THE SCHOOL LEVY.

should tho Board Make 1t During h Pres.
n Month?
The opinion has been expressed very gen
orally since the last meeting Of the Board Of
Education that the body made a mistake in
not laying the school levy at said meeting.
We have been asked to quote the loan on
the subject, in obedience to the request,g give
the following from chapter IL of the acts Of
lS72,incorporating the Independent scchool
district Of Wheeling:
ut shall be the duty of the Board Of Ed.
ucation annually, in the month of July, to
determine as nearly as practicable, the
amount Of money necessary, in addition to
all other available funds, to continue the
schools Of the district for a period of not
less than nine months and for other pur.
poses relating to the schools OF the district,
such as the repairing and improvement OF
school premises, the purchase Of sites and
the building of school houses, the pay
ment Of debts previously contracted which
which may fall due within the year and said
Board shall cause the amount to be levied
on all the taxable property of the district as
assessed for city taxation"
A gentleman said to q REGISTER reporter
last evening that the Board should lose no
time in meeting and making the levy, as il
it were allowed to 90 over beyond the month
It might cause serious trouble, in case any.
one would object to paying the tax, on the
claim that it was not legally assessed.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
Serious Explosion Of Coal OIL a
+, the jaiI. 81 Is
The Building Fired and a Female Inmate
Badly Burned---How the Mis-
Is hap Occurred.

Last evening about Sis Q loud explosion
was heard in the vicinity Of the jail, which
sounded q great deal like the report of a
n The next instant an alarm Of FIRE
was sent in from box No. 81, at the Caths-
dral. The engines were promptly o n hand,
the Hope reel being the first TO
REACH TIE SCENE
and make an attachment. The trouble
originated as follows:
1t seems that Mary Howley. who was on
Tuesday, the l4th inst, sent to jail for her
appearance at the next term of court, by
Justice Phillips, for obtaining two Jerseys
from J. s. Rhodes & Co. under false pre-
lenses, has been helping in the work about
the Jail. About the time mentioned she
was in the kitchen, and thinking that the
FIRE was out in one of the stoves. she hunted
up a large oil can, which contained proba-
bfy four or FIVE gallons, and began pouring
it upon the apparently dead Goals in the
stove.
In an instant
STREAK oF FLAME
shot I'D to the mouth OF the can and q ter.
rife explosion occurred. The burning oil
was spread all over the girls clothes and
promiscuously around the room, setting fire
to various parts Of the wood work. En-.
yeloped in q sheet of flame the poor girl
ran screaming for the yard, but was inter.
cepted by q gentleman who arrived upon
the scene at that moment, and prevented
her from going into the air.
Hearing what was wrong Jailor Nichols
seized q heavy bed quilt and rushed to the
spot enveloping the form Of the young lady
| and s~mothering the flames. She wa then
carried to an up stairs room and DR.. Hoge
called. The girl was found to be
NOT SERIOUSLY BURNED,
the most serious being from her waist mp to
her shoulders on her back. This was caus
ed by her turning around just as the explo'
sion occurred. The injuries are not seri,
GUS, but very painful, and it will be several
weeks before she will be able 10 get around.
The explosion was q terrible one, nearly
every window in the Kitchen being shattered
by the conclusion. The girl was thrown
against a table, the stove was broken, as
was also the ceiling OF the room, besides a
good deal of crockery and tinwsre de.
stroyed. A. serious FIRE was prevented by
the timely arrival Of the reel, and before the
flames could
GAIN ANY HEADwAY
they were extinguished. The young lady
stated last night that this was the first time
she ever tried that way of starting a fire,
and it is needless to say that it will be the
asst time. 1t is indeed fortunate that her
lesson did not cost her dearer.

West Virginia Railways,

West Virginia Railways,
Governor Wilson, Auditor Duffy and
State Superintendent of Schools Morgan,
arrived in the city yesterday afternoon, be.
ing members Of the State Board of Public
Works and out on the usual tour Of the
railroads of the State for the purpose Of sp-
p~raisement. Treasurer Thompson, on &C
coust of ~illness, was not able to make the
trip, which is one of some length. there be-
ing about twenty-five railroads in the State,
and rather scattered. The Board will pro.
coed from here to Psrkersburg over the
Ohio River Road and thence to Grafton
Meeting the Governor last night he was
asked q few questions in regard to the rail.
roads in the state. In answer to q query
he said:
Yes; the Chesapeake & Ohio will be
compelled to pay the amount of their back
taxes, as there is no other recourse open.
The trouble with railroads in this Stats is
that they want to run the State and things
to suit themselves. A bill ought to be pass
ed in the Legislature preventing any rail
road from carrying goods for q long distance
for less charges than q short distance. As
long 81 such q thing continues it viii hurt
the interests of the country, and especially
West Virginia. The railroads are a good
thing, but they need a good deal of restric.
ton placed upon them"
