Unusual interest Is being shown this
year in the Indianapolis night schools
for colored people. II. S. Gruver, as
sistant superintendent, Is placing spe-
cial emphasis on having the evening
schools meet the needs of the various
communities in which they are located.
The directors are w. A. Hacker, head
of the attendance department, and A.
S. Hurrell, head of the vocational
work of the city schools. The courses
in the schools depend on the demands
for certain work. Glasses are offered
in all academic subjects, with special
classes for those who have completed
public school work, and desire to en-
ter the civil service, and in plain sew
ing, dressmaking, cooking, millinery,
embroidery and crocheting, cleaning,
pressing, repairing and tailoring for
men and women, shoe repairing, cleo
trical work, carpentry and cabinet
making. The original idea of the night
school was to decrease illiteracy, and
this object has not been lost sight of
in the present demand for industrial
education. Illiteracy among colored
people in Indianapolis is perhaps
greater than in many northern cities,
because the central location of the

Death continues to exact Its heavy
toll among Alabama's Negro popula-
ton, while the black race at the same
time is less prolific than the white
population of the state, according to
statistics for September, published by
the state board of health. However,
the Negro race cannot be counted as
dying out, as the birth rate exceeds
the death rate nearly 8 per cent. For
the month of September there were
reported 4,703 births. OF these 3,O9S
were white and 1918 colored. The
total birth rate of the month was 24.3
per 1000 of population. The white
birth rate was 27.1 and the colored
20.4.. There were 2,119 deaths report
ed. OF these 1,0S6 were white and
1,033 were colored. The total death
rate was 100. The white death rate
was 9.5 and the colored was 12.7.

But the moment you try you know
you lose your nerve, Joe, dear. Every
newspaper said Franks really won on
points in that last match with you.
And yet you could have knocked
Franks out in one round if"
eff could get my nerve!" sighed
Joe.
But he would not give up his hopes.
The sight of the baby spurred him on.
Bent was coming to town in three
months time. Could he fight Bent
and win the thousand. Could he
stand up six rounds with the sight of
that jeering face above him as he
leaned, battered, against the ropes?"
And Joe prayed, and in his heart he
registered a determination, which he
did not confide to Molly.
Joe, you're never going to grow
a mustache" she exclaimed, as her
husbands face became more and
more bristly.
You watch me, MoIlyp' he told
her And a few days later, unable to
contain himself any longer, Joe told
her.
Molly wrinkled' her brows thought
fully. You know, it wouldn't be
splendid" she said. But they'll
know you, even with your mus

''And you think you can really

The dream of the five thousand
stirred secretly in Joe's heart, but,
like a practical man, he had put it
away. eff Bent doesn't recognize
me-" he replied.
He put the thought of Bent's face

spectators.
1t was a breathless time for Mol
ly, and she clenched her hands in
fury as Bent stepped into the ring.
"One thousand dollars for any gent

The local champion came into the
ring. He squared up to Bent, who
grinned and Knocked him. The cham
pion's blows fell like thistledown
upon Bent's body. With few sec
onds to spare Bent put all his force
into a highlander. The local
champion dropped like log. The
manager and his friends carried out
the limp body.
''Mr. Joseph Sonally!" announced
the manager.
And Molly saw Joe step into the
ring. She watched Bent's face, hold
ing her breath with apprehension.
But Bent did not know Joe. He
PLAYED with him, not knowing Joe
was playing, in his turn. Presently
the champions fist shot forward. Joe
turned his head and the force fell
upon air. And as Bent lurched and
swayed Joes fist went hard into his
mouth. Bent went to the ground.
A roar went up from the spectators
as Bent at his seconds knees, grim

G. A. Ewing was elected as one jus.

other place was between B. WI Brown
and E. A. Crossett. Since browns

county attorney that the board can not

SELLS $50 WILSON
BET FOR DOLLAR

Iowa Falls. Nov 1S.-Winning $50
on Wilson and then losing 1t on the
early election returns was one Of the
interesting developments of post-elec-
ton days in this city. A well known
young man had bet $50 on general re-
suits. About midnight of election day
things looked pretty blue for the head
Of the democratic ticket and the young
man remarked he would sell out for 81.
A prominent business man thought the
proposition looked like a good one and
took over the apparently forfeited
wagers. The next morning the scenes
were shifted and the DDS of 80 to I
played the night before looked mighty
good to the man who had invested his
dollar in lost cause.
