work have been very painstaking In
their endeayors 10 stimulate the
right spirit in the stuentds
There were twelve numbers on the
program. the first one being n Gales
thenlc drill by the boys. The second
was an exhibition Of vaultlng. This
was very interesting to such as had
never seen that style Of work, and
the various ways Ct going over the
wooden horse was amusing. scarce
ly any two using the same form In
getting over
The third part Of the program in
PRODUCED the female members In
the Irish Jig This was very
prettlly done and they were enthus-
lastlcally received by those present.
Miss Ruth Perkins has made the
girls gym class a part Of her work
and the results very plainly show
that she has put lots OF time and
more patience In her work.
The fourth number was the high
jumping By the boys The top
mark was set by William Wilson,fol-
lowed by Derwin and Bennett. Will

In the eighth number the boys
We're allowed 10 show off their spec
al stunts. and probably that
which was the most interesting was
the diving over a horizontal bar be-
tween four and five feet in height

hands generally and on his face

this part of the program an exhibl-
ton OF starting was made, followed
by the Highland Fling" danced by
five OF the girls, the Misses Nc

danced nicely and We're roundly
applandcd for their clever work

event was won by Noble Shaw, the
second by Jesse Harrington and
the third by Ralph Fleming The
final was won by Fleming. The
events closed with an exhibition Of

were led by Philip Towsley In all
their team work.
After the exercises were over Prln
cipal James Brooks made few APP
propriate remarks, incidentally touch
ing on the soon-to-b e-commenced
gymnasium At the close Of his re-
marks. he presented, on behalf OF
few interested persons, a fine knife
to Ralph Fleming as having done
the best work, Rutherford Stone re-
ceiving honorable mention. The
basis of figuring was on attendance,
department and improvement. Those
of the class with no absences for
the year were Messrs. Perkins and

TROUBLE in DINING ROOM
Little Mixup Between Ladies Accepted
PhilosophiealIy by the Torpid
willie Landlord.


AT one time yesterday it looked
like we was going to have little
trouble here in the dining room. but it
didn't come to nothin' much" related
the landlord of the Torpidville tavern.
Maxine and Sylphie, the young ladies
that are waitin' table, got to SQUAD
bin about a pint of etiquette, or the
merits of their respective fellers, or
something hathaway, as ladies is
everlastinly dom, and Sylphie, / reck-
on it was told Maxine, or mebby Max
Inc told Sylphie anyhow, one told the
other that she wasn't no better than
she ort to be. And Maxine, or
Sylphie, whichever it was. got sorter
fussy about it and answered that she
was too, and she didn't care who knew
1t! And then they kind O. tied in on
each other and went round and round
as it were, and it took 'em quite a
while after it was over to wash the
ketchup and broken glass out of their
Golfers, as they call their hair. But
that's all it amounted to-, and there's
no use in firm 'em, for ladies will be
ladies and there amt no help for it,

Lisbon, rtugal-Special: The IA
nous dagger Of the Dukes of Bra
ganza, long coveted by wealthy Amer
lean collectors, has been returned to
the state as mysteriously as it disap-
peared from the royal palace of Ne
cessidades on the hight of october 4.
1910, when King Manuel fled from his
castle to find refuge on British shores
The weapon, studded with precious
stones and bearing Craftsmanship at
tributed to Benventuto Cellini, is est1-
mated to be worth $4,000. Many for
eigners have sought to purchase 1t, ro-
mantle tales associated with the blado
having added historic worth to it'll
intrinsic value.
At. the time of the revolution the re-
publican leaders visited the deserted
palace and took possession of all the
jewels and works Of art that the royal
family had left behind. The dagger
and some other valuables failed, how
ever, to find their way into the hands
of the new authorities.
Some time ago the government de-
cided that all the furniture. jewels and
other property seized at the palaces.

and the old inventory books of the
BraganZa family are being examined
to separate what belongs rightfully to
the royal family from what is consid-
cred as the property of the republic.
Recently the dagger was secretly
placed in the letter box of the Of
fetal who is conducting the inventory.
There was nothing to indicate by
whom it had been restored.
Brigand Chief Dead.
The notorious Spanish brigand chief,
Gaspar Cazalla, whom the government
has relentlessly pursued for two years,
is dead with his own dagger in his
breast.
He died with his back to the wall
fighting bravely to the last and sur
rendering to death only after he had
seen his whole band wiped out. Five
Of his followers had been killed, IL
rendered helpless from wounds and IA
made prisoners.
Cazalla, ruthless robber and a men,
ace to society generally, had won q
certain .renown because of his physical
prowess and unquestioned courage
Recently he operated in the district OF
Elvas, where he was surprised in his
L mountain retreat by a strong military
force reinforced by many armed peas
ants.
In the fight that followed four sol;
dlers and two peasants We're killed and
10 others of the attacking force were
more or less seriously wounded.
When all of the brigands except the
chief had been killed or overpowered
Cazalla, a perfect giant, clubbing his
rifle, broke through the ring of sol.
diers and escaped. Holly pursued he
| took refuge in an abandoned windmill
There he held off his assailants unit
when a rush upon him was made
realizing that all hope was gone, the
chief stabbed himself in the heart
dying instantly.
