Arrange For
Wrestling Match

What prOmies to be one of the
best wrestling matches held here
in a long time has been arranged
for Monday night, May IS, at the
Eagle Hall. Guy Samson, one Of
the best, if not the best, man in
the country at i45 pounds, will
wrestle Dave Burns of Spokane,
P. N. A. i45 ID. champion of the
United States.
Samson has located here and
intends TO make st. Maries his
future home. 1t is his intention
to revive the wrestling game in
this city and with this end in view
he is in communication with the
best t45 10. wrestlers in this sec
ton and will stage matches in
the near future. He is now in
communication with men like Ge-
SEX Of Spokane and O'Connoll of
Seattle, and others of like cali
Der, who are known throughout
the country as among the best at
their weight.
Samson has an impressive
string of victories to his credit
and is said to be wonderfully
speedy and clever on the mat. He
has to his credit one victory over
Burns, which, however, occurred
before the latter won the p. n. A
championship at San Francisco
The match should be much taste
than any that have been stages
here heretofore and should draV
a good crowd.

Big Break In
st. MarieS Dyke
200 FEET OF DYKE IS CRUSHED IN
Lumber Yard Flooded and Planning Mill Forced
To Close Down

The st. Maries Lumber COM
panys dyke broke last night and
the lumber yards are covered with
water. The water is about three
feet deep in the yards and is into
the planning mill, forcing it to shut
down. The saw mill is still run
ming and will continue to be Op-
Grated unless the water gets in
to the engine room or gets so
deep over the tracks in the yard
that the lumber cannot he taken
from the mill.
The break in the dyke is not on
the river front but is on the west
side along the canal and about
half way between the river and
the hill. The dyke there is built
through a low marshy place, the
soil being black muck and decayed
grass roots. The marsh on the
outside Of the dyke was covered
with water several feet deep and
although it had not reached the
top of the dyke the pressure was
more than the dyke could stand
and about two hundred feet of it
vas moved bodily off its founda-
ion and forced in.
The water in the st. Joe river
has been raising steadily for the
past few days and has now
reached the highest point of this
year.

Pa7ent-TeaCher Assn.
Elects Officers

The last meeting Of the Parent
Teacher association for the pres
ent schol year was held in the
High School Auditorium last Fri
day evening. The meeting was
not largely attended but it was no
less important than others that
were held previously have been.
It's importance lay in the fact that
the principal business of the
evening was the election of Of
flcers for the coming year. The
officers elected we're the same as
those who have held the Offices for
this year. They are as follows:
William Tueman, President; c.. f.
.HOfstetter, Vice President; Mrs.
w. f. Clarke, Secretary; and 1. L.
Hemingway, Treasurer. The
president, Mr.. Trueman, did not
make his appointments Of the
members of the two important
committees, the one on programs
and the other on publicity. Those
appointments will be made in suf-
ficient time to get the work we'll
under way by the time of the first
meeting next year.
No program had been arranged
for the meeting because it was the
purpose Of those in charge to give
an opportunity for open discus
sion on any subject relating to
school welfare. Short talks were
made by the president, by Dr.. w
f Clarke, President of the Board
of Education; Rev. A. Monroe
A. P. Bunt, Miss Helen Nesbitt
Mrs. w. f. Clarke, and by Sup;
f E. Lukens. Great hope Of the
good possibilities Of the Parent
Teacher association for nexi
year were expressed. On the
whole it seems that this Organi-
zation has been productive OF Z
much greater feeling of unity il
the interests of the public schools
OF our city.
