DESPERATE NEGRO KILLED.
First Slabs Policeman and Boasts
He Will Not Be Arrested.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, September :.
Ed Renshaw. a negro desperate, was
killed by V. T. Davis, a policeman, here
last night. Renshaw had boasted ten
minutes before that he would never be
arrested alive by a policeman; that either
he or the officer must die. The officer
was attempting to arrest him for as
saulting his wife. The negro drew a
knife suddenly and stabbed the officer
four times before shot was fired. With
astonishing daring the negro kept adj
vancing on the officer, and each of the
four shots fired struck him in front. A
verdict OF self-defense for Davis was
rendered by the coroner's jury.

THE ROOSEVELT THAT | KNEW.
CB.' Mike Donovan)

CB- Mike Donovan)
 Where President Roosevelt gets the aggressive fighting enthusiasm that gets him into more fights than any president to date-and carries him through them-is shown pretty well in Mike" Donovan's book of reminis- cences. The Roosevelt That 1 Knew"
 Mike" Donovan is the grand old man" of boxing in this country, former middleweight champion of the United States, and for many years instructor in boxing and general sporting mentor of the New York Athletic club. Both as an old personal friend and as box CT by appointment" to the president. he has collected in this book a fund of anecdotes which portray a new and very human side of Roosevelt the man.
 His acquaintance with Roosevelt dates back to the latter's New York city days: and while the latter was governor. Donovan was often called to Albany for a bout. And when Roose- welt went to Washington. he did not let the acquaintance lapse.
 "On the evening of March 3, 1904" says Donovan, the day before the in auguration, between and o'clock, the president and had a 'go'- some ten rounds. He was as happy as a schoolboy as he stripped for the fray.
 After the inauguration tomorrow he said, I go out to the Rockies on a hunt for four or five weeks and live the simple life
 He loves the western mountaineers and plainsmen. Now. Mike he said, we must have a good, long bout this evening. It'll brighten me up for to- morrow, which will be trying day
 We boxed ten hard, long rounds. He had improved so much in his prac- tice with me that winter that l had to resort to all the strategy that my experience had taught me. After the fifth round, I felt like calling a halt, but did not want to appear to be a quitter. We were having 1t hot and heavy; in an exchange I tried to land a right-hand body blow. ducking to avoid a left-hand counter Instead, he struck ne a flush right-hander on the top of the head, knocking me sprawl ing to the mat The blow jared me quite a bit. As I got to my feet, he said:
 That's a good make believe knock down. Mike Evidently he did not realize how hard he hit me.
 "'Mr. President I rejoined, would not let even you knock me down if could help it. 1 felt a bit nettled. We started in again, hammer and tongs, and I kept a sharp lookout for his clever play with the left and fol- low with the right"
 As might be expected. the president is neither careful nor sl1illful boxer, but he is there all the time and takes punishment like 8. Trojan.
 The major and hardly less inter esting portion of the book consists of personal "reminiscences of such ring giants as Sullivan. Corbett and F1tz- simmons, but it is the introductory chapter on the president that the gen eral public is most interested in.

The failure of current methods of municipal financing has seldom had a

The finance committee of the city council has just made the interesting discovery that the municipal expenditures for the coming year will exceed the mu- nicipal revenue by nearly two million dollars. In other words, the city of Chicago is broke" and it is up to the aldermen to find a way out of the difficulty, either by increasing the rev enue or by cutting down the expedi-, lures. As the city has now reached the limit of the bonded indebtedness per mitted under its charter. the only prac- tical alternative this year will be a reduction of pay rolls and expenses by lump sum equal to the total com bined cost of several of the most inn portant city departments. No such drastic action as the abandonment of any department is. of course. contem- plated. but the cutting of the estimates by an item of s10.OOO here and another of S100.000 there will result in the se- rious crippling of many lines Of mu- nicipal work. Health Commissioner Evans. for example. has been told that he must cut off s1OO.OOO from the amount needed by the health depart ment, while the reduction in the build ing department by the discharge of twenty-four inspectors will seriously hamper the enforcement of the build ing laws.

 CTS in the statement attributed to him,
 Women teachers have Q tendency to cause too much effeminacy among boys has started anew the intending controversy regarding men and women teachers. At the convention of super intendents of the National Education association here, during which the s10.000 race to Michigan City, Ind, and return was run. discussion of this was lively and favored feminine rule. all though the superintendents were most ly men. State Superintendent Blair of Illinois disputed Dr. O'Shea's state ment that too many women teachers were undermining the boyishness of the American boy. Women in the school room exercise a refining in- fluence," he contended. The dispute has been taken up hotly. with the women teachers, of course. in solid phalanX against the declaration charG- ed to Dr. O'Shea's account. It is sol emnly affirmed that he said: There is not enough of the rough and. tumble spirit in the school boys life today. There should be more muscularity and less of the softening influence" The answer of Illinois by the voice of her state superintendent was this: "A boy is a boy and always will retain -his natural proclivities. As superintendent of the schools of Illinois I have had ample opportunities to study the ques- tion, and I must say the more 1 scru- tinize it the more convinced am I of the respect a woman teacher inspires in her male pupil and the wholesome influences she diffuses."

Another advance in the cost of liv- ing. which has already reached the highest figure in the history of the country, will be decreed shortly by western merchants as the result of action taken at secret meeting in Chicago at which retailers of all the leading commodities were represented. Tea and coffee, sugar. household fur niture and certain lines of dry goods will be the first staples to feel the ad- vance. Other increases are. scheduled 10 tane place later when the success of the first advance has been assured. The only ray of encouragement to the consumer was the announcement that the price of eggs may at last be cut in number of states, following re- newed activity on the part of the American hen. The conference at which the raise in prices was agreed upon was the first of series of meet ings, it is understood, at which such matters will be consi tered but so great was the atmosphere of mystery maintained by those who attended that no definite facts could be ascertained regarding the membership and future intentions of the association. We are all pledged to secrecy as to details. % said one member "as this was our first meeting and we have not completely outlined our policy. Increased costs have made it necessary for us to de- eide on a general advance on staple goods. but just what lines will be af- fected and what the advance will amount to I cannot tell you" From about lS97 until the panic a year ago the cost of living steadily mounted year by year, with the exception of 1901, when prices of staple commodi- ties were trifle lower than the year before. The panic made some differ ence in values, but did not bring about a complete readjustment and today the cost of living. according to the best government estimates. is between .30 and 40 per cent higher than it was twelve years ago.
