. AID GIVEN WEAK SCHOOLS.
Since the first of the month State
/ Superintendent of Education Swear
ingen has paid out over $4,000 to the
weak schools of the State making ap'
plication of the fund appropriated
by the Legislature for that pur'
pose. Approximately $1,000 was
paid during the spring. The Leg
islatr,re appropriated $4,000 for
aid to the Weak schools Of the State,
and there is only about $4,000 of
this left for distribution. There are
applications for over $500 in the
office of Mr. Swearlngen to be acted
upon. The amounts paid out range
from $40 to $10O to each school.
The counties in which the most
mone- been distributed are:
Horny ,aluds, Laurens and Plckens.
The amount appropriated by the
Legislature annually for tie weak
schools of the State Is very small,
and It's the hope of many that the
appropriation will be increased to at
least $4,000 at the next session of
the Legislature. This would mean a
great improvement in the schools. A
resolution favoring the increase of
the appropriation was passed at the
conference of the county superlntend-
ents of education held in Spartan
burg several weeks ago, and also at
meeting of the school trustees OF
Spartanburg county.

fering from heart trouble. He

would die. You advised DR..
Miles Heart Remedy and Re-

advised, and improvement was
apparent from the very first. He
recovered and the Conference in

never felt better, although he
has very heavy work and does
a great deal of CO 7p meeting

LITTLE STORIES
OF THE STREET

The ingenuity of the small mer-
chant is proverbial, but scarcely
ever taxed to such an extent as in
one particular instance at the ex-
position last Saturday. The block
leading to the main gates at the
A.-Y.-P. Is Uttered with stands of
these small merchants, and every
thing in the line of souvenirs,
lunches and soft drinks is on sale.
One particularly energetic individ-
ual is the proprietor of three of
these stands in a row. He sells
souvenirs, dishes out lemonade,
and offers hot dogs" at a nickel
a piece.
Last Saturday was children's
day at the exposition, and one
sharp little lad came up to the
"hot dog stand and called for
a "St. Bernard" He had been
gone but a few seconds, before
he returned and started complain
ing because his dog" had a
spike in 1t. Immediately the
stand was blockaded by dozens of
youngsters, and the standkeeper's
business was seriously threatened
for moment or two. But only
for a moment or two, for a bee
oo-tiful idea struck the versatile
standkeeper.
you lucky boy" he exclaimed
to the complaining lad, and his
face beamed ever so radiantly.
You won a couvenir cane. I put
spikes in ON purpose in some of
the dogs and whoever gets one
of those is entitled to a cane,
and another dog"
The boy gleefully accepted the
prize, while the "hot dog" vendor
Immediately proceeded to dis
pense with an unprecedented de-
mand for his wares and merchan-
disc. But, strange to say, none
of the other kids" got one with
spike in 1t.

BY Ringsider.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. IA
One thing that the recent Kauf-
man-Johnson fight in the Mission
arena here demonstrated was that
the Californian cannot yet, if ever,
be reckoned with seriously as a
contender for heavyweight hon.
ors. Another thing demonstrated
was that when Stanley Ketchel
faces the big negro he will be
given the time of his life. The
10-round fight, which showed so
plainly that Johnson is Kaufman
superior in every department of
the game, barring the assets of
youth and courage, which did not
help Kaufman one iota, also re-
vealed the fact that Johnson has
much more in reserve than he was
called upon to turn loose. Had
he had anything on his closely
trimmed sconce it would have
been entirely reasonable to say
that he came out of the fray
without having turned a hair. He
had everything in the book, de-
spite a bit of highness in flesh
and his old tendency of constant
ly waiting for the other fellow to
force and lead, but if he had been
compelled to extend himself, what
would have been the story? This
is where the dopesters on a pos
sible Johnson-J effries fight stub
their toes.
Referee Smith declared after
the battle that Johnson, had he
cared to, could have finished
Kaufman after the first round,
and there are many perfectly will
ing to agree with him. So it is
quite apparent that Johnson, not
in the best of condition, although
capable of giving a young and
trained giant like Kaufman a ter
rifle beating under wraps, has
more than good chance with JEFF
fries, even though the latter
should regain good percentage
of his best form.
AS to Ketchel-well, the Assas-
sin would better wait awhile. If
Johnson can rock a big, strong
fellow like Kaufman with pulled
punches, boy 20 pounds lighter
would have about as much show
as a SNOWFALL on the equator or
some other seaport.

Tacoma horse owners will not
compete In the Vancouver horse
show because of the new tariff
law. On each horse worth less
than 500 it would be necessary
to pay a $50 tax to bring the ami
NAL back. The owners will not
stand It. If the horse was worth
more than $3.50, the duty would
be 25 per cent ad valorum.
Bernice Baker, DIR. Yocum, Don
Shaw and Mrs. Priest were all in-
tending to enter THAR horses in
the show, but will have to stay in
Tacoma owing to the ruling OF
the powers that rule the customs

horses may be taken back and
forth but not horses for a horse
