The CLINE Kiln Club'' is about to
appear in drama. A late number of
the New York Mirror contains the fol.
lowing:
There will be produced at the Detroit
Opera House, 21st of this month, new
four act comedy from the pen of G. B.
Lewis ON. QUAD, of the Detroit Free
Press, entitled The Limekiln Club
1t was written for J. l.. Ashton, of
Detroit, who last season was with the
knights. The play opens ut Brother
Gardeners hut on wash day, which
happens to be his birthday, and a SER
enade is given him by the members of
the club. The second act is paradise
Hail. and shows 4 meeting of the
Limekiln Club, which will be given
mot q mot from the Free Press. At the
close of this act Brother Gardner is
arrested on charge of murder, pre-
ierred by Huckleberry Hawkins, who
is DESTROYS of becoming his son-in law,
but the old man will not hear of such
thing. The third act is a very pathe-
tic picture of Brother Gardner bidding
farewell to his family before going to
prison. Act four is the court room,
where Brother Gardner is acquitted,
while the villain is arrested for forgery.
Mr.. Ashton will play the only i'm
portant white part, Seeker Jackson, 4
ward politician, who wishes to be cleo
ted State Senator, and seeks the COL
ored vote. He has many humorous
speeches, and will not fail to make
creation of one who is a familiar sight
in all cities. The part was written for
Mr.. Ashton, and his friends anticipate
a very brilliant success for him."

NOT A SCHOOLBOY'S LAW.

The School law enacted at the late
session of the legislature, Act 129, APP
pears to be faulty otherwise than on ac-
count of the small clerical error in en-
rollment which deprives the schools
of s249, 500. Mr.. Buck, city attorney
of New Orleans, has been examining
the Act as to its constitutionality, and
reports that he finds it is unconstitu-
tional in many respects. Mr.. Buck
does not say what he purposes doing
with reference to this feature of the
law, but the presumption is he will do
nothing, leaving the matter to the Gov
ernor and his legal adviser.
What the Governors views are and
what course he expects to pursue, we
are not advised, further than we have
seen it stated that it is his opinion an
extra session of the General Assembly
is not necessary to make the law oper-
alive for the full amount of the appro-
priation intended, to-wit, $3.50, 900.
This, however, was before the constit-
utionality of the Act was publicly
1oSo1AOASA3 with 1uCC 1urlncr
embarrass the Executive in seeing the
law executed as was the intention of
its trainers. Should these objections to
its enforcement stand good in con.
science even, nothing remains to be
done but to convoEe a special session
of the legislature, with the grave alter.
native left of suspension Of the public
schools of the State, as we understand
it, for this year and next. The people,
OF course, will gravitate to common
center in opposition to such a result of
blind legislation, and will demand that
their representatives rectify the great
injury done the children of the State
in not providing with certainty for
their education.
