CALGARY, Alta, May "A. - The death of Luther McCarty, the heavy weight prize fighter, today was dra- matic in the extreme. There were seven thousand spectators in the great arena when the end came in the first round. They saw Pelkey deliver McCarty the vicious blow, and saw the favorite in the contest slow ly collapse, and watched him counted out with amazement. The end was so sudden and so unexpected, that it was hard to realize that the big fighter was so near death. Physicians la bored over the prostrate man for 35 minutes before he breathed his last.

ed them with his hand full OF bills.

ed on with the impression that he
was insane.
Evan Arthur met the young man
near the News corner, and was Of.

vored to talk to the young man, but
on learning that he could speak no
English, conducted rim to the cham.

who speaks Japanese. Mr.. Ensign
could not be found and then Alma
Taylor was called up on the tele-

him and he was asked to speak with
the young man over the telephone.
Meanwhile d. l.. Collett, secretary

Mr., Ensign in the chamber of com.
merce building, had taken the roll
OF money, counted it, and straight.
ening out the bills, placed them in
an envelope, which he sealed and
put in drawer, with the intention
of preventing the young man from
losing it on the street.
After a moments talk with the
Japanese Mr.. Taylor learned that
following an Oriental custom, the
young man was merely showing his
money to people as an indication
that he would give it to whoever
would find him bride--a white girl
he specified. He was accompanied to
the home Of Mr.. Taylor who wished
to explain American customs to him
and to advise him concerning the
preservation Of his money. On en-
tering the Taylor home he drew from
his pocket another roll( containing
likewise IL $40 bills which he ex-
planned was for the young lady whom
the recipient of the other roll should
find for him. Mr.. Taylor talked with
the young man, took the $3.50 90
brought to him and that left with
Mr.. Collett, and put the $500 in
local bank to the credit OF the ad-
venturer, who was then conducted
to the Japanese quarters OF the city

surprising declaration was given by a
little maid in one OF Miss Clara Town
sends room before she became princi-
pal OF the James school.
Among the special favors coveted
by the youngsters is the permission
to stay behind after school and clean
the blackboards. One evening a little
girl was given the desired privilege.
and while engaged in the task she
struck up a shy sort OF conversation
with Miss Townsend. Finally the
usual confession was made.

a teacher" she announced.

Townsend And why do you want
to be a teacher"
"Well.'' was the rather surprising
answer. "Tll have to be either a

II is learned that a number Of new

OF Robert Louis Stevenson have been
discovered in Samoa and in Honolulu

novelist. who has been for some time
In both Hawaii and Samoa seeking
such writings Of the famous Scotsman
as might possibly be found In the pos
session of some OF the many friends
of Stevenson during his years In the

The result OF this research has been
the finding OF ~ essAy. said to be
highly poeticai in character, written
by the novelist after witnessing q vol
icano in action. supposedly either the
famed crater Of Savaii or the pit Of
kilauea in Hawaii; q piece Of fiction
dealing with South Sea life, and q
number Of smaller verse compositions.
Still another manuscript, q blank
verse relation OF a wsll-known legend
OF Maui. of considerable length. but
unfinished. has also come to light. and
the enthusiastic admirsr OF Stevenson
feels highly rewarded for his month
