level Both are hard hitters, scientific, game and willing. Unless the prophets are wrong it will be case of hur- ricane slugging from the first tap of the gong. By the time they get into the ring the pugilists will pro. bably weigh about 14S pounds, or perhaps more, as they scale at 1i5 at 3 o'clock about six hours before the mill.
