Proposed Course For
 Rural Schools.
WOVEN FROM BOOK ADDITIONS
Arrangement for First Seven Grades
 by Supt. Gunnels.
Not Mandatory But is Issued as the sussested Adju.tment of New Books For Esch
 Grade.

For the help and convenience of teachers in the rural and elementary schools of the State. Hon. Harry C.. Gunnels, State Superintendent of Ed- ucation, yesterday announced sus- gestive course of study for the first seven grades based upon the recent adoptions of the Textbook Commis- sion.
 The suggestions of Superintendent Gunneis embrace almost bodily the course as mapped out after much la bor by Secretary H. J. Willingham. of the State Board of Teachers Ex- aminers. and Prof. J. Doster. of secon- dary education in the University of Alabama. The assortment and assign ment of the various textbooks which received the final approval of the State ommisslon was made with great care and attention to detail.
 The arrangement of Supt. Gunnels, of course, Is only suggestive, the law not making 1t mandatory on the schools to use 1t. but 1t is believed that the course will meet with general fa- vor by the teachers of the elementary schools. It Is based upon school terms running through at least eight and not more than nine months. It was one of the difficulties to be met by Messrs. WilIingham and Doster in making up the suggestions. this lack of equality in school terms. For this reason there was no limit put upon the time which should be devoted to the context of any single book.
 The suggested course was made to correlate with the High School course, which has been announced already. The proposed seven grade course fol- lows.

THREE HANDED SCRAP
SympaIhizer Thought Boy Was
 Being Abused.

A young man chasing boy along West Main street attracted consid- erable attention shortly after IF o'clock to-day, when many people were on their way home from work. The fugitive and his pursuer were followed by a crowd of boys who urged their companion to go it. But the young man was too speedy for the boy and caught him as the boy stopped, almost exhausted, in the green. The irate pursuer grabbed the urchin and was treating him rather roughly when several men hastened to the boys assistance. Tho first to reach the spot was a MT Mc- Reynolds, who had alighted from car which was standing on siding near the green. He buckled into the young man and foored him in quick style. He then grabbed him by the neck and for a few moments pinned him to the ground. By this time a number of other men had gathered and one of them was about to buckle into MT McReynolds be- cause of the manner in which the latter was putting" into the affair. The newcomer took the part of the young man, who had been annoyed by the boys, and wanted him to go to the police station to make com plaint against his disturbers. He declared it was a nice state of af- fairs if a man could not walk the streets without being annoyed by some fresh boys.

JOHN L. KNOCKED DOWN.
Man With the Wallop Didn't Recog- nize the Champion.

John L. Sullivan, the great and only John L. was not immune from attacks from rough and ready scrap : pers who thought they had a griey- ance against him, as the following story, told by veteran sportsman who knows the Big Fellow well, will attest:
 "One afternoon back in his fight ing days" says the narrator, John was walking along Grand River ave- nue, in Detroit, in company with the manager of the Detroit show house at which John L. was appearing. The big fellow was on the water wagon at the time and was in fine condition.
 They came to a wholesale fruit erer's in front of winch a great lot of barrels of apples were being headed up by a busy lot of fellows. The apples were big, red and juicy and they looked fine to John l..
 Tn passing by barrel, filled to the top, on which nobody was work ing, John L. picked up one of the apples. There didn't appear to be anybody around to whom he could hand any money for the apple, and so with kiddish sort of grin he sank his teeth into the apple and passed on.
 Hey, you, put that apple back, John L heard somebody back of him say, and he turned around to see a chunky chap in overalls facing him belligerently.
 ''The big fellow grinned at the chunky chap, who was man by the name of Frank Cullen.
 Don't take it to heart, young fellow" said John L. digging hand into his change pocket, with the idea of producing coin to pay for the apple.
 Right then John l.. got a clip on the point of the jaw that made him see more stars than he ever saw in one of his regular fights. He went flat to the sidewalk too. He wasn't out, though, and he was, naturally enough, as sore as a butcher as he scrambled to his feet.
 But while the chunky chap was standing over the big fellow, waiting for him to get up, the boss of the store hustled up and said to him: You fathead! Run for your life. Cant you see that man is John L. Sullivan?' Cullen took a close look at Sullivan then, recognizing him just as the big fellow was getting to his feet, beat it down the street and . then into an alley, as if the devil was after him.
 John l.. saw the fun of the situa- tion and stood and laughed. The proprietor of the store took him in and brushed off his overcoat and sent John L. that afternoon the finest barrel of apples he had in the place. But the fellow who had hit Sullivan didn't return to his job until the big fellow had got out of Detroit"

CITY NEWS.

There was no session of the high school to-day as the teachers were visiting other schools in the state. George Dunn, ST, of 45 Center street has returned from St Vincents hospital. N. Y, where he underwent an operation. He is much improved. The funeral of William Alison will be held from his late home on Rail- road Hill street to St Joseph's church at o'clock tomorrow afternoon.

 In the divorce suit of Petronella Cray against James Cray, an order for an additional notice of publica- tion was allowed in the superior court in New Haven to-day. Crays whereabouts is unknown. His wife claims he abandoned her, and on that grounds she claims divorce.
 It is now pretty certain that the man found dead in his room at the Hotel Heinie last night was MT Deery of Oxford. Superintendent Beach learned that a man of that name has been missing from his home in that town for the past four days. Besides this parties who knew him, including the man who went with him to the hotel, have been found and identified the body. The mans family will be here this afternoon.
 The jury in the Samele murder case viewed the scene of the tragedy, Lucia's saloon on Spring street this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. The idea to look over the place came from counsel for the defense to ascertain about some d stances testified to by one of the states witnesses. The saloon was doing a good business when the jury got there, but the cus- toners seemed to divine what was up and gave way to the jurors, eoun- sel and reporters. The whole inter- for was looked over, the back room where some of the witnesses ran when the fight began and after the fatal wound was inflicted. This room is used for bottling beer. The spot where the victim was standing when the onslaught was made on him and the various directions in which the combatants took in their scufiie were viewed and finally the trail from the saloon to the livery stable where Summa, the victim. was taken and first given medical aid.
 The funeral of Mrs Lucy Curtin was held this morning from her late home on East Main street, with mass of requiem at the Immaculate Conception church by the Rev James E.
