o'clock this morning in a wireless dispatch. According to the wireless message Revenue Cutters had been dispatched

from Savannah to the aid of the liner. At that time efforts to learn the details concerning the Apache's trouble were fruitless. The wireless message gave the vessel's passenger list as 20. Up to 9 o'clock the Clyde liner offices in this city had received no word from the Apache. At the offices of

BURY PANIC VICTIMS

Coroner to Investigate Canonsburg Horror Friday. (National News Association CANONSBURG, Pa.. Aug. 29. All business was suspended today while the town mourned and prepared to carry to their last long home this afternoon, seventeen of. the victims of Saturday' night's theater disaster. The undertakers were hard pressed for accommodations and today arranged for extra funeral cars and carriages from nearby towns. The cemeteries where the interments will be made are the Oak Spring, St. Patrick's, Speer Spring and the African Methodist Episcopal. Two victims were buried yesterday afternoon. The announcement that Coroner Hefferman would hold an inquest into the cause of the panic Thursday morning in Washington, Pa., caused such a storm of protest that the program was hastily changed and the inquest will be held in the local council chamber at 9:30 Friday morning.

A SLASHING MATCH WEDNESDAY NiGHF Knockout Brown and Matt Wells, the English Champion, Will Clash. BY MONTY. NEW YORK, Aug. 29. A slashing, red-hot scramble from Btart to finish is looked for when Knockout Brown and Matt Wells, the Englishman, come together with a thud in the ring at Madison Square Garden tomorrow night. It will virtually decide who gets the next crack at Wolgast after the champion battles with McFarland and Freddie Welsh. Wells, the holder of the Lonsdale belt, and wearing the Union Jack of Great Britain around his loins when he fiteps through the ropes, is expected to outweigh his Dutch antagonist by several pounds. Today 1 had a look at the little Englishman in his final training workouts and it certainly appeared an impossibility for him to weigh in at 133 at 4 o'clock, as agreed. There are suspicions that he has not tried to get within the limit.but intends to forfeit the $"i00 weight money, so as to have his strength with him.

Brown always scraps under the 133 mark, as he is better at that figure than with any overweight. K. O. in his training camp at Savin Rock, Conn., is strenuously personified. He has worked for this bout as he has not. worked since the days of preparation for his two battles with Wolgast, in which he had shaded the champion. Kid Alberts, otherwise known as "Jack the Jaw-breaker," a comparative unknown, but a youngster with great hitting power, has been putting Brown through the gaff the last few days and the cross-eyed one has had no chance to go stale. To hear K. 'O. talk, you would think he is going to kill Wells in one round. And vice versa. The Britisher thinks ho will make easy meat of the New York entry. "Brown got the better of Wolgast," said Wells today, "because Ad is no boxer. Against a slugger, Brown is in his element, but believe me, he won't land on me at the rate of one punch a round." That's somewhat the way Brown figures it too, "All I need is to lip over one good smash and the thing is over," he said. "Wells is reputed to have a good whip, but I can stand anything he has and keep on rushing him until I put over one square punch. Then it will be certain for his." However it turns out, it is a sure thing that the future of both men hinges on the result. It will either be themaking of Wells in this country or the passing of Brown.

NOTED EDUCATORS ARE HEARD TODAY AT THE ASSEMBLY

namely, all schools below the college. Mr. Cotton, in brief, stated that while there was really very little the matter with the common schools, that the greatest obstacle to remedying what was the matter as the satisfaction and egotism of the public, which upon every petition for more funds, or for equipment to enlarge the scope of their activities "Why we have a magnificent school system. What more do you want?" "While we have an annual national expenditure of about $300,000,000 for education in this country, it is nothing compared with the annual amounts paid out tor such luxuries as automobiles, tobacco, beer and other unnecessary appendages. We have 24,000,000 school children, and but $3.50 per capita is paid out for education. There are a number of things that could not be advanced as reasons for the detects in our school system, one of which while detrimental, namely, school politics or "pull" which result

ed in the employment of the inefficient j was not vital. Mr. Cotton, to summar-!

ize, stated that the real fault lay in the imperfect preparation the children at-

was encored repeatedly, as was Smith, the trombone soloist. Mr. Holmes, musical director, is a well known writer of music for bands and orchestras, having over two hundred compositions to his credit. Several of these have been included in the program. ,

Stuart a Humorist. If there had been successes before George R. Stuart appeared last evening in a lecture called Is Fun Divine or Devilish?" then Stuart was a howling success.

Stuart has cornered a surprising lot of jokes that are not too old and moth-eaten and if the latter are handed over the Chautauqua footlights in the mixture, what of it. They were funny once and ought to be funny now. Stuart belongs to the Sam Jones order of funny platform men. He says nothing particularly new or startling

but it sounds that way on account of i Milwaukee 62 being twisted round and seen at a new j Toledo 60 ancle. He has the comedian cast of i Louisville 56

features and knows how to accentuate this physical quality. Whether Stuart thinks that fun is divine or devilish it would be hard to

I say. He might have been said to have 'been devilish funny at times. And I sometimes coarse. But if he was the ! latter the laughs were only the louder land longer. It is curious what vulgarities will be handed out over the Chaujtauqua footlights at times and swallowed without a grimace when the ! same brand of humour would be con

Grandma Brown, as she was called for nearly sixty years, was born in North Carolina on Eleventh month, 24, 1810. Her maiden name was Sarah Morris. When she was only tnree months old she with her parents moved by wagon from North Carolina to

0 ! Richmond, Indiana. This was indeed 2 ; a perilous journey as it was just be-

and the country was in an unsettled

condition. She was married to Frederick- Brown First month, 2, 1832, at Richmond, Ind. In 1869, the Brown family moved from Indiana to a farm near Tonganoxie, Kan. Her husband died in 1874. In 1904 she moved to Leavenworth Kan., and has since made her honfb with her son. She was reared a strict Quaker and ever adhered to Friends principals and to the customs ot her generation the wearing of the Quaker bonnet and kerchief. At her one-hundredth anniversary she told in detail her early life as she remembered it. She described how her two sons were drafted into the Confederate Army and how she worked with them to save enough to free them from military service. Sarah Brown was a member of the Friends' meeting at Tonganoxie, Kan., and for many years was an active worker there.
