Champ Unable To Take
Morning Stroll
PLAYS Photograph

JERSEY CITY, July (By Asso-
ciated Press) .-'T never felt better
in my life," remarked Jack Dempsey
as he sat down TO a llgn1 breakfast
this morning, consisting of two boiled
eggs and a potato He was accom-
panied by Teddy Hayes, his trainer
He started for a walk, but such a
crowd followed that he was forced to
return to the house.
Hero worshiperss basl-spent most of
the night in the vicinity to get q
glimpse of the defender and to shout
words of encouragement to him when
he made his appearance.
After returning from his brief
walk, Dempsey amused himself by
playing jazz records on a talking
machine.
The champion did not let the COM
ing bout affect his appetite. When
the call came for dinner, Jack was
the first among those present" He
ate generous portions of steak, po-
tatoes, string beans and toast, and
wound up with a large pot of tea.
He then stole away for an hours
nap before getting ready to go to the
ringside.
At / p. m. the crowd around the
house where Dempsey was stopping
was so great that mounted police were
called out. Several thousand per.
sons were then waiting to get a
glimpse of the American defender
who was sleeping.
Governor Edwards and his military
staff in full regalia went by the
house on foot on their way to the
arena. Notified that Dempsey was
asleep, they did not stop, but waved
their hands in greeting to the men,
bers of the champions party as they
walked by.
Dempsey left for the arena from
the home of William C. Heppen-
heimer, bank president and million
| aire, where he had spent the night,
| at 2:35 o'clock.
Dempsey was given rousing
| cheer by several thousand persons
as he emerged from the house es-
| corted by Chief of Police Bentley.
| The champ entered an automobile
| and preceded by a squadrol of mo-
torcycle police, he was escorted to
the arena.
Dempsey smiled and waved his
hand il. friendly greeting to the
crowd.

Colored Trustees And
Teachers I'm Session

The colored Trustees and Teach
ers organization of Sumter county
held it's regular session June 80 and
July ] this year at a church IN
East Sumter known as Mt. Creek.
The AZ colored public schools of the
county were very well represented
In some cases, however, both teach
ers and trustees were absent.
Among the questions considered
were the salary of teachers, the COM
pulsory education law and Industrial
draining. The discussion of the COM
pulsory attendance law was led by
the trustees and the consensus OF
opinion was that it was doing much
good. The matter of industrial train
ing was ably presented by County In
dustrial Teacher Rood. She made a
good impression and both teachers
and patrons apparently saw the i'm
portance of cooperating with her IN
this very necessary department OF
education.
The outstanding feature of the con-
vention was the manifest growth in
interest on the part of the county
board Of education by the attendance
of Col. J. E. D. Shipp, Calvin Carter,
president of the board, and Mr. Jor-
dan. Supt. e. W. Dupree and ex-
Superintendent ]. E. McMath were
present also. Interesting and stir
ring addresses were made by all of
them except Mr.. Jordan.
President H. J. Martin, who for
forty-nine years has taught in this
county, made very timely annual
address. Talks were also made by
Profs. G. w. Phillips and W. L. Lit.
Teton.
The incumbents in office were
elected for another year.

NARROW ESCAPE FOR
 RAILROAD EMPLOYEES
Engine Rams Caboose on C. N. E. Early Tues
 day Morning

Two railroad employees had a narrow escape from serious injury or death early Tuesday morning when the caboose in which they were sleeping was rammed by an engine. The men were Conductor Shelley and Brakeman Joseph Bonee of the local freight out of Canaan. After tying up they went to sleep, one in the eupalo and the other on the lower bench, when they were thrown to the hoor and more or less bruised and cut from flying glass, as they were rammed by the engine of the roustabout freight in charge of Con- ductor Smith and Engineer Skinner. I. Dr. J. G. Adam was called to at tend to the injured men and after examining them and dressing their wounds found no bones broken. Whether or not they have internal injuries is not yet known. It is cer- tain that the only thing which saved the lives of both men is due to the fact that the .caboose was of modern steel construction, not of wood of which older ones were made.
 As near as can be learned the accident happened when the engine was about to shunt the caboose onto the siding. Instead of throwing the switch after the engine had safely passed, it was thrown ahead of the engine, resulting in the accident. Little damage was done to the rolling stock which cannot be repaired in 6 short space of time. .-.
 It is reported that the man who threw the switch was called to Dan bury by the superintendent of this division to explain how the accident happened.
