teacher of the female department of tho Mt.
Hope public school, with the aid of her pu-
pills and others, gave her patrons the plea.
sure of a May Entertainment on Friday
evening last. Tho entertainment began with
the coronation of Miss Cora Yates, who
wore the houors with becoming grace and
modesty, as "Queen of the May" and in
which the entire school appeared in beauti>
full and almost fairy-like attire, and took
part. This was followed by a series of at
t~ractive tableaux, which protracted the en-
t~ertainment to quite a late hour, the whole
being highly pleasing to the very large as
semblage present. Where all did so well it
is scarcely possible to make an exception, but
if any difference were made, little Miss Net.ie
Beavers was especially praised for the charm.
ing manner in which she acquitted herself
in her part in the coronation of the May
Queen. The decorations of the stage were
really elegant, and appeared to decided ad-
vantage. Miss Fannie was ably assisted on
the occasion by her sister, Mrs. Mary Welsh;
of Maryland, Miss frankie C~raighill, Mr..
McIlhauey, the teacher of the male depsrt-
ment, Capt. II. l.. Hoiskell, Mr. Patterson,
and perhaps others.

gates from Washington and st.
Mary's counties, who declined to vote
for Nh. Heating, are incensed at the
action of the anti Heating delegates
from the Eastern Shore, who did not
present to the convention the names
OF the men for whom they were
pledged. But these delegates say
that when it was apparent that Mr..
Heating had more than three-fourths
OF the convention votes, there was no
use putting up their candidates for
the purpose of having them knocked
down. and that their constituencies
would not have approved such
course. The agitation for the nom :
nation of an Independent candidate
for the cemptrollership does not ap-
pear to be strong enough at present
to justify the belief that anything
will come out of it.-Smday Anaeri-

TheO. L. DIS and the COMPREHENSIVE.

TneU IL. u. anu Cne COMPROMISING.
The anti-ring element in the DEM
ocratic party has not yet become
reconciled to Comptroller Keating's
nomination. They are still discussing
the propriety of placing in the field
an independent candidate, but the
difficulty appears to be how to ac-
complish that end. Some of the
members of the Committee of One
Hundred are very much in earnest
about it, but there are as many op.
posed to such a movement as there
are in its favor. A prominent MEM
Der of the organization states that
all they have to do is to select man
from one of the counties as the
standard bearer. Quite number of
patriotic democrats would be will
ing to run on an Independent ticket
for the comptrollership if they had
the assurance that the Republicans
would endorse such nomination.
But the probabilities are that the
Republicans will do nothing of the
kind. The latter will place in the
field a straightout Republican can
didate for comptroller, and take the
chances of winning the fight with
him. The Old Liners, or. as Mr..
Hodges calls them, the "Real Demo-
Gratis" openly state that they are
satisfied that Comptroller Heating
cannot be elected. They claim that
if there is no other Democratic oppo-
nent in the field, a sufficient number
of Democrats in the city and the
counties will abstain from voting,
and in this way indirectly aid in the
election of his Republican opponent.
If a conservative Republican is nom
mated, they think that the prospects
of his election are very good. The
o. Il. DIS state that they prefer an
anti ring Democrat, if they can get
one ; If 1t is found impossible to OBJ
tain the latter, they would rather see
Republican in the comptroller's
Office than Mr.. Heating, The dele
